No at- tempt has been made to delve into the past, or predict the future, the entire ef- fort being directed toward producing a memory book of student days at this institution. PRE IPA C IE awntiiiWiiftiSnTi ;: To attempt to give a complete picture of life at the University of Wyoming for one year is indeed a tremendous task. If those who have worked to make this book possible have caught a glimpse of its ac- tivities and personalities, and have in- corporated a trace of the glorious spirit of the West, then the 1931 WYO has attained its objective.

Old Main, the birthplace of the Uni- versity of Wyoming, ivas built in 1885, and for many years contained the entire University. The campus has now expanded until it contains nearly a score of braidings and covers about 100 acres, bid Old Main still remains the heart of the University, hoiisi ig the administrative offices, the Division of Commerce, and many Liberal Arts departments.

Built in 1912, its services to the state have caused it to expand until it scarcely is able to house all its activities. In addition to the regidar resident Col- lege of Agriculture, the many state experiment farms and. county agent offices are administered from here, and important researches carried on. „,,nVrt '  U .

Registrar THE work of the Registrar has changed from that of a bookkeeper to historian. He is at present one of the most important of administrative officers of the University. He comes in contact with probably more students than anv other official. In former days the Registrar ' s office was one merely of figures, sta- tistics, and records. Today, his files disclose the university life history of the student. Not only are the grades shown but also every activity he entered into in his college career, in fact, everything of importance and interest con- cerning him is preserved for a permanent record of his university life in the files of the Registrar ' s office. With the increase of the number of details to be recorded, and the steady increase in size of the student body, the personnel of the Registrar ' s office has increased until it is now several times the size of its original force. With its increase in size and amount of work has come a proportionate increase in. importance and utility, until it is one of the most efficient and useful Ijranches of the administration. Page 32 LIBRARIAN MARY E. MARKS, B. L. S. LihrarUiii OF all the departments of the University, it is i)r()bably the library which the o-reatest number of students learn to know, for not many reach graduation day without having , willingly or unwillingly, formed some con- nection W ' ith it. ■iU The present library building was first occupied in 1923, and previous to that the library was housed in various rooms in University Hall, its last loca- tion there being in the rooms now occupied by the Division of Commerce. From its beginning the library has enjoyed a steady growth and the book collection now ' numbers about 80,000 volumes, in adclition to 12,000 Government documents, which constitute a very valuable part of the refer- ence resources of the liljrary, and 10,000 pamphlets of interest on many sub- jects. It is interesting to note that three of the four former librarians are on the campus at the present time : Dr. Aven Nelson, wdiose term as librarian extended from 1887-91, Dean Justus F. Soule from 1891-94, and Dr. Grace Raymond Hebard from 1894-1919. A University of Wyoming catalog for 1891-92 states: Books reserx ' ed at the instance of the officers of instruction, as collateral reading for their courses are shelved in their respective rooms, and can be taken out onh on application to such officers, who are responsible for them during the period of their reservation. Now as many as 900 reserve books are borrowed at the loan desk in the course of one day. For the fiscal year 1929-30 there were 58,110 books loaned for use out- side of the library. The reserve book circulation for the same period is some- thing over 300,000, making an approximate total of 358,110 books loaned during one year. I Page 33 i U ml DEAN OF WOMEN HELEN C. DUNNEWALD, M. A. Dean of Women fPPROXIMATELY six Imndred women are registered in the L ' ni- — versity this year. The Dean of Women and her assistants attend to their needs and aid them in their adjustment to the coheg e environment and college demands. The Dean co-ordinates their various academic and social in- terests, supplies a constant factor in the changing student group and serves as adviser and counsellor to groups and to individuals. The training received in the intra- and extra-curricular activities should prepare the student for proper college citizenship and for the larger and more effective citizenship in after-college life. The attitude toward opinions, traditions, and ])rinciples of the college world may determine one ' s attitude toward life in general. To adjust the student to the college euAironment successfully, guidance is necessary. On the Dean of Women ' s staff are Miss E. Luella Galliver, assistant Dean of Women and director of Merica Hall ; Mrs. L. P. Gage, director of Hoyt Hall ; Miss Maurine Hollo, assistant to the director of Merica Hall ; Miss Sara Trousdale, assistant to the director of Hoyt Hall ; Mrs. O. Balen- siefer, chaperon, Pi Omega ; Mrs. Atha Brinker, manager, Brinker House ; Mrs. Lucy G. Green, chaperon. Delta Delta Delta ; Mrs. T. L. Lockhart, chaperon. Kappa Delta ; Mrs. J. R.

Dean of Men T¥{ i duties of the Dean of Men are many, and vary with tlie organization and growth of the University. In general they may be summarized by saying that he is tlie counseUor of the men on any and every mat ter regard- ing which they should come to him for consultation and advice. Such mat- ters may be choice of college or department, place of residence, plans for future work, finance, and questions of personal conduct and behavi( r. The Dean is ever ready to listen to the student who has a real or apparent prob- lem, and to give his best effort tow ard the solution. There should exist therefore the utmost frankness between student and Dean. , ' ■! Where the work of the Dean of Men is most fully developed, the office has been found to be one of great value both to the student and the Univer- sity. In such institutions the Dean has in his files the High School record of the student, and all other information needed for an understanding of him and his problems. He is thus prepared to help the student ijuickly to adjust himself to the new circumstances in which he finds himself. In this office also the personnel work is carried on, and opportunities awaiting the student upon graduation are kept on file. The Dean then is the officer of the University who understands the stu- dent and his problems and endeavors to give him sympathetic friendship and counsel. 1 [ Page 35 ,.,= ; ' ,■■..!„, ; . f LIBERAL ARTS p. T. MILLER. M. A. Dean (if tJie CnUcgc of Liberal Arts CV ' H E College of Liberal Arts was the first college on the campus, opening - ■ in the fall of 1887. At that time there was just one class, that of fresh- man. A new class entered each succeeding year, and in June, 1891, the first class was graduated. Each following commencement has seen a goodly num- Ijer of students from the College of Liberal Arts. j At first there were few departments and presented curricula, but with the increasing financial resources new departments were added and the cur- ricula enriched and made largely elective. At the present time there are thirteen major departments that offer courses sufficient!} diversified to meet the needs of a thousand students, and that have an adequate instructional force to teach these courses. In addition to the departments mentioned there has been added to the College of Liberal Arts, a Division of Commerce, and a Division of Music. Both of these divisions lead to degrees and are prepared to give the adecjuate opportunities to students who seek preparation for careers in business or music. The College also offers work in preparation for the later study of Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, and Law, as well as a course in Nursing, which leads to a Nurse ' s Diploma. The College of Liberal Arts is the center about which the Lniversity has been built. It is, and will continue to be, the college that offers the broad education sought by students who can defer, for a time, professional training. Its function is so to reveal the various aspects of all phases of civili- zation that the student may have an intelligent basis for the understanding of the problems of life and such balance of mind as to enable him rightly to interpret them, and at the same time to give the student that cultivation that shall enable him to devote his leisure to the pursuit of happiness. Page 36 COMMERCE E. DEANE HUNTON, M. B. A. Hrad of tlic Dirisiaii nf fUninnerce ' II THE Commerce Department of the University of Wyoming was created at the December meeting of the Board of Trustees, 1898. It was called the Wyoming State School of Commerce. Professor D. C. Royer was elected as instructor to begin work the first of July, 1899. The offerings of the school consisted of two years in the department of bookkeeping and business practice and two years in the department of shorthand. The work offered in Commerce has expanded and the enrollment in- creased steadily until the present time. In 1920 the full four year course was established, with the degree of Bachelor of Commercial Science being offered. It operated thus until 1929 when the degree awarded was that of Bachelor of Science. The increasing demand for business training in the University gave rise to the need of establishing graduate w(Trk. In the year 1928 the Committee on Graduate Study authorized the presentation of a sufficient amount of graduate study to lead to the degree of Master in Business Administration. The enrollment for the year 1930-1931 slightly exceeds 300. Ihe Divis- ion of Commerce is training its young men and young women along three distinct lines. There is offered a regular four year coiu ' se of training for those who propose to become Certified Public Accountants, Consulting Ac- countants, or Corporation Accountants. One of the popular courses is that of the Secretarial, designed for the purpose of training those who wish to be- come private secretaries with a sufficiently broad training to assume man- agerial and administrative responsibilities. The course in Business Adminis- tration is designed to give a broader general training to those who contem- plate entering the business world. All three branches of the work are well attended. The present staff of the division consists of highly trained specialists in the various fields of Finance, Statistics, Business Law, Accounting, and Secretarial work. With the continued growth hich the di ' ision has enjoyed in the past it is hoped soon to have constituted a School of Business Admin- istration, unsurpassed in high standards of training and one of the best in the Rocky Mountain region.

In 1891, a School of Music was established by Mrs. Ida Arabella Grant, which was a private enterprise rather than a department of the University. From this beginning- the depart- ment has grown to the present faculty of seven. Some names prominent in its history are: Mary Slavens Clark, 1902-09; Dean Arnold G. H. Bode, in charge of the Episcopal Cathedral Parish as well as of Music at the Uni- versity, 1910-12; Eva Meek, 1910-16. Others could be mentioned who have made valuable contributions to music instruction in this institution. In 1926 the four year curriculum leading to the degree of Bachelor of Music was revised and made standard with the requirements of leading col- leges of Music in the country. Compared with the enrollment of the Univer- sity, only a small number of students major in Music, but many students in other departments take advantage of the opportunity to earn elective credit in Applied and Theoretical Music subjects. Last year the average enrollment per term of all Music students was about one hundred seventy-five. The Music organizations consist of the R. O. T. C. Band of about fifty, the University Orchestra of about forty, the LIniversity Chorus of about one hundred, and the Women ' s Glee Club of about forty. The Wharton Violin Quartet, org-anized and conducted by Daisy Wharton, a unique organization performing music of the highest type, is much in demand. Extension classes in Voice, Part Singing, Music Appreciation and Public School Music have been conducted in different towns of the state during the last six years. Page 38 iiil LAW CHARLES H. KINNANE, B. S., LL. B., J. S. D. Dean of the Lmr fichool I i M N the year of 1930-31 the Law School entered its second decade of exist- - ' ence, the school having heen founded in 1920. Early in its career the Law School received national ratings. It was approved in 1923 hy the American Bar Association and admitted during the same year to the Association of American Law Schools. At that time only ahont thirty per cent of the Amer- ican Law Schools were eligible to such ratings, h ' rom that time onward the school took and kept its place as one of the ranking ' Law Schools in the Rocky Mountain Region. At the present time its faculty consists of four full-time and three part- time teachers. All have had exceptional training or extensive practical ex- perience, so that the faculty affords instructi(jn combining the best of theory and of practice. Constant attention has been paid to improving its Library. Systematic and carefully chosen additions have been made to it, until it now contains approximately 10,500 volumes. n The student body is small, ranging in recent years between thirty and forty students, so that all students are assured of constant individual atten- tion. While a special effort is made to teach details of local Wyoming law and practice, the course of instruction is designed to fit students for the ])rac- tice of law in other states as well. The minimum course requires five years, two of which are devoted to pre-legal studies, followed by three years of professional law study. In ad- dition there are offered six-year courses in Liberal Arts and Law, and in Business Administration and Law. J. ' Page 39 EDUCATION C. R. MAXWELL, M. A. Dccui of file College of Education C7 lERY briefly, the purpose of the Cohege of Education is the preparation - of students for the profession of teaching. A wider scope is reached, however. weU. Not onl} is training given in the art of teaching. l)ut of teaching The College has for its province the training of all kinds of teachers, as well as all kinds of educational leadership needed for service in the schools of the state. An extensive course outlined to meet the needs of teachers who will teach in rural schools, vocational high schools, elementary grades, and who will teach exceptional children, is offered. Training schools, class work and laboratories are provided for the demonstration of educational principles and also an opportunity for the student teacher to put into execution his theo- retical principles under critical and sympathetic supervision. Realizing, also, that teachers must have a broad background, the school extends and main- tains academic and classical work of the most fundamental and worth while kind, which students can and do use. In the College there is offered an excellent program of graduate work for superintendents and principals. Due to the growth and development of the College of Education, a large percentage of the teachers and administrators in the state are either graduates of the Universit} of Wyomin g, or are pur- suing advanced work in the summer session. n Page 40 AGRICULTURE JOHN A. HILL, B. S. Dixui of the Collei e of Agriculture THE College of Agriculture continues to grow. This enables the College to serve more and more in the development of the farms and homes of the state. Our greatest agricultural development in the next few decades will come thr(jug ' h our n ' n men and women (jf W ' oming who study in the Wyoming Agricultural College. They will know the types of live stock that are suited to Wyoming- conditions, and the home-grown feeds that are the most efficient. They will be able to select varieties of plants suited to the climate and soil of the state. They will understand how to market live stock, wool and crops. They will understand the problems of the business management on the farms and ranches of the state. They will know useful native plants of Wyoming and also ones that are poisonous. They will know the climate and the geology and the geography of this great state. They will know ' how to found endur- ing homes. Best of all, the} will know and be able to work w ' ith the men and women of Wyoming who were trained on the University campus and who will furnish a large part of the future leadership of the state ; the doctors, the lawyers, the business men, the engineers, the educators, the state officials, the inventors, the scientists, and the sociologists. Page 41 ! li Ml ENGINEERING ROBERT L. RHOADS, M. E. y (7 of tlie College of Engineering TO keep pace with the material progress, in fact, to lead to new achieve- ments, colleges of engineering everywhere are called upon to revise, en- large, and correlate their various curricula. The profession is in a constant state of change, because the world itself alters its demands upon it. We might say that the best index of a profession ' s vitality is the ready ease with which new problems are solved. Fundamentally, all engineering is one and the same. The numerous applications, however, provide somewhat separate but yet closely allied fields of labor. The method of procedure based on common training, is the essen- tial thing. ■ . With this idea in mind the College offers each student of engineering basic courses supplemented by some definite specialization — the broader out- look first — the more intensive effort later. As each new fact or law of nature is developed, its practical application to the affairs of mankind follow f orthwith. Economic usefulness is the shib- boleth of today, and will even more discriminately answer as such tomorrow. The Engineering College offers full four-year degree courses in civil, electrical, mechanical, and mining engineering, the four foundation divisions of the profession. It also offers the first two years of a course in chemical engineering, which, though a younger branch, has nevertheless made decided progress in industry. m Page 42 ■ n wmcuuAuuu w«a ruiui ' .

