THE U. A. C. ALUMN QUARTERLY Publshed Quarterly by the U tab Agrcultural College. Vol. V MARCH, 1929 NO. 3. Buldng Program Before State Solons Legslatve Bll Would Provde Buldng Ad for the State nsttutons of Utah-U. A. C. Asks for New Buldngs. A bll now beng consdered by the State Legslature would, f put nto effect, provde for a buldng and expanson program for the state nsttutons of Utah for the next few years. The College would doubtless beneft to the extent of several buldngs, wth a possblty of gettng a lbrary buldng mmedately. Some of the detals of the bll. together wth ts mportance to U. A. C.. are contaned n a letter whch was sent February 28 to a number of alumn who are n a favorable poston to encourage support for the bll. The letter read as follows: " Dear Fellow Alumnus: " House Bll No. 148, now before the Utah State Legslature. would provde f passed n ts present form, for a buldng and expanson program for the scare nsttutons of Utah. and for the ssuance of scace bonds n the amount of $3.000,000.00, the proceeds from sad bonds to b. ~ used foe the constructon of needed buldngs at such state nsttutons as the Ucah Agrcultural College, the Unversty of Utah, che Ucah State Hosptal, the School for che Deaf and Blnd. and other scace nsttutons. " n chs bref letter c s mpossble co gve many of the detals of che bll, buc c s suffcent to say that the mones receved from the sale of the bonds would be used to meet the most pressng buldng needs of these nsttutons, and w ould be equtably apportoned among chem accordng co the acuteness of ther needs. " f tbe bll were passed, the Utah Agrcultural College would be n lne to receve funds for a Lbrary buldng, for the mprovement of che water. lghtng. and beatng facltes, for a research green-house and anmal husbandry buldngs, and for more farm land. " The Utah Agrcultural College and the Unversty of Utah are strongly supportng the dea of ssung bonds for buldng purposes, and che bll s recevng strong support from other agences. t was ntroduced at the nstance of Governor Dern and other promnent members of the Legslature and s now n the hands of the Buldng Commttee of wbcb Mr. Redd s charman. "The undersgned, as representatves of the U. A. C. Alumn Assocaton, make an urgent request that you cooperate wch the College and the Unversty of Utah n ther efforts to gan support for the bll by mmedately gettng n touch wth members of the Legslature wth whom you are acquanted and have nfluence, urgng them co do all n cher power to put the buldng program n effect. " Ths bll. f passed, would help very mat rall y n solvng the College's buldng needs for several years. t would provde frst of all for a Lbrary buldng, where the books to be provded as a result of the Lbrary Fund campagn could be safely and permanencly housed. Wthout some such defnte program as the foregong, there s no way of forecastng whether or not our buldng needs would be met for many years to come. ' 't s mportant that y ou ether vst or wre your legslators mmedately, as acton, to be effectve, must be mmedate. The Legslature adjourns n 13 days. The bll s now under actve consderaton. " Ths s our opportunty to strke a blow for a new Lbrary, where we can store our books and our treasures; where, n the years to come, both students and alumn may fnd lmtless nspraton. Ths s our opportunty to serve Alma Mater n what Presdent Peterson characterzes as one of the most sgnfcant movements m her hstory. Wre your legslators today. " Sncerely yours. Geo. R.

NOTE-Just as the Quarterly goes to press nformaton s receved that the Buldng Commttee of the lower house has made some amendments n the bll. The amount of bonds to be ssued durng the next three years has been reduced from $3,000,000.00 to Sl.500,000; $250,000 for a Forestry buldng for the Utah Agrcultural College has been added; and other amendments not affectng the College have been made.

