^o those years:
Of lasting friendships with teachers and friends,
Nights of study and days of classes,
Intercollegiate activities on field and floor.
Evenings of delightful entertainment,
Friendly smiles in the halls and about the campus,
Hours of classes, morning walks to school;
While the leaves fell in the autumn,
While the snow laid its mantel in the winter,
While the trees burst and the birds sang in the spring.
To these and all phases of student activity,
To the happiest years in our lives,
Do we offer this book as a reminder,
Of those golden days.

nPHE most cherished memories of college days are of
those events in which we participated as a united
student body. Long after facts have faded, they re-
appear— strengthened by the years. Since it is the stu-
dent activities that make our college and our school
days distinctive, we have featured them in this annual
with the hope that they may be happy reminiscences.
As we struggle on toward a man-made goal, we
sometimes forget that the western world is full of ro-
mance, adventure, and untamed friends who live in
happy oblivion. To bring us into closer relationship
with nature and the charms of the outdoors, wild life
has been selected as an art motif. Greater appreciation
for the lower creatures of creation and worthwhile
thoughts of school life will to an extent measure our
success.

nr'O those who have in any way added to the success
of this 1928 Banyan, do we extend hearty appre-
ciation, especially to the following who are not in our
school, but have made the listed contributions:
Walter J. Wilwerding, artist, an illustration of a
bull moose, and a color picture of a cougar, "Watching
The Trail." This picture was obtained through the
courtesy of the artist and The Federal Schools Inc.
Benson B. Moore, artist and etcher, a dry-point
etching of a cougar.
David Newell, artist and author, an illustration of
a bear,
Kay Russen, artist, an illustration of a deer.
George K. Lewis, artist, a picture of a wild cat.

(_y NE of the great events each year at Brigham Young University is the coming
out of the Banyan. At this time I wish to extend greetings to all who have supported
the Banyan this year. In it we have a permanent record of faces and scenes which
have become dear to all who have been connected with this great school.
This book is a link to connect the friendships of the present with the uncertain
future. In after years we may turn over its pages and have recalled to our mmds
some of the happiest experiences of our lives.
I hope that all will care for this book as a precious possession and that through
it the Spirit of the B. Y. U. may continue to "carry on" in their lives no matter where
their lots may be cast.

REETINGS to the students of the Brigham Young University. We congratulate
you on the opportunity of receiving a college training in the high moral and refined
spiritual atmosphere of this institution.
To you much has been given, of you much will be required. Are you loyal
to the B. Y. U.? Your conduct gives the answer. The good name of the University
IS in your keeping. It is not so much what you know as it is what you do that
will help or hurt your Alma Mater. In this respect your responsibility is incomparably
greater than that borne by students of state-supported institutions. May you not fail
in your duty either to yourselves or to the B. Y. U. Your life here has been pleasant
and profitable, made so, by your industry and the spirit of the School. This spirit
is that of love and service. May you breathe it deeply and keep it with you always.

C ^^ YOUNG MAN said to me, "The B. Y. U. is a good school but it has no
great state behind it." I replied, "No, but it has something behind it greater than
any state. It has the interest of a people with homes in many states, a people whose
destiny is to lead the world."
Decades have passed since the conversation and my belief in the onwardness of
the school has had good soil for growth. The speed of our advancement has exceeded
expectations.
The output of the Brigham Young University is an asset unmeasurable. "Once
a student always an advocate" is said of those who have attended its classes. To be
a member of its student body or of its faculty means to become a Banyan tree trunk,
a live pillar on a growing structure that gets its expansion from the light of revelation
and the soil of science. To become a graduate of the Banyan School is to be equipped
with choice implements of usefulness and filled with a desirable spirit of helpfulness.

COLLEGE OF EDUCATION
People who believe in the importance of
genealogy and ancestry readily concede that the
College of Education has reason to be proud since
its origin goes back to the very beginning of the
Institution.
When the University was founded, it began
its career as the- Church Teacher's College. In
1920 its title was changed to the School of Edu-
cation and in 1921 it evolved into the present
College.
The aim of this department is preparation
for leadership — intellectually and socially. Theo-
retical knowledge is supplemented by practical
experience in the training school, a part of the
division. The work, both elementary and second-
ary, is standard and meets state requirements.
In seven years (1920-1927) the number
graduated from this college increased from ten
to thirty-four.
John C. Swenson, acting Dean during the absence of Dean L. John Nuttall, has managed the affairs of
the college successfully. His knowledge of society and its needs has made his assistance especially valuable
in this field.

COLLEGE OF FINE ARTS
Although Young University has always given
liberal support to cultural phases of education, it
was not until 1926 that a separate college of Fine
Arts was organized.
It is the aim of this division to meet the
demands of those whose interests and talents lead
them into this field. That the department is
succeeding is seen in the steadily increasing en-
rollment. In 1926 — the year of its appearance,
ten students were graduated from the college.
The number increased in 1927 to sixteen and
from the maximum enrollment in 1927-28, the
number receiving degrees is estimated as doubling
the first year's record.
The work of the college has been excellently
directed by Dean Gerrit De Jong, Jr., whose
varied talents and broad experience extended by
foreign travel and study, have proved valuable
assets.

COLLEGE OF COMMERCE AND
BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
Although the College of Commerce and
Business Administration does not rule against
women, it has had a strikingly low number in its
graduating classes. In 1927, the sixth year after
its organization, the department boasted one
feminine graduate.
The growth of this college from ninety-
six students in 1921 to two hundred twenty-seven
in 1927, illustrates conclusively the fact that
students are realizing the obvious advantage of
better training before competing in the specialized
business world.
The College aims to equip the individual for
leadership in finance and industry by giving him
a thorough knowledge of commercial problems
as well as practice in business administration.

EXTENSION DIVISION
"All tlie world — our campus" is the new
slogan adopted by Lowry Nelson, head of the
Brigham Young University Extension Division.
The present aim was definitely implied by
the organizers who, in 1921, instituted the Ex-
tension Division for the purpose of providing
educational and social opportunities for those who
are unable to participate in resident instruction.
Two different groups of individuals are
served by the department: Those who matriculate
in the University and those who are benefited
without formal registration. The latter are
reached by the lecturers and entertainments
fostered by the department and by the package
library which it maintains.
To the individual desiring University credit,
a variety of well-chosen correspondence courses
and extension classes is offered. With the
territory represented by the 750 matriculated individuals stretching from Hawaii to
Islands, it is truly no exaggeration when one says: "The sun never sets on our campus."

SUMMER SCHOOL
A combined education and vacation is of-
fered by Young University Summer School.
Regular classes, although not as numerous
as those scheduled other quarters are varied and
conducted by specialized instructors. The in-
creasing enrollment still permits closer association
and individual instruction not possible in larger
groups.
The campus is so situated as to afford ex-
cellent settings for unique social events, valuable
factors in socialization as well as recreation.
A second term at Aspen Grove is replete
with opportunities for research and field work.
Although his duties as Dean of this depart-
ment were, relatively speaking, assumed recently,
Clawson Y. Cannon is well prepared for his
position. His enthusiasm and interest in his work
wins the admiration of his associates.

T3 ECIPROCAL activity and mutual ambitions have dominated the operations between
■*-^ the student body and the executive organization within it, this year. As a corps
of officers all work conducted during the year has been to the end of a maximum output
in vitalized student activity. In the execution of that ideal all phases of the work were
carefully adjudicated and weighed before launching into operation, in attempting to
appease the interests of all concerned. Fairness and honesty to the trust reposed in leaders
by the student "Demos" has ever been kept paramount, aiming always at a square deal
for all. That has been the task of the year — wherein it has succeeded the honor goes to all,
and where failure has attended the inefficiency of the leaders is, perhaps, accountable.
Not only have the officers sought to give their best for the student body, but the
latter has been just as animated and responsive when called on by the leaders in the
respective projects. Students have been valiant in helping with the programs, public
service bureau work, and other features that have needed support. Surely, no body of
people in the land is more loyal to and cooperative with their leaders than at the
B. Y. U.
A word from the officers: We extend our thanks and appreciation to all with
whom we have worked this year for the support experienced. We are happy with you in
our successes and feel disappointed at the reverses. May we, through this Banyan,
register with you this expression with the hope that its content will be assimilated by all.
As we separate, we bid you adieu and wish to all the most pleasant indulgences an
abundant life affords.

' I 'HE A. W. S., affiliated with the National Organization of College Women Students,
-*- sends its president-elect to the annual National convention. In 1927 the B. Y. U.
delegate was one of five to present a paper.
It is the aim of this organization to help solve problems of college women and to
provide activities which will lead to self-realization. A major aim is that of greater
socialization of the individual which will further unify and democratize the group and
cultivate a sense of responsibility leading to service.
To help the girls come nearer to the ideal of the charming, cultured women, a pro-
gram for the entire year was planned on this theme. Lectures and accompanying demon-
strations were helpful.
The Big Sister movement resulted in numerous lasting and helpful friendships and
was responsible for the outstanding success of the girls' jamboree, dominated by the spirit
of fun and good fellowship.
The retiring officers send greetings to you all, fellow students, and leave with the
sincere desire that this organization will, each year, come nearer to the splendid ideals
for which it stands.

"A PROGRAM A DAY" in 1927-28 established for B. Y. U. Public Service Bureau,
■^^^ a record attainment. The number of entertainments supplied not infrequently
reached ten in one week.
Co-operating with the Extension Division, the Bureau sent performers from Ephraim
to Murray at the request of schools, churches, clubs, socials, and benefits.
In order to practice more efficiently the policy of the Division — a higher type of
performance and as many participants as possible — Henry Taylor, president, selected
three assistants and assigned each a special division. The vocal department was managed
by Audrey Ostlund; readings, by Ruth Clark; and instrumental music by John L. Allen.
The quality of this fearless quartette is evident when one recalls how they subdued
the Friday the 13th jinx with a "real' extemporaneous program.

THE most manifest sign of wisdom is continued cheerfulness." — Hail to the
Solomons of the season, whose wide-awake, sincere, enthusiastic leadership backed
by a united student body awed the opposing warriors before the battle and after the
victory as well as during the actual skirmish.
For the success of the trio, there is no greater proof than the outstanding character
of their complete work since the ability to put over a big job without becoming con-
spicuous is truly a test of greatness. Under their supervision, new songs and yells were
introduced and old cheers revised and modernized so that not meaningless noise but pur-
poseful cheering of a happy, cooperating group was attained.
Clever stunts at vodies, rallies and games were of a high type — carefully planned
and skilfully carried out, their effectiveness heightened by a striking uniform.
For 1927-28, cheering was not limited to athletic fields but support of every school
activity was a conscious aim. Success in anything, whether debating, literature,
dramatics, music, or athletics won the same hearty recognition.
Courtesy to visiting contestants was emphasized — even to the extent of providing
a body of cheerers for the opponents. A good game, not victory at any cost, was the
unspoken slogan.

THE STADIUM SITE
Senior Class Project
PERHAPS the greatest undertaking of the Brigham Young University at present is
the stadium. The movement for the stadium had its beginning in 1923 and since
that time the classes of 1923, 24, 26, 27, and 28 have made stadium construction their
project. The class of '2 8 will probably be the last to make "Stadium" their project.
This year the class is proud of the fact that they paid in a larger project sum than any
previous class.
Nature has been kind to the B. Y. U. in supplying such a wonderful site. The hill
to the east of the field rises abruptly, making a most ideal natural place for the seats to
be arranged in convenient tiers. It is safe to say that there is ample room on this hill
to afford seating accommodations for from eight to ten thousand people.
The work is progressing rapidly at present. The stadium is not a dream. The work
has so far progressed that there is very good reason to hope that the field will be suf-
ficiently completed and the first block of seats installed for use during the coming season,
the fall of '28.

High School
THE inauguration of new events and activities has been the cause of the growth experienced in the
High School this year, '27-'28.
Among the new features of the High School this year was the organization of the new Pep Clubs.
Sweaters were obtained by all members and these clubs greatly increased the enthusiasm for athletics in
the High School. Regular student body assemblies were also added and were sponsored mostly by student
talent.
Social activities increased greatly during this year and many unique parties resulted. Among them
were the Annual Junior Promenade, a Rags and Tatters Ball, the Senior Hop, and regular High School
dances.
The Prom proved to be the main event of the year socially. College Prom decorations were used and
as a special feature of the evening, a Spanish Dance Act was given.
At the Rags and Tatters Party old clothes were in order and cider and doughnuts aided greatly in
keeping up the spirit of the evening. A "Rippin" good time was had by all.
The Hop given by the class of '28 was also one of the most unusual events of the year. Easter features
and decorations were part of the evening's entertainment.
An annual High School Day was instituted this year. The High School was host to the Institution
and sponsored all activities of the day. This is to become an annual event.
One of the features in which the college has co-operated with the High School is the allotment of a
book within the Banyan and space in the "Y" News for High School activities.
The Dramatic Art, Forensic and Athletic Departments have all been enlarged upon this year.
The Annual Competitive Play, "His Best Investment," and several one-act plays have been success-
fully staged by the Dramatic Art Department. Debating, which was inaugurated last year had a success-
ful growth this season.

IF you would be a Glendower, follow the trail of the massive cougar across the field
of 1927-2 8. Each print of the powerful paw has stamped indelibly an outstanding
achievement, an adventure, a lasting friendship.
Like the trick of memory, the tracks may wander, and should the journey become
wearisome, find your favorite dream and rest.

