BOWN Student Body President OUR STUDENT BODY administration this year has demonstrated full well that the officers who have represented it have been workers of unlimited energy. Under their efficient leadership, our student government has been a decided success. To Max D. Bown we doff our hats. I Iis success this year has clearly demonstrated his ability to accomplish things. Max has conducted the student body activities this year with unbiased opinions and broadminded views. Max is active not only in student body activities but is very competent in various fields. I Iis success last year as editor of the Provonian will not soon be forgotten. I Iis splendid work in debating is outstanding, while his public speaking activity is very commendable. As chairman of the student body council, he has executed the wishes of the student body in a very desirable manner and has shown no partiality in any matter. Success to ou'' popular president! As he is graduated this year, we assure him of our appreciation for his fine work and wish him unbounded success and happniess 122 I FERN SMOOT Student Body Vice-preiidcnt C' O-OPI-RATION and mutual interest in various activities have contributed much to the advancement of the student body this year. Harmony between the student body and faculty has been very evident this year and has shown what can be done when working to-gether. Pern Smoot has beer an ever-present help this year. As Max’s right hand “man” and president of the Girls Organization, she has worked hard to further the progress of the student body. She has a charming personality and cheery disposition which has helped admirably to crawl over the rough places during the student body’s trials and hardships. During her entire high school life. Fern has been very active. She has been a leader in class activities as well as those of clubs. In dramatics, she has forged ahead in splendid style. This year, she has handled the problems of the Girls' Organization very capably, and we extend to her our congratulations. We sincerely hope that she goes on and continues to be the leader we have found in her. f 23 t Student ffiotly0 Officers PROVO HIGH has been very fortunate in having a group of student officers who have helped to make this one of the biggest years in the history of the school. These students have helped to establish relations with other schools that will last for a long time. The friendly spirit that exists between the West high school of Salt Lake is one which the Provo high can well be proud of and which will do a great amount of good to our school. This year's officers have enjoyed their work in their official capacities very much and they wish to thank the students for their loyal support in helping to make this year what it has been. May the students support next year’s student body officers as well as they have the officers during the past year is ihe hope of the incumbent officers. Those who have worked hard for the school as officers are: Max D. Bown. president; Pern Smoot, vice-president: Hazel Robinson, secretary; Stephen Murdock, athletic manager; Walter Roberts, editor of the Provonian; Clayton Jenkins, business manager of the Provonian; Mitchel Carter, editor of the White and Green; Max Zabriskie, business manager of the White and Green; Ruth Roberts, historian and chairman of the public service bureau; Rex Richmond, dramatic manager; Truxton Purvance, student manager; and Bert Poulton, vellmaster. ] 24 i The Student cBody° Council THE STUDENT BODY council is composed of representatives from different classes together with the members of the executive council, school historian, dramatic manager, and the publication officers. The body passes all the laws that govern the school for the year. The representatives of the different departments carry the opinion and wishes of the group to the legislative council. With these suggestions and desires the laws of the school are made. This year a committee working under the direction of the council has revised the constitution. This has made the constitution more clear to the reader and also a slight change in several places have been made. The council is supposed to have their meetings at least once a month and . t any convenient time or place at the high school. During the latter part of the year the meetings have been held in the faculty room. Those in the legislative council are; Mr. Harmon. Miss Woolly. Max Bown, I'ern Smoot. Hazel Robinson Ruth Roberts, Truxton Purvance, Bert Poulton, Rex Richmond. Harry Dixon. Melvin Jenkins. David Merrill, Robert Webster. Walter Roberts. Clayton Jenkins, Mitchel Carter. Max Zabriskie. I loyd Biddulph, Kenneth Martin and Helen Penrod. t 25 1 SHELDON HAYES Prosecuting Attorney MARLIN GREEXHALGH lodge TRUXTON PL'RVANCE Clerk The Student T ody3 Court ROVO HIGH SCHOOL students recognizing the urgent necessity of a stu- dent measure of control organized a student body court early in the year. This has been most successful, having attained all that it set out to do and proving rhat despite previous failures, under proper spirit and guidance the undertaking can be a decided success. The court was organized Wednesday, November 14, after a “free for all” discussion in assembly to solve the problem of disturbances in student body meetings, sluffing and all sorts of misdemeanors in the high school. Marlin Green’halgh was selected as judge. Sheldon Hayes, prosecuting attorney, and Truxton Purvance court reporter and clerk. They were chosen by a court committee composed of ten students, who also chose the court reporters and drew up a constitution, all of which were accepted by the student body council. The court reporters were: bud Jackson. James Tucker, Bob Webster. Cyril Condon, Charles Thomas, Jim Miller. Max Zabriskie, Merlin Vance, Howard Knapp, Paul Rowe. Oscar Brock and Prank Cox. These represent the four classes, ihree reporters for each class. Court has been taken seriously, conducted in orderly, business way. Sentences have been given and carried out. All those who disobeyed have been severely punished.