Page 2 THE U. A. C. ALUMN QUARTERLY -===-~=======-~~~~=========-~~====~ COUNCL URGES AMENDMENTS New Status for Former Students and Honorary Members s Recommended by Governng Board of Alumn Assocaton. B 'f unanmous vote, the. Alumn Councl went on record as favorng two amendments to the Consttuton of the Alumn Assocaton at a meetng of the councl March 4. The changes recommended are both concerned wth the sectons defnng membershp n the Assocaton. The frst amendment proposes changng Artcle, Secton 2 n such a way as to allow faculty members and former students to be gven the same membershp status as graduates of the College. The second amendment would permt frends of U. A. C. not elgble for regular membershp, who have done some outstandng servce to the College, to be admtted as honorary members. f the proposed amendments were adopted, there would be no assocate members n the Assocaton. and honorary members would nclude only persons renderng outstandng servce. Faculty members who were not alumn would be classed as regular members. Specfcally, the proposed amendments read as follows : Amendment No. 1. t s recommended that Artcle, Secton 2 be changed to read as follows : "All persons recevng degrees from tbe Agrcultural College of Utab. and all studencs wbo have spent. a full term or more n resdent study n the nsttuton. and whose class shall have been graduated. and all members of the faculty. shall be elgble for regular membershp n tbe Assocaton, and shall become regular members upon beng accepted by tbe Assocaton n a regular meetng." Artcle, Secton 2 now reads as follows: " All persons recevng degrees from the Agrcultural College of Urah shall be elgble for reg ular membershp. and shall become regular members upon beng accepred by the Assocaton n a regular meetng." Amendment No. 2. t s recommended that Artcle, Secton 6 be changed to read as follows: "Persons not elgble for regular membershp n tbe Assocaton wbo bave done some outstandng servce to the nsttuton are elgble for honorary membershp, and shall become honorary members upon recommendaton of the Executve Commttee, and upon beng accepted by the Assocaton n a regular meetng." Artcle, Secton 6 now reads as follows : " Faculty members of tbe Agrculrutal College of Utab, who rank as nstructors or hgher, and who bold the equvalent of tbe B. S. degree. are elgble to honorary membershp." The adopton of the proposed amendments would not affect the payment of dues. Regular members wonld become actve upon the payment of annual dues ; and honorary members would not be requred to pay dues, just as at present. These amendments wll be submtted to the Alumn Assocaton for ts approval at the busness meetng May 24. Durng the summer the executve secretary conducted an nves tgaton of polces of leadng Amercan colleges and unverstes n defnng membershp n ther assocatons, and the nvestgaton revealed the nterestng nformaton that a large majorty of the schools that repled lst graduates and former students alke as regular members. n fact, only a few gve former students nferor rankng. Among the schools that gve equal rank to graduates and former students are such leadng nsttutons as Cornell, Yale, Unversty of Washngton, Unversty of Colorado, owa State College, Unversty of llnos, Unversty of Wyomng, Kansas State Agrcultural College, Oho State Unversty, Unversty of Chcago, Unversty of Montana, North Dakota State College, and many others. The nvestgaton also yelded the nformaton that the leadng colleges and unverstes n the country grant honorary membershp to persons not elgble for regular membershp as a means of rewardng dstngushed servce. For these reasons, the members of the Alumn Councl feel that the proposed amendments are entrely n agreement wth the most modern practce n alumn work n progressve nsttutons. They beleve that f the proposed changes n the Consttuton were made, the ablty of the Alumn Assocaton to serve the College could be greatly enhanced.

A THE U. A. C. ALUM QUARTERLY Page 3 Dx Class Reunon Plan Adopted. new plan of conductng class reunons at U. A. C. was adopted by the Alumn Councl at a mee_ng March 4. The plan, known as the Dx plan, and orgnally used at Prnceton Unversty, has many advantages over the 0-year plan, under whch reunons have been held at the College n past years. Under the Dx system, classes that have been graduated fve, twenty-fve, and ffty years reune m a gven year. n addton, n a cycle of twenty years, classes reune four or fve tmes, and meet at -east once durng ths perod wth classes that were n school the same tme. For?xample, 1 n 1929 the followng sx classes reune : 1924, 1914, 1913, 1938 '37 ' 36 35 ' 34 '33 '32 '31 1929 1930 1931 1932 1933 1934 1930 1936 1937 1938 193~ 1 940 1941 1912 1912, 1911. 19JO 1930 '29 1929 and 1904.