TRACKS
Pacing foot prints indicate a restless cougar, impatient to be off and because they
occur at the first of the school year, it is safe to conclude that they represent Autumn
registration. Aimless wandering from building to building, up and down hill, soon set-
tles into definite, well-trodden paths which echo with steady footsteps and chorused
greetings. You are reminded perhaps of the excellent field for the inventive genius to
make such contributions as the one way road, a rapid method of locomotion, a new salu-
tation to break the monotony of the "hello" that fairly hail upon the weary pedestrian,
but somehow, they need no change now.
The echo dies. A sudden stillness steals over the field, ghastly after the merry
march of the college company. Is the mascot losing pep? Just to ourself we whisper
the dreadful question and sigh with relief and expand with pride when a weathered paper
reminds us that the first issue of the semi-weekly appeared at this time. To read the

publication, comment on it, and rejoice over such an accomplishment are sufficient rea-
sons for a brief delay.
In it we re-read the Frosh formula for correct conduct and sense again the feeling
of concern or excitement that the announcement brought. Police forces soon began
extended sessions and many erring infants were led by the Sophomores before the Senior
Judge where predicted and unheard of punishments were meted out unselfishly. Truly
innocence proved painful bliss.
"Spank, spankety, spank, spank!" From the forlorn Frosh we dance on to the same
accompaniment, but no longer in a minor key, down a path made merry by melody. The
haunting spirit reminds us of the return of the Cougar Quartet, the Spanish Senor and
Senora, and Andy's favorable rating in the state radio contest.

limits of their freedom and assumed too much, even the costume of the upper classmen.
As a result. President Bruce sacrificed his trousers "below cost" at an auction sale. After
a few similar sales, the trial and error method succeeded admirably and corduroy re-
mained the undisputed privilege of the Juniors and Seniors.
In spite of the merriment here is a fossil tear in this quarter's end shale which must

the keeper of the books will not hold it against you at the Judgment Day.

while you rest, Tony dashes past, setting the pace in another cross country run.
Victories seem to be a habit with him.
We marvel that the cougar walked so sedately when he welcomed our national
champ. The recollection of it still causes a thrill of pride. A half-holiday, parade,
program, matinee dance, banquet, were included in Bud's welcome home celebration
which rain didn't upset since the day's hero was entirely at home in water.
And while we are reviewing accomplishments, it is an appropriate time to listen
again to Tarn-Man Nacup, written by a member of our own teaching staff, William F.
Hanson, and to recall the national essay contest and loving cup won by Caroline Eyring.
Surely the memory of association with those who have achieved is priceless.

middle of the election campaign, "Some Girl" appeared and about upset the normal

campus life. The cougar certainly was side-tracked, however the student body recov-

About this time, days not only were numbered, but also designated by distmguished
titles. On Girls' Day, boys had an opportunity to see whether or not their popularity
was mirrored reflection of their own opinion, for women asked and men acquiesced.
Program, banquet, dance and an all girls' play are interesting reminiscences. If you
members of the sterner sex were not duly recognized at this time, perhaps you had your

'Tis not the traditional Honor Day that we find recorded, but a reunion of all

Y" News
IN line with the general progressive program which has been carried out by our worthy President Harris,
the "Y" News began this year with the inauguration of a semi-weekly.
Further consolidating the organs in and pertaining to the institution, the editor, C. Erwin Nelson,
and the general alumni secretary, A. Rex Johnson, came to an agreement whereby the entire fourth page
of each Tuesday issue of the school paper should be devoted entirely to alumni news. Also, it was agreed
that the Alumni secretary should be permitted as much editorial space in the same issue as he desired.
Thus, the circulation of the "Y" News was increased by one thousand copies weekly, and the Alumni
were furnished with a more complete and intimate insight into student activity and progress.
A conservative editorial policy has been followed throughout the year, although the editor has stood
firmly for his convictions, for the students, and for any progressive move or moves for improvement.
The "Y" News has reached a total circulation of 2,431 copies, including the student campus circu-
lation, the advertising list, the Alumni list, the exchange list, and the independent subscribers.
This year the activities of this student body have been read of in the official news organ in Australia,
New Zealand, Mexico, Germany, France, England, Switzerland, Austria, Canada, South Africa, Hawaiian
Islands, Society Islands, Samoan Islands, Brazil, Argentina, more than half of the states of the Union, all
of the counties of Utah but six, and into one-fourth of the homes of Provo city.
The wide circulation is greatly accredited to the missionaries sent out from the school, practically all
of which received the paper.
The paper has been published with dispatch, has paid for itself, and has built up a friendly attitude
toward it in the school.

The Banyan
"T IVE and let live" well illustrates the aim of the 1927-28 Banyan staff. Enjoy to
■■--' the fullest extent the best of life that is within one's reach and then, when has
taken and given freely, record it in a bound volume, that it too, may live and be a glad
reminder of the glorious past.
The year has displayed problems to be solved. Limited finance with which to
achieve an expensive goal has necessitated careful planning. We regret that our ideal has
had to be trimmed to fit a painfully narrow budget, as a result many desired elements
were omitted but more things of greater value remain.
In featuring student activity, it is with the belief that in this manner', every stu-
dent's interest will be served. Less of the conventional contents of an annual are offered,
with an enlarged campus section and a bigger and better Bunyan as special features. The
artists, with a wild-life motif, have attempted to draw us out of our miniature world
into closer sympathy with nature and her children.
Our one aim has been, that through unbounded time, this school j-ear will live as
recorded in 1927-28 Banyan and give to those who finger its pages, life again in B. Y. U.
In this thought, as a group of fellow students who have watched with interest growth
and expansion and preserved the best of the year's activity as we have seen it, we rejoice
and trust that the result of our effort will meet with your approval. If this is so, we
regret nothing — the days of work, nights of concern, hurry and bustle to fill the space
in the alloted time will be happy reminiscences.

Thanks
To further show our gratitude to those who have been of great help to the Banyan this year, we wish
to introduce to the reader some men, several of whom are not in any way connected with our school,
who have been willing to aid with this publication. "The world is our campus," will be readily under-
stood when one sees what we have gathered from all over the United States.
Mr. Walter J. Wilwerding, a famous animal artist of Minneapolis, Minn., has sent us an illustration of
a Bull Moose, which is used as the divisional sheet for the Senior section. Through the aid of The Federal
Schools, Inc., of Minneapolis, and the courtesy of Mr. Wilwerding, we have a wonderful color picture of
a cougar to use as frontispiece. Mr. Wilwerding knows animals, because of a life-long study of them in
their native haunts. From fourteen years of age until twenty, he was an apprentice in a taxidermy, where
he learned animal anatomy, invaluable in his later work as a painter of animls. As he gained knowledge
of animals and their ways, he decided to paint them instead of hunting them as he had been doing for
scientific collections. He has illustrated many magazines and has painted many cover designs. He is at
present on the faculty of the Federal Schools, Inc.
Seeing some of Benson B. Moore's work advertised we wrote him and by way of a reply we received
a wonderful dry-point etching of a cougar which is used opposite the dedication page. Mr. Moore is an
artist and etcher of Washington, D. C, and is famed for his etchings of animals. He is a student of the
Corcoran School of Art, and is a member of numerous art organizations. He was awarded first prize by
the Mississippi Art Association at the Mississippi State Fairs of 1925-1926 for his etchings. His work has
been exhibited in many art exhibits, among them the International Exhibition of Etchings at Florence,
Italy, in 1927.
David Newell, of Fruitland Park, Florida, artist and author, is the very type that fits in well with
our art theme. He sent a pen drawing of a bear which is used as Sophomore divisional sheet. Mr. Newell
is a real out of door man and writes as well as he draws. His book "Cougars and Cowboys" would be of
interest to anyone who loves stories of the real out-of-doors. Through the courtesy of The Century Pub-
lishing Company, the illustration and a copy of the book was sent to the Banyan editor. Mr. Newell is
well known in the writing field for his stories and illustrations.
In a response to an appeal for aid, Kay Russen, artist, of Salt Lake City, made two special illustrations
for the book. One is an illustration of a deer used as divisional sheet for the Junior Class and the other
is a drawing for the dedication page for the Bunyon. Mr. Russon's suggestions and ideas have been very
helpful throughout the year.
The Banyan would be incomplete without the aid of our old friend George K. Lewis, otherwise known
as Georkee. Having the interests of the book at heart, he has aided in every way possible, even though
he is not in school this year. His illustration of a wildcat is used as a divisional sheet for the High School.
A write-up on Professor Eastmond, who contributed a decorative wild life study and many invalu-
able suggestions, will be found elsewhere in the book.
Our photographers, Walter P. Cottam, Homer Wakefield, and Crismon Lewis deserve special men-
tion for their invaluable help.
In our last minute rush we have, Glenn Dickson, De Alton Partridge, Bob Allen to thank for their
efforts in completing sections needed. Glenn has burned much midnight oil to help complete the Bunyon,
while De Alton has helped throughout different parts of the book. Bob completed the debating and "Y"
News writeups.
With special thanks to the business manager, Gordon Crandall, Clarence John, the Banyan staff and
all others, we present this book for your consideration.

Debating
SIXTEEN debating awards were made to successful students in their forensic endeavors
during the season of 1927-28, for participation in nine debates.
An innovation in debating annals took place near the close of the season in the form
of a radio debate between the Brigham Young University and the University of Southern
California.
William B. Henley and Stanley R. Hopper of the California school met Donald P.
Lloyd and Don B. Cluff in a regularly scheduled debate on Thursday night, April 5, on
the question: Resolved: that the results of the recent great World War have tended
toward world peace, and at the conclusion of the debate it was decided that Brigham
Young would meet them again the following Saturday on the question: Resolved, that
the United States should cease to protect by armed force, capital invested in foreign
countries except after formal declaration of war, on which question the visitors were
better prepared.
Through the cooperation of Earl J. Glade of KSL, and H. R. Merrill of the local
institution, an hour was obtained, and a very successful encounter was staged over the
ether, for the first time in the history of the Brigham Young university, and the second
time in the history of the State.
A compliment should be here extended to Don B. Cluff and Glenn Dickson who
were the Young University speakers in the radio debate. They prepared their speeches
after ten o'clock the day of the debate. This was made necessary due to a misunderstand-
ing as to the side of the question, and the undesirability on the part of the other "Y"
debaters to change sides. They were complimented from a good many sources on their
fine performance, despite the haste of preparation.
The financial condition of the department was seriously impaired by the cut from
the deficits of last year, but, generally speaking the season was as successful as it has
usually been.
Upwards of thirty men and fifteen girls tried out during the course of the year,
and much new material was uncovered, and according to the debating council, a very
promising outlook has been developed for next year.
Two contract debates have been arranged in Southern California for next year, with
a possibility of two more. This assures one good trip next year, as has been the policy of
the department.
The debaters this year traveled into Montana and Idaho, but finances curtailed the
extensiveness of the campaign.

Girls' Debating
"DRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY placed second in the state debating this year,
-'-' by virtue of a victory at Logan, and an adverse decision on the local platform in
competition with The University of Utah, January 27.
Considering the fact that there were but three letter debaters in competition this
year, the showing is to be complimented.
The debaters who made the trip to Logan were: Ethel Lowry Handley, captain;
Helen Romney, and Catherine Eyring, and they were accompanied by Elmer Miller, of
the Debating council, and chauffeured by the manager of the department. Very hos-
pitable treatment was reported, which will be referred to again in the Banyan.
The local debaters on the triangle question; Resolved, that the modern system of
installment buying should be condemned, were: Mary Graham, captain, Caroline Eyring,
and Agnes Skinner.
Utah was awarded the decision in this encounter, but the showing was said to be
creditable. Agnes Skinner, a freshman, and Caroline Eyring, a junior, had not before
represented the school in competition.
The only interstate debate during the season was between the University of
Wyoming and Brigham Young, on the question: Resolved, that too many people go to
college. Young University upheld the affirmative, and were represented by Caroline
Eyring and Lynda Randall.
The debate was a no-decision affair, presided over by Dr. Christen Jensen of the
political science department of the local institution.
The visitors reported a very pleasurable impression of the school and of the city and
surroundings.
Perhaps the most unusual feature of the debating season was the awarding of a
twelve-inch silver trophy to Ethel Lowry Handley for four years of participation in
inter-collegiate debating. Ethel is the only student, male or female, to ever accomplish
the feat of debating four years, and the council wishes to compliment her.

Triangles
THE men's triangle debates opened the season for 192 8 on February 3, the same night
as the "Y" Junior prom, which probably accounted for the very poor turnout to the
debate held on our own campus.
The Young debaters were unable to place in the competition, and it might be said
that the triangles was the worst showing made during the entire season.
Don B. Cluff, captain, and Ellsworth ^X'^eaver, a new man from Weber College,
traveled to Salt Lake to debate the negative of the question: Resolved, that the United
States should cease to protect by armed force, American capital invested in foreign
countries, except after formal declaration of war.
The White and Blue was represented in Provo by Glenn Dickson, captain, and Elroy
Nelson. The local debate was presided over by Judge A. B. Morgan, and Theron S.
Parmelee of the University of Utah acted as critic judge.
Elroy had been working on the junior prom, inasmuch as he was president of the
class, and, according to the council, he did unusually well despite his divided interest.
The Salt Lake debate was attended similarly to the local one, according to the debaters
who traveled there.
MONTANA TRIP
The question: Resolved, that the United States should cease to protect by armed
force, American capital invested in foreign countries, except after formal declaration
of war, was chosen to be used on the Montana symposium.
The team selected to make the trip consisted of Elroy Nelson, captain, and DeAlton
Partridge, with Dr. William J. Snow of the debating council to accompany them.
The team was accorded a unanimous decision over the State College of Montana at
Bozeman, in a well-attended and interesting debate.
A contract debate was scheduled with the University of Idaho at Moscow, but they
refused to honor their contract, and so, severed relations with this school.

