■k TH WORLD TO l?AY A NEW ERA - - 2 WINGING ITS WAY INTO ERA OF EXPECTATION AN ERa which Fall ... a time for building—the building of a greater school, of new friendships, and of new ideas. Winter . . . the advent of myriad new experiences, each carrying with them enjoyment and inspiration UNDREAMED Spring . . the realization of a dream, assures us that great things may be accomplished. H 0 V is ' I. t.V‘-Tv 8 i n Preparation of its students for future leadership and success has always been the purpose and goal of the Snow College Administrative Body. The achievement of this goal so frequently in the past makes it certain th future, the men and women of Snow will leave their mark BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE is the theme for this 1948-49 Year Book. It is hoped that as this year drifts into memories, that from the experiences we have hcd. there has developed, and will continue to develop, strength of character, ideals, and desires to accomplish worthwhile goals which will make definite contributions to our future achievements. Our future must be built on our past experiences, ecch experience becoming in its turn another factor in the development of the individual each of us will in time become. May this year prove to be an experience, or group of experiences, which will ever be a source of positive growth and achievement. This has been a year of making new friends, participating in new experiences, and of exploring new fields of knowledge. Our social and intellectual horirons have been pushed back and perspective greatly broadened. It is hoped that each of us has developed a broader base on which the future can be built. May the year ever remain in our memories as a valuable and worthwhile experience, and may our new friendships ever enrich our lives, and inspire us to press on to greater heights. JAMES A. NUTTAL.

He was always on the job making every activity a worthwhile project. Full of surprises, he sometimes kept us guessing. Talented VeLois Nielson, our Vice President, made time to participate in many extra-curricular activities. Her friendliness, and cooperation, not to mention her voice, kept her in the swing of things. Both brilliant and dependable, Camille Thompson showed her efficiency as student body Secretary. Take a letter, Camille, and Where's that check? are apt to be ringing in her ears for a long time.

Although such matters as balancing the budget, pulling the student body out of debt, keeping student organizations happy, and a million other problems kept them busy, they came through unscathed. Their diligence. interest, and success in their jobs prepared them for future accomplishment. 17 Activity has a world of meaning on the Snow College campus. It means dances, parties, athletic events, clubs. Sun outdoors. It means trying to decide whether To study or to go out tonight” with the latter usually winning out. It means enabling the student to better evaluate himself and in society.

The boxing team under the coaching of Mr. Stutz was heard of—and felt in Junior College pugilistic circles again during 1948 49. Participation in several boxing meets and frequent workouts among themselves helped the boxing boys become adept in the squared circle. Jdoopsters Chained Hal Hatch . . . irrepressible Hal, not only received the nomination lor one o! the characters o: the year, but rated an A f whenever and wherever the word Athletics was mentioned.

