Devils Tower National Monument m northeastern Wyoming. The first national monument ever created, this gigantic
obelisk of nature rises 865 feet above surrounding terrain and contains enough material for a 16-foot roadway nine times
around the earth. The larger picture shows the Tower from th6 side in relation to its setting. The insert is a view of. the
Tower's summit. Only a few have ever climbed the great "stump". Insert photo by Belden.

PRESIDENT ARTHUR GRISWOLD CRANE
A Distinguished Gentleman . . . Scholar . . . Administrator
Builder . . . Molder of Lives
SCENIC WYOMING
Four years before Wyoming Territory became a state, on September 27, 1886, the
first building on the campus was started when the corner stone of University Hall was
laid. Today, fifty-four years later, University Hall, better known as "Old Main," is
having its face washed for the state's fiftieth birthday party. The building which houses
the President's suite, the offices of the Dean of Men and the Dean of Women, and
most of the administrative units of the University is being entirely revamped to take
its place alongside its more recently constructed campus brethren.
[6|
In contrast to "Old Main," which is well past the half-century mark, is the Wyo-
ming Student Union building, "our home away from home." One year old as of March
31, 1940, the Union has enjoyed the eminent title of undisputed Campus Center. From
Manager Burton DeLoney we receive the following vital statistics : The Union played
host to nearly half a million in its first year. The swank fountain room catered to 1,200
daily, and committee meetings, dances and dinners accounted for another 21,594 guests.
So leaving our mathematics the cry is, "Happy birthday, dear Union, Happy birthday
to you."

Picturesque Merica Hall, wom-
en's dormitory, overlooks the tree-
studded south side of the campus.

As the day's shadows lengthen,
the long, white walls of Hoyt Hall
pick up the last rays of sunlight
and make the building the last to
leave the visual landscape as en-
Like some castle of old the
Men's Hall stands outlined against
the black of night majestically pro-
testing the northeastern approach
to the campus, 'though there be
nothing save tumbleweed beyond.
Up to date in every respect the
Men's Hall is one of the latest
additions to the campus.

date the largest dormitory on the
campus, Hoyt Hall has accommo-
dations for over 150 girls.

By no means the most popular of
campus buildings but at any rate
one of the busiest is the Library.
This many-windowed rectangular
building houses the Law school
among other cut-and-dried works.
The "Lib," as it is generally known
to campus sophisticates, is at capac-
ity output three times a year during
"dead week."
Agricultural Hall plays host to
the potential backbones of the na-
tion. The building contains all the
departments of the College of Ag-
riculture except Home Economics.
Atop we have the mechanics of the
official University weatherman.

The Normal Building harbors
the elementary and secondary
training schools, classrooms of the
College of Education, and is the
constant scene of teachers-to-be
strutting their stuff.

Not entirely unlike "Old Main"
is Science Hall, one of the earlier
buildings on the campus. This
building is headquarters for Wyo-
ming's renowned department of
Geology and houses the University
Museum.
[11]
One of the most impressive of
campus buildings is Engineering
Hall whose majestic columnar cen-
ter rises high above the three-story
wings. The divisions of mechanical,
electrical, and civil engineering ;
the departments of physics, botany,
and mathematics ; and the engineer-
ing shops are all located here.
The Liberal Arts building is
modern from every engineering
viewpoint yet its external architec-
ture remains that of an earlier and
perhaps more romantic day. By day

Home of the campus muscle men
is the Gymnasium, scene of indoor
athletic events. The building con-
tains the famous half-acre gym,
swimming pool, armory, small
gyms and instruction rooms. When
the hard-riding Cowboys aren't out
for gore, the gym is often the scene
of dances and carnivals.

ADMINISTRATION
Miss E. Luella Galliver, M.A., Dean
of Women, directs the interests of the
women students. She is on the administra-
tive staff and a memher of the faculty
committee on student credit, student em-
ployment, and student social life.
Major Beverly C. Daly, U. S. A., retired, is the Dean of Men. The welfare
of all men students is his particular interest, and he is a member of the committees
concerned with their social life and conduct.
[14]
Miss Ida J. Moen, although not technically on the administrative staff of the
University, as secretary to President Crane, attends to many of the routine ad-
ministrative problems.