Men's Debating
' I *HE University of Southern California and the Brigham Young University engaged
-*■ in a debate on the question: "Resolved, that the results of the great world war have
tended toward world peace," on Thursday, April 5, 1928.
Brigham Young University was represented by Don B. Cluff, captain, and Donald
P. Lloyd, who was engaging in his first intercollegiate debate.
City Judge, George S. Bailiff, former student body president of the institution acted
as chairman.
No decision was rendered, but the arguments were said to have clashed in a com-
mendable manner.
The Californian's, William B. Henley and Stanley R. Hopper, expressed appre-
ciation for the hospitality shown them. Mr. Henley is U. S. C. student body president,
and Mr. Hopper was once national oratory champion.
These same men agreed to the arrangement told of in the general write-up, namely,
the radio debate, which idea they approved of heartily.
This debate, as stated was on the "Investments" question, and although the only
decision was rendered by the listeners at large, the splendid caliber of the California men
was recognized by their victory.
Concluding the season, the Brigham Young University met Southwestern, a new
law school of note located in Los Angeles, in a no-decision debate on the question:
"Resolved, that in the United States we are sending too many people to college."
The local school was represented by Harold Candland, captain, and Lowell Johnson,
and the debate was held in College Hall, Monday night, April 23, 1928.
The debate was the best attended of the entire season, and was an unusually fine
exhibition of the forensic arts according to critical witnesses.
Special mention should be made in this space of the faithful work put in on the
various questions by the alternates on the men's debating squads.
They were: Bert Lewis and Vernon Wentz, in the triangle debates; Delbcrt Gro-
berg, with the team which met U. S. C; and Rollo Rich, with the team which met
Southwestern University.
These men were not given any opportunity to participate, but their support was felt
from behind.
For their creditable investigation of the subjects they were each awarded one hour
of college credit as were the men who participated.

Contests and Medal Winners
/""XNE of the most interesting phases of student life in the Brigham Young University and one that
^~^ offers development which can be gained in no other place are the various contests for awards and
medals offered by different organizations and individuals interested in the development of special phases
of student activity.
Other than the three medals awarded each year for oratory, there is the Noble Medal for the most
efficient Home Economics student. This award is given each year to the girl who best qualifies as a stu-
dent of home making in the B. Y. U. Each year the Chamber of Commerce awards a medal to the most
efficient student in the institution. President Heber J. Grant awards a prize each year for the best essay
on some religious subject.
The oratorical contests have always been a major activity at the Brigham Young University, much
Interest has been shown in the contests held during the past year, manv students have participated and
although it is not arranged so everyone can win, yet there still remains for those who lose more than the
medal itself, the effort and experience that accompanies writing, memorizing and presenting an oration
before an audience.
The first contest staged during the year is that for the Rotary Club medal for the best ten minute
oration on Peace. This is a worthy subject and one in which much work can and needs to be done. This
year there were six contestants tried out in the preliminaries which were held before the Public Speaking
Class of Professor Pardee. Two men were selected to present their orations before the student body. They
were Lyndon Dickson and Oswald Pearson. The finals were held during the Fine Art Department pro-
gram and the judges awarded the decision to Mr. Pearson for his oration, "Peace on Earth, Good Will to
Men." Professor Pardoe represented the Rotary Club and presented the medal at the time.
The next speaking contest to demand the attention of orators was the R. R. Irvine medal for the best
economics speech given. Seven participants fixed their eyes on this award and presented their products
before the public speaking class. The class were at a variance as to the best two to be presented to the
student body and it was finally decided that three speeches would be given. All three contestants for this
award showed marked ability in the originality of their orations. Mr. Edward Sibbetts, Mr. Ira Markham
and Mr. DeAlton Partridge displayed their speaking ability before the student body and judges and the
latter saw fit to award the medal to Mr. Partridge; his oration was "The Economics of Time."
The Heber C. Jex medal for the best oration on any theme is one with much tradition in the B. Y. U.
It is one of the oldest contests and hence is one of the most coveted of all awards. Eight contestants vied
for honor and Lazelle Jones and Miss Lacetia Ashby were selected to present their compositions in the
finals. The subjects were "John Milton, Statesman" and "The Fine Art of Loving."
The Mary Wooley medal for the best dramatic reading was a most interesting contest this year.
Several major students of Dramatic Art gave their readings and the audience selected Miss Fern Jude as
the winner.
Miss Edna Shelley was selected this year as the best student in Home Economics in school. Miss
Shelley has an enviable record in this department of school activity and was selected by the faculty for the
Noble medal.
The Heber J. Grant Essay Contest was conducted by the Theology classes of the school and after
deliberating extensively and reading all entrants, the committee decided that Miss Caroline Eyring, of
Pima, Arizona, had prepared the best paper on a religious subject. The subject chosen was "How to get a
testimony of the truth of the Book of A'lormon."
Among the most enticing medals given during the year is that of the Pardoe Wind Instrument Con-
test. This contest furnishes a high type of entertainment and stimulus for music lovers of the school.
Of the several contestants entering this year, Mr. Francis Haycock was selected as the winner and was
awarded this medal.
The special awards hold the interest and anticipation of all the active students. It is this phase of
college that pays most for its effort, the medal winners of the school are its best possibilities.

Music
THE value of music in the life of an individual is receiving universal recognition, increasing with the
growing appreciation of its true worth. No longer is the field open only to professionals or those
whose talents enable them to become skilful performers, but also to individuals who wish to become edu-
cated listeners. Thus the enlarged field includes everyone.
Young University attempts to serve the two groups, the performer and the listener, with well-
equipped music department, excellent classes and efficient instructors. The department is divided into
three divisions — the theoretical, instrumental and vocal.
Theory of music, like grammar, is often slighted, although it is fundamental. It underlies all phases
of music and is necessary to extensive study, but because it does not easily lend itself to public demon-
stration, this phase is slighted and its relative importance unrecognized.
Exceptional work is done in the theory classes that merits favorable comment and praise is due to the
instructors whose progress receives no public notice.
The vocal department — including individual and group instruction has contributed extensively to the
entertainment of the student body and patrons. Musical numbers furnished by choruses and soloists have
added to the worth-while nature of devotional exercises and entertainments of various types. Chorus,
glee clubs, quartets, trios, all have done praiseworthy work.
Private instruction offered by the division grows rapidly in popularity. Through the co-operation
of the various teachers, public recitals have been given, each of high merit — excellent opportunity for the
development of the individual, as well as entertainment for the audience. The relative frequency of the
appearances has illustrated the rapid progress of the students and the success of the department.
The exceptional work of the instrumental department has been evident in the daily performances of
its students. To this division was given the responsibility of furnishing march music for the devotional
exercises — a task which both band and orchestra handled admirably. Good material, careful organization
and skilful leadership insured their success.
Willing and enthusiastic support was given to all student body activities and especially in rallies and
ball games was the band a moving force.
A special feature of the year's work was the organization bass and string quartets, trios, duets, etc.,
that aided in numerous public functions and became strikingly popular as is evident in the great demand
for their performance.

Orchestra
THIS year's Orchcslr.i h.is ihc bcsl siring choir in ils history. This nukes it possible to interpret tlie classic composers in
their greatest compositions. 'I'he smaller chamber music organizations are largely responsible for this unusual growth.
There is a keen interest manifest in every part. The best players do not hesitate to play second violin, because they
realize that this part, when done well is just as necessary and effective as any other.
The next problem is to add more of the proper wood wind instruments. This is the most difficult stction to perfect in
any orchestra. However, we are fortunate in having four professional performers in this department. The brass and per-
cussion sections are equal to those of any school conservatory orchestra.
Some outstanding program numbers for this year have been; Poet and Peasant Overture by Suppe. Overture Symphonic
by Mr. Robertson. Ballet Suite by Gluck-Mottl. Surprise Symphony by Haydn. The Evolution of Dixie, by Lake, and the
Orchestration for Mr. Hanson's Opera, Tam-Man Nacup. Besides these the orchestra and chamber music organizations have
played numerous shorter numbers.
The Band
THIi band, built upon the cornerstones of service, unselfishness and love of art, has been scjuarely behind the iootball and
Basketball teams and all student-body activities. It has been anxious to help, in every possible way to make this year a
single success by being ready at the spare of the moment to give to the school whatever it desired.
The band has attained unusual perfection for a College Band and has met with great success in .several concerts given in
Provo, American Fork, Spanish Fork, Coalville and broadcasting over the Radio in Salt Lake City, These entertainments
were of high standards, presenting to the people the best in classical, characteristic and popular music.
At the annual Spring Tour through the southern part of the state, concerts and dances were given in Payson, Nephi,
Fountain Green, Ephraim, Gunnison, Richfield, Monroe and Panguitch,
Several talented members of the organization took part in the Wind Instrument Contest for the Pardoc Gold Medal, in
which Francis Haycock, the wizard on the cornet, was the winner.

The Ladies' Glee Club
THE work of the Ladies' Glee Club this year has undoubtedly excelled in every respect the glee clubs of previous
years. The club has had a definite aim in view, to break away from the old conventional concert style and
usher in the operatic costume style with action; which has set a standard for succeeding years.
Under the very professional direction of Professor Florence J. Madsen the Ladies' Glee Club work attained a
perfection of artistic quality entirely in accordance with her exceptional ability and training. Two major concerts
have been given in which the girls appeared before large audiences well trained and beautifully arrayed in costume.
The pagination of each song was carefully and artistically arranged by Professor E. H. Eastmond. head of the Art
Department. The officers were: Miss Gladys Sorensen. Manager of the Club and Pianist; Rhoda Johnson, Assistant
Manager; Leah Broadbent, Secretary; Bee Parsons, Art Director.
The Male Glee Club
A
S we look back over the year's activities, we marvel at a few of the organizations in the institution. Among
the foremost in individual and collected activity is the B. Y. U. Male chorus.
This club has accomplished more in the year than any previous group in the school and perhaps in the
In five weeks' time a complete repertoire was memorized in the first quarter and a tour taken before the quarter
was more than half over.
Throughout the year under the able directorship of Professor Franklin Madsen and Managership of Lee Larsen,
the club has given concerts that have thrilled large audiences, throughout the county and adjoining communities. The
climax came with the brilliant tour to southern Utah towns and Nevada. This tour was supplemented by several
concerts and programs in Provo and in student body and stake functions.
The organization has been assisted and accompanied in all its activities by the "Y Cougar Quartet."
Mr. Madsen as director is to be congratulated upon the splendid work the boys have done under his leadership.

The Cougar Quartet
Two years ago four members of the 1927 Banyan staff organized what was called the "Banyan Quartet." and
entertained throughout the year.
Beginning the year 1927-28. they began singing for the "Y" again after a successful summer together
in the parks of Southern Utah. Up to this time the quartet had been composed of Lawrence Lee. first tenor. Julius
V. Madscn. second tenor. Bliss Finlayson. baritone, and LeGrande Anderson, second bass. Madsen discontinued
school during Christmas holidays and Edgel Blackham became the second tenor of what, then, became the "Cougar
Quartet." This group has sung in many places in Utah. Idaho and Nevada, and have broadcasted over KSL on
variotis occasions. Only one of the boys is graduating this year so we expect to hear more of them in the future.

Another chapter was written in the history of the "Y's" brilliant musical achievement in the spring of 1928
when "Tam-Man Nacup," (Spring Comes) written, both words and music, by Professor William F, Hanson, of the
music department, was selected and presented as the annual competitive opera for the year. It was produced for the
first time in the Paramount Theatre, afternoon and evening, of Thursday, May 3, to two of the largest audiences
ever gathered in Provo to see a B. Y. U, musical production.
"Tam-Man Nacup" is based entirely upon the Ute ceremonial known as the Bear Dance, a spring festival with
which, through years of intimate associations with the Indians. Professor Hanson is entirely familiar. The Ute
songs, civilized a bit, but retaining their weird charm were used throughout the production, as were the Ute dances
and traditions. Long and careful research among the Utes on the part of the author made the presentation of his-
torical interest as well as an artistic triumph.
The songs and choruses of "Tam-Man Nacup" were unusually and weirdly beautiful and effective. All of the
principals as well as the chorus so lived the ceremonial that the audience was immediately transported to the very
hearts of the Ute Indians where they beheld their simple faith, heard their simple superstitions, and enjoyed their
meaningful dances.

The Dramatic
Season
THE dramatic season was one of
a conventional nature, though
the All-Boys Show and the Junior
Vodie offered departures from the
older standards. The general aim of
the department was attained in that
some two hundred collegians partici-
pated before University audiences.
The third annual one-act play con-
test brought to us some of the greatest
one-act plays ever written and all of
unusual merit in their presentation.
Drama and comedy will alternate,
hereafter, and drama will be the
theme for the year 1929. Fourteen plays were given and money prizes, a cup and four medals were awarded to the
winning contestants. Ephraim, Richfield, Eureka and Weber were the successful finalists.
The Paramount Theatre co-operated with the Dramatic Art Department and initiated a Children's Theatre
movement, which will be an annual winter effort. This season two matinees were given, with a plan for four shows
next winter.
A precedent has been established with this year, in that Girl's Day will be followed by an All-Girl's Show.
Beauty featured this year's show.
The department enjoyed the staging of Professor Hanson's Opera "Tarn-Man Nacup."
Twenty-five one-act plays were presented for the various Wards of the County to aid them in the entertain-
ment and finance problems.
The little theatre was crowded each Wednesday with interested auditors for the varied program of enacted
plays.
The year of 1927-192 8 has been the outstanding season since Professor Pardoe came to the University nine
years ago.

''Milestones"
THE competitive play this year was Milestones, a costume play by Arnold Bennett
and Edward Knoblauch. It deals with three different generations; 1860, 1885,
and the last in 1912. It is based on the misunderstanding that exists between old age
and youth in practically every generation.
Mrs. Rhead was startled at what seemed to her the extreme daring of her daughter
Gertrude, and the first act takes up the events in the lives of Gertrude, her lover Sam,
her brother John and his sweetheart and Sam's sister Rose Sibley.
The next act takes up John and Rose and their problem with their daughter Emily,
and her desire to marry the man she loves and not the one her parents think would be the
best for her. However, in spite of the pleadings of Gertrude, who spoiled her life, Emily
allows herself to be ruled by her parents and the last act shows her sorrow and yet how
she tries to bring about the same sorrow for her daughter Muriel. Muriel, however, is of
a- generation which demands its own way — but rather than destroy what happiness her
mother has will give up her own. The play ends with the older generation seeing the
rights of the younger and allowing them to make their own lives.
The cast of the play was well chosen.

