Claude £ewis In expressing yourselves through your annual year book, you make a permanent record of many of the richest moments you have lived thus far. And it is because these are mostly of a nature to give you hope and high aspirations that you cherish them and find so much delight in recording them in this enduring form. 1 am glad to he counted in as part of this year's record and wish to express my sincere desire for the welfare and ultimate happiness of every one comprising the splendid student body of the Provo High School. We are fully justified in being proud of the record you have made. It is filled with worthy projects efficiently carried out and brilliant activities that have won praise and admiration for your school. The initiative and resourcefulness you have shown bespeak a splendid preparation for the larger and graver responsibilities of life. It is such initiative and resourcefulness as you possess, combined with a fine sense of social responsibility and a public spirit that stands for the upward march of humanity, that will make possible a fuller realization of America’s ideals. My best wishes are with you for a triumphal journey through life. Pane Twelve (greetings from 'Pri?icipal £. B. ‘Jfarm on As the Provo High School grows it leaves behind traditions which stand out as milestones along the way. These milestones count for nothing unless they have in them genuine sincerity and quality which stands for a greater future citizenship. Thought and action which leads toward greater culture and refinement is essential. In order to enrich their training our young people must he clean in body and mind to give themselves the greatest opportunity of developing themselves to meet the keen competition in their life's work. I wish to ask our students to seek the counsel and advice of their parents and make of them more confident companions, as the parents of our young people are of a strong and refined character. Not only must the youth of today develop to the fullest extent the blessings of their inheritance; but they must also have faith in their almighty Creator and heed His teachings and promptings. The school has set a standard and all those who work toward this goal may feel secure that through their efforts, the Provo High School will have fulfilled its purpose. I’ayc Thirteen W. J.

More and more students arc beginning to realize the value of the study of art, and the appreciation it gives. In previous years the art students have worked from pictures, to a great extent, but this year the main subject has been object drawing. This teaches the student to reproduce that which he sees exactly as he sees it. A real interest in this type of work is manifest among the students, and it has been very successful this year. There has been two new classes added to the Art Department this year. One of them, under the direction of Miss Petterson, is a designing class for girls who are desirous of correlating fine art with domestic art. Although this class extended over the first semester only, the girls made rapid progress, and did very creditable work. The other class, under Mr. Barkdull's supervision, is a course in creating and applying designs, china painting, batique work, stenciling and interior decorating. Some very good work has been done in this class also. Mr. O. D. Campbell, head of the department, painted the background for both the school opera and the Junior High operetta, which added much to the success of the productions. He also supervised the decorating of the Gym. for the Junior Prom., and should be heartily congratulated for his exceptional work. Page Fifly-fi? DOMESTIC SCIENCE DOMESTIC ART Stenographic ‘Department Mrs. Ethel Spencer, head of the Stenographic Department, realizing the importance of rhythm in typewriting, has, during the past year, secured several rhythmic phonograph records, which can he played slow or fast according to the student’s progress. These records have already proved their value, and are quite popular among the typists. The students who represented the Provo High at the Second Annual Stenographic Contest held at the I!. V. I'., March 2( , 1926, made a very creditable showing, winning three gold and two bronze medals. This is an exceptional record owing to the fact that teams from twenty-three high schools in the state participated in the contest. The contestants were divided into teams as follows: Shorthand—Dora Mayhew, Julia Sheya, David M. Mayberry. Amateur Typewriting—Max C. Bee, David M. Mayberry. Second Year Typewriting—Fred Richardson, Clyde Sangren, Arthur Zabriskie. Novice Typewriting—Bessie Hatton, Marjorie Spear, Elmo Jacobsen. Those who received medals were: Max C.

The Council is divided under two heads, the Executive and the Legislative Councils. The duties of the former body are to enforce the laws of the school and to attend to all business which requires immediate attention. The Legislative Council takes care of the making of the laws. This vear the regular meetings of the Council were held ax noon in the Domestic Science room, where the girls of the Domestic Science department served luncheon. After lunch— which was usually eaten in a hurry—the members present would discuss the business at hand. The members of this year’s Council are: G.