Dean Carl F. Arnold, LL.B., J.S.D., has, since 1933, been head of the Law
School. In the twenty years of its existence on the U. W. campus, the Law School
has made extremely gratifying progress. It has received an "A" classification by
the American Bar Association, the highest classification given by that body and
shared only by the strongest schools in the country.
:i5]
Dean Ralph D. Goodrich, C.E., has, since 1928, been head of the College of
Engineering at the University of Wyoming. Full four-year curricula are offered
by the Engineering Department leading to a B.S. degree in either Civil, Electrical,
Mechanical or General Engineering.
The function of the College of Engineering is to train the future leaders in
industrial development.
Dean John A. Hill, B.S., since 1913 has been head of the ever-growing College
of Agriculture. Graduates of this college have been taking a more and more active
and important part in agriculture and homemaking throughout the entire country.
The livestock judging teams have been bringing high honors and wide recog-
nition to the University for the past several years.

Dean Pleasant T. Miller, M.A., Dean of the College of Liberal Arts since
1918. The college has three divisions, Letters and Sciences, Division of Commerce
and Division of Music.
Dean Oscar C. Schwiering, Ph.D., is the newest of the deans having taken
office this year following the death of Dean Maxwell, for many years dean of
the College of Education.
It is possible for students in the College of Education to come in direct con-
tact with classroom procedure as the training schools provide a laboratory for the
demonstration of education principles. The college has for its province the
training of teachers for all types of service in the schools of the state.

The student chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers was founded on
the University of Wyoming campus in January of 1925. At the present time there are
eighty student members of the local chapter. The chapter is sponsored by the American
Societv of Civil Engineers, which is a national civil engineering society of which the
membership is made up of recognized civil engineers throughout the United States and
other countries.
The Wyoming Student Chapter sponsors all activities in the civil engineering divi-
sion and aids the General Engineering Society in promoting the Engineer's Ball, the
Engineers' Open House and engineering conventions.
Meetings are held every two weeks. The programs consist of talks by practicing
engineers in the state of Wyoming, and student papers, and motion pictures of a civil
engineering nature.

This organization of upperclasswomen has
as its purpose the important job of Freshman
orientation. Freshmen girls, upon their arrival

FOREWORD
■""PODAY the games, players, and coaches of the 1939-40 season are
vivid realizations. Lou Dunnigan's sensational eighty-yard run against
New Mexico early in the football season ; the selection of Ken Sturman
for All-Conference first team ; Willie Rothman's fine brand of basketball ;
and among a host of other incidents, Coach Hunt's famed hidden ball
play, are all a constant part of our student activity.
But as the years go by few of us will recall the success or failure of
today's Cowboy teams. The games so important to us in the present will
be lost in the haze of time as other games come up to take their place.
The stars of today will fade into oblivion and in reflection only a smat-
tering of activity in the realm of sports will come back to us.
Still it is not the purpose of this section to merely recapitulate the
results of this sporting season. Names and scores that are of vital interest
today will be a meaningless muddle of words and figures in all too short
a time. All that this section purports to do is to present the students with
a glimpse into the activities of a passing parade.
Along the latest trend in photography and editing our pictures are
for the most part candid and away from the stereotyped idea of posed
portraits. If this type of presentation lacks conventionality and does not
in all places acknowledge the most deserving of space in accordance with
their prowess, we can only offer as a justification the fact that we present
an instantaneous reflection of our times. Nothing more.
WYO ATHLETIC BRAIN TRUST
We have it from usually authoritative sources that this coaching business is a queer
game. They say that within a fortnight these faithful counselors of sport can rise to
the pinnacle of popularity and acclaim or fall to the pit of ridicule and dislike. They
can become the geniuses of the day or the laughingstocks of a nation ; all-in-all, their
job is definitely on the risky side and each game that they witness from the bench makes
Dante's Inferno a veritable paradise.
Despite a few visible eccentricities and quirks within the athletic mind, the coaching
staff at Wyoming does not differ in any respect from those that teach the stuff the
length and breadth of this sports-loving nation.
In short, when the team comes through with a victory the coach is tops; when it
falls by the way for any one of a number of reasons the coach's fair name is defamed
and subjected to a sharp criticism that is only to be found in a collegiate crowd that
has a developed intellect coupled with an extensive vocabulary for calling down.
With this in mind we present the Cowboy mentors — Wyoming's athletic brain trust.