''The Haunted House"
A THREE-ACT mystery play by Owen Davis, it is a satire on the modern form of mystery plays.
It deals with the attempts of a psycho-analyst to solve by scientific methods a mysterious murder case.
The climax is reached when Isabel Westly is arrested for her own murder.
Victor Ashworth, as Desmond Duncon. a psycho-analytic author, did a good piece of acting, and Helen Carroll
as his loving wife kept the audience amused during the entire performance. The bride and groom. Emily and Jack
Drescoll. were played well by Ethel Lowrey Handlcy and Max Taylor. Ed. the milkman. "Star" Nelson, gave some
excellent humor as did Don Cluff in the part of Morgan the hobo. The rest of the cast were: Mr. Evans. Glen
Dickson; Isabel Carter. Helen Glazier; Thomas. Frank Whiting; Ezra. Perle White: and Dan Grogan, Roy Fugal.
"The Patsy"
THE PATSY, a three-act comedy by Barry Conners, is a revision and modernization of the old play of Cinderella.
Patricia Harrington, played charmingly by Thelma West, is the Patsy who is blamed whenever anything goes
wrong, and is forced to remain in the background in order that her sister Grace. Idella Sainsbury. might be
presented to the best advantage and win the well-to-do Billy Caldwell. William McCoard. Pa Harrington. Jean
Paulson, is on Patsy's side and finally puts Ma in her proper place. The part of Ma was taken by Ruth Clark and
was one of the best characters in the play. This new authority of Pa's brings about Patsy's triumph in the winning
of the young Prince Charming. Tony Anderson, played by Roy Gibbons. The other parts were: Sadie Buchanan,
Mary Lee; Francis Patrick O'Fbhcrty, Harry Olsen ; and "Trip" Busty. James Jacobs.

"John Ferguson"
JOHN FERGUSON, an extremely effective play by John St. Irvine was presented by the Senior Class. The
leading role was taken by Harold Clark with Mary Ostlund playing opposite him as Mrs. Ferguson. They
carried the parts very effectively. "Star" Nelson and Madge Peterson played together, presenting both comedy
and tragedy in their parts. Fern Jude played the part of Clutie. a half-wit beggar of the streets. Albert Corless
played very well the part of the villian. Other characters in the play were Lorin Bryner. the postman: and Orin
Fuller, the part of Andrew Ferguson.
To just what extent a religious man can accredit all acts of man to Gods beneficent direction, motivates the
play and gives John Ferguson ample opportunity for effective acting and gripping scenes.
"'Yellow Sands"
AFTER a tour of the southern part of the state with the play "Yellow Sands." the Theta Alpha Phi players
presented it in College Hall. The play by Adelaide and Evan Philpotts is based on the happenings and people
of the little English seaboard town of Yellow Sands just after the World War. Victor Ashworth. as Richard
Varwell. an old drunken philosopher, did some excellent characterization. Jenifer Varwell. his well-to-do sister, was
played by Florence Peterson. Mary Varwell, his sister-in-law, an old woman who was used to having her own way
in the world was extremely well acted by Lucile Tuttlc. Helen Carroll and Harold Candland. as Emma Major and
Arthur Varwell the lovers, kept the interest of the audience throughout. Albert Corless. took the part of Joe Varwell,
a stalwart seaman laborer and anarchist, who finally inherited Aunt Jenifer's fortune which was sought by all the
Varwell family. Albert did some excellent work in this part. The feminine disturbance in his life was Lydia Blake,
taken by Jennie Holbrook. The twins, Minnie and Nellie Masters, played by Anna Peay and Madge Peterson were
screams. Star Nelson did well as Thomas Major. Charles Berge took the part of Mr. Baslow, the lawyer. And lest
we forget. Akoo-ko-ko taken by himself.

"Some Girl"
Alpha Kappa Psi All Boy Show
TINKLING with witticisms, and surging with the pep of youth, the 1928 all boy's
show "Some Girl" was staged in College Hall on April 25-26. The story hovers
around the escapades of a female impersonator who ensnares an English fop, in a success-
ful effort to recover stolen bonds. All the "girls" were of a high calibre, and the climax
came when the dancing "girls," coached by Kathryn Stahmann decidedly won the hearts
of the audience. The play was coached and staged by A. Rex Johnson, organizer and
former president of The Alpha Kappa Psi organization.
The members of Beta Delta Chapter of Alpha Kappa Psi, national professional com-
merce fraternity, feel the need for added loan funds available to seniors, and by means
of "Some Girl" began the Alpha Kappa Loan Fund, which is to be handled through
regular institutional channels, and be available to Seniors in the College of Commerce.
From the compromising situations incident to female impersonations by one man
in the midst of a bevy of girls, to the artistic singing of the Cougar Quartette, the all-
boy show for 1928 sets a new high level for "fun stuff."
Social Unit No. 2 (Trovotas) were enthusiastic sponsors.

Football
' I "HE Brigham Young University football team scoring two decisive victories from
-*- Western States Teachers and the Colorado Miners, one draw with the mighty
California Aggies and four defeats from the Utah University, Colorado Aggies, Greeley
Teachers and the Utah Aggies did some very commendable gridiron battling this season.
Although they failed to capture the conference championship some very good football
technique was displayed.
The "Y" team was very fortunate to have Dick Thorne, the famous linesman, within
their ranks. Among the other prominent linesmen, Don and George Corbett, Worth-
ington, Alexander, Albert Corliss, Reeves and Henry Simmons — the captain for the
'2 8 season — counted as very strong numbers. In the backfield Clarence and Basil
Skousen, O. Rowe, Collins and Dixon proved to be a unit of strength not found in many
varsity elevens. With the Skousen brothers' fighting tenacity and Owen Rowe's speed
the opponents would usually find themselves in deep water. Some of this football stock
will be in the ranks next year and with more experience added to their collection of
football tactics the "Y" should make a very good showing.
Charles Hart, the director of football and track at the "Y," has supervised these
phases of the athletic system for the past three years with the aid of Roberts and has
been very efficient. Hart was previously known as a stellar track man at the U. A. C,
and has been a star in many events at the B. Y. U. He was appointed to his position at
the "Y" after very efficiently managing athletics at the Teton High School, Driggs,
Idaho, for two years. He has been retained as assistant to O. Romney, the chosen Mentor
of "Y" athletics for next year.
The football lines have also received much valuable assistance from Coach Phil
Jackson who spent part-time to aid the technique of line activity. He previously was ail-
American tackle of the Big Ten, three-year letter man, captain, and a favorite of his
coach at Chicago where he previously attended school.

COLORADO AGGIE GAME AT FORT COLLINS
B. Y. U., 0 — Colorado, 29
^ I 'HE B. Y. U. eleven took the first trip of the season to Fort Collins where they battled with the mighty
-*- Colorado Aggies. Although within striking distance of the goal several times the Youngsters were un-
able to penetrate the Farmers' line for a score and the game ended unfortunately for the B. Y. U. with a
score of 29 — 0.
Twice during the game the Cougars were in the Farmers' barnyard with the goal at close quarters, but
each time the Farmer boys proved too many for them. The Cougars fought hard through the game and
once held the Farmer lads for four downs on the two yard line, but when the clamor of battle subsided the
Aggies were found to be on top.
CALIFORNIA AGGIE GAME AT DAVIS, CALIFORNIA
B. Y. U., 0 — Aggies, 0
' I 'HE B. Y. U. gridiron eleven traveled to the sunny south to Davis where they encountered the
•*■ California Aggies and battled to a scoreless finish. In a struggle which reduced itself largely to a
battle between two evenly matched teams the clamor of gridiron clash waged on for four quarters without
score.
Throughout the struggle the Cougars were slightly favored. Many times they broke through the
Mustang line and scrambled for a touchdown, but were grounded on the five yard line. At the close of
the fourth quarter the blue boys were pending on the five yard line near the Farmers' goal and the time
snatched away their victory.

B. Y. U. vs. GREELEY TEACHERS AT PROVO
B. Y. U., 7— Colorado, 21
OURPRISING offensive and stone wall defense in emergencies placed the Colorado Teachers with a 21 — 7
^~' victory over the "Y" Cougars in the first home game of the season.
The B. Y. U. gridders made an auspicious start by scoring a touchdown less than a minute after the
game had started, but the Teachers began their puzzling triple passing and forward passing which for a
time completely capsized the Cougars routine of playing and spelled two touchdowns for the opponent
eleven. The struggle waged on until late in the game when the Greeley field general outpunted the "Y"
assortment and was mainly responsible for another touchdown. The inability to solve the Teachers' trick
plays was the fundamental clot that proved fatal to the local eleven.
UTAH AGGIE GAME AT LOGAN, UTAH
B. Y. U., 0— Utah Aggies, 22
THE "Y" gridders gallantly held the Utah Aggies to a 3 — 0 score for the first half and apparently played
their opponents on equal terms, but in the second half the Aggie backs broke through the Cougar's
line for several long gains and run the score to 22 — 0.
Throughout the game the "Y" was puzzled with the mystery of why the A. C. squad displayed such
crushing offensive, but then the Covigars were quite dangerous at times themselves. Several times the
Farmer lads were on their prayer bones at the ten yard line struggling to block the blue boys. A desperate
punting was staged between Colvin of B. Y. and Warburton of the A. C, but the honors were about evenly
divided. An attempted forward pass by the B. Y. was intercepted by an A. C. milkman and carried 97
yards to a touchdown, which ended the contest at a score of 22 — 0.

THE UTAH GAME AT PROVO, UTAH
B. Y. U., 0— Utah, 20
IJLAYING dependable football and at times showing sparkling flashes of gridiron technique, the B. Y. U.
■^ Cougars held the dynamic U. of U. Redskins to three touchdowns. Although the encounter was
fatal to the score card the "Y" gridders counteracted an exceedingly powerful Utah forward which refused
to be blocked and a speedy backfield which charged with a dynamic force behind a substantial protective
interference.
Several times the Redskins were forced to battle for dear life to ward off the advancing blue warriors
as they broke through the line at close quarters and stampeded for the goal line. Outside of those few
times, B. Y. U. chances for touchdowns were incessantly contaminated when the Redskins refused to flinch
to the bullet-like terror of the "Y" Cougars and the game ended with a score 20 to 0.
WESTERN STATES GAME AT PROVO
B. Y. U., 60— Western States, 7
THE "Y" Cougar eleven, with their crushing offense, and their stone wall defense, dethroned the W. S.
C. gridders with a score of 60 — 7. After a late start, the "Y" eleven found themselves and completely
upset their opponents.
The brilliant line crushing, tackling, and guarding consistently, demoralized the U. S. C. football
tactics and the Cougar eleven charged to victory. The blue boys surpassed their opponents throughout the
game and were primed in every way to bring disaster to W. S. C. The "Y" passes, line plunging and
systematized defensive bulwarks were so effective throughout the contest that the W. S. C. line was
repeatedly shattered and the Cougar boys dashed across the gridiron to a decisive conquest.

THE COLORADO MINES GAME AT PROVO, UTAH
B. Y. U., 28 — Colorado Mines, 19
AT the B. Y. U. field the Cougars ended the '27 football season with a tremendous outburst of super-
power which carried them on an equal platform with the other teams of the conference.
Throughout the game the "Y" Cougars outclassed their opponents; their fine gridiron tactics, the
crashing "liners" and the speedy backfield utterly bewildered the Miners, broke up their line, hurled them
to their prayer bones and finished with four touchdowns. The tactful line plunging of the Skousen
brothers, the speed of Rowe and the fighting tenacity of Corliss was outstanding in this brilliant victory.

Frosh Football
THE Frosh football season for this year viewed from the standpoint of victories was
successful, and as a season for developing material for the prospective varsity squad
it was of superior nature. Their first clash with Weber College ended in a score of 0 — 0.
However, in the next encounter with Snow College the Frosh played like veterans and
plainly outclassed their southern opponents; they scaled the score card for two touch-
downs which settled the conflict at 12 — 0. The following week they lashed the Spring-
ville gridders and galloped through the mud knee deep for seven touchdowns which ended
the struggle at 45 — 0. As a final test the Kittens were matched against the Ute Tribe to
determine the state title, and when the atmosphere cleared and the clamor of battle sub-
sided, it was found that the "Red" gridders were victors by virtue of one lone touchdown.
Although the Kittens had equaled the Utah eleven throughout the contest the Papoose
gridders won with a score of 6 — 0.
Throughout the entire season the Greenlings flourished that type of gridiron enthu-
siasm which placed them very near the top on the honor roll, and of which most varsity
elevens would not have been ashamed.
The clever field runs of Vacher along with the line plunging, tackling, blocking
and passing of his skilful colleagues was a surprise to football fans. Hoover as tackle,
R. Magleby, Ballif and Bullock in backfield, Balle as center, and Purcell, Brown, Barrett
and Clark on the line proved to be a very systematic combination and responsible for
much of their effective playing.