To ascertan when your class reunes, and wth whch classes, fnd your class n the column at the left, and follow t across the dagram. The Dx plan s beng used at a large number of colleges and unverstes n the Unted States, and accordng to nformaton from these schools, t.s the most successful plan of conductng class reunons that has ever been n operaton. ts chef advantage s that cla ses that were n school toge.ther reune together.

A. C. Alumn Asso-:aton wll have been taken. Alumn who have kept rn clo e touch wth alumn work, both at U. A. C. and at other colleges, recognze the mportance of numbers n such organzatons. They beleve that all who have felt the warmng and stmulatng nfluence of college and unversty lfe should be welcomed nto the body of alumn- welcomed whole-heartedly, wthout beng bounded by restrctons. There are hundreds of former students of U. A. C. who were not fortunate enough to obtan a degree who would gve freely of ther tme and fnances f they were granted equal fellowshp n the Assocaton wth old frends and classmates who left the College wth sheepskns tuckeed under ther arms. After all, t s servce to U. A. C. that counts, and not, "Have you a degree?'' And let us recognze those who are n13t elgble for regular membershp, and who make some outstandng contrbuton to our Alma Mater, by takng them nto our Assocaton as honorary members. They, too, are one of us. THE DX PLAN Alumn who study carefull y the dagram of the Dx plan on Page 3, and read the explanaton of ts workngs, wll. we beleve, become ardent supporters of the new system of conductng class reunons at U. A. C. The 10- year plan, wth an honorable record of servce here, s, we beleve, far less servceable than the Dx plan. The feature o the plan. that of classes that were n college together comng back to reune together, nsures a degree of fellowshp that the 0-year plan could never engender. Classes ten years apart, havng lttle n common, cannot hope to become very enthusastc n each other's company. The Dx plan wll be gven a thorough tral ths sprng. and wth the cooperaton of the reunng classes, should prove an outstandng success. COOPERATON-PLUS Up to March. eghty-nne per cent of all Lbrary Fund payments due had been pad, and srcce then, a number of those who were a lttle behnd on ther payments have sent checks. Ths s an unusual record, we beleve, and one that attests to the loyalty and ntegrty of alumn of U. A. C. Accomoanyn~ a number of checks have been letters full of a fne optmsm and contann~ expressons of fath n the Lbrary Fund cause. Your offcers apprecate such letters even more than the checks. and that s savng a S!'reat deal. Wth such cooperaton as ths. nothng seems mpossble. THE 1929 REUNON Commttees have already been apponted to make arrangements for the 1929 alumn reunon durng Commencement, and have begun to lay plans for a reunon unque n Agge annals. A number of specal features wll be part of the program. There s even hnt that an Alumn Crcus may be on the campus at that

tme. r s planned to organze reunng classes, c.nd also the class of l 929. The offcers apponted wll reman n off~e untl the class reunes agan. The fact that only sx classes wll hold reunons does not mea n that alumn who are not members of these classes are r: ot nvted to vst Alma Mater durng Comm'!ncment. Every son and daughter of A. C. s nvted LO jon n the jamboree. t s not too early to begn to save your shekles to buy a tcket to Logan on May 24th. AGAN-THE PNK SUP. Much aganst our wll, we slp the Pnk Slp between the pages of some of the Quarterles agan ths ssue, and send them out, hopng that you who receve the lttle pnk remnders wll take out your check books pronto and pen your Assocaton a $2 check for dues. As commencement nears, the problem of fnancng a reunon that you wll really enjoy makes your offcers' har grow grey. You can releve them of much worry, and also h elp them to better serve you by just takng notce of the lttle Pnk Slp. COMMTTEES NAMED BY EXECUTVE BODY Commttee charman for two of the remanng Student Body events of m_oortance have recently been apponted. The "A" Day Commttee. supervsors of annual Agge Campus clean-up day, are Glen Worthngton, charman, wth Arvl Stark, Lllan Orme. Wllam Cook, and Vernon Budge to assst hm. These students have all shown ther ablty by ther actvtes n responsble postons, and wll undoubtedl y provde an effcent and entertanng program for the sprng house-clea nng of the Campus. Frankln Rchards has been apponted to drect the arrangemnets of actvtes of Hgh School Day, the day on whch Senors from the varous hgh schools of Utah and daho are entertaned. Mr. Rchards wll probably have an even greater number of guests ths year than have htherto attended the Hgh School Day program. Other members of ths commttee have not yet been apponted, but wll probably be announced n the near future. THE U. A. C.