Thornton Snow Page Sixty-seven Dramatic cl.Art (31 lib The Dramatic Art Club, having been organized in the year 1923 with a membership of sixteen, became a school club the following year, with Miss Mary Woolley, head of the department, as club advisor. The membership increased from sixteen to forty members. They produced three one-act plays, two recitals, one chapel program, and at the end of the school year gave a banquet for the incoming officers. The year 1925-26 has been the club's banner year, the membership increasing from forty to eighty members. The purpose of the club has been to foster Dramatic Art by cooperating with that department of the high school; it has been its desire to aid in any movement for the appreciation of better Art and Literature. One project the club has realized this year is the installation of the Little Theatre. It is being furnished by the co operative efforts of the club members, and we are proud of the fact that this is the only Little Theatre in a high school in the State of Utah.

It is to represent the school as a body furthering the ideals of musical culture and the production of glee work. The Club made its first appearance before the Student Body as an organized group in November, when it furnished a high-class chapel program, which received much favorable comment. They featured a recital at the Third W ard Chapel in January, which proved a great success, and received tin congratulations of the city's music lovers. The organization has represented the school at social functions, religious services. funeral services, chapel programs and conventions. One of the distinctive features of the organization is the adoption of the club uniform. This consists of a dark skirt, a blue and gray slip-over sweater and a white collar. The Officers have been extremely successful in their administration this year. They are: Eunice Bird, President; Christine Hinckley, Vice-President and Ireta Mortimer. Sec-retar v-Trcasurer. Cjiris' Glee Glub I’nye Seventy ‘Roys'1 Glee Qlub In spite of the fact that the Boys' (ilee Club was open to all male students, whether they had had any previous experience in that line or not, Mr. Ernest Paxman, head of the department, has produced a group whose ability is equal to any glee in a high school. The exceptional talent of the members was displayed when they combined with the Girls' Glee Club and presented the opera, The Marriage of Xannette. Later in the year, members of the Boys’ Glee produced a burlesque of the above opera, which was presented in assembly on Senior Day. Many who saw this burlesque stated that it was the most clever they had ever seen. A special chorus of approximately forty students chosen from the Boys’ and the Girls’ Glee Clubs won first place in the music contest held at Springville on Utah County Track and Field Day. Payson came second, with Springville and Spanish Fork tieing for third. In addition to its entertaining in chapel, the Boys’ Glee Club has furnished musical numbers at many and varied public gatherings. Page Seventy-one STRING QUARTET zJACusic Music is a real, live educative force, a fact we can well appreciate by the success attained during the past year in all phases of the work. The many avenues of musical expression which our school now offers greatly increases the possibilities for training in all its elements, hence makes the education through music more vital, more varied and much more lasting. Mr. Ernest Paxman, head of the department, and Mr. J. A. ()manson, director of the instrumental music, have been very successful in realizing their ambitions for the department this year. Our band is composed of twenty-one members, giving a complete instrumentation, and the orchestra has a membership of twen ty-six. Besides these, a string quartet has been formed, composed of Lucile Merrill. Arthur Birk, Marvin (ieasc. and Beth Mangum, with Eloise Myrup as accompanist. The vocal department is composed of a chorus of ninety-six voices and two organizations known as the Girls’ and Boys’ Glee Clubs. The purpose of these organizations is not only to determine one's talent, but to train in the appreciation of music and the correct rendition of it. The opera produced by these organizations was of exceptional quality, and received much favorable comment from those who attended. The Music “A and ‘B” classes offer development in the more technical phases of music culture and are an excellent addition to the regular music course. Page Seventy-two Pa e Seventy-three Junior Prom Among our cherished memories of the past pear, the Junior Promenade will remain one of the most delightful. The beautiful decorations, which resembled a rose garden, were very enchanting. The color scheme of pastel shades and the arrangement of the hall was art itself. Art pervaded every nook, from the canopy of vari-colored streamers, to the paper flower hangings that formed a background for the unusual oil paintings. The refreshment and orchestra booths were arranged to harmonize and add beauty to the decorative scheme, as did the programs, which represented a rose-twined pillar. The grand promenade was led by the class officers, after whom came the prom committee, class members, advisors, and patrons. As the group stood in their final position, they formed the letter “P'. The last strains of the music closed a day that will long be remembered by all those who participated in the big annual event. THE COMMITTEE (). I).

The hall was artistically decorated in a color scheme of black and orange, being symbolic of the festive day. Paper streamers adorned the walls, and formed a dome overhead, the entire scheme representative ol an immense cave, enveloping uncanny corners beneath ensnaring webs of huge spiders. An over grown pumpkin provided the main feature of decoration, enfolding the orchestra in its mouth. Enthralled in youthful gaiety and carnival spirit, the mirthful dancers glided to the melodious strains of Don Tibb's Country Club Orchestra. Witches and ghosts stood guard over the unique occasion, welcoming belated guests and serving a weird drink to all comers. Flooded with favors and carnival rediance, the eventful affair met triumph, and will ever enlighten our memories.