Basketball
ALTHOUGH unable to add the
western division Rocky Mountain
Conference championship flag to their
conquests, the Cougar basketeers of this
season did some of the most commend-
able playing that the basketball fans in
this particular section have ever wit-
nessed upon the wax floor. Out of the
twelve games played the blue and white
"Y" boys demonstrated a distinct superi-
ority in three of them, trouncing the
Redskins twice and the U. Farmer boys
once; the games lost were only by a very
small margin or last minute rallies.
The first series played against the Bob-
cats of Montana which took place at
Provo resulted in two defeats for the "Y"
quintet. Although the Cougars played
superior ball, they were forced to submit to the fine basketball technique of the
Bobcats and chalked a very close score in the two contests which ended 4.^ — 41
and 43 — 37, the two nights respectively.
In the second series of games stalked against the Redskins at Salt Lake City, the Cougars showed superiority and
walloped their Papoose opponents in two successive contests. The game finished the first night with a score of 37 — 50
and the second was a similar result, 35 — 31.
The B. Y. Youngsters then encountered the Aggie boys from Logan on the Provo wax floor to determine the
victors in the third conference meet. In the first night's event the Cougars completely shattered the U. A. C. defense
and ran the score to 49 — 34. The Young quintet displayed some of the best basketball of the conference in this con-
test. The next, the rejuvenated farmer basketeers came back and registered an almost incredible improvement and the
Logan scoring machine hit it off on all six to even the count at a score of 3 9 — 31.
The Redskins from Utah University motored to Provo and walloped the Cougar ranks in two successive conflicts.
Featuring a stubborn defense throughout the game by both teams the encounter continued at an even stride until the
last half, when the Utes found the hoop with the most consistency and ended the game 31 — 25. The next evening
the teams played an evenly matched game continually, exchanging places for lead in score, but unfortunately the
game ended when the Utes made a last bound and chalked up five points in lead with a score of 31 — 26.
The third and fourth encounters with the Farmer boys at Logan were somewhat disastrous, for the Cougars were
downed in two successive games with a score, 52 — 41, the first night, and 48 — 42, the second night of playing. In
the first series of games played with the U. Aggies, both teams featured a stone wall defense in contrast to the brilliant
offensive and lack of guarding in the second series, which resulted in a higher score for both teams.
The last two games of the season were the most disastrous to the Cougars of any in the conference conflict. The
contests centered at Boseman, Montana, where both teams displayed some latent ability in basketball techniques, but
evidently too much of this ability was latent on the part of the Cougars, as the scores of the two evenings respectively
climaxed at 69 — 44 and 57 — 41.
Director Eugene L. Roberts, mentor of the Brigham Young University athletic department, has this year been
of the school; the other leave of absence was in 1924-25, when he went to Ogden to be director at the famous Weber
of the school; the other leaves of absence was in 1924-25, when he went to Ogden to be director at the famous Weber
gymnasium. Coach Roberts elevated sports and athletics from a rather mediocre condition to the advanced plain of
where they are today. Besides being an able coach, he is also well informed on all phases of physical activity and
development. He has been very successful in organizing the diversified and usually inexperienced material at the
"Y" and making victorious teams. His mission at the Young University has been very successful.

FROSH Basketball this season, with a team aided by the hand
of mother good fortune, captured eight out of the twelve
games played. Besides rushing the score card, the grcenling
basketeers revealed some very good fodder with which to stuff the
varsity guns for next year.
The greenling squad composed of Hatch, Gee, Bullock.
J, Bown, N, Bown, Rassmussen, Modean, Purcell, Barrett and
O, Skouscn, worked hard throughout the season to sharpen their
technique for the season's events. N. Bown was quoted as
being one of the most consistent in finding the hoop, although
he had several close competitors.
Coach Hart and Stan Wilson, assistants to Roberts, proved
to be able coaches and responsible for not a small portion of the
greenling success.
Club Series Basketball
BASKETBALL was very competitive among the clubs this
season with Payson barely defeating the Idaho basketeers
in the final encounter, and proudly carrying off the spoils
of the club basketball series.
The final line-up into the quarter finals created some hot
discussion upon the waxed floor of the gymnasium when the
Alpine quint chalked a defeat under the superiority of the quint
from Payson by a score of 16 — 11. The second upset of the
series was the defeat of the Bear Lake Club by their less expe-
rienced opponents, the farmer lads of the Ag Club by a score of
16 — 14, the game ended by a 14 — 14 tie, and five extra sessions
were necessary before a deciding margin was made by either team.
The Idaho boys then invaded the ranks of the Provo aggrega-
tion and chalked the score card to a 17 — 12 win, Garfield
then advanced into the limelight by defeating the Block "Y" quintet by 6 — 4 score.
It finally simmered down to a combat between the Payson five and the Idaho quintet. The Idaho boys were then eliminated by a
very spectacular struggle while their opponents proudly walked off with the spoils of the club series conflict.

Track
IN the first intercollegiate track meet of the season the Young Cougars experienced
another characteristic '26 and '27 heart-rending close point defeat. Although the
"Y" Kittens astonished the athletic fans of this section who expected them to outscore
the Ute opponents hands down, they were successful from an individualistic standpoint
by having within their ranks high-point man. The Utah University stacked up un-
expectedly yet well deserved a total of 77 2/3 points against 67 1/3 for the blue and
white.
The Crimsonites placed first in the meet by monopolizing all nine points in the
pole vault, taking first and second in the 880 yard dash, scoring 7 2/3 counters in the
high jump, and walking away with the high hurdles. The clean sweep in these events
plus an occasional first and second in others, pronounced the Redskin warriors victors
in this feat and made them enthusiastic, with high hopes for state championship.
The 220 yard dash, one of the events most conspicuously featured in the contest in
which Nate Long, Crimson greenling, nosed out the Cougar veteran, Owen Rowe, by
less than one foot at the tape to win in the exceptional short time of 22 seconds flat.
The long distance races of the event were also particularly interesting with the long
winded Tony Bentley of the Cougar ranks and Jess Sevy of the Crimsonites sprinting
their best to win first place and dividing the honors. In the mile Bentley uncorked a
sparkling 200 yards' sprint on the last lap to put the Ute ace back at the finish
while in the two mile event the two aces exchanged places at the tape line and the
Crimsonite bore the honor of first place.
The Brigham Young contestants copped first places in nine events, while the Utah
Redskins claimed only eight. The last event of the meet, the 880 yard relay, was voiced
by some as being the most thrilling race ever staged on the "Y" field in recent years.
Owen Rowe running as anchor man for the "Y" snatched the baton when a Ute victory
seemed inevitable and with bullet-like swiftness, closed the gap of twenty yards to nose
the Crimson finisher, and the meet ended with victory for the Utah Redskins.
Coach Hart, track director at the "Y" should not receive any small amount of the
credit for the good work done by the trackmen. It was because of the coach's per-
sistence and able directorship that the track boys made the good showing which they did.

DUPLICATING the process of 1927, the Young University Paddlers captured the
Rocky Mountain Conference title in swimming when they outclassed and out-
swam all contenders in the conference meet and billed the score card for a total of 38
points as against 28 for Utah University, 16 for the Utah Aggies, 14 for Colorado Uni-
versity, 5 for the University of Wyoming and 5 for the Colorado Aggies.
Two events were surrounded with limelight when two conference records were
smashed before the navigating of the "Y" aquatic artists. Bud Shields and Millet, the
former who later became one of our famous national champions, both increased previous
scoring. Bud broke his own standing record in the 100 yard free style event, setting
the time at 57 2 5 seconds, one-fifth of a second over his previous mark. Millet sub-
tracted several seconds from the time of the 200 yard breast stroke, swimming the dis-
tance in 2:48, this broke both state and conference records for this particular event.
Competition and excitement reeled to a climax in the first event of the conference
meet when Young and Utah were paddling their fastest to gain an early point lead in the
160 yard relay. Utah got the lead by a three yards margin and which could not be nar-
rowed until the last round when Bud Shields put the spectators to riot by his spectacular
paddling which closed the margin and placed the Cougar natators on a common field
for high point honors in this event. Millet then chalked up five more points for ""Y"
when he surprised swimming fans and dashed away from all contenders in the 200 yard
breast stroke event. B. Y. continued to make additions until the final score increased to
a difference of ten points to the nearest competitor.
A large portion of the credit for these victories is due to Coach C. F. Leaf, who is
the swimming coach of the Provo High School and the B. Y. U. He has been coach of
the two schools for some five or six years and during that time has brought many vic-
tories to the B. Y. in swimming, having aided the Cougars to three consecutive conference
victories.
Some of those trained by this outstanding swimming coach and responsible for most
of this year's victories are: Bud Shields, Millet, Merrill Christopherson, Joe Allen,
Rondo Robinson, Ira Markham and Cliff Dangerfield. Coach Leaf will likely be on the
coaching staff next year and is expected to tow in another conference victory.

|_j' ROM a physical weakling, to a national champion in six years is the record set by
■■" Bud Shields, premier swimmer of the "Y."
Although but twenty years of age and a sophomore in college, he has set a record
which places him permanently in the Hall of Fame. He has garnered twenty-eight
medals; one bronze, two silver and all the rest gold. He now holds seventeen records
which he has set in interscholastic, junior and senior A. A. U. and intercollegiate
activities.
This year Bud was the leading man on his team which won another Rocky Mountain
Conference championship. Single-handed he tied Stanford University for fourth place
in the National Inter-Collegiate Meet held at Philadelphia on March 31, winning individ-
ual honors for the meet and breaking two national collegiate records, and one ail-Ameri-

The Wrestling Year
WRESTLING this year placed the Brigham Young University one step
higher when the"Y"clowned the "Redskin" grapplers with a score of
20 — 13, shortly before the Rocky Mountain Conference meet at Logan, in
which they tied with the Ute's for second place, out-distanced Montana, but
were downed by the U. Aggies who won the conference meet. The score
ended B. Y. U., 24 — U., 24 — Aggies, 28 and Montana, 8.
Clark Larsen, Don Corbett, Johnson and T. Larsen were probably the
best bets within the "Y" circle, although others were strong, scienced, and
showed a great deal of determination, they lacked experience in the grap-
plers' arena. C. Larsen and Corbett, "Y" letter men and old veterans on the
mat downed their opponents with decisive superiority in the state meet, both
winning by falls. In the Rocky Mountain Conference meet, Corbett
supremely floored his opponents in short time and the first bout Larsen
successfully put his man's shoulders on the mat, but in the second tumble
his leg was broken and hence he lost the decision.
Johnson, a newcomer in the Cougar wrestling ranks, efficiently supplied
the vacancy in the 175 pound weight left by Knudsen of '26. He romped
off with victory and showed speed, science and strength, characteristic of an
old timer in the grappler's den.
T- Larsen and Thurgood of the lesser weights showed good trim when they lashed their men to the
carpet and showed fair time in doing it. Both men displayed courage, speed and strength in capturing
their honors.
Several others within the Cougar squad of mat huddlers showed good possibilities. Bailey, a freshman
in the game, has a good start for the next year although his inexperience spelled defeat this year. A few
others showed fine form, determination and science, although the lack of experience played to their dis-
advantage this year and they did not place on the final conference line-up.
The wrestling unit at B. Y. has made much accomplishment by the persistence and able training given
by Coach Webb. Each year new material comes in for grappler formation and it is up to the direction of
the coach to mold it into effective product which he has done very efficiently.

Tennis
THE tennis teams at the Brigham Young University have at
the time of this writing, cinched the state tennis title. This
regains for them the tennis state supremacy which they held for
two years preceding the two years previous to this season.
Thus far this season they have won three matches. The
tennis squad from the state university with a brilliant lineup
and just as confident, were the first ones to stagger and finally
fall under the superiority of the Cougar raqueteers in their first
initial match of the season at the Ute courts. The meet is voiced
as being close, but the final encounter dropped a "Y" victory.
The entire match was undecided until the last few minutes, when
Lew Munk, a "Y" raqueteer, steamed up some fast and accurate
playing, and downed the invincible Bill Hayden, strong man for
the Redskins. In this encounter Munk gave Hayden the battle
of his life time.
Munk easily took this first set at 6 — 2, but Hayden then
came back and captured the next two sets. With the two uni-
versities tied with two matches each, and Hayden, a two to one lead on the "Y" score. The pangs of defeat
seemed inevitable to B. Y., but then Munk steadied himself and pulled through with a win of 6 — 8 over
the Redskin.
The two doubles in which Belvins and Farsberg, "U," defeated Dixon and Porter, "Y," and Holt and
Gilchrist, "Y," defeated Freed and Crane, "U," showed good style. In the other two singles. Holt downed
Crane, "U," and Belvins defeated Dixon, "Y."
The Young tennis team, scored a victory over the Utah Agricultural College raqueteers, with a two
to three match on the local courts, thus ending the first half of the state collegiate tennis season undefeated.
However, the encounter was hotly contested, and it was only after much persistence and steadiness
that Young defeated their opponents in a last minute steam up. In the doubles, D. Dixon and R. Porter,
"Y," conquered J. Cowley and J. Christensen, "A. C," and L. Johnson and A. Saxer, "A. C," downed P.
Holt and E. Brindley, "Y." In the singles, Dixon, "Y," conquered Cowley, "A. C," and Holt defeated
Johnson, "A. C," and Cannon, "A. C," defeated Munk, "Y."
In the return match with the U., the Cougars were again victorious, winning the same matches as in
the previous meet.
T. Earl Pardee, tennis Mentor at the "Y," has been responsible for much of the success of Brigham
Young University in this sport.

Boxing
BOXING is a prospective prominent sport at the Brlgham Young University. Although the mit-sHngers in this
section have not been sufficiently strong to organize an intercollegiate boxing league, they are gradually growing
in number and a more brilliant future appears quite secure. As boxing is a developer of speed, keen muscular co-ordin-
ation, sportsmanship and mental alertness, it has been voiced by some that this form of athletic activity will eventually
demand a top seat among the other conspicuous college sports.
With Jess Hullinger and "Chick" Josie, two professional sluggers training within the group and lending assist-
ance, the boxing aspirants have developed some very good technique during this season. The next season will possibly
place the boxing sports one step nearer to the position among athletics which has been outlined.

Women's Athletics
' I 'HE Women's Athletic Association has co-operated with the physical education
-*- department in all of the girls' activities this year and a keen interest has been
exhibited.
The activities have made for good sportsmanship and the best qualities of the girls
have been brought out by competition.
The W. A. A. has fostered the following activities during the year: field hockey,
basketball, baseball, volley ball, tennis, dancing, swimming and archery.
Swimming has become a more popular sport since Ethia Blake won the state diving
contest.
All of the upper class students have taken greater part in the activities than ever
before. The Sophomores won the basketball tournament from the Frosh for the first time
in three years.
Our aim has been "A girl in every sport and a sport for every girl." Girls who
want less vigorous activity have found that archery is right there to fill the need; while
girls desiring more vigorous activities have found basketball a real sport.
The third invitational track meet open to women has been an outstanding factor to
girl performers and also the awarding of sweaters by the student body has been a great
incentive to the girls who have entered the field of athletics.