THEY TEACH THE STUFF
When not attending to the duties of the physical education department, the follow-
ing distinguished quintet grooms athletes for the red-letter day when they'll he hard-
riding Cowboys out for gore.
In today's advanced state when everything, including collegiate athletics, has been
big business it is rare indeed to find the athlete who hasn't been scouted for years and
induced one way or another to come to college. Hut every once in a while we run across
a lad who steps out of a gym class onto the playing field and shows the other boys up.
In most cases the credit belongs to the physical education department and the indi-
vidual's prowess, of course.
Here they are, hard at work!

A MAN AND HIS DREAM
Coach Joel Hunt has innovated a system of football training
hitherto untried at Wyoming, namely that of both winter and
spring practice. The winter, or indoor training, began in the
middle of the winter quarter and ended on March 3. The primary
purpose of this extensive training period was to mould last year's
unsuccessful team into a fighting body that has a complete under-
standing of Coach Hunt's plays coupled with the intelligence to
make the best use of them.
This year's graduation of Dorrington, Sturman, White, and
Shrum leaves gaping holes in the line-up that must be filled by
equally capable stars if the team is to win games. Although these
men aren't as yet discovered, Coach Hunt believes that the winter
football practice has done much to smooth out the rough spots and
prepare the team for the 1940 session.
We'll just have to wait for Wyoming's windy pigskin days to
roll around once more and see if we can better last year's standing
at the bottom of the Big Seven heap.

BASKETBALL
Star Willie Rothman doesn't
miss very often.
The Cowboy quintet, although not a contender for the conference championship this year, has
proved to the fans, their coach, and to themselves that they have a fine spirit, a great amout of
punch, and definite possibilities for the next two or three years.
Although the Cowboys only marked up three wins out of twelve tries, they have shown that
they can play the brand of ball conference championship calls for.
Undoubtedly one of the major factors in the development of this year's cage squad is the
coaching of Everett Shelton who brought the Denver Safeways up to a national championship
before he came to Wyoming. Handicapped by an inexperienced squad, Coach Shelton managed to
whip up a sophomore studded group that promises plenty of trouble to the conference leaders
when the Cowboys take to the half-acre next season.

BOY DATES GIRL
THEY SEE WYOMING BEAT DENVER, 36-28
This business of a guy and a gal "doing the town" is old
stuff. Adam and Eve ate apples together; Romeo and Juliet saw
a good deal of each other even though their folks tried to queer
the match ; and it's not exactly clear what Anthony and Cleo-
patra had in common. So, less the historians of future days
comment upon our generation as being the exception to the rule,
let's bring forth our noble pair. We dedicate all that follows to
the archeologists of a day to come. Reading from left to right
this is the way it was done in good old 1940 A. D. :
Our hero is calling his gal on a device
known as a "phone." He does not exem-
plify the technocracy of our times since
he is still content with the old shaving
mug and defies the new electric fuzz-re-
movers.
The young lady on this end of the wire
is accepting a date and considers herself
mighty lucky since it is just about the
eleventh hour and she was going to re-
tire. (It is obvious that this picture was
posed since no woman looks like that
before retiring. )

Having overcome the difficulties of
transportation (in her car) and purchased
tickets of admission (on his father's
money), our couple are on their way to
the thrills and spills of a basketball game.
After over a half hour of this ordeal,
she doesn't know what emotion to regis-
ter since the object of the game isn't
exactly clear. Our hero is a law student
and is concentrating on a tort or two.
It is near the end and this is an example of the stuff they see.
It's quite some time since he took this picture and we've for-
gotten just who shot that basket and whether or not it went in.
But by this time our hero and heroine are catching on and . . .

whole thing. Well, they're excited anyway. She tells him about
the show downtown and all the places to dance, but our hero is
firm and they end up . . .
. . . Coking in the Union. He doesn't mind parting with his
money but is sentimental about Washington's picture on the
green stuff. After a time of silly conversation he will take her
home. And that is the way Tony and Cleo got together in
1940 A. D.

