CALENDAR Mondav Prer-idfiU Harris relLiriifd Ithiii Bozeman. Montana. He gave us a dandy talk in dcvi.ticinal tliat niornin . Wednesday evenin Orval Hafen. Waller Clark an ' Asael l-andiert debated the University of West irfiinia hut tor an (il)vic,us reason I didn ' t take Lizabeth Ann. •I i alietli Ann was all right in her place but. Epi her place was not at a debate, therefore. I went alone. My conscience birrt me though, an so Friday 1 took her to the basketball game with the Utah Aggies. Although it had been Friday the thirteenth all day we won that game with a score of 48 to 23. I didn ' t suffer much during that game. l)ut I was wary of the next, so .Saturday night I took her to hear the Lyceum. It was Irene Stolofsky. the yiobnist. an after that was out 1 marched Lizabeth Ann ri ht straight liome. Later, when 1 heard that th,. M-ore was 21 to 23 in our favor- well. 1 thanked my guardian angel for givm me the liun.h not to go to that game. The next day Lizabeth Ann went to the citv an so r didn tsee her until Wednesday night when 1 went to h.ar .lulia An.lerson read -.Smilin Thru. Il -.emed mighty good to see her again an I was so glad that 1 Uiok her right up to see the movie. Disraeli. You can see Fpi. to what extent my generosity led me in those days. We were getlin mighty big-headed around there about then. The victories we were winnin ' were mount in up. The very next day we won over the University of Utah in a wres- tling match. That same night Mrs. Gillman spoke in College Hall. I studied that night though, an didn ' t get to go. The next night took Lizabeth Ann to the .lunior Prom !i e had a basketball game with the Western States l.ol- lege just before the prom but we beat thf ' m -o badly. SS to 27, that it wasn t very ' rHeresUn . But Epi. that prom! It was wonderful! Ihe hall was beautiful. there s some pictures of it right there. It was a wonderful party an Liza- beth ' Vnn was gorgeous! .She was very popular an every time l d look at her M.mething went wTong with my heart. That night Clara Todd an Mark Bean surprised us all by announcin their en- .■a ement an when 1 saw the look of bliss on both their faces 1 began to feel a little envious. We were so tired the next day. after the Prom that we didn t go to the basketball game with the Western State Teachers. We beat them, however. The score was . 4 to 18. Miuidav was a large day in every respect. Fpi In the niornin Mary Parkinson won the medal for the .lex oratorical contest. That ni ht Clair Johnson. that s his picture right ihPre won the Pardoe win l instrument contest. mm that day the track men met an had an elec- tion an Dave Pierce was elected track captain.

CALENDAR program an ' dance. Vida Broadbent had charge of it an ' the main feature of the program was the dance of the seven veils with six of em in the wash that Wayne Smart rendered. Saturday we spent most of the day with the races an finally when we did come home we were tired but thoroughly happy. It was awfully hard to come back to school -Monday an try to get back into the normal run of things. Durin the week of leadership our education had been enhanced a hundred per cent but our lessons had been sadly neglected. Tuesday they had the tryouts for the Wyoming debate. 1 thought I ' d try out for it as I ' d had so much practice with ' Lizabeth Ann, but I didn ' t have time, so I gave Sherman Christensen an Drue Cooper a chance. ' Wednesday night Zoe Hansen read the play ' Honor Bright ' in Mask club an ' it was dandy. After Mask club we went up to see the Home Economics an Ag club play, ' For One Night Only, and — well, Epi, the name was appropriate. We enjoyed ourselves immensely that night. The next night I went to the Pep Vodie. ' Lizabeth Ann was in it, she was the mob in one of the acts but her act didn ' t win the prize. The Spanish club staged a bull fight an ' bullied the judges into givin them the decision. Per- sonally I thought the Block Y Skunks should have had the prize because they gave some heart- rending stunts in between the acts. Y ' know, Epi, that was surely a week of pep. The next morning we had a pep rally in devo- tional an ' that night everyone went to see the basketball game between the U. of U. an our Cougars. That game proved to be an awful strain on me. Epi. Lizabeth Ann nearly fainted with excitement an when we received the 33 in a score of 3.S-33 — well. I thought I ' d have to carry her out. The next night, however, we made up for our defeat when we came out at the other end of the score. We beat them 41 to 25. Pase Tupnty-two

CALENDAR nobody ever rode in a Ford for a joy ride so ihere wasnt much need of mentionin them. ' ' The Banyan celebrity candidates were an- nounced Friday, that was about the 27th of February, an ' lo an beliold ' Lizaheth Ann was in the ranks. That same day 1 took part in a commercial contest which was held at the B. Y. but Richfield won nearly everythin there was to win. That night I wanted Lizabeth Ann to go to the show with me but she had to go to the Girls Banquet an ' give a toast so I was left alone. I didn t feel any belter, either, when 1 heard that we had lost the basketball game with the U. of U. in Salt Lake. The score was 36 to 24 an we certainly didn ' t feel compli- mented. We won the next night, though. 41 to 36. We were so happy that we celebrated in a student body dance, which was held after the debate with Wyoming. They tried a new system with this debate an they didn t have any deci- sion at all. I believe I liked it better although ' Lizabeth Ann couldn t see much sense to de- batin unless you knew who won. ' The next Monday. March 2, the Banyan sales began. I started to sell them but I didn t have much success. The next day we won the Inter-Mountain Union debate an lost the wres- tlin match to the . C. which gave the Aggies the state championship. Wednesday. Leda Bradford read her play. ' The Adventures of Lady Ursula in Mask. The next day 1 took Lizabeth Ann to Salt Lake an we saw the swininiin meet with the U. of U. We lost to the state college but ' Lizabeth Ann an I enjoyed ourselves just the same. We missed llie Lyceum number, the Hanson Wigwam com- pany. Saturday, but we got home just in time to cram for exams that started Monday. ■ Exams, exams an ' more exams. We had some awful ones that week. Floyd Larsen won the Taylor piano contest an we won the state cham- pionship in basketball when the Utes lost to Page Twenty-four