—Justice meted out by court officials and no partiality shown. “Order and justice”, is the slogan of the court. t 26 ) There arc more workmen in Provo high than in any industry in Utah County. Each student theoretically earns nine dollars a day and the student body eighty-one hundred dollars. The student's development in Provo high school determines the future growth. Every class in the Provo high school is always self-supporting. The class activities of each class are a liberal education in many activities. Class spirit is one of the finest activities for the development of loyalty to worthy causes. Class promotion in the high school acquaints the student with life promotion. Class activities acquaints the student with life competition. CLASSES SENIORS MARRY DIXON President IONE THOMAS Secretary RUTH Al l EN Vice-president FI.OVD BIDDLIPH Representative Senior Class H ARE SENIORS! Four seemingly short years have passed and we have worked and played together. These days are now only fond memories. The friendships formed during these happy years have made them profitable, many fold and will be milestones along the years yet unborn and we will look back with happy recollections upon our high school days. Our E'reshman days were successfully conquered, lead by Gill Hafen and Tern Smoot. We accomplished many things during our next year headed by Max Bown and Laura Pasewalk. The climax of our social career was reached as Juniors. With Edward Sheya and Helen Webster directing us, we conducted a very successful Prom. This last year, we have out numbered our previous accomplishments. Harry Dixon and Ruth Allen have piloted us through our last year of happiness. During our four years of association, we have struggled onward together and now as we stand at the top of high school days, we look back with joyousness and yet, the time of triumph is tinged with regret that we must leave our school forever. To you, our Provo high, we extend wishes for glory and brilliant achievements. Under your roofs we have been very happy, sad, melancholy and exultant. Dear Alma Mater, adieu, and may God bless you. t to t WALTIiR ROBERTS '•Walt” College Entrance Good gosh. where's I he copy' Basketball.

In integrity, ambition and leadership, outstanding results have always been the output. They are guided by leaders representative of the quality of their class, in every emergency they prove their metal, running with smooth machinery, feeding the furnaces with fuel of their courage and producing high grade products in the form of knowledge. As every dog must have its day and every day must have its dog so must the .Provo high school Juniors have their fling. Throughout the entire year running alongside the chugging of the serious wheels and belts, has been a little joyous whirring of the burs and bolts. This is expressed in the clever stunts and programs and parties they have participated in. Especially expressive is the Junior Prom. It was undoubtedly the best dance of the year, having the atmosphere and music to make it unique in the annals of “Good Times.” Junior students have taken unusual interest in student body affairs, having a number of its members as student body officers, playing an important part in executive functions. Next year the Juniors will enter the Senior finishing room to emerge in all its glory as a product of the P. H. S. Mfg. Co. [ 44 i MAX AHR ISK II' m: I: ST A ROBINSON.

II SOPHOMORE class has progressed this year in every phase of student activities. This year of development has been a milestone in their lives for future glories. Next year, the Sophomores will be Juniors and a very snappy group is expected from this class in the future. The members of the class have contributed to music and drama with some very valuable talent being uncovered. Basketball. swimming, track and all types of athletic combat have had successful Sophomore contestants. I n social activities, the “Sophs” have been active. The dances and parties have been well attended by the members of the class. In fact, we are assuming that they will make Junior day next year the best ever. The annual Sophomore day was a unique success this year. The assembly was interesting; the athletics contests were thrilling and the Sophomore dance, which concluded the events of the day was a decided success. Capably headed by David Merrill, Nora Prows, Evelyn Bourne, and Kenneth Martin, the class of '31 has added much to it’s laurels and contributed much to the succes of the activities of the student body. They have loyally supported the games, plays, clubs, and the like. May the Sophomores win greater honor and be ever loyal to the Provo high school. t ?o 1 KATHERINE JONHS DARYI HUSH ROSHMARY HODSON Bl-Al I All ROBERTSON PIIYI I IS ROBINSON Will I AM IIASIHR MAH BONNHTT I 51 ] JOHN STAGG AI.ICH ANN STUBBS Df N KNUDSEN ORPHA KAY MORRISS SWAPP Yfil DA GAMMON MAX WARNER JACK McKEOX AI.EN'E PASSEY I.AUREI AAGARD MAX MeKEON REBECCA I I KER ELBERT STARTUP ETHEL MURDOCK CECIL KING HELEN STERLING SHELDON HAYES LOUISE PETERSON MAMIE JENSEN IRMA OLSEN ARIEI DAVIS IRENE DUCKETT REED VAN WAGENEN [ 52 1 FRESHMEN ROBF.RT WEBSTER President NAD INF TAYI.OR Vice-president DAVID BEESI.EY Secretary HELEN PENROD Representative Freshmen