Committee, the governing body of the Associated Stu- dents of the University of Wyoming, has the full responsibility of spon- soring and managing all all-school activities, including athletics, debate, dra- matics, and the publishing of the college weekly, The Branding Iron. The famous Carnegie athletic investigation two years ago brought to light the fact that the University of Wyoming ' was one of three universities in wdiich undergraduate control of athletics and other activities really existed.

BOARD THE Associated Women Students, as the name implies, is an organization of all women students reg-istered in the University; it is affiliated with the Intercolleg iate Association of Women Students — the national organiza- tion of self-governing- students. The chief function of this group is not to assume responsibility for the conduct of women students ; its greatest field of opportunity and endeavor lies in the pow ' er the organization affords for helping students to grow in character and to achieve a healthful, rich develop- ment of self. The program of jcational Guidance, which is the project of the year, is one of the means by which it is hoped to accomplish these desir- able ends.

Since the day in the spring- of 1930, when the impressive Swingout and Bridle and Spurs Ceremony symbolically passed the under-graduate leadership to the class of 193 1, it has done its tasks well. The traditional dance of the class, the Senior Black and White, is given each spring before the many graduation ceremonies begin. !

JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS TIIR junior class is traditionally the busiest of all; it has the important task of publishing- and financing the Wyo and must present the Junior Prom, the most elaborate social function on the campus. ' I ' lie Prom of the class of 1932 was by far the most pretentious of any g-iven thus far, strik- ingly beautiful modernistic decorations being employed, and an orchestra im- ported for the occasion. The class of 1932 originated in their first year the annual Freshman Bust-Out, which has already become a fixed custom upon the campus.

This typically Western function, in which a ballroom is transformed into an old-time forty-niner dance hall, complete with bar, gambling devices and a continuous riproaring dance, suffices to keep the class busy during the remainder of the year after the freshmen are finally subdued.

An all-freshman dance is given by the class soon after the year starts. In the spring, the now firmly entrenched Freshman Bust-Out, when the class stages a pajama parade, bonfire and dance, and installs the officers for the coming year, signifies the passing of the freshman class.

PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL THE Women ' s Pan-Hellenic is made up of six women fraternities on the campus, the local groups being ' admitted on the same basis as the na- tionals. The organization is banded together by a council of representatives consisting of one alumni, one senior and one junior delegate from each group. Dr. Clara Mclntyre has been chosen to act as faculty representative on the council. It is the purpose of this council to foster a feeling of good will between the groups and to iron out any difficulties which may arise. The social events sponsored by Pan-Hellenic are a formal dance, which was this year given at Gray ' s Gables, and a breakfast in the spring quarter for the women on the campus receiving the highest scholastic averages in their respective groups.

INTER-FRATERNITY COUNCIL Tlll 1 liter- I ' -aternity Council is C()ni] )sed of a faculty adviser and two delegates from each social fraternitx ' on the campus. The meml)ers serve two-year terms, one from each organization g ' oing out every year so that there is never a complete change m personnel at one time. This group has as its purpose the furtherance of co-operation between the fraternities. It acts upon fraternity policies and regulates the rushing and pledging program. In the promotion of scholarship a cup is awarded each year to the fraternit ' having the highest scholastic a erage. The Inter-Fraternit} ' Rail, sponsored annually by the Council, is one of the outstanding formals of the year. DR. A. P. VASS- LEW GARRETT.

Each spring on the south campus this ceremony is staged to symbolize the passing of the seniors from the University, and the elevation of the junior class to the position of school leadership. While the band plays the inspiring Alma Mater, the juniors file slowly from Old Main to the campus, where they form in a W, fol- lowed by the seniors bearing a brown and yellow chain, who form beside the juniors. In true western style, the chap-clad senior president rides forth from the U. W. Outfit to meet the similarly clad junior president, who receives from his predecessor the bridle, signifying leadership, and the spurs, for inspiration. While the two classes join in the Alma Mater, the chain is passed from the seniors t( the juniors ; the officers mount their horses and are gone with a clatter of hoofs; and the seniors pass through the gate of U. W. Outfit, symbolically for the last time. THE FRESHMAN BUST-OUT Another class tradition of an entirely different character which is staged each spring is the Freshman Bust-Out, originated by the class of ' 32, and already firmly established as an annual event. At the close of the year, to symbolize their impending elevation to the standing of upperclassmen, the freshmen assemble in the evening near the Men ' s Hall, and led by a band and clad in pajamas, the entire class parades from the campus around town, and back again, to assemble around a huge bonfire, into which frosh caps are hurled, and into which a coffin-encased effigy, representing the now dead freshman class, is tossed. On impromptu platforms the officers elected for the coming 3 ' ear are introduced and installed, and then the entire class retires to the hall of the Men ' s Dorm, to dance and repulse any sophomores who might attempt to gain an entrance. il Page 84 FRESHMEN Ml HERMINA MARZEL Cheyenne Liberal Arts Kapiia Delta.

Page 108 !!13 FAIR WOMEN POPULARITY CONTEST f) )HILE the Dekes of Virginia were wrestling- wath the knotty problem of determining the most beautiful coeds on the University of Wyo- ming campus, the school at large was similarly engaged in determining the most popular girls in the University by the traditional Popularity Contest, conducted by the Wyo each year. Eight girls were entered in the contest, Miss Rachel Achenbach, Miss Eva Burton, Miss Lillian Carleson, Miss Jane Kenley, Miss Mary MacKenzie, Miss Eannie Jo Reed, Miss Louise Scott, and Miss Shirley Smith being the candidates of their respective organizations. With votes being obtained by means of Wyo sales, an interesting and active campaign of several weeks ' duration was carried on, with the result that Miss Fannie Jo Reed, Alpha Chi Omega, placed first by a commanding majority, Miss Lillian Carleson, Pi Beta Phi, took second, and Miss Louise Scott, Delta Delta Delta, placed third. Page 110 THE BEAUTY CONTEST ETA CHAPTER OF D. R. E, UiMVERSITY, VA. 1111 l February 4, 1931. Mr. Elmer Modeer, Editor, 1931 WYO, University of Wyoming, Laramie, Wyoming. Dear Mr. Modeer: ' A very unfortunate circumstance lias been the cause of our delay in returning to you the photographs submitted with the results of our selection. By some unpardonable error of the Postal Service, the package containing the pictures was delivered to another Fraternity House and it was with the greatest difficulty that we succeeded in rounding up the mislaid pictures. However, we proceeded to an open forum selection on Lodge Meeting Night, with all members enthusiastically on hand. The outcome of the hotly contested discussion and subsequent balloting saw Miss No. 30 take first place by a commanding majority. Miss No. 3 was a good second, while third award for pulchritude went to Miss No. 26. In placing the first award, we experienced extreme difficulty, as it involved choice, and choice in such a multitude of Belles is, to say the least, distasteful. In the final analysis, the thing which had the most to do with the choice was our inveterate love for the truest lady. It is the appearance of that true beauty which shines in the countenance as the reflection of an inner beauty and the representative most nearly conforming to our standards along these lines, was Miss No. 30. Her dignified and patrician mien is such as would command attention from the most casual observer, and although it is perhaps not the politic thing to say, she quite swept us off our feet. Scarcely less popular was radiant Miss No. 3, a great favorite with the West Virginia contingent, who placed highest confidence in a warm heart and cheerful disposition. Miss No. 26 ' s simple charm won her a host of stout supporters. In closing, it is needless to say that we deeply appreciate the honor you have bestowed upon us in singling us out for judges in a matter which is of such vital interest to you, and hope that our selections will meet with popular approval. We remain. Yours sincerely, ETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. Louis Mackall, Jr., President. Eta Chapter af Delta Kappa Epsiloii, Lhiiveraiti of Tirtiinia, Jinhjcs hi IMSl Beauty Contest.

SOCIETY HE social season at the University of Wyo- ming was opened by the W Ckib the first week- end of the school year, when they staged an all- school mixer in the big gymnasinm. The affair w a s held on Saturday night, September 20, and in its informal atmosphere old acquaintances were re- newed and the freshmen welcomed into the student Ijody. The next week-end saw the first A. S. U. W. dance of the year. On October 3 the annual Coed Ball was staged by the women of the University in the Little Theater, from which men were excluded, and which proved to be an excellent mixer for the women of the campus. The upperclass women played the part of host and escorted the freshmen girls to the dance. Homecoming , the week-end of October 10-12, was the largest in point of attendance and elaborateness of program that has yet been staged by Wyo- ming. Besides the Alumni Banquet and the Homecoming Dance on Satur- day night, numerous smokers, teas and receptions were given by the various organizations on the campus. A Homecoming parade was held for the sec- ond time on Saturday morning, in which a score or more of floats were en- tered. Sigma Alpha Epsilon won first place among the men ' s floats, and Alpha Chi Omega won the cup for the best women ' s float. The sorority and fraternity houses were elaborately decorated for the occasion, Sigma Alpha Epsilon winning first place by transforming their home into a realistic ranch house. Kappa Sigma took second place and Kappa Kappa Gamma third. The banquet, held after the big game, was attended exclusively by alumni, and the Commons was well filled. The Homecoming Dance, which brought the week-end to a close, was attended by faculty, grads, and undergrads, and was, as usual, the largest attend- ed dance of the year, over three hundred couples crowding into the big gym. The annual Ag dance, the most informal party of the year, was held again in the the hayloft of the big barn on the University stock farm, on October 18. Junior Prom Queen, Mary MacKenzie, surrounded by her attendants. Page 126 jSVphc fti f (€ Paii-HcUeiilc Ball. The Ag Ckib was host to a large group of pleasantly rowdy farmers and farmer- ettes. Alpha Chi Omega and Sigma Chi replaced Delta Phi Sigma and the Inde- pendent Club, respectively, the next week-end in elab- orate cere m o n i e s that brought national officers and visitors from all parts of the country to the campus. Both installations were climaxed by formal dinner dances, attended by representatives of the other campus Greek organi- zations, members of nearby chapters and the visiting officials. The second A. S. U. W. Dance was given the 31st of October in the Little Theater. The first formal party of the year was staged b} ' the engineers on No- vember 21, when they presented the annual Engineers ' Ball in the big gyui- nasium. The couples danced under a huge s])i(ler web spun of streamers of brown and yellow, the University colors, and blue and white, the colors of the College of Engineering. The web, which covered the entire ceiling, was gay with fluttering pennants carrying the C( lor scheme, and huge spiders with gleaming jeweled eyes lurked in the corners of the web. During the evening, the annual coronation of the (|ueen of the ball was held. The queen was selected before the ball by balloting of the engineers, and Miss Isabel Thompson of Laramie received the honors this year. Her attendants were Miss Beverly Meyers, Miss Elizabeth Thornberry, Miss Mary Coe, Miss Helen Hall, Miss Bessie Kennedy and Miss Mary Iva MacKenzie. An A. S. U. W. dance opened the social season on January 9, after the Christmas holidays, and this was followed the next night by the A. W. S. Costume Party, at which women only were present. Miss Lillian Carleson and Miss Inez Goetz were awarded prizes for the most beautiful costumes, and Miss Mary Belle Pem- berton and Miss Margaret (jrisinger won the fox trot prize. The 193 1 junior Prom and Prom week-end was held January 2t,, and was easily the outstanding so- cial event of the year. The big gvmnasium was lavish- ly decorated in modernistic style, all done in black and white. An elaborate black and white ceiling was con- structed, and huge panels screened off the lounges Corner of the Gymnasium, decorated for the Military Ball . Page 127 MM ' « !l ' I III. from the floor. One end of the gym was built up to accommodate Tony Fer- rero ' s band from Denver, while the other end was built into a dais for the Prom queen. The promenade was led by Joe Porter, Prom chairman, and his guest, Miss Margaret Thomas. Later the coronation of the queen took place. Miss Mary Iva MacKenzie was Prom queen and her attendants were Miss Pauline Chaddock, Miss Helen Hougen, Miss Helen Solberg, and Miss Eleanor Buckles. Following the formal, buffet suppers were served at the sorority houses at 2 :30. Prom Aveek-end came to a close the next afternoon with a series of tea dances given by the sororities. The 29th annual Cadet Ball was presented February 13, and was only outranked by the Junior Prom in elaborateness. The gymnasium was decor- ated with a combination of futuristic and militaristic theiues, numerous bright- ly colored panels lighted by subdued floodlights sharing the gym with the cannon and other military equipment. Several hundred couples attended, in- cluding officers and their ladies from Fort Warren, and cadet officers from the Colorado School of Mines and the Colorado Agricultural College. Hume Everett ' s band from Denver furnished the music. The feature of the evening was an exhibition drill by a crack squad, which went through a complicated drill for ten minutes without a command. The sororities of the campus played hostess jointly the night of February 27, when they presented the Pan-Hellenic formal at Gray ' s Gables. Decora- tions consisted of the emblems and colors of the various organizations. The annual A. W. S. formal was the first major social event of the spring quarter. The results of the election for the next year ' s officers were announced and the officers presented. Th dance was held at the Laramie Country Club. The following night the big whoopee party of the year was staged in the gymnasium when the sophomores presented the annual Powder River Ball. Here the students reverted for a night to the old days of Wyoming, and cowboys, gamblers, miners, and cowgirls hung about the bar and gaming tables, and danced hilariously in an atmosphere of a ' 49 barroom.