Before the snow was entirely gone, the tennis enthusiasts at Snow were giving the courts a good workout Tennis classes were among the most popular on the campus as we all tried our hand at the racket. The lower division team was Ray Stubbs. Calvin Rasrnusson, Grant Stubbs and Dean Suaweeks. The upper division team was Glen Stubbs. lav Gunderson, Dare Allen, John Gurney, Bob Park, and Lee Decker. 28 I a6ebait cm J ot enm5 The team goes into action. Both Upper and Lower Divisions produced formidable diamond aggregations which proved again that the athletic prowess of the Snow Badgers was something more than a myth. Long lines on registration day meant standing in line the rest of the week to get our books and change our registration. Unfamiliar faces soon began to assume individual personalities as we passed the registration committee, the President s office, and received our final O K. Thus, the school year began. Weiners, doughnuts, romantic firelight, and smoke in our eyes concluded the day. As a climax to the first week, we visited the wonders and beauty of Maple Canyon. The Lion's Head proved difficult to climb, but Carol managed to make it, with a little help from Jay. 31 My turkey went to Stan! Over the vehement protestations of the coaches, we enjoyed the Thanksgiving Dance in the gym. A Thanksgiving dance sponsored by the A. W. S. and A. M. S. started us oil on our long week-end. The turkey raffle and debut of the school dance band made it a notable event. Decoration of the halls and rooms in gay holiday trimmings, and the strains of Christmas carols during our lunch hour made the pre-Christmas days bearable. 32 Dinner was served in three delicious flavors—the decorative motif was pine bough and tinsel—Santa wore red. k e nonorea our i Present Day Builders ana their Challenge was the theme of Pounders Day. The torchlight parade, anniversary program, banquet, football game, and dance marked the beginning of Snow's 61st year as a cultural institution. Tom Hatch and Colleen Bagiev, by popular approval of the student body, reigned as King and Queen. Mrs l.eaa T. Jensen, class of 18, gave the Address of the Day at the morning program. A large group of Snow alumni and friends attended the banquet. Chesiey Wintch was toastmaster, and Dare Allen, LaRue Johnson, Arlo Jensen, and Leon Christiansen presented toasts. 33 roue i The long-awaited Snow Ice Carnival brought fun and enjoyment as well as new experiences on hall-melted ice. Gwyn Chapman and Mack Wilkey were honored as Carnival King and Queen. The Snow Sculpture Contest brought out the artistic expression ol the S'' Club and No-San-Sno. 34 We had no applause meter to measure the success of our cheering section, but with the whole student body behind the cheerleaders, we encouraged our teams to always put forth their best. Snow College Cheerleaders— Ronald Coieman, Gwyn Chapman. Ernest Winkler. Lower Division Cheerleaders— Vo ! 'r0nq' Gle kelson. Marilyn Thorpe. The Junior Ciass honored Goil Jear. Hombiir. and Eugene Terry as Prorr. Man and Lady. Promenading to the theme oi Sweethearts, the Juniors staged their Uoor shov to the delight of both participants and or.-lookers. The Prom Man and Lady received the members of the Junior Ciass at a pre-prom reception. 36 Refreshing ana different, the prom theme Carouse! was cleverly presented as part ol the promenade. Artistic ability plus just plain endurance, not to mention loads of fun beh:na the scenes, paid off in striking and original decorations 37 All 1 Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth. No-San-Sno members were easy to please. Mantis loss—Snow College's gain. Playing the piano was only one of Jane’s many contributions to our assemblies. A sure hit on any assembly — Eugene and his violin Assembly Number 1 of the year1 A program given to show the “ins-and-outs of Founders' Day. (More out than in.) The Faculty football team floundered through to victory. The Lower Division introduced their prom theme, “Carousel. The least likely thing to happen when dorm boys and girls got together—a rhythm band. 39 Uib5 The Associated Men Students sponsored many activities designed to attract student interest and participation. Its officers were Tom Hatch, president; Jim Hansen, vice president; Ernest Denison, secretary; Morris Seeiy, activity agent; Mr. Stutz. faculty advisor. The Deer Derby, a means of getting club membership fees, was won by Doyle Larson. For two weeks the male segment ol the student body looked as if there were a strike in the razor blade indust, y—but it was only the annual Beard Growing Contest 40 The Anual Valentine Tea gave the girls an opportunity to act as hostesses lor their mothers and introduce them to their newly-made friends Cooperation and friendship among the girls was the program of the Associated Women Students. Officers were Hazel Johnson, president; LaRue Johnson, vice president. Kona Bee Johnson, secretary; Helen Soren son and Helen Nicholls, representa lives; Mrs. Tippetts, faculty advisor. 41 l W The S” Club included in its membership everyone who had earned a letter in Athletics. A familiar sight to everyone who went to ball games was its members entreating everyone to get your ice cold pop here. The club was officered by Farrell Williams, president; Max Dunfora, vice president; Dick Harmer, secretary, and Bob Smith, activity agent. The Sigma Delta Chis were students interested in dramatics. Their object for the year was the decorating of the school's new Little Theatre. Under the leadership of its officers, Shirley R. Black, president Byron Gass-rnan, vice president; Anita Humphrey, secretary; and Roy Ostler, activity agent, they carried out a full year of speech activity. 42 raaaten The Stragglers was one ol the largest clubs on the campus. It included students from outlying districts who banded together to have a good time and enjoy themselves. The ofiicers were Neldon Oyler, president; Choral Robison, vice president; Chester Boling-broke and La Rita Cort-sen, activity agents. Alumni of Moroni High and North Sanpete High comprised the membership of the N'o-San-Sno. Its officers were Dick Can-nady. president; Garnell Blackham, vice president; Vay Anna Price, secretary; Morris Seely, activity agent. 43 2 orm The newly-acquired Boys' Dorm helped to expand the housing facilities of Snow. Here the boys spent their time when they weren't eating at the cafeteria. having classes, or going out on a wolf-hunt. In other words, they were rarely there. Dorm life, it's great. fust ask any of the girls who reside at the Girls' Dorm. Occasionally, catsup was spilled, but they had yet to draw blood as this book went to press. The Dorm's officers were Shirley Black, president; Sharon Marx, vice president; laniece Sudweeks, secretary and treasurer; Helen Rasmussen, historian. 2) orm 44 7 3J The students who were planning on a career of teaching joined the national Future Teachers' Association. The Lower Division Pep Club gave the high school basketball team its lull hearted support under the direction of Betty Lou Allred, president; LaDawn Rigby, vice president; and Katie Reese, secretary.