The Stadium
As the 1928 Banyan goes to press the Stadium project which has been under way for
several years is rapidly taking form. Present plans call for the completion of the
work for the opening of the new school year in September.
The structure will be of solid concrete, situated in a natural site which affords one
of the finest views of the most beautiful valley in Utah. The seating capacity of the
unit now under construction will be double that of any crowd which has ever assembled
for an athletic event at the Brigham Young University and the hillside on which the
seats are to be erected has an additional capacity of over ten thousand seats which can
be erected as the demand arises at a very minimum cost.
This much needed addition to the plant of the University is being made possible by
the students, alumni, and many friends of the institution. For several years the gradu-
ating classes have made the Stadium their project; the profits of the Students Supply have
been used to purchase the site; the men of the Student Body have donated the major por-
tion of the hand labor; and many friends have given most liberally of their equipment.
The Alumni and Institution co-operating will raise by a popular subscription and
sale of tickets the additional funds needed to complete the work.
Neither time nor money has been spared to make this new athletic field with its
adjoining spacious practice fields, playgrounds and parking areas one of the best in the
country.

LTHOUGH the Brigham Young University has no official
connection with the state or national government, Battery
C, 145th Field Artillery, Utah National Guard, serves the pur-
pose of a department of military science. Officered by a staff
who know their business, and equipped with the best that money
can buy. Battery C, extends unparalleled opportunities to the
students to become versed in the science of modern warfare. It
not only benefits members from a cultural and financial stand-
point, but it opens untold resources for their pleasure and amusement.
The Battery teaches the basic things in the science of handling men, horses and machinery, first aid,
health and sanitation. Many things which are not taught in school are given to those who choose to wear
their country's uniform and protect the flag if necessary. Men receive instruction in how to accomplish
things in an orderly and economic way, letting them see the real value of co-operation and efficiency.
They take orders and give them, they are men among men. Their obligations are those of a gentleman
and a soldier.
The battery not only aids the school in the instruction of science, but it also helps to give its mem-
bers pleasures which they otherwise would be denied. To those who are fond of outdoor sport, horses and
polo equipment are at their disposal. The polo and baseball teams of the battery stand up well with the
best in the state. To every member is offered the opportunity to participate.
At the present time, approximately seventy-five per cent of the organization are men from school.
These men who serve their country every Monday night, and 1 5 days every summer are letter men, student
body officers, and prominent students in every department. Although there is no official connection, the
Battery is indeed a part of the school.

this outstanding social function and throughout the festivities of the evening the motif was carried out
effectively and charmingly.
Gaily bedecked in a profusion of flowers, the Feria presented an imposing sight, such as might have
greeted the eyes of a light-hearted Spanish grandee in his native country. From the Fonda, a typical inn
of Old Spain, refreshment was served to appreciative guests. Serenaders, in all the gallantry of this
chivalrous people, played seductive strains beneath the window of a fair senorita who rewarded them with
a rose, coquetishly thrown to them.

Leadership Week
'^''\ ^ AN'S quest for joy," the theme of the seventh annual Leadership Week, is truly one of nation-wide
■*■■*■ appeal since it drew to Brigham Young University, January 23-27, 1505 people, representing
seventy stakes from Canada to Mexico.
The importance of better trained leaders was officially recognized b)' the institution seven years ago,
when one week was set aside for those desiring special instruction. The opportunity was readily appre-
ciated and the number registering increased each year until the present maximum attendance.
By providing splendid opportunities for mental, social and spiritual growth, the organizers of the
program recognized the value of well-rounded development as a factor in securing greater happiness.
Classes were conducted by capable instructors in history, music, psychology, science, literature, teach-
ing, theology, health, art, clothing and textiles, scouting and journalism. The last named class, an added
feature this year, was well-attended by high school newspaper workers.
To accommodate the exceptionally large crowd, two assemblies were held daily — 11:30 for students,
and 1:30 for visitors. The exceptional nature of the meetings was appreciated by those who attended.
Prominent speakers were: President Heber J. Grant, Stephen L. Richards, Melvin J. Ballard, David O.
McKav, Richard R. Lvman, J. Golden Kimball, Adam S. Bennion, B. H. Roberts, whose subjects were
chosen in keeping with the general theme.
Recreational or social leadership classes were ably conducted by Eugene L. Roberts, Wilma Jeppson,
C. J. Hart, and capable assistants.
"The Daily Leader" a publication edited by the news writing class under the direction of Professor
H. R. Merrill, contained helpful information, an aid to the visitors.
The true accomplishments of the week can not be evaluated accurately since they must be judged
by the success of the individual seekers after happiness.

Social Organization
THE Brigham Young University recognizes proper social development as one of the
important by-products of college training. For many years this social opportunity
has been provided through the class and club organizations of the institution, but in
late years the student body has grown so rapidly that these organizations have become too
large to provide students the intimate social contacts, and opportunities for leadership,
which are thought desirable.
After careful investigation and discussion on the part of the Faculty, a Social Unit
system of organization was worked out, and upon approval by the Board of Trustees it
was put into operation at mid-year.
The basic idea is democratic, as it provides that every student in the University shall
belong to a group of congenial companions. The size of each unit varies from twenty
to thirty, and many motives other than social have contributed toward this grouping,
such as similar scholastic interests, art, athletics, music, language, etc.
The general supervision is delegated to a Social Unit Committee. This committee
has general supervision over membership, names of units, and their activities. This com-
mittee is a representative group from the faculty and the classes, thus all the major social
interests are adequately represented.
A subsidiary committee — the Inter-Social Unit Committee — is composed of repre-
sentatives from each Social Unit. This committee is responsible for the proper regula-
tion of Inter-social unit affairs such as fees, costs of parties, and social unit practices.
From the brief experience thus far this year it is confidently hoped that this system
will meet the needs of the University in a broad social way. The enthusiastic support
of the students is evidenced by the fact that already over 750 students are affiliated in
about thirty-five units. These fine groups are enjoying themselves, making lasting
friendships, conducting proper social functions, and are making for a wholesome social
spirit about the Campus.

THE RICH MANS DEATH
Or
THE MOURNER'S CHANT
The rich man's death was wide announced,
Relatives heard and thought:
"The will, the will,
I wonder what's in the will!
Does it bode us good —
Or iUi"'
The telegrams his praise pronounced
While cousins more news sought, —
"The will, the will,
I wonder what's in the will!
Does it bode us good —
Or ill.?"
The rich man's corse was well attended,
His relatives sat and pondered,
"The will, the will,
I wonder what's in the will!
Does it bode us good —
Or ill.?"
The preacher's words with truth were blended
While relatives wept and wondered —
"The will, the will.
I wonder what's in the will!
Does it bode us good —
Or ill.?"
They placed him in his own rich vault
While his family groaned — and mumbled,
"The will, the will,
I wonder what's in the will!
Does it bode us good —
Or ill?"
Away they rushed both well and halt
And through his papers fumbled,
"Ah, here's the will,
Sec what's in the will!
God! It bodes us good —
And ill!"

Culture Plus
EST the school year 192 7-28 remain anonymous and thus be illegitimate in the generations of B. Y.
U. school periods, let us give it a name. Shall it be called the stadium year? Nay. for the stadium
conceived years ago. and its incubation period docs not end until next fall. Shall we dub it the men's
wardrobe, or the Social Unit, or the athletic renaissance year? Probably we are now approachmg an
appropriate identification tag for 1927-28.
Why not agree that the eight months just passing, shall be known in history as the Academic Culture
Year? The year when Brigham Young stepped from overalls into dress suits. There you are. You can't
beat the term, for it connotes all that has gone on from September until June, and it has a world of mean-
ing. This Academic Culture Year, initiated as it was by our good President. Franklin Stewart Harris,
after his sojourn with Kings and Consuls. Monarchs and Missionaries in all parts of the world, shall stand
out as the epochal period of B. Y. U. history.
Is there any student or faculty member so ungrateful as not to be glad that culture has at last come
to Brigham Young University? We are the salt of the earth; the aristocracy of earth's teeming millions;
the choicest blood of the Lord's selected few. That being the case, why should not all that the world has
in culture, in refinement, in social and educational excellence, in appearance as well as in reality— why
should not all this be our inheritance?
Boasting direct decent from the tented culture of the Israelites, from the traveling nomads of Asia
Minor, from the tough Teutons of the north countries, from England's merry monarchs, from pioneers of
New England, from the hunted and driven Mormons of '49, and from recent Rotarians and all who are
now great, let us no longer have the appearance of false humility, but rather let us strut to our full
proportions.
The faculty has good right to clean its finger-nails, and to brush the dust from its shoes, and to shave
daily. It should also wear its collars no longer than six days, that they might rest on the seventh. And
there is good reason why its pants should not bag at the knees as well as the seat. But. even my enthusiasm
for culture stands hesitant at proposing that this learned group of blue blooded educators shall adorn them-
selves with swallow tails and tuxedos. May the president be merciful in his demands in this respect or let
him install a tailor on the campus. For suppose that Harrison R, Merrill and Dr. T. L. Martin would be
forced to exchange pants for economic reasons.
There is, however, no good reason that the students in general should not step up into the code and
habits of refined society at one big step. They should adopt the president's wardrobe immediately. Let
them wear business suits when they buy from the merchants, academic costumes in classes, sport suits
they hike to and from Maeser Hill and. perhaps, as they walk home from auto rides into the country.
Then, when the blushmg sun ducks down behind the desert horizon, let the students place about
their select and smooth forms the dinner jacket for evening study or for infoi<mal visiting after dinner, as
was the wont and habits of their pioneer ancestors. At formal functions — and may they be frequent
let them appear in the swallow tail, and the high silk hat. and the spats, and the patent leather shoes. In
order that the costume may have its proper setting, let the students swing polished canes about their heads
as they walk to and fro at social functions. Also let their hands never be ungloved except at suitable
moments.
In all gatherings, where men and women meet, friendliness should be tempered with formality, lest
it become familiar. The weeds of culture should be such as will keep people safely apart, and permit them
to observe each other's externals at great distances, for distance lends liberty to the imagination, and
romance has no chance to work at close-up points.
Yes, when the history of Brigham Young University is seen from the perspective of years to come,
the school year 1927-28 will stand out as the turning point, when the old school started on its career of
culture and collegiate practices. Let us give thanks. — The Editor.

To dedicate a publication such as the Bunyon to any one is, according to Bud Fisher, like naming a
cross-eyed kid after somebody. But Bud had an easier time than I. because he dedicated his book
to the guy who ran off with his sweetheart. Not having a feminine entanglement, I have been at a loss
until finally a possible solution has arrived.
When we check back over the years and trace down all the devilment which has occurred, nine times
out of ten. the leads end at the same source. The chief instigator of humor, trouble, devilment, practical
jokes, et cettera. is well known to most of us. being none other than our friend and accomplice. George
K. Lewis, alias Georkee. To him I dedicate this volume.
Some reports have it that he was born at the B. Y. U.. but tracing his birthplace and checking with
his mother. I am happy to say that this statement is false. He did. however, spend many years here and
it seems he took out his degree in a course of time. He was an intimate friend of Karl G. Maeser and he
loves to tell of the time when he took Alice Reynolds to her graduation exercises. It was he who tossed
a monkey wrench into the cogs of the machinery and delayed the laying of the corner stone of the Maeser
Memorial. He also startled the whole institution by giving out the starting information that not a single
window on the second story of the Educational Building was licked — not even the ladies' rest room.
"When did you really first start going to the B. Y. U.?" I asked him.
"Well sir," he began reminiscently. "It was way back when the tuition was twelve dollars and fifty
cents and the big dipper was just a collapsible cup and the dog star, but a new-born pup. In fact. I can
remember most all the incidents of the early days of the University, except when Professor Poulson used
to cuss the teachers for piling on more work."
He was well liked around the school, especially by the ladies. His shiekish appearance, caused many
a young lady's heart to leap and slip, but none could phase him until a young lady who was collecting
antiques, came along and fell for his rare old mug. He was recognized as Professor Eastmond's pet stu-
dent and an intimate acquaintance of Prof. T. C. V. Romney, as was shown by the amount of time he
spent in Romney's private office. Prof. Romney even petitioned for another chair, because Georkee was
always occupying the only extra one he had.
The faculty had two special sessions to try and determine how much rent should be paid by Lewis
for his spot on the President's carpet which he occupied with monotonous regularity.
"Didn't you ever get tired and wish to leave the school.""" he was asked.
"Only once. " he returned. "And that was when Prof. Romney, in a fit of anger ordered mc to cither
go to school or get off the campus. That was the only time I came near leaving home."
He was often seen carrying large stacks of books to and from the Library, but we didn't find out her
name until later.
He enjoyed life here for many years and had he not left in 1927 it would have kept him jumping to
graduate during leap year. Being a true patriot his only regret as he hung onto the school year after year,
was that he had only one life to give to his college.
"There is only one wish 1 would make." he said at parting. "That is that when I die I want my
body to be cremated and my ashes mixed with the sweeping compound and used on the halls of the
University, so that my spirit may hover over the old ruins and I will feel at home throughout all eternity."