Dancing, the child of Music and of Love, Dancing itself, both love and harmony— Where all agree, and all in order move: Dancing, the art that all arts do approve; The fair character of the world's consent The heaven's true figure and the earth's ornament. —Davis. esc During the past year the dancing class has played an important part in the development of many of the Provo High I girls. Under the direction of Mrs. Decker, the class presented a dance skit, “The Evolution of Courtship, at the annual Girls’ Day vaudeville. Each period in history was represented by the courtship that was popular at that time. The girls, in dance and pantomime, portrayed each type in a very artistic and interesting manner. Page Seventy-six ORGANIZATIONS Page Seventy-seven 1 RET A MORTIMER NITA WAKEFIELD HELEN HATCH Vice-president President Secretary and Treasurer Cjiris' Organization The Girls' Organization has been more successful in its projects and undertakings this year than in any previous year. The annual Girls' Day, when the feminine sex reigned supreme, was indeed a glorious success. A splendid chapel program was given in the morning, after which Colonial girls passed out the special Girls' Day Provonians. The Dean of Girls and the girls’ presidents from the East and West High Schools, and the former presidents of the Girls' Organization of the Provo High were the special guests of the Girls' Council at luncheon. A successful vaudeville was featured in the afternoon, and the Leap Year Ball, in the evening, was the crowning glory of the eventful day. Other major activities of the Organization are: the Girls’ Day Jamboree, the presentation of one of Mr. Campbell's paintings to the student body, and the revision of the rest room. The Girls’ Council consists of Xita Wakefield, President; Ireta Mortimer, Vice-President; Helen Hatch, Secretary-Treasurer; Eunice Bird, Elaine I’axman, Gertrude Partridge, Evelyn Startup, Fern Smoot, Louise Johnson, and Marjorie Spear, Representatives: Elsie L. Carroll, Dean of Girls; and Gertrude Reynolds. Page Seventy-eight (greetings from -Jfrs. Slsie C. Carroll Dean of Cjirls v ■m My associations and contact with the girls of the Provo High School shall always he held as some of the most valued experiences of my life. It is wonderful to watch the glorious unfolding and budding into young womanhood which comes with the high school age. Put it is a grave responsibility to sense that as a teacher and advisor the perfection and richness of that bloom lies to some extent in one's hands. It keeps a humble, earnest prayer within the teacher's heart. Among the girls of the Provo High School I have watched brave struggles and splendid triumphs which will always stand out as torches of inspiration and faith to me. I have learned to love and admire the frankness and fear lessness of modern youth, and to see in tendencies so different to tendencies of former times, not evil but simply a natural reaction and adjustment to new conditions. I love the Provo High School girls and shall always treasure niv memories of the school. My wish is that the girls will continue to uphold the high standards of the school, and that collectively and individually they will always remain loyal and true to the ideals back of the W hite and Green. Page Seventy-nine Newtonian Science Glub The Newtonian Science Club was organized October 9, 1925, by a group of students interested in the various branches of science, with Mr. Hugh V. Peterson, head of the Science Department, as club advisor. The club was given the name Newtonian in behalf of the great scientist, Sir Isaac Newton, and was organized for the purpose of promoting higher ideals in science among the students. Great interest was shown and there were nineteen charter members enrolled. Several petitions for membership were accepted. until the total number was twenty-six. Regular meetings were held, and many interesting scientific lectures were given. During the year a trip was taken to the Columbia Steel Plant. The present officers of the Club are: Verl Dixon, President: Irene Dastrup, Vice-President: Allene Jensen, Secretary and Treasurer. When the Club was organized, Richard Spraker was President, Irene Dastrup, Vice-President, and Marjorie Spear, Secretary and Treasurer. In behalf of the members of the Club, we wish to express our appreciation for the aid and co-operation of the students and faculty members in making it a success. We sincerely hope for a progressive and successful “Newtonian future. I’ai c Eiyhty Debating Team This year's forensic activities in the Provo High School have surpassed all those of previous years, the debaters having participated in sixteen debates. Interesting and successful pre-season debates were held with the West and Jordan High Schools, on the