Mary Marie Mellor—high scholastic record, social service and fine character rated her the honor of being named efficiency student --- willingness to help, and ability to do. made her rank high in the eyes of both teachers and students. 48 Audrey Cox — High scholastic achievement plus all around ability gave her the honor of delivering the valedictory address at the High School Graduation Exercises — helped spread publicity for the school with her newspaper reporting. Thorpe Waddingham — if there is anything he is incapable of doing, he has not revealed it. Executive, speaker, actor, wit, scholar, father and friend, all these help explain him and the reason he was chosen to share the honor of being valedictorian for the Class of '49. Mary Dean Stringham — shared the honor of being upper division valedictorian — good work, well done, characterized her keen behind-the-scene efforts. 49 The curriculum at Snow gives an opportunity lor every type of personal de- velopment. Fine Arts, Vocational Training, Mathematics, Language Arts are but a lew ol the classes which help the student to gain a tion which will guide him in his quest for an vismess Mona Rae Anderson outstanding student in business—capable editor o! Snowdrift — her scholastic record equaled her high rating in the field of business. Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their party. We found that a knowledge of how to pick off the letters of a type writer was a good way of pulling down an A in any class. One of the busiest corners in school was bustling Birds buzzing business department. Debits and credits, writers cramp, liabilities and assets — no wonder we got B's in our bonnet. We soon found that one of our better informed friends around school was the library. Here we met to discuss the latest news and occasionally—to study. 52 Jim Hansen energetic and cheerful—always willing to do his best divided his time between office as F. F. A. State Secretary, exact sciences, and Girl's dorm possessed high standards plans a career as doctor. Loud explosions, students reeling out of the chemistry laboratory as they were overcome by hydrogen sulfide; these were familiar occurences to us. We had a rough time training our little ions and every now and again lost a couple, but we finally learned the formula for water (H2SO ). Another addition to a rapidly growing Snow College was the conversion of the old gymnasium into a modern up-to-date science building. 53 Jack Hansen—ambitious Sophomore— completed his second year of training in the automotive department—looked to a career as an Auto Mechanic for which his training and ability adequately suited him. The Automotive Department was a valuable training workshop for all students interested in the internal workings of the gasoline engine. Old 'beat-up wrecks vanished into the interior of the shop, only to appear in a couple of weeks with a complete new look. r The Carpentry Department gave students with an interest in wood■ working a chance to develop their ability and at the same time turn out objects ol usefulness and beauty. Lila Christensen — Happy-go-lucky ‘‘Lish was Mrs. Olsen's pride and joy — to add to her uncanny ability to make beautiful clothes was her ability to win the hearts of all who come in contact with her. This year cooking attracted not only the gentler sex. but the girls, also. After slaving over a hot oven all morning, they turned out rare delicacies fit for a king. They tasted good. too. In the sowing department, the girls planned and Hazel. Camille. Carol, and Carolynn rnoae.ed the made new wardrobes to give them that chic results of long hours at their sewing machines, new look. 55 The College Farm was a modern fully equipped laboratory for the use of Agriculture students. Prize livestock and up-to-date equipment provided valuable experience in the care and management of a modern farm plant. 56 Under Mr Anderson's direction, the pep band added new spirit to the basketball and football games Janiece Sudweeks winner of Harry A Dean Music Efficiency Award — outstanding student in field of music — participated in all major music events during both years at Snow— cheerful, good-natured, well-lifced by ail. Furnishing music tor the Messiah, opera, and other musical activities of the year, the school orchestra, under Mr. Dean's direction, proved to be an exceedingly efficient organization. A new musical innovation at tchooi was the formation of a chool dance orchestra. 'J'heir )lia beat added much to the en-vment of our school dances. 57 Every Day Is Ladies Day With Me. The year 1949 will go down in history of Snow College as the year of The Red Mill. Originally scheduled for two performances, the standing room audiences made it necessary to repeat it four times. To put it mildly, it was a smashing hit. “Whistle It Mr. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. 58 “In Old New York THE CAST ' Con K.dder ....