CT HE University of Wy- ■■- oming- dramatists scored a distinct triumph last spring when they were privileged to present R. C. Sheriff ' s world famous war drama, Journey ' s End. The University was one of three collegiate institutions that have been permitted to present this play, West Point and Dartmouth shar- ing the privilege. The play was produced by Theta Alpha Phi, on May 29 and on the afternoon of Memorial Day, May 30, and drew wide comment. The drama has an all-male cast and but one setting, the entire action taking place in a front line dug-out. Erank Mann took the part of Captain Stanhope, while other leading parts were taken by Lowry King as Lieut. Osborne, Rob- ert Simpson as Capt. Hardy, Patrick Ouealy as Lieut. Trotter, Josef Replogle as Lieut. Raleigh, and Joe Sullivan as Private Mason. The chief dramatic feature of the fall cjuarter was the producing and taking on tour of the clever comedy by Frederick Lonsdale, Aren ' t We All? , by the University of Wyoming Players. The Good Will Troupe, as they were known, made a twelve day trip through the northern and central part of the state, playing at Cheyenne, Torrington, Glenrock, Sheridan, Gillette, Casper, Buffalo, Douglas and Midwest. Besides the dramatic troupe, an orchestra was taken on the tour, and played before the high school assem- blies and at dances following the plays. Following the return of the players, the play was presented October 29 at the Little Theater. Lowry King as Hon. William Tatham, Nancy Burrage as Lady Trenton, Zene Bohrer as Lord Trenton, Helen Hylton as Margot Tatham, Geraldine Truitt as Angella Lynton, Patrick Ouealy as Rev. Earnest Lynton, and John McNulty as Mor- ton, were especially good. Theta Alpha ' s winter dramatic offering was K a r e 1 Capek ' s fantastic R. U. R., which is the abbreviation for Rossum ' s Universal Robots. The play is a fantastic repre- sentation, symbolic of the machine age, against which it is a direct protest. It deals Avith the creation of a type of mechanical man, and the robots, as they are called, eventually rise and The cast of Aren ' t We All? ahout to go on tour. (i fit Page 130 destroy mankind. In order to give as many persons interested in drama a chance to play in the production as possible, two casts were organized by Mrs. DeKay, dramatic director, and the play was presented twice, the afternoon of January 24, the better cast playing in the evening, and the less experienced one in the afternoon. A resume of the play was later put on for the benefit of the legislature during their visit. The University of Wyoming Players, encouraged by the success of the fall tour, made another trip during the latter part of April, a company of 22 making the journey, and traveling 1,200 miles in twelve days, going as far north and west as Cody. The popular college comedy, The Poor Nut, was chosen as the vehicle, and proved a great success. The play was presented on the Wyoming campus several years ago by Theta Alpha Phi, and its popularity prompted its selection as the tour drama. Harry Mills Astin was a great hit as the poor nut. the I hi Beta Kappa grind who wished to be an athlete. Nancy Burrage as Margie Blake, Hermione Bradstreet as Julie Win- ter, Keith Bahrenburg as Spike Hoyt, and Patrick Ouealy as the trainer, were all excellent in their parts. One of the most important dramatic events of the last sev- eral years will be the re-presentation of the pageant V e d a u- woo, written and produced b y Mrs. Mabelle DeKay, dra- matic director, and presented in Vedau- woo Glen, a natural amphitheater east of the Sherman Hills, discovered by Mrs. DeKay. The pageant was first presented in 1924, and for the new presentation, Mrs. DeKay has rewritten the pageant in poetry instead of prose. The new presentation will be early in June. The pageant deals with the history of Wyoming in a series of allegorical episodes, beginning with the formation of the natural phenomena of Wyo- ming and carrying the story on down to the present time. The theme deals with the wooing of Wyoming by Vedauwoo, Earthborn. Mask and Sandal, the junior dramatic organization, offered a number of plays during the year, mostly shorter productions. Among the most pop- ular of these were a set of four plays given March 4 and 5, Shall We Join the Ladies, Minuet, How He Lied to Her Husband, and The Affairs of Anatol. ,.J, The Poor ' Nut (• i t paiisrx dm in; a rehfarsa}. 1 1 in; ' ;l Page 131 ' ■i.

THETA ALPHA PHI THETA ALPHA PHI is a national honorary dramatic fraternity estab- lished in 1919 at Chicago, to foster an interest in wholesome dramatics and to provide means for uniting- students, alumni and instructors who have dramatic talent. There are 66 chapters now established. The Wyoming ' chapter was established in 1921, and has been one of the most active societies on the campus since. Membership is extended to those who have successfully performed in two major or four minor roles, or have shown proficiency in some other phase of dramatic art. Most of the talent for the major campus productions is furnished by Theta Alpha Phi. Theta Alpha Phi holds its annual initiation in the unicjue Vedauwoo Glen, natural amphitheater in the Laramie mountains, discovered by Mrs. Mabelle DeKay and named after the pageant which was first held on its natural stages.

During- the year 1930-193 1 Mask and Sandal has admitted several new members, elected pledges at try-outs, and presented a number of one-act plays for the entertainment of the student body. In past years the junior organization has from time to time presented one- act plays and has maintained a high standard of activity throughout the years. Membership in Mask and Sandal is based on dramatic ability, directing of plays, or work in lighting, costuming and makeup.

SIGMA ALPHA IOTA 5IGMA ALPHA IOTA is the oldest national music fraternity for women, being established at the University School of Music of the University of Michigan in 1903. The objects of the fraternity are: to form bodies of representative women who shall by their influence and their musical interest uphold the highest ideals of a musical education, to raise the standards of productive musical work among the women students of colleges, conserva- tories and universities ; to give moral and material aid to its members, to pro- mote and dignify further the development of music in America and to assist in the development of a stronger bond of musical interest and understanding between foreign countries and America. It is necessary for students to receive faculty recommendations and ob- tain a high scholastic average before they are eligible for membership. At present there are 57 active chapters with a total membership of over 5,000. The official publication of the fraternity is Pan Pipes. The badge is seven Roman gold pan pipes, encircled by a jeweled ellipse bearing the Greek letters S A I on black enamel. . . The Wyoming chapter, Sigma Kappa, was established in 1925, largely through the efforts of ] Iiss Helen Hylton of the music faculty.

Is) MEN ' S DEBATE YOMING was well represented in the men ' s division by a strong ' ag- gregation of debaters, who were rounded into shape under the coach- ing of Professor Louis A. Mallory. and Mr. VVilmer E. Stevens, assistant. Harold Scott and William C. Holland, the veterans of the squad, with three years of experience, carried the major share of the competition for the season. They represented Wyoming on the tour to the Pacific Coast, and at the meet of the Rocky Mountain Forensic League. Norris Embree, completing his last year of forensics, and Lawrence Burley, sophomore, turned in some very creditable performances on the home platform. The home schedule was opened on February i6, with two non-decisions, with Weber College and Colorado Teachers. In the former, William Holland and Lawrence Burley defended a protectionist policy, while in the evening discussion Harold Scott and Alan Linford advanced the cause of free trade. March 21, a negative team of Lawrence Burley and Norris Embree met the University of Nebraska. The season was closed on the campus by an Oregon style discussion with Utah Universit} ' . Due to a rather limited home schedule, it was not possible for all of the squad to engage in a contest. However, there is some very promising mate- rial on the sc[uad from which it should not be difficult to turn out a succes- sion of strong teams. Norris Embree, and Harold Scott, with his record of over forty debates in his three years of experience, will be lost by graduation, but fortunately there will be a nucleus of experience and also some promising material with which to replace them. The members of the squad in the 193 1 season were Harold Scott, Wil- liam Holland Lawrence Burley, Norris Embree, Alan Linford, Byron Bender, Afchie McClintock, Harold Schreiber, Harry Staples, Elmer Scott, and Urban Bury.

WOMEN ' S DEBATE lORENSICS continued to be one of the activities to command major interest from Wyoming coeds. The squad was under the tutelage of Mrs. Josephine Thompson, who has been very successful in producing out- standing teams during the last several years. This year two topics furnished the cjuestions for discussion, first : Re- solved, that the several states should require all employees to contribute to an unemployment insurance fund to take care of the unemployed ; and secondly, that the several states should compel all automobile owners to carry public liability insurance. These were selected because they were subjects for discus- sion by the schools to be met in the eastern tour, which was taken at the close of the season. In the Rocky Mountain region nearly all of the schools were debating on the cjuestion of free trade, and in consequence it was difficult to find opponents for the women ' s teams. The first debate of the season was with the University of California, in which Wyoming upheld the affirmative in favor of unemployment insur- ance. Perhaps due to the pertinence of the subject, this contest attracted one of the largest audiences of the season. Bertha Ashley and Dorothea Smith represented Wyoming in this discussion. Evidence of the interest in forensic activity is by the fact that this sea- son there was the largest sc[uad in the last several years. Although it was not possible to use all of them in intercollegiate meets, still their training and experience should be a valuable asset in moulding future teams. The members of the squad were Bertha Ashley, Dorothea Smith, Alice Ellen Ford, Louise Scott, Marcella Fair, Elsie Gronlund, Olive Gushing, Barbara Faris, Edna Pearl Pendleton, Helen McCormick, Allene Loomis, and Eleanor Buckles. i!i r ; -I Page 141 ni: 3 if mith, Holland, Scott, Ashley. DEBATE TOURS N keeping ' with the practice of former 3 ' ears, the University of W ' oming- «- ' sent both a men ' s and women ' s debate team on extensive tours. A team composed of Harold Scott and W ' ilham Holland went to the Pacific Coast, while the women ' s team made up of Bertha Ashlev and Dorothea Smith toured in the opposite direction, meeting six schools in the Middle West. The men ' s group debated the subject, Resolved that the nations of the world should adopt a policy of free trade, and carried both sides of the ques- tion. The first debate of the western tour was a non-decision discussion with Occidental College, and opened a series of five debates wdiich were held in Los Ang ' eles. Other teams met were Southwestern University, Southern Cali- fornia, California Tech, U. C. L. A., Redlands, B. Y. U., and Utah. The women ' s team, composed of Bertha Ashley and Dorothea Smith, carried through the difficult task of debating two cjuestions with contests on both the negative and affirmative. Teams met included Nebraska. Iowa, Mc- Murray College, and Purdue. At the meet of the Rocky Mountain Forensic League, held in Boulder, Colorado, April 22-25, Wyoming exhil)ited formidable strength in the de- bating division, and tied for first w ' ith Colorado Agricultural Colleg e. The team which represented Wyoming w as composed of Harold Scott and Wil- liam Holland, after dropping their initial contest by a 2 to i decision, swept through the remaining encounters, defeating Colorado LTniversity 2 to i, Montana State 3 to o, Utah University 2 to i, and Brigham Young L-niver- sity 3 to o. Aggies having dropped a debate to LUah, had the same percentage of victories as W yoming. The results of this meet demonstrated that Wyo- ming can successfully vie for honors with any university in this region. In the same meet, Stephen K. Vaught placed third in extemporaneous speaking.