Class DESPITE the tact that they are the “baby” class of school, the Freshmen have forged ahead this year. Despised, kidded, looked down upon, by the high and mighty Juniors and Seniors, they have gone on and come to the second rung in the high school ladder, successful and triumphant. The “goats of the school proved their mettle in all the student body activities They have supported dramatics, entered into music and all sorts of social affairs. Some very promising material in the athletic line has come to the front this year from the class of ’32. There is no doubt in the minds of the'student body members that this class will show some very unique class spirit in the next year or two. In swimming, basketball, football, and track they will excel. The annua! day of supremacy for the Greenlings was one of the most successful class days ever held on the campus. The assembly. Provonian and dance were all under the supervision of the “Frosh.” The whole day was one of the most interesting this year and from this prospect it is evident that there will be some exceptionally fine class days held in future years. Robert Webster, president; Nadine Taylor, vice-president; David Beesley, secretary; and Helen Penrod, representative, have piloted the class very capably this year. Success to the future Seniors! t 54 1 C 55 ] FRESHMEN FRESHMEN r 561 livery activity in the Provo high school acquaints the stiulent with new things. The activities in our school are of a large variety anil they build for well balanced students. livery department has activities of its own. making a department for each student. Provo high has one of the leading art instructors in the state of Utah. Provo high is very active in producing athletic teams which do much lor the school. Our physical educational department is a great factory for the production of well developed men. Agriculture is one of the leading developments in the Provo high school: Provo high's activities prepare men and women to meet the world. i 5l- c4CTI VITIES 4 4 % ORGANIZATIONS Girl’s Organizations RAPID strides have been made by the girls organization under the capable supervision of the president, Miss Fern Smoot. This year a new project has been introduced into the activities of the organization. A creed and code, the first to be adapted in the high schools of Utah was made by a committee made up of Gean Clark, Vilda Anderson, Ruth Roberts, Beth Wright, Alice Facer and Fern Smoot. The annual Girl’s Day Ball was a huge success. And we dance in the Sea And the shells called to me In that garden of romance. We waltzed just once more. On the deep ocean floor Much credit is due the girls council which consists of: Mrs. Wakefield, Dean of girls; Miss Reynolds and Mrs. Gillispie, faculty advisors; Fern Smoot, president; Edda Jones, Vice-President; Vilda Anderson, Secretary; Alice Facer, reporter; Ruth Allen, Senior representative; Roberta Mangum, junior representative; Nora Prows, Sophomore representative; Nadine Taylor Freshman representative and Naomi Smith, I lead monitor. The c Humni THE ALL .MNI nave been a truly loyal upper” class this year. Their support in the various activities of the student body have been appreciated greatly and have been very commendable. In the activities ot the athletes, musicians, and the dramatists, the Alumni members have been faithful sponsors. In the social life, they have been prominent in activity, Although it is extremely difficult to communicate with the various members of the association, their progress has been great. Under the leadership of Max Taylor. Eveiyn Bean, and Tom Gessford. the group of graduates have begun a number of projects. The most successful Alumni day ever held in the high school was the one this year. The organization had complete charge of the days activities. At the business meeting. Lawrence Peterson, president; Elizabeth Gessford, vice-president, and Clyde Sandgren, secretary were elected as officers for the ensuing year. The annual Alumni Ball held in the gymnasium that night was largely attended and greatly enjoyed by all the guests. We thank the Alumni Association for their loyalty and co-operation in making the spirit of Provo high more effective than it ever has been. r fit 1 RUTH ROBERTS Chairman of Public Service Bureau The Public Service cBureau U NDER the direction of Miss Ruth Roberts, the Public Service Bureau has grown to immense proportions this year. The programs have been of the very highest class and have been highly enjoyed by the many public organizations in Provo. This organization was instituted in the high school last year, and since that time the people of the city have learned what a truly valuable thing it is. Miss Roberts and her assistant. Miss Helen Reynolds, have responded to calls from clubs, parties, churches, assemblies, luncheons, in fact every kind of an activity and have furnished each with a splendid program. The Public Service Bureau is composed of three departments; the dramatic art department under the direction of Miss Mary Woolley; the vocal music department under the direction of Mr. Paxman and the instrumental music department directed by Prof. John A. Omanson. It has been the aim ot those in charge of this organization to give all the willing students in these three groups a chance to go on one or two programs during the year. In this way a lot of talent has been found which would otherwise have lain dormant. In future years much is expected of the Public Service Bureau following the splendid work done thus far. As service is the greatest thing one can give to mankind, the unsurpassed development will take place in the halls of our school.