keenly. "Perk," who handled the discus and javelin last year,
has been ordered out of competition because of ill health.
When Coach Lantz took over track this season he was
greeted with a turnout of forty men. According to all signs, this

With the return of all but one of last year's lettermen, Wyoming's "Nine Old
Men" loom as a strong contender for the conference championship in our third year
of Big Seven competition. At early spring workouts Coach Dean O'Connor felt con-
fident of a good showing for 1940.
Placing second in the race for the 1939 flag, the club this year will feel the loss of
Billy Corrigan who garnered all-conference honors for his work at shortstop last season.
The infield will find Max Bradbard, veteran catcher, "taking it up" behind the
plate. George Dorrington will cover the first sack, Chuck Bentson, the keystone, and
Williard Barker will hold down the hot corner. It seems to be a toss-up between Lou
Dunnigan and Robert Potts for shortstop.
Johnny Winterholler, all-conference outfielder and Big Seven batting champ, will
head the list of lettermen back in the grassy section which includes Rich Mullens,
Leonard Koski, and Jim Logas.
In addition to two sophomores who show promise in mound work, the pitching staff
will be strengthened by the return of Keith Angwin and Johnny Higgins. Higgins
didn't lose a single conference game in 1939 and was awarded all-conference selection
for his work.
It looks as though Wyoming's 1939-40 salvation in the sports world rests with
O'Conner's boys.

AROUND THE CLOCK
It's not all Saturday afternoon heroism for the pigskin greats. Behind every kick,
every tackle, every block, and, yes, every fumble, there are long afternoons of hard
practice. The brand of football that plays to an empty stadium and knows no reward.
There is no victory to be had and the only desserts are a liniment rub-down and a
cool shower.
We just stopped by and here's an example of the stuff that the average person misses:
Football equipment is a big item in any man's budget
and here we see faithful George checking stock while
the man with the hat searches for the size in a jersey.
After a good deal of towel slapping and practical jok-
joking, the boys don their uniforms and . . .
The command is aon the double" as thev head out onto the field.
Blocking Back Lloyd White takes a calling down by
the coach out on some innocent freshman, and they tell
us that this is the way it should be done.

Many a game has been won on good punting
and Coach Hunt, an expert in the art him-
self, keeps George Dorrington at it hour on
end.
The place-kick has been the pay-off all too
often so Coach Hunt keeps the boys at it.
Landman thinks that practice is
good fun and he smiles as he comes
for a hole in the line. The hole
closed up and so did Landman,
smile and all.
Space hasn't afforded a glance at the scrimmages that are the dirty work in practice.
Nor do we see the exercises, the line-up for a chance at the tackling dummy. But then
there's the mental angle. It's one thing to concentrate on how to run, shift weight,
tackle, and pass simultaneously ; but to remember a host of plajrs that approach calculus
and relativity in the bargain . . . we'll watch it from the stands.

fish tried and tried but did not succeed. With the smallest squad of any team in the
conference, Hatfield managed to whip up an outfit that left no men to spare. Here's
the final tabulation :
Points scored by Wyoming, 59. Points scored by the opposition, 233.

Lost of the seniors pictured in this section will
soon be going through the scene pictured above, that of commencement and graduation.
Some of the hardy souls, however, will be back for another year, some by request and
some by choice. To them we say "Hello again, see you next year." To those who are
leaving may we extend our best wishes for a successful future and an invitation to
come and see us often.

THE SOPHOMORES
1 he Sophomores will be with us for a long time
yet and will have plenty of chances to take part in little scenes like the one above, final
examinations in the gym. The class, one of the strongest on the campus, aided materially
in athletics, the basketball team being composed of three or four starting Sophomores.
Socially, the class sponsored the successful "Powder River Ball." With these, and many
other accomplishments already to their credit, we are sure of even better years to come.

in the above scene are now practically sophisticated upper-classmen, and wouldn't even
consider such rowdy tactics. However, they will have their chance to show their worth
when next year's Freshman class challenges them to the traditional Freshman-Sopho-
more tug-o-war at the Peanut Pond. To them in this great and stirring venture, we
offer our best wishes for success.