The winning squad was composed of Elizabeth Dolan. Alice Har- ris, Marcella Fair, and Bernice Barker. The Kendrick trophy must be won three times in succession to become the permanent possession of any organi- zation. MEN ' S INTRAMURAL DEBATE T Nelson, Qiiraly, Cooper, Millett, Rizzi. Sigma Nu won the intramural debate competition for men when their negative team, composed of Patrick Ouealy, Jr., and George Millett defeated the Wesley Clul) affirmative team in the finals. As this was the third con- secutive time that the Senator Warren trophy was won by Sigma Nu, it becomes the permanent possession of this organization. The defeat of the Sigma Nu affirmative team in the semi-finals marked the first defeat for the organization sinc e the Warren cup was first offered in 1929. f Page 143 lili iii Ford, Holland, AclivHhach.

DELTA SIGMA RHO CJ ELTA SIGMA RHO is a national honorary forensic fraternity which ■ - was founded April 13, 1906, at Chicago, by representatives from the Universities of Chicago, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Wis- consin, and Northwestern. Delta Sigma Rho was established at the Univer- sity of Wyoming, May 4, 19 17. Because of the high entrance requirements, membership in this organi- zation is of especial significance. In order to be eligible for membership a person must have two years ' experience in intercollegiate competition and must be past the middle of the junior year in college. The sole purpose of Delta Sigma Rho is to foster the development of forensic talent among its members. In addition to being interested in debat- ing on the campus, Delta Sigma Rho encourages this activity in Wyoming high schools by presenting a silver loving cap to each of the members of the winning debate team in the State High School Tournament.

Page 144 PUBLICATIONS THE 1931 WYO ELMER MODEER Editor Ci planning the 1931 Wyo, the chief aim of the staff has been to create a vokime that would serve as a memory book of the year 1930-193 1 for the entire school. With this in mind, no definite theme was carried out in the art work, the division and sub-division pages being designed to reflect the present campus and e -ents of the year as much as possible. The task of publishing a yearbook is not easy ; too much credit cannot be given those faithful members of the staff Avho have labored to make this book possible. If the errors that are inevital)le in a book of this size are not too severely criticized, then the staff may feel that its work has not been in vain. ELMER MODEER.

THE BRANDING IRON GEORGE HOLTORF Editor CT ' HE Branding Iron, the student newspaper, is published weekl} ' by the ■ - Associated Students of the University of Wyoming. It was edited this year by George Holtorf, with Gene Cross as associate editor, and managed by Cah ' in Owen and James Rennie. - An unusually large number of students sought positions on the staff this year, and many of these, notably several freshmen, did excellent work. This increased interest in journalism promises higher standards of campus journal- ism in coming years. The Branding Iron has a three-fold purpose ; to disseminate campus news, provide a puljlicity organ for the University, and to provide training for students interested in journalism. Besides the regular issues, a number of special editions are published each year, including the Curling Iron, a special coed issue, a freshman issue, and a scandal sheet.

QUILL CLUB oA MERICAN COLLEGE QUILL CLUB, which originated at the Uni- ' ersity of Kansas in 1900, and now has twenty-three runes through- out the country, is one of the outstanding societies of its kind in the collegiate world. Its object is to encourage literary effort and criticism among under- graduates and to further the publication of student work, as well as to pro- vide a common bond for those who are interested in writing. It publishes a magazine, The Parcliincnf, and encourages each rune to issue a magazine an- nually. Thorn Rune, established at the University of Wyoming in 191 5 as the third chapter of Quill Club, has always occupied a leading position in the organization, several of its members having held national offices. It is made up of students and faculty members who are genuinely interested in creative writing, and its meetings, which are held every two weeks, provide training in writing and criticism. Membership is determined by the equality of manu- scripts submitted in the try-outs, which are held twice each year.

THE Cadet Corps is one of the oldest organizations on the campus, dating back from 1891 when a regular officer was first detailed to the Uni- versity as professor of military science and tactics. From the handful of cadets who wrestled with present arms and scjuads east in that dim past the corps has grown until it now numbers well over four hundred, having an advanced course with a strength of forty-five and a basic course of about three hundred and eighty. The Wyoming detachment of the Reserve Officers Training Corps constitutes an infantry battalion. The last few years has witnessed increased interest and activity in the corps of cadets. The installation of E Company, Seventh Regiment, Scab- bard and Blade, national honorary military fraternity, has raised the interest and improved the work of the Advanced Course.

Last spring , in particular, meant more than the abihty to desert the armory for the wide open spaces, for much activity brought the Mihtary Department into the hmelight. The annual War Depart- ment inspection resulted in the local unit winning the long ' hoped for and important distinguished rating. The winning of this rating indicates that the infantry unit of the R. O. T. C. at Wyoming is one outstanding among those in the country. -As a token of their excellence, the members of the unit are entitled to wear white stars on a blue background on the right sleeves of their uniforms, the symbol of distinguished rating. Each spring the corps gives its Honor Parade, at which time troi)hies, donated by civic organizations and merchants of Laramie, are awarded to the cadets and cadet officers for their skill and ability. This practice has greatly influenced and improved the corps. At the Honor Parade, held last spring, the following prizes and medals were distributed : Jack E. Stenberg, a sabre and Sam Brown belt, given by the Rotary Club, for being the most outstand- ing cadet officer; Victor L Mullens, a wrist watch, given by the Midwest Trunk and Sporting Goods Company to the most outstanding first year Ad- vanced Course student ; Alfred Jack Richard, a gold medal, offered by the Boosters Club for the most outstanding Basic Course student ; for individual competitive drill three medals offered by the Lyons Club: ist place, gold medal to Franklin Winter; 2nd place, silver medal to Hugh Dessert; 3rd place, bronze medal to Stephen Angelovic. Corporal Franklin Winter ' s squad of Company A won the squad competitive drill and medals presented by the Morgan ¥. Knadler Post of the United States War Veterans were awarded to the corporal and the squad members. Medals were also presented to the members of the Girls ' Rifle Team by the Kiwanis Club. Company B won the compan)- competition, and was designated as the color company for the present year. Summer camp, a big event in the lives of the Advanced students, was spent in 1930 at Fort George Wright. Washington. This beautiful but small fort is located just outside Spokane, and the natural beauty and rugged ter- rain make it an ideal location for the study of military science and tactics. With the opening of the fall quarter, returning students found new, distinctive uniforms awaiting them. These were a great improvement over previous ones, and added greatly to the appearance of the unit. Later, leather belts with the Wyoming seal on the brass buckle were purchased for the en- tire corps, and replaced the old web belts to great advantage. The band, too, has been dressed up during the year, and what with their new brown and yel- low silk capes and caps make quite an appearance on parade. The twenty-ninth annual Cadet Ball, held February 13, was one of the big social events of the year. The big gymnasium was colorfully decorated in militaristic-futuristic style, and with subdued flood lights made a veritable garden of color over the entire gymnasium. Several hundred couples attend- ed, including officers and their ladies from Fort Warren, and cadet officers from Colorado Agricultural College and Colorado School of Mines.

Scabbard and Blade is a national military society made up of selected cadet officers at colleges and universities where there are companies of the society. At present there are seventy-eight companies at as many different institutions offering baccalaureate degrees. The society was founded at the University of Wisconsin in 1905, with the formation of A Company, First Regiment. The purpose of Scabbard and Blade is to raise the standard of military training in American colleges and universities, to unite in closer relationship their military departments, to encourage and foster the essential qualities of good and efficient officers and to promote intimacy and good fellowship among the cadet officers. The society offers trophies each year for rifle and pistol competition between R. O. T. C. units. MEMBERS Harry Bridenstine, 2d Lieut.

II Page 170 Chei cinic, iciinicr of tatc Ba lathaU Title. HIGH SCHOOL WEEK THE Fourteenth Annual University of Wyoming High School Week, staged during the spring vacation, was one of the largest and most suc- cessful ever held since their i nception in 191 7, over 700 high school hoys and girls from 63 Wyoming high schools taking part. The High School Weeks have proven to be a remarkably successful way to provide personal contact between the University and the high school students of the state. They have played a large part in the rapid growth of the Ihiiversity in the last decade. Each year the campus is transformed into a miniature city, as from six to seven hundred contestants, and as many other visitors, descend upon the University to be its guests for a week. Forty-nine basketl:)all teams entered the tournament this year, which was but three less than the previous year, in spite of the new method of classification which cut down the number of teams eligible for the state championship. The teams were divided into four classes, one championship class, and three classes determined by the male enrollment of the high schoo ls. Entrants in the championship class were determined by district tournaments except in the southwest district, where the entrants were picked on the basis of season ' s records. Play in the championship class was on the so-called Hicks plan, providing for one defeat elimination and a consolation tourna- ment for the losers in the first round, in order to give every team entered a chance to play in at least two games. Classes B, C, and D played on the usual two game eliminati( n plan, which has been the custom of the tourney for many years. The winner of the championship class was automatically the state champion. Unlike the year before, when the tournament was from the start a race between Wheatland and the rest of the field, there was no outstanding fa- vorite for the title, all the teams being evenly matched on their season records. 1 ill i H Page 171 n Class B. Cheyenne, the winner of the title, proved themselves to be the best tournament team, al- though their games with Rock Springs in the semi- finals, and Laramie in the finals, were closer than the scores of 19 to 11 and 28 to 17 would indicate. Kem- merer and Byron both s h o w e d themselves to be strong- teams and had Byron displayed the form in their first game that they did in the consolation tournament, they might have gone far. Byron won the consolation tourney with little difficulty save for the final game with Cowley. The consolation semi-final game between Cowley and Buffalo, which the former won after three extra periods, was one of the feature games of the tournament. The teams entered in the championship class were Rock Spri ngs, Lyman, Kemmerer, Casper, Cheyenne, Laramie, Wheatland, Evanston, Glenrock, Byron, Cowley, Worlancl, Lander, Gillette, Buffalo, and Sundance. Play in class B soon resolved itself into a duel between Hanna and Raw- lins, these teams dominating the class, although Lusk, Preps, and Green River had good teams. Both teams defeated each other during the early games of the tournament, and met in the finals, Hanna emerging the victor, 17 to 14. h teams in this division were Torrington, Rawlins, Lusk, Jackson, Green River, Superior, Basin, Preps, Hanna, and Lingle. Cokeville proved to be the class of class C, going through the tourna- ment without a defeat, although Chugwater forced the title game into an extra period before succumbing to the steadier play of Cokeville. Guernsey and Manderson made good records in class C. Other teams entered in class C were Pine Bluffs, Saratoga, Hillsdale, Glendo, and Upton. Teams in class D were more closely matched than any of the others, and no favorite ruled even to the final game. One and two point victories were the rule in this division. Car- penter won by defeating Eg- bert 17 to 9 in the finals. But four games in class D were decided by more than 20 points. Veteran, with but eight male students enrolled a n d winner the previous year, made a good showing, but could not cjuite take the title. But four games in class D were decided by more than 20 points. The entrants in this class were Baggs, Carpenter, Hawk Springs, Cokeville, winners Class C. Page 172 II Carpenter, winners Class D. Fort Laramie, Iowa Center, Medicine Bow, Rock River, Veteran, Egbert, Encamp- ment, Big ' Piney, and Mc- Fadden. The official all-state honor team, picked by the varsity basketball of the University, this year consisted of Robert Stine, Cheyenne, and Frank Ferrarini. Kemmerer, for- wards ; George Hittner, Lar- amie, center ; Don Totten- hoff, Cheyenne, captain and guard ; L. Pentila, Rock Springs, guard, and Jack Clark, Laramie, utility. The second team was Don- ald Young, Kemmerer, and Earl Wilkinson, Cheyenne, forwards ; Jesse Smith, Evanston, center; Don Titus, Wheatland, and E. Radakovich, Rock Springs, guards. Sixteen schools from all over the state were represented among the win- ners in the academic contests, which drew the largest number of entrants in the history of the tournament. Debate teams from 28 schools were entered in the tournament, which was won by Rock Springs, represented by Lavina Postel and Elwood Heiner. Laramie, represented by Jack Woodford and Phil Hurwitz, was runner-up. Winners in other academic events were as follows : Reading, Sadie Mae Boggs, Sheridan, first; Tammy McDonald, Greybull, second. Essay, Helen Mills, Wheatland, first ; Kenneth Poch, Pine Bluffs, second. Oratory, Gray Bream, Casper, first; Katherine Absher, Torrington, Maxine Mitchell, Powell, tied for second. The winner of the special essay prize, instituted by the Wy- oming Federation of Women ' s Clubs, was won by Betty Jackson oi Newcastle. First place in the piano contest was won by Zella Wyatt of Casper, second place going to George Miles of Torrington. The violin contest was won by Olga Sarcletti of Rock Springs, w-ith Alfred Mokler. Thermopohs, second. Voice, Dolly Boullette, Lander, first; William Purdy, Kemmerer, second. In the commerce con- tests, Walter Scott of Gil- lette, won first place in the novice typewriting contest, followed by Ralph Sundin of Rawlins. Miss Helen Tarver, also of Gillette, won first in the amateur tvpe writing contest, a n d Elaine Cook of Evanston was second. Amateur short- hand went to Myrtle Clus- ter of Laramie, wMth An- gela Kershisnick of Rock Winners in Academic Contests. Springs, second. 1 ' I I: 5 I Page 173 ORGANIZAIIONS SCHOLASTIC HONORARIES PHI KAPPA PHI CT ai KAPPA PHI is a national honorary scholarship fraternity composed -■- of professors, graduate and undergraduate students elected from all de- partments or colleges of the university in which a chapter is located. The number of undergraduate members is restricted to not exceeding the upper one-fifth of the graduating class, who have distinguished themselves by scholarship, character and service in their college or university. Phi Kappa Phi was organized in 1898 at the University of Maine by men who saw the need of an honor society formed on broader lines than any then in existence. Its primary object is to emphasize scholarship in the thought of college students, to hold fast to the original purpose for which it was founded, and to stimulate mental achievement by the prize of mem- bership. The fraternity has expanded until there are now 45 chapters. The local chapter was established in 1922. OFFICERS DR. LAURA A. WHITE- - President RALPH E. McWHINNIE Vice-President DR. CLARA F.