It accomplished something this year, which has never before been put in a girl publication, becoming strictly a magazine in form and originality. Previous to this the issue has combined the magazine and the weekly in one. but wishing to. improve upon this. Ruth Roberts, editor, culled out the usual and wielded together a publication representative of the organization. It featured three major parts, the life of Elsie Chamberlain Carroll, the modern girl, and the prize story. Throughout the annual it was illustrated by clever cuts pertaining to the material printed. 1'he prize story is a yearly feature of girls day, the winner being awarded the medal by .Mrs. Carrol and the story printed in the magazine. Those who were responsible for the editing of the Annual are: Ruth Roberts, editor in chief; Gean Clark, associate editor: Vera Jackson, literary editor: Vera Anderson, features; Dorothy Roberts, sports; Grace Dangerfield, and Eliza Nelson, humor; Naomi Smith, artist; DeEsta Robinson, typist: Alice Facer and Melba Scott, special writers. The business staff consisted of Vilda Anderson, business manager, and Vivian Purvance. assistant. t 68 ] The Historian Staff THE HISTORIAN staff is a newly instituted organization, this being its first year in the Provo high school. There has been a long felt need of a history of the school, so this staff is a valuable one. From the beginning of the high school to the present day there has been no accurate record kept of the activities and achievements outside of the Provonians and the yearbooks. This staff has undertaken to go back to the very beginning and record all the incidents and facts from that time to this. Ruth Roberts, historian and director of the staff, chose a group of students to help her who have met once a week to search through the old Provonians, delve into ancient yearbooks, in fact, they have gone into every possible field for information about the high sch x ls life. Miss Roberts has been loyally supported in the work by the following staff members: Vilda Anderson, Vera Jackson, Beth Wright, Theodore Sumsion. James Miller and Earl Cottam. These students have done excellent work and in years to come the members of the student body will see what a great work the historian staff has done for the schcxil in keeping an accurate record and in compiling fragments of past records, into one volume. [69] Quill and Scroll r |'’ HE PROVO high chapter of the Quill and Scroll is enjoying its second year A of activity. This chapter was installed last year. Provo high school being the first one in Utah to receive such an honor. This society is indeed an honorary one for the student who hopes to qualify for membership must come up to four high standards. First, He must have done exceptional work in journalism. Second. He must be in the upper one third of his class. Third: lie must be of at least Junior standing. Fourth: He must be approved by the journalism advisor and the national secretary and treasurer. Installation ceremonies, for this year, were held March 27. and Walter Roberts, .Mitchel Carter. Val Hicks Max Zabriskie, Truxton Purvance, and Clayton Jenkins were initiated. The officers are Phyllis Miller, president: Ruth Roberts, Secretary, and Miss Reynolds, advisor, and many activities have been entered into through the leadership of these officers. At the present time there are eighteen members of the Quill and Scroll enrolled in the Provo high chapter. The eighteen members who compose the Provo high chapter are: Gean Clark, Hazel Robinson. Alice Facer, Ruth Roberts, Phyllis Miller, Elizabeth Gessford, Max Bown, Truxton Purvance, Max Zabriskie, Arthur Sutcliffe. Ned Nuttal. Lawrence Bee. Clayton Jenkins, Val Hicks. Howard Cottam, Clyde Sandgren, Mitchel Carter, and Walter Roberts. I 70 I CLUBS ‘Dramatic cA.n Club Till! DRAMATIC ART Club is one of the largest and most active clubs of the school. It has a membership of one hundred and twenty-five students who are interested in drama. Weekly meetings have been held throughout the year at which interesting programs consisting of one act plays, three-act plays, lectures and music have been presented. Also a series of one-act plays which have been read and produced by students in the club. The club enjoys man activities. The annual banquet served to over a hundred people last fall was a huge success. A novel entertainment, the all-girls play Commencement Days sponsored by the club, was a huge success. It has always been one of the aims of the club to improve or further furnish the Little Theatre. This year the club purchased for the stage a beautiful plush cyclorama. Money for this was obtained by the untiring efforts of the officers and club members. Officers of the club are: Mary Woolley, advisor; Edith Paxman, president; Helen Reynolds, vice-president; Vera Anderson, secretary; and Bert Poulton, business manager. Much of the success of this years club has been due to the officers just named because of their untiring activity in supporting the club and leading those who were in the club to support its activities. [ 72 t ‘‘Le Cercle Francais” THE PL'RPOSE of the French club is to gain a knowledge of French customs and literature, to create atmosphere for the French Language, and to give an opportunity for freedom in the use and practice of knowledge gained of French grammar reading. Meetings of the club have been very interesting. Besides a number of students who talked on the customs of France, some special speakers who have either been to France or studied it extensively gave special talks on the French Language, the customs of the French people and the country. Miss Clark. Professor Cummings of the B. Y. L„ Mr. W. II. Callahan, and Mr. J. Y. Thornton all gave interesting talks. A constitution was drawn up by some of the officers and accepted by the club. A storv dramatized in French, French book reports, French jokes and French stories were also given by the members. The club purchased French song books and learned several French songs. The officers are: Oscar Brock, president: Ruth Allen, vice-president; Onda Chiistensen, secretary: Helen Christensen, reporter: and Beth Wright, special officers. The French club is growing and at the present time there are three classes of students taking French. And the French Club has a very great number of these students in their organization. r 7t ] Forensic Club FOR A NUMBER of years the Provo high school has been well represented in Forensic activities and the Forensic club has been one of the chief