subject. Resolved: “That the Utah High Schools Should be Uniform in Granting Honor Awards for Competitive Athletics. Later in the season, Provo held non-decision practice debates with Granite, Jordan, and Springville, debating the State question: Resolved: That the l‘)24 Immigration Law Should Be So Amended as to Admit Japanese to This Country Upon the Same Basis as Europeans. Provo was placed in a triangle with Pleasant Grove and Lincoln, to constitute the local division of the debating league. Three series of debates resulted in consecutive decisions for the negative. The Lincoln team was chosen to represent the division. Through the efforts of Mr. Harlen M. Adams, the Debating Coach, the Eighty-first Chapter of the N'ational Eorensic League has been organized in the Provo High School. All students wh have competed in forensic activities are eligible to join this league. Page Eighty-one Stock Judging Livestock judging has come to occupy an important place in the Provo High School. Although the victories and defeats of the teams have not been accompanied by our cheer leader and school band, the student body has had a deep interest in this phase of competition. The value derived from experiences in stock judging is difficult to estimate. The greatest value is found in the influence it has in the lives of the boys who train, rather than in the honor brought to the school. Although the Stock Judging Team of this year has not taken any first places as a team, the members, as individuals, have done especially well. At the State Fair the team won third place. Hilton Burch succeeded in making a perfect score in beef judging, thus winning a gold medal. At the Ogden Show our judgers won enough points to make them the State Champions. This gave them the privilege of representing Utah at the National Western Livestock Show at Denver. The conditions are somewhat different at the Denver Show than they are in Utah. Competition is greater, owing to the fact that the champion team of each western state is represented. However, our team succeeded in winning third place, taking three first places and two second places out of the six classes of animals judged. Jesse Leetham and Lloyd Merrill were the winners of ribbons for taking first place. Jesse Leetham was also given a silver medal for being second high point man. The members of this year's team are: Hilton Burch. Jesse Leetham and Lloyd Merrill. I’at c Eighty-two Atljlrtirs (s)oach Cjlen Simmons Coming here three years ago, practically unheralded in the coaching realm. Coach Glen Simmons began his career under the White and Green banner. Beginning a task of building teams from green, inexperienced material in general. Simmons really faced a gigantic task, but he overcame all difficulties, and produced teams that have gained an enviable reputation in all sports, making the “Bulldogs” a name to be feared by other coaches. Coach Simmons has attained an unrivalled reputation. Through his intensive work, and his earnest and sincere attitude, he has won the distinction of being one of the best-liked and most efficient coaches in the State of Utah. Fred Moore’s name can be recorded in the book of student life as perhaps the most successful Cheer Leader the Provo High School has ever known, lie has awakened within the student body, pep, enthusiasm, and interest in all activities. Fred has enthusiastically held this office for two years, proving his leadership and good sportsmanship among the students of our sfhool. We hate to lose you, Fred, but you can't be with us always; so here’s wishing you success, and plenty of it. Page liighly-fivt jFootball Again the Provo High School is proud of her green-clad war-'iors, who truly lived up to their name of “Bulldogs, hy their consistent work and indomitable courage. The “Bulldogs, although belonging to the Class A division (the strongest in the State), presented a fast, smooth-working group of fighters, and achieved a really phenomenal success when the class of material and type of competition are taken into consideration. Coach Simmons was very much handicaped at the beginning of the season by the lack of seasoned veterans, having lost a majority of last year's squad. However, new stars were uncovered, and the team, although being small in comparison to many of its opponents, played a fast, running game, featured with clever passing formations and deceitful trick plays. Three things are required to produce a successful team—Fight, Teamwork and School Spirit. Notwithstanding their losses, our white and green “Bullogs showed that we had them all. The respective scores are as follows: ’rovo ')..............................Jordan 0 Provo 33...............................Murray 0 Provo 0............................ ...Ogden A) Provo 12—............................L.