Page 6 THE U. A. C. ALUMN QUARTERLY Romney's Athletes Make Far Show1.g n Wnter Sports By Mlton Merrll, '25 The basketball prognostcators of the western dvson selected the wnner and the runner-up n the fnal standng, but the dope fell down n pckng thrd place and cellar occupants. Montana State breezed through to another ttle, the B. Y. U. Cougars took second place under Coach Ott Romney, but the Utah Agges by a sensatonal fnsh upset the sports' prophets and nosed Utah nto the cellar. The season was featured by the contnued ~uper - play of the Bobcats. Only one defeat was chalked aganst the Montana entry. and Utah Agges was the team to do t. The Cougars presented a strong team whch faled to connect when meetng the champons. B. Y. U. lost four games by healthy margns to the northern entry. njures handcapped.coach Dck Romney's Farmers n early season, and more than that, the competton was the toughest t has ever been n ths dvson. The play of the Agges n the last four games of the season was postvely brllant. Two weeks ago the Farmers had lost seven games n eght and had only four more to play, two each wth teams whch had prevously beaten. thetn twce. Such a stuaton s enough to extngush any spark of lfe that may be left, but suddenly the Romney-coached athletes took on new lfe and won three out of the last four games. The one loss was by a three-pont margn. The Agges were the only Utah team to defeat all other teams n the dvson at least once, and for the second year the only team to defeat the Montana Bobcats. Captan Glen Worthngton. Ells Wade, and Theron Smart, all regulars, completed ther hoop careers, whch means that Romney has a real problem facng hm next season. Slowed up n early season by njures, Worthngton returned to form to show hs real ablty. Wade played almost faultless ball all season. Smart mproved wth the season. Davs and Henre were regular forwards, though Tate and Watkns got n severa l games. Call and Remund, guards, and Gunnell, center, also performed consstently durng the season. WRESTLNG Utah Agge matmen, champons of the dvson last year, are busly preparng for the dvsnal meet whch s slated for Bozeman on March 28 and 29, stll three weeks away. n the meantme all of Coach George Nelson's team members wll enter the ntermountan A. A. U. tournament whch wll be held n the Smart Gymnasum on March 21 and 22. The Farmer mat artsts have already lost two dual meets. but Nelson s famous for brngng hs men through for the crucal tlts and there s stll an excellent chance that the Agges wll reman on top n ths dvson. Leadng the grapplers s Captan Bob Dahle, lght heavyweght. Dahle s a seasoned performer and wll score ponts n the dvsonal struggle. Dallas Rchens s the heavyweght representatve. Rchens s showng greatly mproved form. A dvson s beng made n the mddleweght class. Ed Ward wll be n the heaver groupng and Alma Bangerter n the lghter. Abbott and Bran are the leadng canddates n the welterweght entrant. Two extraordnarly capable wrestlers, Earl Nshmoto and Dean McCallster, wll be the Agge representatves O the two lghtest weghts. SWMMNG Coach Lee Chrstensen's Utah Agge swmmng team wll have to be content wth thrd place n the dvsonal meet whch s booked for Logan on March 8 and 9. Utah and B. Y. U. are so strong n the varous splash events that there s no hope that the Agges wll break heavly nto the scorng. Bud Shelds of the ~ Y. U. and natonal ntercollegate champon O the 220 and 440 yard events s the ace of the dvsonal paddlers and Sharp of Utah sn't for behnd.