representatives and sponsors of these activities. Last year the club became a member of the National Forensic league and has continued in that capacity ever since. This year a class in debating and public speaking was a part of the curriculum and continued until the end of the first semester when the debating activities as a class was abondoned and a debating team formed to continue the activities of the class. The oratorical contests and debating team drew a number of the members of the club and the experience gained by each member tended to help the club and much ability was brought together in this club. In addition to the activities of the club, a debating council consisting of Mr. Slack, chairman; Mrs. Jacobs, and Mr. Stewart were chosen to sponsor many of the forensic activities. Mrs. Jacobs acted as coach of the debating team. Mr. Slack, chairman of debating and Mr. Stewart supervised all public speaking activities. The officers of this year’s club were: Mrs. Jacobs, advisor; Max Bown, president; Truxton Purvance, vice-president and Mitchel Carter, secretary. I 4 I The c 4 . Club FOR MANY years the Ag. Club has been one of the leading dubs in the school and this year the club exceeds any previous activities of the club. Ag. club initiations began early in the fall and many new members came into the club. The preliminary ceremonies were held about school, the fair grounds, and any other public place and the final degree was given at Mr. Bunnell’s farm in Lake View, with a large wrxxlen paddle very much in evidence. Following the usual custom of former years, the Ag. Club members bought distinctive sweaters which were very much in evidence and gave the members a chance to show to the school their distinctiveness. The Ag. club—Home Be. club ball was pronounced one of the biggest social successes of the year. The porker as an added attraction did much to add to the novelty of the affair. The decorations were also very gtxxl for the occasion and everyone enjoyed themselves to a great extent. The officers are: Prof. Leaf and LeRoy Bunnell, advisors, Steele Shipp, president: Harry Dixon, vice-president; Floyd Biddulph, secretary: and Willard Westover. reporter. Much of the credit due the club for their activity is due these officers who have done much to further the work of agricultural interest among the young men of the Provo high school. r r-1 Home Ec. Club THIS year the Home Ec. club has carried on some very successful activities. From the first day of elections to the final party, the club has functioned very admirably. The girls belonging to this club have derived a great deal of educational value from the various lectures given at club meetings. These have been pertaining to-the problems, duties, and ideals of a girl in high school life and in her future home. The big product of the club is of course to make the Home Fc.—Ag. club ball and day a success. The part of the program carried out by the Home Fc. club certainly was successful. The whole days' activities were very interesting. The annual dance was a very fitting climax to a fine day, for it was one of the best dances ever held at P. H. S. The decorations were original and unique which showed a lot of hard work. The officers of the club. Florence Speckhart, president: Alene Passey vice-president; Ethel Belmont, secretary; and Goldie Spencer, reporter, led the club very successfully throughout the year. Much credit is due the advisors, Mrs. Gillispie and Mrs. Haymore who did much in helping the girls of the club to do those things that should be done. It is the aim of the Home Ec. club to have every girl in the Provo high school become a member of this wonderful club. i I The Vivace Club MUSIC is harmony, harmony is love. The metamorphosis of the Vivace club has been a gradual, but sure thing. Each yeai John A. Omanson has added new folds to his dream, but it was not until the spring of 1929 that this dream materialized and proved ready to emerge, a full grown activity, into the curriculum of the Provo high school. This organization is the first of its kind to be initiated in any Utah school and its purpose is the furtherntent of instrumental music, its study and appreciation. The officers of the club. Mervin Reddin, president; Charles llinze, vice-president; Melvin Duke, secretary; and Ruth Roberts, reporter, have been promoting interesting programs on the first and third Monday of each month. The membership at the close of the drive was forty five students and approximately forty were in attendance at the initial meeting held March 4, 1929 in the Little Theatre. At this meeting Professor LeRoy Robertson of the B. Y. U. gave a musical lecture which was illustrated by the B. Y. U. gave a musical lecture which was illustrated by the B. 'I. U. string trio and miniature symphony orchestra. The outstanding entertainment of the year was. perhaps, the program presented by the Western Music and Art Company of Salt Lake City. Utah on April 22, 1929. All in all the Vivace club's first year of existence was one ot the finest ever had by a club and next year's club is bound to be even larger.

It has not only produced many talented artists as by-products but many of the products in the form of high class recreation and entertainment have done much towards developing the artistic minds of Provo’s citizens. Most of the cerdit due these successes is due the instructors who direct the activities of this part of the great Provo high school. These bosses are Mr. Omanson. Miss Woolley, and Mr. Paxman. Finer and more appreciative overseers are not to be found. Mr. Omanson has always been known to be one who can be depended.upon to produce fine musical organizations from inexperienced hands. Ilis activities as head of the instrumental music department have greatly increased interest in. and appreciation of music in the Provo high school. There are very few dramatic instructors in the state of Utah who have the ability and ambition that Dramatic boss, Miss Woolley has shown as dramatic instructor at the Provo high school plant. Provo can be thankful for having such a person in the school to train future workers in the arts of drama. The vocal boss, Mr. Paxman, was able to produce from many unfavorable conditions a group of songsters who under the handicap of a three-day a week class schedule have produced one of the finest operas in the state, besides having been responsible for much of the public service work. 180] “ Dollars and Chickens” (By Fred Ballard) Presented By PROVO HIGH SCHOOL STLDENT BODY Nov.