Coach Simmons, ably assisted by Assistant Coach eight, surprised everyone with a quint of ball rustlers not to be surpassed bv any team in the state for passing, floorwork, speed, and general teamwork. After losing a very poor game to the Alumni, the Provo players lived up to their nick-name, “Bulldogs, by winning eleven consecutive practice games from some of the leading schools of the state. W ith this hastily acquired reputation,, they entered the race for the Xebo division championship, which ended with Provo victorious over every team in the division. having lost but one game, and that at Springville, where an unbeatable combination of circumstances made victory for us seemingly impossible. Provo’s entrance at the State Tournament was marked by the only organized rooting from out-of town; quite a well-deserved distinction for the I . 11. S. Although being beaten by the “dark horse. ()gden, the second night, the Green and White warriors made a glorious come-back, beating both the East High and I'intah High the following two nights, which placed them fourth in the final standing. The Provo team was spoken of as being one of the cleanest and “teamingest little group of ball cagers ever seen in action at the State Tournament. ''Boxing and Wrestling Boxing and W restling, two of the oldest of sports, finished their second year of activity at the Provo High School without any appreciable competition being furnised by any other school in the county. Their widely-spread challenges returned unaccepted, and so no basis of measuring their ability is to be had. Captained by Charles Josie and coached by C. S. Leaf, the team is indeed a formidable group, and we can hardly blame the teams of other schools for not wanting to take the chances of being defeated. W e hope that there will be real competition in the future, so that our boxers and wrestlers will have an opportunity of proving their worth. The members of the Team are: Charles Josie, Captain: Archie Sellers, Wayne Leetham, Fred Rowland and Rowe Vincent. Page Ninety-one STATE' nud Shields Captain Bud Shields, rightfully dalled “W ater Wizard,” has made a record to he proud of. Jle holds seventeen State records, and has had the honor of heating W alter Laufcr and Marry Glancy of the Cincinnati Y. M. C. A. in the sixty and eighty-yard back stroke events. We wish to congratulate you. Bud, and to extend our sincere wishes for the greatest possible success in future years. • — Page .Marty-two Swimming Another State Championship team was Coach Leaf's contribution to the Provo High School this year. Our school owes a great deal to “Prof. Leaf. He has presented us with three consecutive State Championships, and has done more to further swimming as a real sport than any other man in Utah. The Provo High is recognized at the present time as having one of the outstanding scholastic teams of the country, composed of an array of stars, headed by Bud Shields, who are swimming in superb, record breaking fashion in every event. Their ability and notoriety is unquestionable, as is clearly shown by their record. 9 Besides winning the State League and the State Individ: ual Championships this year, the Provo High team.won the Junior Inter-mountain A. A. U. Championship, scoring thirty-five points, the remaining nineteen points being shared by Granite, East, U. of U., and the Deseret Gym. A combination of the Provo High and B. Y. U. stars romped away with the Senior Inter-mountain A. A. C. Championship, with sixty-seven points, their nearest competitior, the Deseret Gym. scoring only twenty-two points. In these two meets, the Provo swimmers broke nine out of twelve existing records, and took thirty-four medals out of fifty-two. They now hold every State record, except the breast stroke. This is the second consecutive time our swimmers have won the Inter-mountain Championship in both the men’s and women’s events. Page Xinely-lhree : IVMU-' '■ ■ a.-'- Track and Jdcld As a fitting climax to a year of unusual success in all phases of athletics, came the sport of the springtime, Track and Field, bringing out a host of ambitious athletes. As a result, Coaches Simmons and W eight had a larger group in this activity this year than any other year in the history of the Pro-vo High School. The members of the team made a very excellent showing at the Invitational Track and Relay Carnival, in which they competed with the larger high school teams of the intermountain region. They also won the Xebo division by a large margin. At the I tah County Track and Field Meet at Springville, the Provo High athletes took third place. They would have taken second, had it not been that they were disqualified in the mile relay. e now look forward to greater success next vear, and the prospects are very bright, as shown by the Juniors taking first place in the class meet. Qross Qountry 7 ARCHIE SELLERS Archie Sellers, a Junior, trotted in a hard-earned and well-deserved first place in the annual harvest time Cross Country Run from a field of fourteen competitors, his time being fifteen minutes, fifty-eight and two-fifths seconds. The total distance was approximately three miles. This makes Archie's third attempt to win the gold medal and silver cup awarded to first-place winner. In finally succeeding, he displayed the “never-say die” spirit of a true-blooded “Bulldog,” plus running ability, which calls for stamina, endurance and speed. Fred Xelson, another Junior, and Vernon Dusenberry, Senior, following close on the heels of the winner, won second and third places, respectively. Others who participated in the event are: Harry McCoard, Wayne Leetham, Jack Ward, Clark Anderson, Arthur Hasler, Harr Washburn, Glen Ripple, David M. Mayberry, Eldred Kay, Leland Spencer and Bud Shields. The Run was under the able direction of “Prof.” C. S. Leaf, and was run off in the very efficient manner which marks all of his high school activities. Page Ninety-five Winners of the Girls' Posture Parade 1925 The Provo High School girls won first place in the 1925 Posture Parade, one of the outstanding features of the ‘ Y” Invitational Meet.