The society has fifty-two chapters and a membership of about 20,000. The main essential to this organization is high scholarship, but character and promise of advancement in scientific fields are also taken into consideration. Various chapters specialize in different kinds of work, some emphasizing re- search work and experimentation, some aiding in the interpretation of science to the general public, while others work for social contacts between the scien- tific workers. The Wyoming chapter stresses research and experimentation. The local chapter was installed in 1929, a charter being granted to the Science Club, which for some years had been active on the Wyoming campus. OFFICERS CECIL ELDER President JOHN A.

A THLETICS III! U ATHLETIC ADMINISTRATION JOHN R. RHODES Athletic Director CZyEHlKD all athletics at the University of Vyoming- is the A. S. LI. W., - ' - ' which manages all the finances and arranges the schedules for the va- rious teams, in co-operation with the Director of Athletics. The A. S. U. W. has been singularly successful with athletic management, particularly in view of the fact that Wyoming is one of the few universities in which footliall does not leave a profit to finance other sports. The Carnegie Institute investi- gation of college athletics two years ago brought to light the fact that the FOOTBALL COACHING STAFF ' S v ' i W%r r ji Nliodes, Head Coach; Faisch, Line; Coughlin, Ass ' t Freshniaii; Liiek, Ends; Witfe, Freshman; Lee, Ass ' t Trainer. i i I Page 235 -ff-i-fi WILLARD WITTE Basketball Coach University of Wyoming was one of three col- leges in which true undergraduate control of athletics existed. John Choppy Rhodes, one of the youngest athletic directors in the country, is completing his first year at the helm of Cowboy athletics, and has put new life into the athletic program. Be- sides being athletic director, Rhodes also is head football and track coach. On the football coaching staff Coach Rhodes had a number of capable men helping him. Clar- ence Raisch, a former Nebraska star, had charge of the line, while Coach Willard Witte handled the freshmen team, and found time to help Chop- py with the varsity backfield. Assisting Witte with the yearlings was Charles Coughlin, and the ends were under the direction of Capt. Harry C. Luck. Willard Witte, head basketball mentor, won himself the title of miracle man, by taking over the Cowboy cagers in his first year of coaching, and with little experienced material, succeeded in developing a team that won the Division championship, and lost tlie conference title by a narrow margin. Chuck Coughlin. all-conference guard with Wyoming in 1930, was Witte ' s assistant, and was largely responsible for the strong defense that character- ized the 193 1 machine. Swimming for the past two years has been under the direction of C. L. Porter, former University of Michigan star. During this time the Cowboy mermen have made good records, although material has not been exceptional. Clarence Raisch, besides being line coach for the football squad, took over the Wyoming wrestlers this year, and made a good record, the Cowboys tak- ing third in the division meet. Tumbling and gymnastic activities have been in the hands of Raymond Frazer for a number of years, and under his able direction Wyoming has al- ways had strong teams. Frazer also handles the boxers. This spring Coach Rhodes takes charge of the track squad for the first time. In the past Wyoming has been handicapped by the late springs of the high altitude in developing track teams. Vith the completion of an indoor track in the armory, W yoming should be in better shape for track hereafter.

W CLUB THE V Club is an organization composed of all men who have won one or more letters in varsity athletic competition, for the purpose of bringing into closer unity those men who have played together in some branch of sport. Besides its honorary significance, it helps in orienting freshmen, and takes an active part in campus affairs. Last fall the VV Club dance held the first Friday night of the school year, proved to be an excel- lent get-together mixer for the entire school. When Wyoming played Utah for the basketball championship in Salt Lake City in March, the W Club leased wires, and gave a complete telephoned play-by-play account of the three-game series for the benefit of the student body that remained at home. The club permitted several other towns to take advantage of its service, so that play-by-play accounts were received in Wheatland and Cheyenne also. The club is trying to arrange for a club room so that the future athletes will have a place to get together. A. J. Richard Jack McNiff Bob Laughlln, Vice-Pres. Dave Kidd Ben Joyce John Turner, Pres.

THE 1930 FOOTBALL SEASON THE story of the 1930 football season is that of a gradually improving team which found itself in the latter part of the season, and demonstrated that Wyoming could produce winning football teams. John Choppy Rhodes took over the reins as head coach this fall, and with little time to become acquainted with his material, or install his new system, was forced to take on four of the strongest conference teams on consecutive Saturdays, beginning in September. In spite of this handicap, Rhodes and his Cowboys scored on every team played, except for the mighty Utah outfit, and during the last half of the season won two games, tied one, and lost one. On the 1930 squad. Captain Dave Kidd, Ben Joyce, and Sammy Hale played their last games for the Brown and Yellow. Captain Kidd is one of the best all-around linemen to play on a Cowboy eleven in years, and will be missed greatly. Joyce is the most aggressive player on the squad and has been a sparkling end. Hale ' s work at quarterback and his open field running made him one of the best known signal callers in the conference. All these men will be missed next fall.

Dave ' s work at end tackle during his career at Wyoming- has been outstanding. Com- ing to Wyoming after a year at the University of Illinois, where he captained the Illini frosh eleven, Dave has been a star line- man throughout his three years. 1931 PROSPECTS SELDOM has Wyoming faced a football season with as bright prospects as is the case this year. With John Choppy Rhodes ' system well in- stalled, and an excellent coaching staff assisting, the best drilled and smoothest working machine in years is in prospect. But three of the 27 men recom- mended for letters will be lost by graduation, and the greatest frosh team in years will bolster up the veterans. The freshman line averaged well over 190 pounds and the backfield contained a number of stars. With a wealth of material and a proven coaching system, Wyoming should have a great season in 1931. The Cowboy schedule for 193 1 includes games Avith Creigh- ton, Brigham Young, Colorado Aggies, New Mexico, Montana State. Utah State, Santa Clara University, Colorado Teachers, and Chadron Normal. 5  I! 1 S Page 241 The Wyoming line stops a CoiKjar line phiinje. WYOMING-BRIGHAM YOUNG BEN JOYCE End C7 Q WYOMING ' S 1930 Cowboy football team J opened tbe season at home against the Brigham Young University Cougars, in a game that was watched with unusual interest. Although Wyoming lost the game. 19 to 12, the team thrilled its followers by its great stand against the title-contending Cougars. Trailing 19 to o after a shaky first half, the Cowboys suddenly found themselves and began a drive that soon had the Cougars with their backs to the wall. At the opening of the second half, after receiving the opening kick-off, the Cow- boys on three plays drove across the B. Y. U. goal line. After battling in mid-field several minutes, Dir intercepted a Cougar pass and raced 62 vards for another score. Wyoming was advancing rapidly when the game ended.

Realizing that the game was hopeless, Coach Rhodes chose to start a team composed mostly of substitutes, saving his reg- ulars for the remainder of a hard schedule. Utah was anxious to make an auspicious start, and with Wyoming below par and the Utes on edge, the result was a rout. Utah piling up y2 points to none for Wyoming. In this game the Cowboys ' fatal weakness that cost them several games during the season, an inability to stop forward passes, was again evident.

It was a bitter defeat to take, for Wyoming had things in hand during the first half and last quarter. In the first Cjuarter, Wyoming drove on straight football 67 yards to the Bobcat goal line. Wyoming failed to kick goal. Dir was proving to be almost unstoppable. Then came the fatal third quarter, when the Bobcats scored three touchdowns entirely by the aerial route. The Cowboys recovered, and in the final stan- za again dominated, scoring a touchdown and kicking goal.

The Farmers won 13 to 8, by scoring twice in the first five minutes of play. The Aggies caug ' ht Wyoming off guard at the start of the game, and Gillespie raced 70 yards for a marker in the first minute. Before the Cowboys could recover, Aggies pushed across for another touchdown. This ended the scoring for Utah, and for the rest of the game Wyoming held the edge. In the final quarter Ross punted to the Aggie one-yard line, and when Aggies at- tempted to kick the slippery ball, they fumbled, and recovered behind their goal, giving Wyo- ming a safety. Later Barnes culminated a drive by crashing over for a touchdown. WALTER KINGHAM Taclde HARRY BARNES Full CHARLES HUMPHRIES Quarter „u i Page 245 R 11 A Cowhoy hack finds a hole i)i the Teacher line.

The Cowboys appeared over-trained, and although they roused themselves after the Teachers scored in the third quarter, and man- aged to tie the count, the winning punch was lacking. During the first half of the game neither team threatened, both being content to exchange punts. In the third C]uarter the bril- liant Butler of Teachers broke loose and push- ed across the Cowboys ' goal line. Aroused by the possibility of defeat, Wyoming rallied, and with three sparkling runs by Dir, Cowboy star offensive man, pushed 55 yards for a tying marker.

FRESHMAN FOOTBALL THE University of Wyoming freshman football team for 1930 was one of the finest that Wyoming has ever had. The yearlings had a first string linenp that outweighed the varsity considerably, having a line that averaged more than 190 pounds, and a backfield that averaged 175. Fifty men worked out under coaches Witte and Coughlin during the year, and 28 were awarded numerals for their work. In their first game of the season against the 20th Infantry at Ft. Warren, they were held to a scoreless tie in a game played in a blinding snow storm. Later in the season they tangled with Colorado Teachers Frosh, and trounced them soundly, 31 to 13. The final game was played on the home field against the Colorado Aggie Frosh. The Farmer yearlings had a line that averaged 195, and were reputed the greatest frosh aggregation in the Aggie history.

