THE TURKEY DAY CLAssic Thanltsgivings three-day vacation 'eventually came along, and with it the high spot of the grid season - the traditional game between the Utes and the Barnyard Boys from up north, who this year began referring to themselves as the Utah State Agricultural College. All night previous to the game the Engineers had stayed up painting the streets, and the morning sun Thanksgiving day re- flected off a thousand emblems in red and white, each one sufficient grounds for libel. The Aggies didn't seem to mind, however, and were at the game in all the colorful resplend- ence they can muster on such occasions, tak- ing all bets on their team despite the fact that Utah had already cinched the Rocky Mountain Conference title. ln the big rally held the night preceding the game, in whfich all organizations com- peted for prizes for the best stunt, the Lambclas and Pi Kaps, with their habitual prize-winning ways trotted off with first prizes. The Gamma Sigs and Chi O's were awarded second and third places in the feminine division, while the Utopian club won second place in the men's.

Below-THE LAWYER-Mcoic DANCE AND GAME !J Interesting and entertaining, the society sections say, was this year's premier gridiron battle between the Medics and the Barristers. After four periods of fumbles, fluke passes, illegal tackling and considerable bodily contact, the Barristers won by a seven to nothing count when a fake pass from Iverson to Ireland placed the oval over the line for the only touchdown of the game and the Lawyers converted the extra point, much to the surprise of thc two or three hundred spectators who had been drawn out to Cummings field for the affair. The defeated Medios gave a dinner dance at the Newhouse I-lotel honoring the Lawyers the night after the game, Declicational exercises for the flag-pole of the new Mines building saw such notables as Governor George H. Dern, President George Thomas and Dean R. B. Ketchum in attendance. Governor Dern macle the cledicatory ad- dress, and speakers emphasized the fact that Utah's en- gineering school, now ranking among the best, is constantly striving towards an even higher standing.
