A pre-game catastrophe of the I930 ' s was the escape of the cougar mascot. Af- ter the cub was replaced the Y team continued with unequaled enthusiasm. Throughout the decade Pep Vodies, pro- grams including fantastic vaudeville acts, were held prior to BYU-Utah games to stim- ulate pep among student supporters. The progressive administration of President Harris continued. More land was acquired; Allen Hall, Amanda Knight Hall, and the Joseph Smith Memorial were built; the campus was made beautiful. However, with the entrance of the United States into World War II, the growth of the University was curtailed as men took up their nation ' s battle. Beautiful Amanda Knight Hall, finished in 1939, provided campus women with a home away from home and campus men with a sure source for dates. Sharp Y men soon discovered that Aller Hall was a terrific place to live besides beinc so conveniently close to Knight Hall. GEORGE H. BRIMHALL BUILDIN

The big war was over. G.I. Joe had his Bill of Rights and was determined to finish his interrupted education. President Howard S. McDonald had to face the problem of expanding the campus facili- ties to provide for the vastly enlarged student body. Student housing facilities were increased with the erection of Cam- pus Dormitory for women. Surplus Army barracks were moved in and became the veteran ' s housing unit known as Wymount Village. A health center, a new cafeteria, a larger bookstore, a speech center, and the K.B.Y.U. broadcasting station have brought increased services to the students. Classroom space was doubled with the erection of the magnificent Physical Sci- ence Building, while basketball fans eagerly awaited the completion of the Fieldhouse. As Ernest L. Wilkinson took over as Presi- dent, it was apparent that the University was well on the way in a new era of pro- gress and development. Rapidly nearing completion is the 7100-seat Fieldhouse which will at long last provide a home for the potent Cougar casaba squads. It was a memorable day when ground was bro- ken for the new $2,000,000 Physical Science Building. The year of the big snow will long be re- membered by students of the Y during the winter of 1949.