CHAMPIONS CI ' HE 1 930- 1 93 1 Cowboy basketball machine, in one of the most sensational -■■ developments in the history of the conference, rose from an nnknown and doubtful quantity at the start of the season to the general recognition as the class of the conference. With little experienced material to work with, and Coach Dutch A ' itte in his first year as a basketball mentor, the outlook was none too promising. A combination of several veterans and a number of brilliant newcomers, under VVitte ' s guidance, rapidly developed into a sensa- tional machine, and after dropping the initial conference clash to Colorado Teachers, the Cowboys swept through the remaining eleven games without a defeat, to become champions of the eastern division of the Rocky Mountain Conference. The Cowboys, composed of one junior, two sophomores, and two freshmen, then journeyed to Salt Lake City, and were barely nosed out of the conference title, Utah taking the deciding third game by one point in an overtime period game.

A fine leader and an excellent guard, Gaer ' s loss made a hole in the Cowboy defense that was hard to fill. THE BASKETBALL SEASON THE Wyoming Cagers opened the season in a two-game series against Brigham Young University, after two practice games with the Rock Springs U. P. ckib, which were won with ease. The Cougars and the Cow- boys battled on aUnost e ' en terms during most of the first game, alth( ugh Wyoming hekl a sHght lead at the half, i6 to 14. In the second half the Cougars pulled away, with some brilliant shooting by Romney (who subse- quently made the All-American third team), but Wyoming rallied, due main- ly to the shooting of Rider, freshman flash, who counted three goals, one in the last 10 seconds of play, that won the game, 37 to 36. Romney led the field in scoring, counting ten field goals and a free toss. Witte led Wyoming with 13 points, B. Y. U. took the second game of the series the following night when f Page 253 ilii ' M JOE SCHWARTZ Forward the Cowboy defense failed to function. The speedy passing Cougars found the Wyoming guards out of position time after time, and scored a number of easy set-ups. Both teams were shoot- ing more accurately than the previous night, with the Mormons holding the edge. Romney again led the scorers wuth 19 points, while Schwartz was high point man for Wyoming with 14 points. The Cougars continued on a barnstorming trip, during which they defeated Chicago, St. Louis, and Nebraska universities, among others. In spite of the raggedness of play, the Cowboy young- sters showed possibilities. Resuming play after the Christmas holidays, the Cowboys opened the conference schedule by journeying to the lair of the Colorado Teacher Bears. The Bears had just completed a hol- , ' ■ iday barnstorming trip and were at the top of their game. Controlling the tip-off and using their great height to advantage, the Teach- ers defeated the Cowboys 34 to zy. Although the game was lost, it enabled Coach Witte to find an effective combination. The moving of Witte to forward and insertion of Rugg at the running guard position proved to be the necessary shift to start the Cowboys functioning. Witte scored 18 points to lead the field in scoring, and Rugg ' s work at guard was outstanding. Rugg and Kim- ball, both former centers, soon developed into the finest pair of guards in the conference. The Brown and Yellow opened the home con- ference season against Denver University, and sounded a warning to r ■ ■■ 1 i KENNETH RUGG Q-uard JACK McNIFF Center the conference by de- cisively trouncing the Pioneers, 47 to 28. The Cowboys started slowly, and held a scant 15 to 14 lead at the half. Late in the second half they suddenly started a whirl- wind attack that left Denver gasping and help- less. The Pioneers had rallied and taken an 8- point lead, when the Cowboys broke loose with a barrage of baskets that gave them a one-sided victory. The play of Casey Rugg was outstand- ing, the stellar guard being all over the court, and counting ten points as well. Joe Schwartz led the pack in scoring with seven goals and two free tosses. With Denver temporarily out of the way, Wy- oming turned attention to Colorado University, division champions, who, with all members of the championship team back save one, were doped Page 254 as the team to beat for the championship. Be- fore 3,500 fans, the Cowboys turned back the champs 34 to 29, leading practically all the way. Jack McNiff covered Middlemist, star center of the Silver and Gold, holding him scoreless from the field, and with their big gun silenced, the State cagers were helpless. Moving to Boulder, the two quintets resumed hostilities in the next game on the schedule, and before a dumfounded crowd who believed Wyo- ming could not win away from home, the Brown and Yellow mowed down the erstwhile champs 36 to 26 and assumed the position of title fa- vorites. Uncanny accuracy at the free throw mark was the factor that prc duced the Cowboy win, 18 out of 22 tries finding their way into the netting for the Cowboys. McNiff LESLIE WITTE Foricard JOHN KIMBALL Ouard again held the great Middlemist helpless. For the benefit of the visiting legislature from Cheyenne, the Cowboys scheduled a non-confer- ence tilt with the Kearney, Nebr., Teachers, w ' ho were leading the Nebraska conference. The Teachers were helpless before Wvoming ' s fast passing, the Cowboys collecting a 24 to 4 lead at the half time. Witte used every man on his squad in winning, 38 to 17. Following the non-conference breather, the Cowboys journeyed over the Divide to tangle with the Western State five. The Mountaineers were considered still in the running for the title, and the winner was doped to be the one to beat Teachers. Western State found themselves un- able to cope with Wy- ominof ' sfastbreakinsf. P - ■ ' ' ■ • ' ■.-yi offense and man-to- man defense and the Brown and Yellow quintet walked off with both games, winning the first y to 28, and the second 39 to 15. Young Witte, whose sharpshooting was making him the talk of the conference, garnered 22 points during the ser- ies, while Schwartz added 20 to the Wyoming scoring column. Wyoming was now the sensa- tion of the conference. With a squad composed of two juniors, two sophomores, and eight fresh- men, Wyoming had developed into the fastest passing, sharpest shooting, coolest playing team in the division, and it was conceded that the title was a race between Wyoming and the percentage column, as Wyoming had less games than Teach- ers and needed to witi more games than the Bears in order to take the flag. - .-.- ., CLAUDE THOMAS Foncard Page 255 il ED McGINTY Forward The now fast traveling Cowboys found Den- ver on their own floor a harder nut to crack than earher in the season, but managed to win, 29 to 22, by rallying in the final minutes and overcom- ing a five-point lead. Denver led 10 to 12 at the half, due to sharpshooting by Byers, Pioneer guard. Heroic work by Joe Schwartz, who caged four goals in succession in the closing min- utes, brought victory to Wyoming. Schwartz led in scoring, counting seven times from the field and scoring two charity tosses. Moving over to Colorado College for a double- header, the Cowboys advanced two more rungs up the ladder towards the division title. The complex that in former times kept Cowboy fives from winning away from home, completely dis- pelled, Wyomingpro- ceeded to give Dutch Clark ' s proteges a les- son in basketball as played on top of the world. Les Witte, leading scorer of the conference went on a rampage the first night caging seven field goals and two free throws, Wyoming winning 32 to 22. The second night proved easier than the first and Wyoming chalked up her eighth straight conference win, 34 to 16. Colorado Aggies moved onto the half-acre for a two-game series with the Cowboys the follow- ing week-end, and the first night, by putting on the most amazing shooting exhibition ever seen on the Wyoming floor, almost succeeded in up- setting the Brown and Yellow. Counting 15 field tries out of 22 attempts. Aggies played even with W y o m i n g EDWARD ROSS Forward BLAKE FANNING Forirard throughout the con- test, leading 21 to 20 at the half. Schwartz put up a remarkable exhi- bition for Wyoming, scoring 1 1 goals and two free throws, besides playing a wonderful floor game. The race between the basket eyes of the Aggies and Schwartz was a tie, 41 to 41, with but a few seconds to go, when Rugg dashed through the Aggie defense to sink a short shot as the gun sounded. The second night found the Cowboys passing and shooting as of old, and with the Aggie sharp- shooters distinctly less sharp-eyed, an easy victory was the result. Led again by Schwartz, the Cow- boys won their tenth consecutive victory, 43 to 22. Kimball and Rugg kept the Aggie forwards from approaching near the basket, while five for- wards on the squad took turns at bombarding the Page 256 Ag-g ' ie g-oal. Schwartz added 15 points to his total, making- 39 for the two games. The crucial championship g ' ame with Colorado Teachers next faced the Cowboys. The final game of the season, the winner would take the division title. Before a crowd of over 4,000 peo- ple, the Cowboys rose to new heights of perfec- tion in their passing attack, and while the jubi- lant crowd cheered frenziedly, came through with their eleventh consecutive win and the di- vision title, 42 to 38. Sifting through the Teach- er defense with brilliant passing, the Cowboys swept to a 2T, to 12 lead at the half, and during the remainder of the game main tained a lead that could not be overcome. Kimball, giant guard, went out of the game on personals earl} in the half, and McNiff HILTON DEARINGER Guard i 4SSS SS : WILFRED BYRNE Center sprained his ankle. However, Dearinger and McGinty came through in the pinch in a spectacular fashion, and a Teach- er rally was staved off. Witte led the Wyoming attack with 14 points, and Rugg and Schwartz contributed eight each. With the division title safely stowed away for the second time in Wyoming ' s athletic history, the Cowboy Cagers turned their attention toward the Uni ' ersity of ITah Redskins, winners of the Western division, with whom they were to tan- gle for the conference championship. Wyoming startled the conference by taking the Redskins down 7,2 to 27 in the first game, despite the absence of McNiff. It was the first win for an Eastern division team since 1927. Joe Schwartz dazzled the crowd with his shooting. caging seven goals. The win was costly however, as Schwartz drew up with a sprained ankle. The crippled Cowboy youngsters saw the sec- ond game go to the Utes, 40 to 24. With the game slipping from their grasp, the Cowboys seemed content to wait for a supreme effort in the final game. The final and deciding game saw the title e ' l S S ' o to Utah in a heart-breaking game in which Wyo- ming led during almost the entire game, only to see victory slip from their grasp in an o -ertime period, 40 to 39. With McNiff and Schwartz playing with sprained ankles, and ' itte leaving the game early in the first half on personals, the battered Cowboys fought on even terms with the Utes during the entire contest, which ended t, ' all at the expiration of the regular time. !i i] TAFT HARRIS GiKird Page 257 H 11 THE ALL-STAR TEAMS S ELDOM has one team in the Eastern division been represented so well on the all-star teams as has Wyoming- this year. On the all-division team, picked by Curley Grieve of the Rcx ' ky Mountain News, Wyoming placed two men on the first team, Schwartz, who led the division in scoring, and Witte, who was second in scoring, placing at forward. Kimball was given a berth on the second team, and Rugg and McXiff were given honor- able mention. The all-conference team, picked by C. L. Poss Parsons of the Denver Post for the basketball guides, placed Witte and Kimball on the first team, Schwartz on tlie second squad and both Rugg and McNiff were given honor able mention. Had not Schwartz been forced to play in the cham- pionship series with a sprained ankle, he undoubtedly would have made the first team, for he is generally regarded as the greatest individual player to perform in the Eastern division for several years. So near to the same calibre were all the Ccnvboy regulars that many selections differed, although all placed several Cowboys on the first team. The Associated Press selection placed Witte and McNiff on the first team, while the Wyoming Eagle selec- tions placed Schwartz, AA ' itte and Rugg on the all-division team. PROSPECTS FOR 1931-1932 Seldom has any college had such bright athletic prospects as has Wyo- ming in basketball for the coming year. The entire squad that won the East- ern division title, and was barely nosed out for the conference title, will be back next year. Of the five men who started a majority of the games this year, McNiff is a junior. Schwartz and Rugg are sophomores, and Witte and Kimball are freshmen. The possibilities for a great team at Wyoming have brought national attention. Lawrence F erry, nationally known sports critic, writing in his nationally syndicated column, says of the Cowboys, in part : Coach Witte at Wyoming has another brilliant crew of youngsters coming up comparable to the Montana State Bobcats, conc[uerors of national cham- pionship fives. Kimball is the greatest guard since Breeden of Montana, and Les Witte, brother of the coach and former Nebraska prep star, is like Cat Thompson except that he is a lefthanded shooter and dribbler and exceedingly hard to stop when coming down from the off-side of the floor. Rugg, a brilliant floorman, and the veteran Schwartz are polished performers, as is also Ed McGinty, the former All-American scholastic forward. through The Cowboys are preparing a schedule designed to take them the Middle West next season, playing leading Big Six and Big Ten teams. Judging by the success of B. Y. U. this year on a similar trip, after being beaten by the Cowboys, Coach Witte ' s youngsters should make an impres- sive showing. i ti Page 258 MINOR SPORTS S h!