Basketball stars, Gowdy and Bentson, pose graciously

From the expression on his face, we'd say Cheerleader Homer Grooman is rather

i^.&a^^ajig%^%$&^
For three years Chuck served on the B. I. in various capacities; and
during this, his senior vear, he guided the policy of the paper and
directed the efforts of the staff as editor. His attitude has been one of
fair representation of student opinion and accurate news reporting
(and a fast game of ping-pong).

Nevus Editor and Editor-elect of Next Year's WYO
The most successful business manager of recent years has been Teno
Roncalio. A sophomore, he has rapidly become one of the best known
men on the campus as he continually drives about in his black Chrysler
in search of ads, ads and more ads.

OUR
TOWN
By Thornton Wilder
Directed by Professor Ralph E. Conwell
The "Jesters," a group of University professors and townspeople, made one of the
most successful of the year's dramatic productions with Our Town, the no-scenery
Broadway play. It was presented in the University Auditorium. University Student
Dorothy Roper played the feminine lead, and many other students were asked to
participate in a great number of the scenes.
Emily Webb (Dorothy Roper) and George Gibbs (C. M. Stebner)
fall in love New-England-small-town-style, in a soda fountain.
Emily and George are married — music supplied by Wilder's cynicism. The
tragedy does not culminate with Emily's death, but continues until she returns
from the cemetery to visit her family on her twelfth birthday.

DOUBLE
DOOR
By Elizabeth McFadden
Directed bv Dr. Louis A. Mallory
Ann DarroWj played by Mary June Reed, receives attentions from Dr. Sully (George
Wienbarg, standing) and Rip Van Bret (Tom Procter, kneeling) as Rip's sisters,
Caroline (Louise Johnson) and Victoria (Betty Peterson) watch with alarm and
chagrin, respectively.
Theatre tradition is upset when the leading man and
woman get married in the first act.
After almost succeeding in murdering Ann, Victoria
makes an attempt on her sister's life. She is again
"thwarted," and the play ends when she goes insane.

Grease paints, lininy;-colors, routes — everything
that is to be used for dressed-rehearsal is prepared.
Bob Rebbe, working on make-up, prepares the kit
and the room for action. Strong stage lights take
away all natural color and outlines of eyes and
wrinkles, causing the need for artificial coloring.
The next step. George Wien-
barg, a member of the cast of
Double-Door, puts on his grease-
paint base, and applies under-
rouge.
Grease paint changes the color
of the character's complexion to
more easily reflect the bright
spot and flood lights.
The final step. Gail Bullock lines eyes and eye-
brows, adds wrinkles, and then powders to give the
natural effect.
Make-up rooms are located below and on both
sides of the stage. The room shown here is the large
Theta Alpha Phi (National Dramatics Honorary)
room, below and north of the stage.
[159J
BEHIND the SCENES
Much of the play isn't seen hy the audience. Stage-workers,
property girls, electricians, and make-up men contribute to the
finished production.
In the roof of the massive auditorium
(1,996 seats), over sixty feet in a diagonal
upward line from center-stage is the spot-
light beam, invisible to the audience. Left,
is a stage "set" seen through the wire grid
which protects the spot-placer from falling
into the auditorium.
Strike means take down the set. The
ropes which hold the outer corners of the
"flats" together are jerked loose with a
whipping motion, and the set is quickly
assembled, or disassembled, as the case may
be. The stagehands are seen at work on the
set for DOUBLE-DOOR.
[160J
The University of Wyoming's stage is
conceded to be the best equipped in the
region. In the picture, right, John Redman,
stage manager, is listening for the clue to
signal members of the stage crew to lift one
of the back "drops." The ropes controlling
the curtains and "drops" extend up fifty-
two feet to the grid, or iron network sup-
porting them.
Below and left, John confers with Matt Koski, stage electrician, over the script.
The switchboard is elaborate, yet foolproof.
Below and right, a stage spot-light is being set to take out an unnecessary shadow
in a room scene.

The Interfraternity Council is composed of two
members from each Greek social fraternity on the
campus and a faculty president elected by the council
members. Prof. R. M. Bourne is president and
Major Daly, as dean of men, is an ex-officio member.
The primary purpose of the council is to bring
about a closer contact between the Greek organiza-
tions and this group formulates the important rules
governing rushing as well as other fraternity inter-
ests. They also sponsor the Interfraternity ball dur-
ing spring quarter.