It has been an extremely successful year for the students interested in this particular type of music. Mr. John A. Omanson, director, deserves much credit for the splendid way he has handled the band and for the very fine programs he has presented. Charles llinze, manager of the band, also deserves credit for he has done much to further its progress. This year the band has played for political party rallies and the like, and with the money obtained from this, they have purchased new music stands and many new pieces of music were brought into the department. I'his was a very worthy project, because new music stands have been needed for a long time. The band concert was successful to the highest degree, giving a highly satisfactory program to the patrons. Another commendable feature of the band is that all the members have been in attendance at assemblies, pep rallies, basketball and football games to do their bit to make the spirit keener. They have always been on hand to do their bit when needed. May the success of the band be as great next year as it has been this year . [ 85 1 Orchestra AS A MUSICAL center, the Provo high school is unsurpassed. Few people realize the possibilities presented in the high school by way of education in music. A young student can gain a foundation here that he might lose if it were not for the opportunity he has for developing his talent. The orchestra has given many students a chance to find their niche in the musical line and has developed a new trait in them, heretofore undiscovered. This year the orchestra has been very active. It has responded to calls from the student body for many programs. The Public Service has also called upon the orchestra as a whole and upon its individual members for numbers on various programs. In this way, the orchestra has rendered the public a service as well as its members. Mr. John A. Omanson, director of the orchestra has done splendid work in this field. The annual orchestra concert was especially commendable. Trained ears were quick to respond to the beauty of the various selections. From a membership of thirty-six members, Donald Olsen was chosen as manager of the orchestra. He also acted as concert master in the concerts, and has filled this position very well. Great things are expected from the orchestra next year.

(Continued on page 113) I ms I MINOR COMPETITION The ‘Debating Team A DEBATING council consisting of Mr. Slack, chairman; Mr. Stewart and Mrs. Jacob, was instituted at the beginning of the second semester to supervise the debating activities of the school. The state question for debate was: Resolved: That Modern Adver- tising Should Be Condemned. Immediately after the announcement of the question tryouts for the debating team were held and a team consisting of Max Bown and Herbert Smart, negative; and Earl Cottam and Walter Schonfield. Affirmative; and James Miller alternate, were called upon to represent the Provo high in this years debating activities. Under the able direction of Mrs. Jacobs, who was chosen coach, these debaters began at once to form a team which would be hard to defeat and as a result of their activities a great amount of recognition came to the Provo high. iMuch of the credit is due Mrs. Jacobs, whose untiring efforts and skillful criticism helped to make these representatives more efficient and active in their work. A number of practice debates were held with Bingham. Springvilie, and Wasatch high which gave the debaters good experience and acquainted them more with the question. Debating for state rating began in the latter part of April, with Provo high debating in triangle with Lincoln and B. Y. H. S. [ 108 1 The Commercial Team UNDER the able direction of Mrs. Spencer and Mrs. Larsen, the commercial department has done very exceptional work in competition with other schools of the county in dual meets and in the commercial contests. In the commercial contest held at the B. Y. U. four teams were entered and they made an exceptional showing of their ability. The first year type team consisting of DeEsta Robinson, Frank Cox and LaVelle Peterson were entered and did excellent work when entered against teams from almost every high school in the state of Otah. The second year type team, consisting of Fred Webb, Melvin Duke, and Lewis Boyd also made an interesting showing against teams who had more experience and ability. In the shorthand events, the second year team, consisting of Hazel Fletcher, Theodore Sumsion, and Hilda Farrer, placed second in tne competition with Richfield, who averaged 99.7 against Provo high’s 97.1, a very excellent record. The first year shorthand team, Elda Snow, Mary Snyder, and Dora Lewis, were entered in competition in this event and Elda Snow won an individual medal for placing second in this competition. [ 109 ] Stock and Grain Jud£in THE future farmers, cattlemen, dairymen, and horse raisers of Provo high, under the direction of the chief agriculturist. LeRoy Bunnell, achieved a great amount of experience and a great deal of success in the judging contests throughout the state. A stock, judging team consisting of Steele Shipp, Clifford Anderson and Monroe Carter and a crop judging team consisting of Bliss Brimhall, Donald Ream and Jay Nelson, represented Provo high in the State Fair Junior Judging contests. The stock judging team placed ninth in this contest. On January 14, Mr. Bunnell took Monroe Carter, Wm. Jacobsen. Albert Olsen, Donald Ream. Hal Dahlquist, and Bert Anderson to Ogden, where they judged in the Ogden Livestock and Poultry Show. The stock judgers, Monroe Carter, Albert Olsen and Wm. Jacobsen, succeeded in doing average work, while a poultry team consisting of a trio of sorrel-lopped farmers, Monroe Carter, Albert Olsen, and Donald Ream placed second. The crop judgers, Donald Ream. Hal Dahlquist, and Bert Anderson ran into stiff competition and placed out of the money. At Spanish Fork on March 27, a stock judging team, consisting of Monroe Carter. Albert Olsen and Win. Jacobsen, ended the years stock judging activities by taking a third place in this contest.