Colorado won the meet with 113 points, Wyoming accumulating 28. Turner ' s fine running in the cjuarter gave Wyoming its only first. The following week a dual went to Colorado College, 882-3 to 51 1-3. Scott, Turner, Hale, Gray and Shelton won first places in their events for the Cowboys. The Cowboy track sc(uad entered the annual Boulder Relays, but failed to win a first place in competition against schools from all over the West. Colorado University retained its championship. The Cowboys took fifth place at the Eastern division meet. Turner win- ning the championship in the quarter mile for the only Cowboy first place. While it is too early to predict the Cowboy track success for 1931, in- dications are that Wyoming will be stronger, as much veteran material is available, and with the completion of the indoor track in the armory, the climate handicap should be lessened. An interesting sidelight on Cowboy track is the fact that Paul Scott, dash man of last 3 ear, was one of the three Americans on the Oxford track team in its famous annual dual with Cambridge. ,1 Page 260 :i J ' H - IS  rP «?«P i B - Top How — Uaitf.

SWIMMING THE Wyoming swimming team finished a fairly snccessfnl season, con- sidering the fact that Coach C. L. Porter had but two veterans to mould his team around. Capt. Robert Laughlin and James Simon were the only two letter men available when Porter first issued the call for mermen. The first meet of the season, shortly after the holidays was a dual with Colorado Aggies. The lack of veteran material was evident, as Aggies won 47 to 26. Laughlin, Simon and Whitehead did the best work for the Cowboys. Against Colorado Teachers at Greeley the Cowboy swimmers found an improved Teacher scjuad, and were forced to bow 43 J ? to 25 . Laughlin, Simon, Holden, Whitehead, Hill, and Kraft w ' ere all point getters for Wyo- ming. The Cowboys played host to the division swimmers in the annual Eastern division meet to close the season, and finding the big pool to their liking, the powerful C. L . squad walked off with the division title for the second con- secutive year. Teachers finished second and Wyoming third. Colorado Ag- gies were unable to arrive because of a snow storm. The division champions at Boulder took the Cowboys into camp, 63 to 13, in the Boulder pool. Wyoming failed to garner a first place. ■ I ' Mi lln Page 261 I! Till) h ' oic — Corbett, llmbaclt.

Clark and Hemenover won their matches. At the conference meet the Cowboys finished third, and had not Umbach fractured a rib in the preliminaries, might have finished near C. U., who won the title.

HOCKEY C ) ' ' ' completion of the 350-foot ice skating rink on the campus, ■ W3 ' oming- put its first ice hockey team into the field, and built the foundation for the coming year, when hockey will become an official confer- ence sport. The team was recruited from stars of the intramural teams, with Humphries and Gammeter as the nucleus. Two varsity matches were com- peted in, both with Colorado School of Mines, Mines taking both contests, 5 to 3 and 5 to I. With a year ' s experience behind them, the Cowboy skaters should play a leading- part in the conference ice programs. Besides hockey, a curling rink is a part of the ice equipment, and proved to be a popular sport. President Crane is an expert curler, and sponsored the sport on the campus. TENNIS AND GOLF The varsity golf activities of 1930 were confined to the division meet at Denver, v lthough the Cowboy team took fifth place, Jay Gaer was runner-up to the division championship, narrowly missing the championship by a few strokes. The 1930 tennis team opened the season with a dual meet with Colorado Aggies at Ft. Collins, and the Farmers were victorious, 5 to 3. Kellog, play- ing No. I, and Hardin, were victors in their single matches, and Kellog and Anderson won their double match. A swing through the Colorado section of the division later in the spring by Kellog, Anderson, Burley, McClintock, Hardin, and Sullivan, found the Colorado College and Colorado University courts rained out, so the only matches of the trip were played at Teachers. Teachers walloped the Cowboys, 6 to I, only Burley turning in a victory for Wyoming. ii ,!i Page 264 WOMEN ' S ATHLETICS Tiiji li ' iiir — fj ' issolo, Harris, Hill, Hittiier, Frcderic1x K.

WOMEN ' S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION THE W()men ' s Athletic Association is a national honorary organization composed of women who are outstanding ' in athletics. Its purpose is to promote health, democracy and sportsmanship in the student body, to de- velop an interest in athletics, and to sponsor intramural and class games. One hundred points are necessar}- to membership, points being granted for athletic participation. One thousand points entitles a member to the yhighest award, a white sweater with the yellow letters W. A. A. Six girls were awarded sweaters this year. They were Ariel Fredrick, Cathryn John- son, Mildred Hittner, Jane Magill, Clara Powell, and Clara Raab.

WOMEN ' S RIFLE TEAM r ED by Bernice Keating, team captain, the Women ' s Rifle Team de- featecl several of the hardest shooting coed teams in the United States this season. They won the title of Rocky Mountain Conference Champions for Women in small bore indoor rifle marksmanship by defeating the Uni- versity of Utah. For their excellence in shooting, members of the team won points in the W. A. A. as follows: Burke and M. Condict, 225; Piatt, 200; Biggs, 175; Mullens, Orr, Raab, Meyers, Thompson, and Keating, 150; Campbell and Morgenweck, 125; and B. Condict and A. Slade, 100. The title of the Best Woman Shot Small Bore Indoor Rifle Marksmanship, Season 1930-193 1, University of Wyoming, was won by M. Condict, with a score of 967 out of a possible 1,000. A beautiful silver cup was her reward. A. Burke placed second. Captain Harry C. Luck, Infantry, D. O. L., coached the team, and Cadet Captain Victor Mullens acted as assistant coach. The average score per position in all matches of the team was 96.65. while that of their opponents was 96.625. The record of the season ' s competition is as follows : WON FROM Carnegie Inst University of University of University of University of University of Northwestern of Tecli. Nebraska California Missouri Utah Michigan University LOST TO University of Washington So. Dakota State College University of Wichita Michigan State College University of Maine University of Penn. University of Kansas University of Maryland University of Vermont Hi Page 267 i I i i im lUi WOMEN ' S ATHLETIC ACTIVITIES CT hAY DAY, which is the annual g-et-together of the five Colorado col- - - leges and the University of Wyoming, was held last year at Colorado College. This is one of the outstanding events of the year. The privilege of being one of the lucky twelve chosen to go to Play Day is highly coveted. The competition at Play Day is organized in such a way that members of all of the colleges work together for the honor of one of two color teams. Competition includes track events, baseball, basketball, and swimming. The swimming was held last year in the beautiful pool of the Broadmoor Hotel. The Play Day this year will be held in Boulder. The interest in hockey during the fall term reached a high pitch. The intramural tournament ended in a tie between Pi Beta Phi and Hoyt Hall. Neither team seemed able to break the defense of the other and drive through for a goal. Long after the second half ended with a tie score o-o, the teams struggled on trying to break the tie until darkness terminated the game with the score still o-o. The inter-class tournament resulted in a victory for the sophomores. An honorary varsity team was selected which made a trip to Fort Collins on November 8 and lost to the Aggie girls with a score of 5-1. The following week the Aggie girls played a return game here and lost to Wyoming 2-0. The annual fall week-end camping trip for the junior and senior majors of the department of Physical Education was held this year at Scout Lodge on Pole Mountain. Rain and darkness added zest to the wood gathering, fire making and supper preparations that first night. The heroic candle-light de- fense staged by certain members of the part} against the raid of an army of rats upon the pantry saved the supplies and furnished an unusual entertain- ment for the more timid who kept to their beds. The moonlit brilliance of the second night Avas even more distracting than the excitement of the preced- ing night in keeping the camp awake. In the interim between Hockey and Basketball seasons, an inter-class Vol- ley Ball tournament was held which resulted in a championship for the Junior- Senior team. The interest of the winter term centered around intramural and inter-class basketball tournaments. The final game between Pi Beta Phi and Delta Delta Delta, which resulted in a 26-24 victory for Pi Beta Phi, was the out- standing game of the tournament. The sophomores won the inter-class tour- nament. A new W. A. A. activity has been introduced this year which has not only aroused interest among the students but has attracted attention in the community of Laramie. This activity is Dancing to Poetry. Many unusual and beautiful dances have been developed by the group in translating into motion the thoughts of the master poets. This group made five public ap- pearances during the winter term. Page 268 INTRAMURAL SPORTS SWIMMING CT HE intramural athletic season was opened in December with the intra- - ■ mural swimming meet, which was won by Alpha Tau Omega fraternity when their well balanced team won out by placing in every event. Strong competition was offered by Sigma Nu, winner the two previous years, who placed second, and Sigma Chi, who finished third. The meet brought entries from every fraternity on the campus and also the Men ' s Dorm, in accordance with the regulations of intramural play, which made it necessary for each organization to enter every intramural event in order to be eligible for the all-intramural troplw. HOCKEY The completion of the new skating rink on the campus inaugurated a new intramural sport, when the intramural ice hockey league was formed. Sigma Chi won the first hockey title by going through the season undefeated. The crucial game came early in the tournament when Sigma Chi defeated Sigma Nu after trailing the first two periods. The Faculty Club, with such stars as John Corbett, former Ail-American, and the Men ' s Residence Hall had strong teams and finished second and third respectively. BOXING AND WRESTLING The annual boxing and wrestling tournament resulted in a win in box- ing for Sigma Chi, while Alpha Tau Omega took first place in the wrestling tournament. The competition was close in both sections, the victorious teams winning on 15 points each. BASKETBALL Basketball, the most popular of all intramural sports, was won by Alpha Tau Omega after a hard race. Twelve teams entered the league, Avhich was divided into two divisions. Alpha Tau Omega won its division when it de- feated the strong Dorm team after trailing almost the entire game. Kappa Sigma defeated Sigma Nu, last year ' s champion, to win the other division. In a thrilling nip and tuck struggle. Alpha Tau Omega won in the last thirty seconds of play from Kappa Sigma in the finals, 24 to 23. GOLF Intramural golf, the first of a spring intramural sports program which includes tennis, baseball, golf, track and horseshoes, was won by Sigma Alpha Epsilon. The tournament was on a 36-hole medal play basis, and the S. A. E. team composed of Jay Gaer and Sin Ridgley turned in a score of 342 to win first place. Sigma Chi placed second and Kappa Sigma third. Page 270 IIIL RESIDENCE HALL BASKETBALL TEAM StainUiKj — (hiffUhs, WttJkrr, Stevcii-son, BnisJi, Kvlhj. pdfcd — Li)i(](ihJ, Rider, Hoivell. MEN ' S RESIDENCE HALL NTRAMURAL athlet- ics have had an import- ant new factor added in the Men ' s Residence Hall, whose teams have played an important part in all in- tramnral activities. With the completion of the dorm- itory in 1928, intramurals heg ' an to play a more im- l)i rtant part in the college athletic program. Intra- murals had heen previously almost exclusively an inter- fraternity affair. T h e H a 1 1 haskethall teams have heen particularly strong , heing l)arely nosed out of the title hy the winners for the i)ast two years. But two defeats have heen sustained in the two years, ddiis year ' s team was nosed out in the semi-finals hy A. T. O., the winner, after leading- for three-fourths of the game. The dormitory hockey team was one of the strongest entered in the ice event, and was defeated only by the Sigma Chi and Faculty Club outfits. Besides the athletics, the dormitory has a full social schedule, the usual two dances being given each quarter in the large social room, and other smokers, informal dances and open houses being given. The Hall also oper- ates as an organization, and holds meetings regularly, many of which are featured by interesting speakers. The student officers of the Hall are elected each quarter. The fall (juar- ter officers were George Brockway, president; Lloyd Criswell, vice-presi- dent ; Dixon Neiler, secre- tary ; Ethan Harmon, treas- urer, and Jack Howell, ath- letic manager. The winter quarter officers were Lloyd Crisw ell, president ; John Nor m a n. ' ice-president ; Earl Johnson, secretary ; Phil Konkel, treasurer; and Jack Howell, athletic man- ager. John Norman was elected president for the spring quarter, with Clif- ford Hansen as vice-presi- dent, Jack Ferren as secre- tary, Dan Griffen as treas- urer, and Jack Howell again as athletic manager.

Mr. Foresman, of the Christian En- deavor Society and two fellers from the Epworth League, Misters Cooper and Cooley was with me. They ' re all jolly fellers and we was enjoying ourselves muchly when all of a sudden we heard a ghostly busy signal from over the next hill. ' What can it be? ' said Mr. Cooper. ' Ah, who can tell? ' said Mr. Foresman. ' What can it be? ' repeated Mr. Cooley. ' A busy signal, ' I triumphantly replied. And so it turned out to be or not to be, that is, the question.

