AGA QF THE UTAH MAN 1t,s written on a parchment-lilce piece of paper, aged and yellowed, with edges worn hy the hands that cherished it. For the 'Saga of the Utah Man is an old one with its roots huried deep in a log cahin that hlealc No- vemlaer day of 1850 where twenty-five stu- dents met to acquire that which seemed vital to them -1 an education. Tuition was eight dollars that first quar- ter and many, eager to attend classes, could not for lacli of funds. But with a new culture came new prosperity, and men and women crowded into the schoolhouse to study and socialize . . . and to sign their names with quill pens to the already growing list of con- tributors to the Utah Saga. A nineteen memher marching hand was smartly outfitted, sporting at least one of ev- ery ordinary hand instrument, and support- ing the loudly-lauded traclc team, for track was the athletic attraction when foothallwas new and haslcethall was a girl's sport. ln 1951 a huilding was dedicated, nearly completing the Circle. And in 1951, on the stage ol tais edifice, was produced the first Kingsloury Hall production, Nlaterlinclcs The Bluebird. The college population tripled in the years following World War 11. A four-year college of medicine, a graduate school, and other departments were organized to accom- modate the 9,000 students who studied on the lawn, in the lihrary, and over the coffee- stained tahles in the old Union. Art students found themselves in the newly-leased har- raclc huildings ol Fort Douglas, and tieir studios were tiny compartments with shiny Hoors and greying Walls. We are the classes ol the 1960's and we are as much a part of the history as were our predecessors. That which we do shall he re- corded and in our minds, rememhered. Qur homecoming game, the dehate tournaments, and the Junior Prom will hecome important pieces hecause we are the historians of the Saga of the Utah Man.