A PAGE FROM THE FAMILY ALBUM
From safety pins to suspenders might safely be applied to
the above snapshots. However, will not attempt to really
give a name to the above, because we are rather rushed for
time and we can't think of one anyway. But by way of
explanation, we will state that the above pictures are
authentic and guaranteed to be genuine, if not pure. If
you will look them over carefully, you will readily see or
guess who is the principal character in this great Meller-
drama. Since this section is dedicated to our friend Georkee.
we are showing pictures of him from the milk-bucket age
to the boy scout period.
In the first picture, it may be necessary to point out
which one is he. so the reader will not be confused. The
one between the ladies (as usual) is Geork — not the burro.
His four-footed friends may have had some influence upon
his later life. (We're not referring to his ears.) Next we
find him in the milk-bucket (on the University farm)
waiting for breakfast. As usual he is first in line where
eats are concerned. Then we see him celebrating Christmas
with the ladies, looking rather disgusted as he sees it a tea
party. He doesn't mind tea. but he's from Arizona, not
Boston. Being a good mixer, he is always in the swim
and we see him at his old tricks, imitating Earl Carrol and
annoying the ladies in the bath tub. Just observe the ex-
pression of disgust where he stands with the hoe, realizing
that the time has arrived, when he must dig in and work
for a living. The next picture shows him first giving vent
to his criminal tendencies when he was caught (and
clouted) when in the sugar bowl. The picture almost
looks like a flash snap and we can see that even at that
early age he was becoming acquainted with night life.
Doesn't he look sweet in dresses i" Just notice the center
picture and observe the graceful form and pigeon toes. He
claims that he had just slipped that on. because his sister
had borrowed his trousers while he slept. The corner pic-
ture proves that even in his early dates, he had a pull with
the ladies. (Another version states that he began making
an ass of himself for the ladies at that early date. ) But
then his mother informs us that she bought him a tool chest
so he could become an artist — not an artisan. However,
she is still sadly disappointed. The picture in the scout
uniform shows why he has always had such an aversion to
the army. It's a cruel world, and if any one should show
pictures of me like this, I'd carry them up to the 82d floor
of the "Woolworth building and — here wait a minute
Geork — I'd give them a nice ride down on the elevator
and buy them a chocolate malted milk — so there. When
do we eat?

The Old Grad Visits the Campus
A^" Y, how times have changed 1 When I first came to Prove, the chief institution was seen on the
^^*- foot of the eastern hills. Now, the young chaps refer to it as the East Side High and the Ware-
house Academy, has become a full-fledged University, dragging a street along with it. Did roads have
been covered with cement and great trees have been cut down for telephone lines. Traffic! I remember
when Bullock's bull scared Holbrook's spanking team of mares and they had a runaway on Center street,
and made so much noise, that half the town came out of the saloons and watched young Swenson catch
them on his pinto pony. And later, a one-horse street car brought the boys and girls up to the Academy
for a nickel a ride. There was nothing yellow about transportation in those daysl It was nothing un-
common to see East Provo and West Provo driving real race horses at a healthy gait. My, what a change!
Look at the girls and boys now-a-days. When I was in college, all the school boys used to wear
derby hats, baggy clothes and square-toed shoes. And their hair looked like a mop-cloth. The old men
wore beards down to their waists. And the girls! Their hair was five feet long and was filled with rats.
Dresses trailed the ground and their sleeves had enough cloth in 'em to make a modern girl's dress! When
I was a boy. if a man hid behind a woman's skirt, he was a coward, if he can do it now-a-days, he's a
magician. We used to sit on the bench on the bank corner and enjoy windy days. I don't think the young
fellers appreciate the times they're living in. The other day I saw a girl's track meet. Imagine my Ma
lettin' her daughter appear in public without twenty yards of cloth draped all over her! And we used to
put more sole and less cheek into our dancing! The present-day wrestler can learn more holds from an
audience than was known to a professional wrestler, when I was a boy. And the women used to pad fore
and aft. They don't take up near so much room as they used to, and I guess that's because we're con-
serving resources and they want to help all they can. I once got my ears boxed darn hard, because I
peeked through the keyhole and saw my .=ister put a little powder on her nose. The other evening, twenty
girls in the first four rows of our church powdered their whole faces, while the choir leader led the con-
gregation in the Doxology! My, times have changed! And gum cost lots more then, than it does now.
Men used to do all the talkin' in public; now they're taking to writing, so as to preserve part of their
vocabulary. It used to be unlady-like to discuss public affairs, now the women are fluent on all Dam
projects. The men used to govern the States, as well as home, now they are permitted to enjoy one-half
of their clubs. Women are being hired in the schools as fast as the men are being fired. It won't be long
now, until you boys will be staying home and tending to one child, until it is old enough to be sent to the
primary, where the public school system will free you from further obligations. When a woman married
a man in my days, it usually lasted through a long period of years, until the couple got fairly acquainted
with each other. But now!! I was readin' in the paper, the other day, that for every three marriages,
there was one that was followed by a divorce. Seems like that's where you young 'uns aren't living up to
your privileges and opportunities. It doesn't fit my teachings to have about one-fourth of our children
without both their parents.
Yes, times have changed! And I believe I'd rather be a young fellow of your day, than one of mine,
but this much I'll say, liberty shouldn't be synonomous with abuse. Some of the boys who used to horse
race arc still the best example of manhood. But our mothers' sacrifice taught much that should never die
Live today, but honor the past.

And then came my last year in College
(Friends and Prof's all hoped 'twas the last)
I was tired and worn out with women
And Cupid's flag hung at half-mast.
I crammed, studied, copyed, and worked sir!
As a degree loomed faintly in view.
So a few short months later I said "Good bye Alma Mater,
I've learned about women from you!"
What do Freshmen ladies think?
No one ever knows.
What of Soph's and Juniors?
Just the same I s'pose.
For when it comes right down to facts
Whether discussing thoughts or sins.

THE SADIES
By Quippling {With Apologies)
I've taken my fun where I've found "IT"
I've loved, motored, necked in my time.
I've found fun in picking up sweethearts
But few of the lot were prime.
One was a well painted Senior,
And one was a Junior from Cal.
One was a shy little cross-country lass —
Heaven help the poor studious gal.
Now I am a good hand with the ladies.
I can handle good, bad, tame, and wild.
But I sure draw the line and I will every time
At another Co-ed child.
I was a young'un at college.
I hardly knew how to begin
To become well in touch with the ladies —
Till the well painted kid broke me in.
Faster'n me, but I trailed her.
Stepped high and wide, I did sir!
It seemed a good joke, to always be broke,
But I learned about women from her.
Then as a Sophomore in College
I began looking round for a gal.
And I took with a baby faced Senior,
A sweet little Sheba from Cal.
Lively, vivacious, and willful,
A fiery vixen she were.
And by all the dams, I flunked all exams! But —
I learned about women from her.
Somehow I was rated a Junior,
Or I might have yet been lower class,
And I got me a sweet little Sophomore,
A shy little cross-country lass.
She taught me the comforts of home life.
From which pleasures I ne'er wish to stir.
But she biffed me in haste, as my arm clutched her waist
And I learned about women from her!
It was just a game of hearts, of which he was rapidly
growing weary. He had been interested at first, but there
were too many. Hearts were his for the asking, some he
had to reach out for. but always they were his. Some he
kept awhile, fondling them, only to turn them loose again
when he wearied. Then the queenly one came to him,
dark and sinister. Like all the rest she was his from the
start. From the first he feared her. He must rid himself
of her at any cost. And even as he thought she came to
him again, all alone. He held her close to him, running
his fingers over her satiny face. His chance had come to
cast her from him forever. A wicked gleam was in his
eye, and his face lighted with a look of triumph. His
change had come. He cast her from him saying, "Away
deceitful witch, away from me forever."
He sat back and breathed easier, relief showed upon his
destorted face. "I thought I would get caught with that
damn queen of spades." he quoth.
It was just a game of hearts at a half a cent a point.

I was taken for a trimming yesterday and still I figure
that I got my money's worth. When I feel a chronic tick-
ling at the back of my ears, I know that it is time for the
fort-nightly visit to the tonsorial parlor. No, dear reader,
that is not where a throat specialist awaits those with a
down-in-the-mouth feeling, it is where you get your hair
cut. Not only a hair cut but also something to put on it
to make it grow fast so you'll have to hurry back and have
it done all over again.
These tonsorial artists know their colors as well as their
patrons because they appeal to the little shavers with a big
stick dolled up like peppermint candy and starts them in
early at a habit thai is seldom overcome unless they join

Lips that touch liquor shall never touch mine — •
Meaning liquor, of course, and not lips.
Though girls carry theirs under knee garter bands,
Boys still carry theirs on their hips.
I've hidden my liquor in a place that is safe.
When I take any with, it's inside.
I'll admit that I'm selfish and the boys they are vexed.
But good liquor I am loathe to divide.

WHY FEED THE BABY ONIONS.''
Our baby then was sweet sixteen
So sweet and so demure.
We planned and schemed the long years through
To keep her sweet and pure.
Where ere she went her mama went
We watched her every day.
And —
We fed the baby onions just to keep the shleks away!
She had a form like Venus
And her smile was just divine.
The pucker of her rose red lips
Just thrilled like rare old wine.
One look into her deep brown eyes
Just — Well now, need I say.''
We fed the baby onions, to keep the shieks away.
We gave her everything she wished
And onions, old and new.
We gave her clothes and cars and cash
Barred nothing 'cept home-brew.
But then the worse it came to worse
The news it made me flop.
A Dago liked those garlic smells
And she ran off with a Wop!

The Hi-Power Girl, or Why Asylums Are Full
By Glynn Deveraux
It wouldn't be the act of a gentleman to betray the
name of the girl in this heart-breaking epic, but suffice it
to say that she had those, this incident taking place before
Elenore Glynn invented it. For the sake of this tale we
will call her Semantha. She was very lovely, this fair
thing, so naturally I was attracted, because her father was
a real estate agent, and I wanted grounds for my case.
To add to her charm she was fortunate enough to have a
car of her own. The attraction seemed to be mutual, I
having a monopoly upon the local liquor business, and
carrying a goodly bank balance at the time. This intro-
duction isn't particularly material, but being a landscape
gardener I must have my background.
Seven-thirty, one glorious evening, just as the sun was
setting behind the purple-tinted mountains in the west, this
fair damsel chiffnered her benzene buggy up in front of
the old man's residence. Alighting daintily she tripped up
the path, missing the mud puddles, to the front door. The
old man knocked the ashes from his pipe, took a bite of
Climax, spat at the coal bucket and missed it, then arose to
open the door upon the most glorious vision that human
eyes have ever beheld.
Her mission was simple, or that's how it sounded to the
old man at least. A lounge lizzard had been bothering her,
and she had come down to get some snake-bite. She pro-
posed that I take a ride with her. When I came to. I was
seated beside this fair thing. I looked around me. Thirty
miles from the nearest gas station. Primeval was the
country which greeted my eyes. The moon was up now,
shimmering through the milk weed plants, casting weird
and fantastic shadows upon the bug laden grass which
encircled the stocks of these obnoxious weeds.
It was an opportunity long sought. The moon over-
powered me. Slowly my left arm found its way about her
waist. She yielded. I placed a kiss upon her brow, next
time lowering my aim, to the satisfaction of both. My
heart was pounding like the engine of a 1914 Ford. Hours
went by like minutes. Morning was nearing when at last
she gasped. "Do you really love me?"
"Yes, dearest," I faltered. "I would do anything in the
world for you."
"Anything?" She cooed.
"Yes, anything,' I said desperately.
"Then buy that dry farm that my father has been trying
to sell you," she said in a business-like way.
A sickening sense of disgust swept me. "How many
sales does this make for you this week?" I ventured.
"Seventeen, embracing five hundred acres, and fifteen
customers. " she said proudly.
I heard the key click in the ignition, later I found my
way up the front steps and thus to bed. Well I've never
been the same since, and I grow older every day. — Moral:
Be kind to dumb animals.

KATTY KITTIES
THE above cut was taken from a color drawing, but the results makes Tarbo look positively sick. He seems
very pale and meek for some reason. Leap year probably having something to do with it. Why even Clco
refused to be in the same picture with him. They are really very nice kitties, though some people cannot
tell them apart. For the benefit of those who can't tell which is which, we will let you in on a secret. Merely go
up to their cage and toss a piece of meat in to them. If he picks it up. it's Tarbo, but if she picks it up it's Clco.
We have named Tarbo so the reader will not be confused.
Of course we all know that Tarbo is taken from the Indian word, meaning Brigham Young and Cleo is short
for Cleopatra. Just think! The Shiek of the Plains and the Sorceress of the Nile. What a combination! But
they are very well behaved cats when Glenn and Georkee isn't around. They arc now approaching three years of
age and full growth. Both of them are in excellent health, even if Tarbo docs have Indian blood in him. (He bit
one of his trainers, once.) Being wonderful spccimans of catdom. they should not be overlooked when one strolls
around the foot of Maeser Hill. Without many worries, they live in happy oblivion even though they do have a
scrap once in a while. Why one day Cleo biffed Tarbo a smack on the side of the ear that made him yeowl!
"What did you do that fur?" asked Tarbo. in cat language.
"Cat fur! " sn-a-a-ed Cleo. wittily. "To make a pair of kitten breeches."
But being a modern cat and having read all of A Sap's Fables and the True Story Magazine, Tarbo still refuses
to be a cat's paw.