Leaf, Provo high has two of the greatest athletic instructors in the state of Utah. A great share of Provo high's athletic greatness is due to these two men. Both coaches have made it possible for Provo high to attain a pinnacle in athletic fame that few other schools enjoy. Coach Simmons and Coach Leaf have both turned out winning teams, and outstanding individuals, who have gained a great amount of fame. Especial mention must be made of Bud Shields, who under the tutelage of Coach Leaf has won more national fame than any other athlete in the West. Other individuals who have received instruction from these men and then made themselves famous are: Sanky Dixon, dug” Vacher, Elmer Dastrup, Lob” Collins, Lawrence Peterson, Burle Robison, “Sid” Biddulph, “Map” Nisonger, Perron Lossee, Merrill Christopherson, Elmer Millett and many others. Not only are our coaches responsible for many of the great athletes which have been developed, but they have produced great teams as well. Th swimming team has held sway as state champions ever since the sport has been introduced. Most of the state records are held by Provo high men and some of them bid to stand for a long time. I he football team has always been strong. Either winning the division title or receiving recognition as an outstanding team on the gridiron. The team has never won the state championship but it has been in the semifinals a number of times and has played for the state championship once. In basketball Provo high has won a great amount of success. They have been represented in the State Tournament for nine consecutive years, a record no other school has attained, and every year they have run into a streak of bad luck which has kept them from the championship. This is a great record for any coach, as Coach Simmon’s has placed a team in the tournament every year he has been here. COACH SIMMONS COACH 1.HAI t 117 ] Our Yellmasters I N BERT and Cyril, Provo ■ high has had two of the peppiest and most efficient yellmas-ters in the state. Their cheerleading has been of exceptional quality and much of Provo high’s athletic success has been due to their untiring efforts. Besides leading Provo high's cheering, they supervised the Pep Vodie, which was the most successful ever held. Bert and Cyril have been very successful and the students have become better acquainted with cheering through their work. c 4thletic eMana er FOR “Steve” Murdock the school ought to be thankful. You may seek for years and years and another “Zeus” will never be found. Steve” has been one of the most efficient athletic managers Provo high has ever had and very few athletic managers have achieved as much success as an athlete besides handling the job of tending dirty football and basketball shoes. The Provo high school athletes shall always long for another “Steve”. [ 118] Football THE PROVO HIGH Bulldogs completed one of the most successful football seasons in the history of the school by placing two men on the all-state team, two honorable mention, and by scoring 129 points to opponents 84. A squad of fifty men. including seven lettermen. was the bright prospect of the Bulldog season and by September 21, Coach Simmons had drawn together a group of men which defeated Springville 6-0. After a fluke loss to the B. Y. Freshmen by a 6-0 score, Provo high finished the pre-season games by walking through Wasatch high 53-0. By the opening of the season the Bulldogs were welded into a Scottish machine which took everything in sight and didn't give anything in return. In the opening league game, Provo mopped the Granite Farmers 32-6, and in the next game with Jordan they showed the same tactics to win 26-0. The Bulldogs then met with three successive defeats at the hands of East 39-6; L. D. S., 19-6; and West, 20-0. In defeat the Bulldogs were just as glorious as in victors and critics gave them favorable mention and pronounced the 1928 season the most successful in recent years. tii'M • SPECK GILES BUKE ROBISON SID BIDDULPII DOW SORENSON Fullback Allstate End Quarterback Halfback SQL I NT EGGERTSEN STEVE MURDOCK GREASY” WARNER End Center Guard [ 120] MOOT LARSEN HAP NISONGER HAROLD BAILEY RAY MURDOCK Tackle All-itate Tackle End Guard CLYDE BIDDULPII LUCIAN BEELAR SHERMAN NELSON Quarterback Center Halfback [ 121 ] OLE ANDERSON MAX ZABRISKIE ‘HAM'' ANDERSON WII I ARD WESTOVER Halfback Halfback Halfback Guard ORVIS CALL JOE” CLAYSON “SLIP” SNELL Fullback Tackle Guard [ 122 ] Hall of Fame Our All-State Men PROVO HIGH has been very fortunate this year in having athletes who have the ability to win state-wide recognition in athletic competition I-'or the second time in the history of our school, two athletes were placed on the official all-state football team. Burle Robison and Max Nisonger, two wonderful and hard fighting athletes, were the men who received this outstanding honor. This is the second time “Buke” has received this honor, having won the same honor along with Biddulph in 1928. This year, officials accorded Buke” the honor of being the greatest end in the state of Utah, in scholastic football. Besides being a great defensive man Buke” was always a big offensive threat, receiving passes and punting in brilliant style. His punting was often one of the main features in Provo’s play. Although, meeting with great success on the gridiron, Robison added other laurels to his collection by being recognized as second best basketball center in the state. Biddulph also received the same glory by bing named as second team choice for the forward position. The other all-state man, “I lap” Nisonger, was one of the greatest linesmen Provo high has ever had. His playing at tackle, besides being steady, was one of the brightest spots in many games. Besides being a