Over thirty-five Snow students participated in the Snow sponsored Junior College Speech Meet, an activity which encouraged participation rather than competition. The English and Speech students also participated in many community social service programs. Extemporaneous speakers. Thorpe Wadaingham.

Not for the squeamish was the Biology Lab, but somehow we managed to get our frogs d-.ssectea, find our staplococcus albus, and draw' down some sort of mark to prove that we were all budding Pasteurs. Franklin Tervort -Reliable and industrious enjoyed spending his spare time boiling bacteria in the Biology lab—had a special love for ice skating and made an O.JC. figure ”8 — made friends easily. M. ALVAH FITZGERAIO LEONARD JUDKINS 62 Ernel Anderson—Known to all at Snow, this good nalurea, kind of shy blond was often seen pursuing one of his favor ite pastimes in the field of sports—fencing—his love of the great outdoors could be seen in the paintings that made him our outstanding art student. In our Art department, students not only picked up the fine points of design and color, but put their knowledge to practical use in creating publicity posters for the school. An integral part of our school curriculum was the courses offered at the L. D. S. Institute. Under the supervision of Institute Director H. Alvah Fitzgerald and Seminary Principal Leonard Judkins, we learned to integrate our religious outlook with our scholastic achievements. 63 What happens when a soldier marries his buddy's English sweetheart merely so she may get into the country, only to rind that his friend has go himself another wife and he's stuck with an English girl he doesn't want?

Classes are the most inclusive units on the campus and it is within them that much of the develop ment for future accomplishments is achieved. Royal Peterson — The “Arthur Godfrey” of Snow —his dry wit enlivened any class or activity in which heparticpated—he and his car were always ready when needed. Anita Humphrey — Our hard working Assistant Program Chairman was always ready to help anyone who needed a good pianist — the many laurels won by her dramatic and speech work helped make her an outstanding senior. 68 Barbara Parry, vice president; Carl Stott, activity agent; Sharon Marx, secretary; Dare Allen, president. The senior class has looked forward to the day of graduation, some of them are ready to take positions now—others are going on to achieve positions which will require further schooling. But they cannot go on without looking back to remember achievements, experiences and friendships they have already made. Their success as a class has been shown by their outstanding leadership, activities, and participation in school functions. 69 emor6 BOYD HANSEN Ephraim ED WILLIAMS Malad, Idaho MONA RAE ANDERSON Mooli ELLIOT OLSEN Morooi WALTER H.