Why couldn ' t he be satisfied with one and let others take care of the multitude? Why couldn ' t he let well enough alone, plant his pin on me, and be my adoring slave? He couldn ' t — wouldn ' t. He be- lieved he had seen a light (proba- bly street light) and he loved life. He loved the sunny fields, the glor- ious mountains and quiet lakes. (I hope he falls off a cliff or drowns in a lake.) And above all, he loved to be seen as a superior human be- ing. But these are the facts which were revealed to me when I saw him with unveiled eyes.

From this time on all order was gone. Righteousness reverted to chaos, yes, to chaos, as Wyoming ' s triumphant athletes swept onward, ONWARD and ONWARD to the GREATEST victory that old Wyom- ing has ever witnessed. For the yellow and brown athletes won every event, taking first, second, and third places. Even the staid university profes- sors lost their customary decorum and joined the mad scramble of Bacchanalian revelry. Particularly outstanding were Professors Rud- win, Hepner, and Coulter, who played lawn games and hollered Tally-ho in loud childish voices. Then came the night. Skyrockets gleamed, glistened, glittered, glow- ered, glowed, glimmered, and in general gummed up the atmosphere considerably. A huge bonfire was held on the Open Range, at which marshmallows were toasted. Then, after a pajama parade, in which all participated, a rousing cheer for old Wyoming was given and the students all promised on their word of honor, which didn ' t mean any- thing, to come back to classes the next morning, even though it was Sunday.

Last week this victim of life ' s fraud and cruelty plunged to his death from a third-story window in the men ' s dorm, arousing a furor of talk and an excited in- vestigation of the youth ' s life. As fact after fact was revealed to the astonished investigators, excite- ment ran riot, for many heretofore unknown incidents in the youthful editor ' s life were brought to light. The office of the Cowboy Post was mobbed by white-faced coeds, tim- idly inquiring if any names were to be printed. At last the verdict of suicide, caused by an aching heart, was given by the coroner ' s jury. Seven large tears were counted by an ob- servant reporter welling from the tiny brown eyes of one of our more notorious campus beauties at this point in the proceedings. Mr. Holtorf, ever the alert news- paper-man, photographed the scene of the suicide on his dizzy plunge downward. X marks the spot where his toe caught in a cornice ©f the building. PROF.

Page 4 THE COWBOY POST Worst ill Everything ' THE WOMEN ' S MEN BETRAY TRUST Pathetic Story Told By Wyo Coed THE CHAPERON A delightful service given by the TOST for those hav- ing sore hearts, feet, heads, or . Dear Chaperon: May I bring my story to you? Before I came to college, I had never been around men so very much, but I thought that I could at least trust them. But since September I have put my faith in three men, and every time my trust has been betrayed, and I ' m beginning to think that all men are gay deceivers, as my mother would say. The other night I came home from Epworth League w ith a boy who is fraternity man, or at least I think he will be soon, and whom I have gone out with quite a lot. He had promised me on his honor as a gentleman that he would never try to kiss me, and, oh, dear, chaperon, he broke his vow, for while we were sitting in the parlor he seized me violently and tried to kiss me. Of course, I drew back, and he laughed at me. One thing I could never endure is being laughed at, and it made me furious — and then I slapped him! I never in all my life want anyone to look at me the way he did, with the most scorching stare. As I bent over to pick up the hair-pins that were flung all over the floor during the struggle, I could feel his contempt. Now what I don ' t know is whether such a man, one who would betray a woman ' s trust, is worth another thought or whether I should just forget about him. I did what I have always been taught is right in case of such an insult, but he didn ' t seem to like it. If I gave him another chance, do you think he would attempt that again? I hope not, but it may be risky to try. Please write and tell me what you think. Speedy. Dear Speedy : You did exactly what was right, and although I am sorry you had to learn about men while you are so young, still it is better to be disillusioned now than later, with a man that you might really care for. I know that you will find the right man, one with your ideals, and who will not betray your trust, so wait and keep up the good fight. Junie : At your height and age, you should weigh about 276 pounds. If you can train down to this, I am sure you will be success- ful on your team. M. K. : No, it is not proper to sit outside in your escort ' s car. If you feel that you must talk over the evening with him, ask him in to meet the Dean. We must al- ways be very careful of the im- pression we make on others. Margie : Arrange an intro- duction thru this girl who knows the boy in whom you are so inter- ested. Do not make it obvious that it is an arranged thing, tho, or he will think you too bold, and be un- interested before he even knows your sterling character. HOUSEHOLD HELPS Keep a small wooden box near your laundry bills. You will find it convenient to hold the buttons, hooks, etc., that may come off the garments during the washing pro- cess. Sometimes these buttons are difficult to match. Fashion Notes The milliners of London are racking their brains to devise new color combinations, especially in pastel shades. For one new idea they have gone ' way, ' way back to the days when Helen Kane thought violet and pale pink blended beau- tifully. Helen was right, as hose of violet denim and pale pink satin crepe go to prove. Tie Siding seems quite enthusi- astically sold on the idea of back- less suits for spring street wear. Some bright college boy should write the next best seller. He can call it Ex-Roommate. RECIPES Make Hangovers Into De- licious Tempting Dishes Leftovers and hangovers are a problem to any fraternity cook. They can be made into delicious dishes and are a great saving. Here are a few recipes for using the leftovers. Leftovers : Several ginger-ale bottles seven lemon rinds two broken chairs three cups of hot ■ water five used towels one large headache Pick over the remaining bones and serve ' as chicken soup for breakfast. Those who eat it will never know the difference. The same dish may be used for lunch- eon as ham loaf, and for dinner as prune upside-down cake. Economy is the keynote of these recipes. Bright Sayings of Our Children We had little Dorothy at Grand- ma ' s where there was a puppy that would bark for food. After we returned home I heard her say- ing to little Eddie Hanna, a little boy who plays in our neighbor- hood, Bark for it, Eddie, bark for it, and you may have some candy. All of us here at the A. T. O. house thought it quite cute. — Major B. C. D. Little Dickie Grassman was visit- ing his rich uncle in Iowa. He was much interested in the chick- ens, and when he saw one almost bare of feathers he said, Oh look, the little chicken has on its sun suit. We all thought it was rather clever, as Dickie was prob- ably referring to the Man in the Red Flannels. — A. G.

Mr. Cooley, because of his extensive ex- perience in the ' Big Trail, ' led the way. After several weeks of this travel we reached the top of the hill. Mr. Cooley, however, in try- ing to scream like a gopher sneezed and fell, tumbling us all back to the bottom of the hill. ' Ah ' z regusted, ' explained Mr. Cooley. ' Oh, yeah? ' I retorted, quick as a ping-pong serve. We tried to climb again and this time I cleverly contrived to have Mr. Cooley fall forward, bowling us all into the back porch of a beautiful mansion. ' Judas Priest, ' murmured my- self. ' Oh, nerts, ' said Floyd Fores- man. ' Alas, alack-a-day, ' disputed Paul Cooley, that hardy old trail breaker. Mr. Cooper, following the ex- ample of his cousin, Gary, loudly said nothing and lots of it. He carelessly lit a Murad (it had been flying around for some time) and knocked on the door. Once more we were bowled over, as fifty female ghosts rushed out and said as one, ' Sorry, I ' ve got a date. ' ' My God, the Pi Phi ' s, ' we all exclaimed and just ran like the very dickens. STUDENT MANAGER MISTAKEN FOR TRACK STAR AFTER MEET SEIZED AND VIOLENTLY EMBRACED BY ENTHUSIASTIC COED Elton Davis, erstwhile manager of the University student govern- ment was mistaken for Cliff Carroll, winner of the hammer throw and shot-put, at the conference meet held recently at Boulder, as he alighted from the train at Laramie. The disillusioned lass grabbed Davis and showered him with kisses before aid could arrive. Davis was rather embarrassed altho greatly pleased by the acci- dent and stated that he is now thinking of taking up track since it affords greater opportunities for personal contact than does mere managing.

Local police have started work on the case, and it is hoped that the young lad will soon be released by the desperadoes. Further accounts of this tragedy will appear at a later date.

The writer wishes to acknowledge at this time the assistance of Ma, Min and Mike in evolving these selections. For all-full there was one out- standing man. He was consistent and kept his head at all times. Bob Simpson, ladies and gentle- men, also given the place of cap- tain. For the half-full positions, Ned Frost and Harry Bridenstine are named. These boys are high scorers for the year with over 200 pints apiece. They were splendid running-mates, assisting each other at all times. For change we choose a quart-or- back-it-goes. Red Mallelieu gets the call. He certainly knew the signals. For instance, two short and one long at — well, anyway, Red knows the signals. For sender, (they won ' t go after it themselves) there were several good men showing up all season, but Paul Axtell gets the place for his consistent offensive breath. The left and right gourds (a gourd holds mor e than a bottle) would be capably handled against any opposition by Carroll Lynn and Jack Wales. Rod Guthrie, for his powerful showing on many fields, is elected to the boiled mackerel position. In our opinion, a better man for the pickled mackerel position could not be found than Judge Hudson. At one end (five a. m.) is chosen Luke Harrigan. And the bitter end is given to Joe Porter. The team as now lined up needs a coach who knows the game from beginning to end. EEOW! (No- body) Fuller is nominated, with the assistance of Dr. Hebard as trainer. The writer stakes his reputation that this team will hold their own against any in the country.

In my disgrace, I write these confessions with the hope that they may serve as a warning to mothers about to send their boys out into the great wicked maelstrom that is college. Last September, when I first ar- rived at school, I was run to ex- haustion by women during rush week. I had to develop a sense of humor to keep from breaking down at some of the things I heard the women of each sorority say about all the others. And then came dating — for the first three or four weeks, I noticed that most of the girls that upper- classmen took riding were fresh- men, but after that they were us- ually the older, more experienced girls. Oh trusting mothers, don ' t let your little girls flit from the home nest without you — and never, never, let them ride in rent-a-cars. During the winter quarter, I was used chiefly to take dates to and from dances. I loved the gorgeous clothes, and the delicate perfumes of the co-eds. Only I know the price of popularity — what is the secret of gay laughter and many dates and beautiful clothes. Truly, Souls for Sables is the motto of the co-ed. It is better to say NO! and sit at home in oblivion than sell one ' s soul for a ride in a rent-a-car. But it was in the spring that it was revealed to me how flagrantly the laws of our great and broad country are flouted by the college crowd. With the warm weather came picnics, and though I hesitate to reveal it, shattering the illusions of thousands of parents, with the picnics came the Demon Beer. Many is the time I have seen some dainty co-ed, who should be at home in the shelter of her mother, staggering and shouting in a manner that would sicken the most hardened worldling. And instead of the fragrance of her father ' s corn field, or the wholesome odor of Grape-Nuts, that should sur- round a young girl, there is the stench of Liquor. It is no wonder that my light of life has burned out in nine short months, just as the vital spark of those young people, foolishly throwing away their youth on dis- sipation, flares up and then dies, oh, so pitifully young. So I beg you, trusting parents, to think long before you let your nestlings, who are so anxious to be gone, from your loving care. INGALSBE ' S BARBER SHOP Specialty Work 111 Ivinson Laramie, Wyo.

A small figure in starched white moved about the room, flashing shining implements as she placed them upon a side table with dexterous efficiency. A tall man paced restlessly about the room, his hands thrust deep in his pockets. Often his glance fell upon the long white covered table, then roved anxiously towards the door. God, I wish the doctor would come! he muttered half to him- self. He ' ll be too late. The figure in white carefully laid a razor-edged knife on the table. She looked out of the white curtained window. I ' ve given him all the time we can. Everything is ready. Her crisp business-like tone was startling in the silent room. The tall man resumed his im- patient pacing. Suddenly he started. There he is! A man hurried in, depositing a black surgical kit upon a chair. Hurry, doctor, there ' s no time to lose. The girl held out a large white apron. With precise movements the doc- tor cleansed his hands with a thoroughness that brought the worried young man to his side. For the Lord ' s sake!

But you must, Doctor, it ' s late now, and you li now you said you wouldn ' t let anyone else do it. Moments passed. The tall man wheeled away and looked from the window. The doctor ' s long slender hands moved deftly. The knife flashed. Always the white figure was at his elbow, ready to comply to his slightest wish, although her eyes were growing a trifle misty. The tall man ' s eyes blurred, but the doctor worked steadily on, in spite of the fact that his eyes were also growing suspiciously dim. Suddenly he turned away. God! he said. I can ' t go on! It ' s killing me! But you must, Doctor, cried the girl. There ' s so little time, and she blinked her eyes rapidly to free them from the ever-springing tears. Lord, yes! the tall man whirled, exposing, unashamed, a pair of tear-filled eyes. The doctor turned again to the table, and looked down. The_n he wheeled abruptly and threw down the knife.