great football man Hap” is an all-around good man on any team. On defense Map’s” playing always kept the other team trying for an opening which they never were able to find. On offense Hap” was ahvays able to make his opponent look rather sick and make big holes for the Backfield men to run through for big gains. In being accorded this honor it just repeats the fact that he was always a good man. having won a place on the all-state second team in 1928, while playing with Eureka a very weak team, and such an honor is hard to attain. ■'HAP” NISOSGRR All-stale Tackle IU Kl •' ROBISON All-state End [ 123 ] SOPHOMORE SQUAD FIRST TRAM SQUAD [ 124 1 STEVE” Ml RDOCK Guard • SID” BIDDULPH Forward BLKL ’ ROBISON Center HAM” ANDERSON Forward 9PECK” G1ES Guard •SLIP” SNELL Guard LUCE RN” BE El AR Forward 1 HAP” NISONGER Forward [ 125 ] CONTINUING a long line of victories, the Provo high school water Spaniels paddled off with the state swimming championship. With a team of Sophomores, Prof. Leaf, managed to win all meets decisively and then capture the state title by scoring thirty-six of the total seventy points which were divided among the other four teams of the state. This represents one of the outstanding feats of a Provo high team. U is also the beginning of a number of spectacular years which Provo high will have in the future. Many of the men who swam for Provo high were superior in their .events in every meet. Thomas in the diving event was superior at all times. Dixon in the backstroke also won every race he entered in this style of swimming. 0. Johnson was supreme in almost any free style event and was considered the outstanding free style ace in Utah. Smoot was one of the most versatile swimmers in the state, winning many races in breaststroke, backstroke, and free style events. Other men who did outstanding work were: Ream, Beeseley, D. Johnson, Wignal, Hendricksen, Alexander, and Carter.

This handicap was expensive throughout the entire state but the records of last years county meet were in many cases bettered. The Provo high track artists staged a very creditable performance at Spanish Fork April 19. regardless of the early date. The team then held a dual meet with Lincoln high the following Tuesday and showed the Lincoin-ites what a well balanced team can do, winning the meet handily and returned to train in earnest for the B. Y. U. Invitational meet. This was the first real competition from larger schools and the Provo high men did very creditably in every event that they entered. The county track meet was held here on May third, and although all the teams of the county were represented by many individual and team stars the Provo high tracksters showed the County that Provo high still makes its athletes fast and strong. Many of the men who represented Provo high this year will be back next year and with a comparatively young team the team in future years is expected to be even still better. [ I2S ) ‘■Baseball A 1.1 HOUGH baseball is a comparatively new sport in the Provo high school, great strides have been taken in the development of this sport and ' the great American” game is becoming more popular in the Provo high school. In 1927 Provo high entered a team in the Alpine Division league and it walked away with first place honors. Last year Provo high entered a team and placed second in the league, and this years team is expected to do greater things. At the opening of the season, Burle Robison was elected coach and Val Ilicks was elected manager. These two men have helped much in developing this years team and a great amount of credit is due them for their work. Although handicapped by poor weather, the fact that most of the team are ttackmen, the team rounded into shape and excellent results were obtained from this years team. The men who played for the Provo high and did very creditable work are pictured above and are as follows: Reading left to right, front row: Eldred Peters, second base: Sterling Coe. outfield: Stephen Murdock, left field: Leonard Giles, third base: Jack McKeon, outfield: Browning Rowe, shortstop: Top row left to right: Sherman Nelson, right field; Lucian Beelar, centerfield; Burle Robison, coach and first baseman; Orvis Call, relief pitcher and outfielder; Harry Larson, pitcher; and Val I'lichs manager and catcher. t 129 I Tennis FOR THE FIRST TIME in the history of the school a tennis league was formed in Utah County. The county was divided into two divisions. Provo high, 15. Y. high and Pleasant Grove high, in the North end of the county and Springville, Payson. and Nephi in the South end. I he winner of these two divisions met in competition for the championship of the country. Truxton Purvance represented Provo high at the formation of the league and was selected tennis manager to supervise the tennis activities in the school. Much of the enthusiasm for tennis in this school is due to his work. Soon after the foiming of the league a tennis tournament was conducted and Clavton Jenkins won over Walter Roberts in the finals by a score of 10-12: 0-3; 6-4. Immediately after the tournament a team consisting of Val Ilicks and Melvin Jenkins, doubles; Walter Roberts and Clayton Jenkins, singles; were chosen to represent Provo high in the league. A team consisting of Melvin Jenkins and alter Roberts, doubles and Clayton Jenkins, singles; entered the B. Y. L. Invitation meet and did excellent work. With such a beginning, tennis has a very great future as a sport in the the Provo high school. t no) I THE SMOKESTACK ft ♦ Dedication IN DEDICATING the Smokestack we should 1 like to thank all who have contributed their physiognomy to make this a Humorous Section, and also to apologize to those whose faces do not appear—we know they’ll feel left out.