For those whom thou think st thou dost overthrow Die not, poor Death; nor yet const thou kill me. From rest and sleep, which but thy picture be. Much pleasure, then from thee much more must flow; And soonest our best men with thee do go— Rest o! their bones and souls delivery! Thou'rt slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men, And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell; And poppy or charms can make us sleep as well And better than thy stroke. Why swellst thou then? One short sleep past, we wake eternally, And Death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die! —fohn Donne (1633) tomores Carol Poulsen—Star Sophomore — helpful and efficient — when there was something to be done, she was always there, adding her helpful touch to make things successful. Ronald Rasmusson — One- half of the popular Rasmusson combo — assistant chairman of the Lower Division Prom—his main interest was sports, but he found time to keep the girls happy. 86 Officers: Garth Dyreng, president; Norma Anderson, vice president; Donna Tervort, secretary; Mary Lee Hansen, activity agent. The Snow High graduating class of 1949 was one of the smallest classes to graduate from Snow High. Though small in number, they enjoyed a variety of successful activities. Most significant event of the year was the prom, which was one of the most unusual and original proms ever to be held by the Snow College Lower Division Even before commencement, some of the class members, being eligible for college work, began to separate and follow their diverging interests. 87 TED CHERRY JACK HANSEN RITA BURR MARILYN THORPE RAY JORGENSEN FLORA LEE LARSON LEON KELSON DONNA TERVORT NORMA ANDERSON SHAREN MARY LEE HANSEN DICK BAILEY RAY MIKKEISON MITZI ARMSTRONG PHELPS 88 xomoreA CAROL YOUNG ZENA RUE ANDERSON KATIE REESE BETTY LOU ALLRED LOIS RAE MYERS DAVID NIELSON CAROL ROULSON GARTH DYRENG SHIRLEY BROWN RONALD RASMUSSON CAROLYN THOMSON LARRY LUND AUDREY COX JERRY HANSEN GRANT STUBBS CAROL CHRISTENSEN RUTH GREEN WILLIAM CHRISTENSEN OUE BAILEY DONALD RASMUSSON 89 imen Reginald Ross — A green Freshmen who found his way about — showed up well on the high school basketball team — talk dark, and handsome — reticent, but still set feminine hearts to fluttering. 90 Class Officers: Leona Anderson, president; Richard Nielson, vice president; Carolyn Hansen, secretary; Calvin Rasmussen, activity agent. The Freshmen were eager to be initiated into the ways of college life. A bit confused at first, they soon caught on to the manners of college men and women as they gave their wholehearted support to the many campus activities. They took part in their first prom and considered it a very important event. They had their class parties and their class feuds, and decided that their first year at Snow was definitely a great experience. 91 JOAN THOMPSON GLEN NIELSEN VIOLA WILLIAMS TED BRIGGS REGINALD ROSS VA NIECE ALLRED EILEEN BJERREGAARD McKAY BAGLEY LEONA ANDERSON CAROLYN HANSEN BRYON DE-LEEUW RICHARD OLSEN ELLIS RAY PETERSON BONNIE REID DAYLE LARSON JESS MADSEN RAY STUBBS DWAIN JUDKINS 92 HELEN NICHOLLS CALVIN RASMUSSON Jresh reShmevi NEDRA NIELSON TOM THOMPSON JOHN DANIELS JOHN RELL CHRISTENSEN DONNA PAULSEN DEAN SUDWEEKS MAUREEN GASSMAN WAYNE PETERSON BILLY ARMSTRONG CARLOS JUDKINS JO ANNE OLSEN LELAND MORTENSON CATHRINE MADSEN 8LAINE ANDERSON PERRY DE MILL RICHARD NIELSON MARY JEAN OLSEN DON ANDERSON LA RUE ANDERSON LA DAWN RAE RIGBY HELEN HACKWELL BETTY LARSEN JUNE DOKE DON RAY LARSEN CARLTON JUDKINS 93 Compliments of L.