Nelson was arrested and lodged in

was given to him for a wedding

that the}- also mistrusted h'm on the

jiartial, and unfair in their selection
of new members.

tence in silence, without any great
.-how of emotion. .After recover-
ing his balance enough to speak, he
turned to his right hand man, Alton
J. Hayes and said, "Now man to

SAN QUENTIN, Calif. ( AP) —
According to dispatches received
from here last night C. Irwin, alias
Star Nelson, is reported to have
escaped from this institution today
by digging a hole under the swim-

sewer into the sea. It was impos-
sible to pick up any clue from the
ocean but it is believed by the police
that the young man headed for San
l^'rancisco.
Nelson, who has been doing a
term of \? years for continued en-
croachment upon the rights of free
voung girls, is one of the institu-
tion's worst criminals, refusing to
work, stealing the silverware and
making it miserable for the other
prisoners by going out into the sticks
and pulling faces at them. Nelson is
a \ery accomplished young man and
may be found in the best of society
until he gives himself away by fa-
voring the youngest girls he can
find. He is five feet '■) inches tall,
weighs 150 pounds and has bright
red hair (which may be dyed to any
color as he is very clever at decep-
tion ) . When he smiles he portrays
a good set of second hand teeth back
of which is a scarred tongue.

of neighboring states are asked to
keep a sharp lookout for him and to
watch their young girls. He may
appear at .-uiy time disguised in any

The police started the search with
blood hounds but were disappointed
as the young man is reported not to
have halatosis and his trail cannot
lie followed. However, this may be
just one more of his clever decep-
tions, it is almost certain that he has
pyorrhea.
Any information which would
lead to the apprehension of this atro-

SOPPED BY THE CAMPUS SOAK
Once upon a time there was a College boy who didn't
smoke, drink, cuss, play pool, dance, or care a whoop about
women. But remember, that was once upon a time.
I was nervous. There's no use denying it. As nervous
as a Collegian with a strange Bootlegger. I had been listen-
ing to his sobbing and crying until I could stand it no
longer. Approaching him I asked. "What's the trouble,
old man.'" Fresh wails burst forth and when he finally
calmed enough to speak he sobbed. "I just found a good
recipe for home brew and — and — I ain't got no home!"
"What! have you been drinking.'" I asked sharply.
"I sometimes wonder," he returned, sadly.
"Have you ever tried eating candy as a substitute for
liquori"" I asked.
"It may be all right." he returned wearily, "but candy
never makes me want to sing 'Sweet Adeline.'
He leaned toward me and whispered in my ear.
"You're j'ight!'' I said, glancing neirvously up the
street. "A drink in time prevents confiscation."
"Tee hee," he giggled. "Eat, drink, and be merry — "
" — And you'll soon be drunk." I added.
"Lets sing," he suggested.
"Sing what?" I demanded.
"Sixteen drinks on a Co-ed's breath, Yo-ho-ho-ho- and
the Dean of Women."
"Is the moon up? " he asked, sleepily.
"No," I said. "The last quart was one dollar cheaper."
"Good boy." he muttered as he kicked off his shoes and
climbed a lamp post. "Look before you lap."
Being shot at sunrise is a great thrill — if you can afford it.
By way of explanation, dear reader, this is not an Amer-
ican tragedy. Neither is it a story of two College boys
gone wrong, but merely extracts from a College Humor
Magazine.

A QUESTIONNAIRE OF SPRING
Oh tell mc why do lovers sigh
And seek some dim seclusion.
Why do they stand, just hand in hand.
Half drunk with sweet delusion?
Oh why the bliss, in lover's kiss
When lips meet, press, and linger.
Why do hearts sing when sparkling ring
Shines on a dainty finger?
Oh tell me please, why lovers squeeze
When arms round waist entwine.
And why they gaze in soulful daze
In eyes that seem divine?
I do not know why love should glow
And make the world go reelin'.
But then I see. and you'll agree
'Tis a grand and glorious feelin'.
IF FOR GIRLS
If you can keep your beau when all about you
Girls lose theirs and blame it on a vamp.
If you can scorn a boy when others chase theirs
And yet keep him from going on a tramp,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting.
Or being talked about, don't deal in such.
Or being hated, don't give way to hating.
But sweetly smile and do not gossip much.
If you can dream and not make dreams your master
Or love and not make man your aim.
If you can cope with vamps and blue-eyed babies
And beat these dangerous creatures just the same
If you can dare to introduce your sweetie
To beauties, flirts, an heiress., coeds too,
And yet keep him to you surrendered
While watching faces, pretty, young, and new.
If you can stand to lead him to the movies
And watch Mae Murray gaily flip along
Or Aileen Pringle as the vamp eternal
Yet keep the dear from wandering off far wrong.
If you can make your red lips and your coy eyes
Keep him thinking you're the only girl on earth.
And keep him loving you like all creation
So he'll never guess the truth of what you're worth.
If you can dance with other men and make him jealous
By walking with them, make him raving mad.
Then with a few words smooth the thing all over
And with a loving smile then make him glad.
If you can fill the unforgiving minutes
With sixty seconds full of dizzy whirl.
Yours is the world and every man that's in it
And more, you'll be a super-vamp, my girl.

NUGGETS
The year of the Nuggets would have been a perfect success
if they hadn't have had to bid Snowball Worthington three
times before he realized the benefits of becoming a member of
the auxiliary to the Y. D. D.'s. But then Snowball is a good
man. he has heard lots, even if he can't remember. This group
was most conspicuous for the absence of its famous doUar-and-
a-half party this year. But speaking of a doUar-and-a-half
reminds us of that traveling salesman story — but that is entirely
away from the point — let us continue. There's really no trurh
to the rumor that the Y. D. D.s and the Nuggets are going to
amalgamate, there is really no need of this. Need more be said.'
There needn't be another word, but what we are trying to say
quickly is this, there are just four ways of becoming a Nugget,
namely, be a returned missionary: get elected to office; thirdly,
steal, borrow, buy or rent, a tuxedo and act elite: last, but no:
least, trace your bold relationship — prove that your ancestors
dipped their socks in the same coffee — in other words be a litic
brother. Of course all aspirants are supposed to spring a f st
one on the Sigs at every opportunity. Having withstood the
rigors of the above, you are then eligible to sink everything you
own. including your birthright, for a half acre in the mountains.
Do all these without bending a borrowed shirt and you are as
good as elected.
TAU SIGS
Struggling Co find an appropriate name for a newly formed
unit, the group stood in the rear of a nearby confectionery and
pondered. Smoke curled through the cracks in the door when
suddenly a Professor came ambling around the corner. In a
hoarse whisper came the command. "Toss Gigs." The fags
disappeared and as the color returned with the departing Prof.,
thus spoke one of the gang, namely. Spider Weblj. "I have it.
we will henceforth be known as the Tau Sigs. The name was
voted in at once. They didn't dare refuse, because, as a rival
unit said, "There's only about two of that gang that has a mind
of their own and Cobb Webb thinks for the rest." Of course,
we don't believe all we hear. Any way. they elected Dick Thorn
president, because he was the only four-quart man in the bunch.
They were forced to give up their Frat house, because the cellar
wasn't large enough. They're a fine bunch, anyway, in spite
of the rumor that they would have had Vic Taylor for vice-
president, if the Nuggets hadn't beaten them to him. They
daren't go on missions, for fear they will be Nuggets when they
return. Where do bad little boys go? Join the Tau Sigs.
SANS SOUCI
Yea. verily, brethren, we live our religion. If we get cuffed
on one side of the cheek, we turn the other and allow a swat on
the nose for good measure!
This Sunday school bunch is rightly named — let happen wh;t
will — why worry.' Being a gang of "stout fellas." they're sure
brave. They'd tackle anything, from a training school teacher.
to a crippled missionary. Nothing (?) scares them. They arc
really just in the period of evolution, since the mates made
monkeys out of them. But in spite of all. they're an agreeable
bunch. Their ladies have decreed that they cannot have a stag
party and lamb like they agree. We use the sheepish expression,
because they can't pull the wool over our eyes. Anyhow, they
are supposed to be a unit, when convenient, and things indi-
cate that they might fight just as quick as the mates can say
"Pres. Robinson."

Water, water, everywhere, that's all the sailors drink, seems
to be the war cry. 'This we can readily believe, since we saw
them take watei* one memorable afternoon in the Banvan offic.
But then we admire their courage (? ) and diplomacy in evad-
ing unpleasant acknowledgments. Of course, there arc some who
do not exactly agree or follow the House of Israel, under the
big cheese Groberg, so those we exclude and excuse. They have
honestly tried to stimulate life by stirring things up, but being
slightly fearful whenever they rub fur the wrong way, they
hasten to brush it back and apply the soothing oils. Being good
sailors, they realize the advantage of oil on troubled waters.
Evidently the water cure has its effect.
LES CHEVALIERES
It has been discovered that when a poor lad has not a leg left
to stand on. he joins the horsemen. Not the Pour Horsemen —
the Poor Horsemen, a sort of foreign layout, known as the
Chevalieres. Cherchez la Femmc and Potter's jug. seems to be
the battle cry. They are a promising group, according to their
private books, therefore, they are about to dismount for lack
of funds. They almost had a party once — two of the group
agreed and the rest had individual ideas. Whenever they call
a meeting, they merely lock Star Nelson in the bath room and
De Alton calls the roll. If this group is still horsing around
next year, we hope they find their horses and get into the race,
O. S, TROVATA
So far in our research, we have been unable to trace the root
of the word Trovata. However. Tony the shoe shiner informs
us that is probably of Italian origin. This we doubt very much,
due to the circumstances which surround the organization of this
illustrious society. It seems to be the prevalent understanding
that most of these girls come from long island, maybe they are
all great neckers? The only evidence we have to substantiate
this theory is that "Cobb " Webb, two letter wrestling man.
didn't even qualify for the finals in the O. S. Formal.
To these girls w'c hand the floral wreath, regardless where they
hail from. It will be remembered that they tied for first place
in the Pep Vodie. Our sincere compliments go to them, even
if the judges did have to cheat to place them.

It is rcpoucd that they have two mascots. Don Juan Cluff. and
Socrates (Dorothy Decker's dog). These girls have demon-
strated to the world that stability is a result of evolution, hav-
ing weathered fifteen fights and three successful parties. Their
meetings are interesting, all they have to do is suggest something
to do. and wonder who is going to do it. Don Cluff and
Socrates just wait outside until it is all over. It is rumored
that Socrates refuses to sleep unless Don is there to rock him
in his cradle. In conclusion, we might mention that the
club seems to have a failing for road houses and other question-
able places. (Ask Mrs. Smart.)
NAUTILUS
In reviewing the feminine tongs, we have arrived (somewhat
dizzily) at the conclusion that the Nautilus carry more weight
than any other social unit in this de-ir democra'.ic old institu-
tion. Along with the follies girls, they have adopted form —
ality as their chief objective. As a matter of fact these girls
are so formal th:!t their boy friends have to smoke exclusively
Tuxedo at their parties. Which reminds the writer that al-
though the Salt Lake date bureau functioned admirably, their
Haster formal had to be held two weeks early on account of the
shortage of Tuxedoes which the threatened trip of the Male Glee
Cub to California was almost bound to occasion. To the ris-

as the "Celestial Ties " could not be balked by ordinary prob-
lems like the shortage of men. However, this played an im-
portant part in fixing the date for the first annual "jewel." no

DIRECTIONS FOR A FORMAL
Be sure and wear a tuxedo, and a stiff front, but for
goodness sake don't wear your sweater underneath your
coat. If you haven't any studs, be Nonchalant. Hght a
Murad. Hook bouquet of posies, and dress Hke an errand
boy to deliver them, this will save you money. Slick your
hair down. (It isn't polite to use lard) and make sure that
your tie is a bow tie and fits your collar. Shine shoes, and
be careful to remove all protruding tacks from the soles so
they will not cling to the floor. Then if your neck and ears
are clean, and the dirt removed from under your fingernails,
you are ready to sally forth upon the great adventure. After
walking to your lady's house, grab a telephone and while
holding the receiver hook down cuss the yellow cabs for
being busy.
When you are finally seated at the banquet be careful,
while crossing your legs and don't wipe your shoes on your
partner's stockings. (The door mats are used for this
purpose ) . Take good notice of the speakers, this will serve
as an index to how much and how fast you may eat. Be
careful and not stir your cocoa with a fork, and for good-
ness sake do not. under any circumstances, ask for a second
helping of anything. Observe closely if chocolate is served,
and do not blow the cream off before drinking. Your napkin
is to be used to wipe your mouth, not your nose. Do not
tuck it under your collar, because if you must drink your
soup, lean over the table, so as not to spill it down the
borrowed front. Try not to make too much noise when
the orchestra is playing, it annoys the musicians. They may
be hungry too. When you finally get down to the olives
nibble very daintily, and eat slowly, because it takes a long
time for Pardoe to get through what he is trying to say
quickly. Follow these directions carefully and take your
own girl home. You are made. son. You will be more
than a success, you will be a riot.

But a club that caressed her brow.

Arlene Harris, if we get the gist,
Has a list of girls and what they've missed.
A list of boys, nice ones elect,
Those who have and haven't necked.
"And is mine one.'" I asked, amazed.
She looked at me like one full dazed.
"My list," said she, "Is one taboo.
To those who don't and those who do."
"But is mine one?" I asked again.
She looked at me with high disdain
And in a cutting voice she said,
"Now class yourself. Alive or Deadi""

The night was dark and moonless,
A whistle at the gate.
The lovers meet against Papa's will,
The hour is getting late.
A heavy step upon the porch;
A flashlight's brilliant ray;
A bark, a growl, a shriek, a howl,
The shadows fade away.
He came to see her every night
The album was their chief delight.
They sat and sighed the evening through
'Cause mama always stayed there too.

Historical Geology, page 699:
"The Gibbons are of early Pliocene origin and have clung
to the ancestral form more closely than any of the other
apes. Between the Gibbons and the monkeys there is a
wider gulf than any we have so far seen, yet we cannot well
say the one is higher than the other. In certain features we
see that the Gibbons are related to the Old World monkeys,
in others to those of the New World; we believe that there
must be extinct ancestral Gibbons which, did we know
them, would show us that these three forms of primates
have all arisen from a common stock at a long past period of
the world's history."

DO YOU KNOW that the Orem Line operates 16
main line trains daily to adequately serve the people of
Utah County and students of B. Y. U.?
DO YOU KNOW that the Orem Line has recently
extended its week-end excursion rates to include selling
on Friday afternoons of each week in order to accom-
modate B. Y. U. students?
To those students graduating from the B. Y. U
this year, we wish to extend our best wishes for their
success in their various fields of endeavor. We have
appreciated to the fullest extent their patronage and
cooperation and trust that after their leaving this
Institution of Learning, we may still be permitted to
serve them.
We have also appreciated more than mere words can
express the spirit of good will and cooperation which,
in the past, has existed between the faculty and student
body of the B. Y. U. and our Company and sincerely
trust this pleasant relationship may continue always.
