But for the benefit of those who havent (and some of you who have) 1 am going to tell you a few facts about his life, a3 he told them to me. Mr. Anderson was born in El Paso, Texas, where he spent the first twelve years of his life. It was here that he met Walt Brools, who was on a mission at the time, and stayed at his fathers home. Later his fathei was called to be the president of the Mexican Mission, and for the next four years he lived in Mexico City. When he was sixteen, he moved back to El Paso, where he graduated from high school. He then started his schooling at Texas Western University, but was soon called to two years of military service. Hte went through his basic training in Texas, wa3 sent to the Philippine Islands, and then on to Korea. He was out' of Korea before the war started, however, He returned to America and was sent to California on a mission. where he met Quentin Nord-grieSoon after he returned to Salt Lake City, where hie obtained his Masters Degree at the University of Utah last August. This is his first year teaching, and h,e really likes the job. When we asked him if he had a hobby, he said he "dabbled in a lot of things. He likes football and carpentry, "has beten known to enjoy choral work, but that isnt my line, and has a passion for organic chemistry research. From what we haAe seen and heard of Mr. Anderson, it looks as if weve added another excellent teacher to an already superb No teaching staff. PROUDLY WE HAIL As an added feature we the Dixie Sun staff have decided to dedicate space in each issue to the honoring of one of our alumni students who have left but whose memory lingers on. Ties, Dixie is extremely proud to say that La Verna was one of our own students. This dark hair, brown-eye- d beauty was chosen as the Dixie Sun Goddess last year and was also an attendant to the Fine Arts Queen. Through little things like this she advanced to first attendant of Miss Utah; an honor she deserves not only through her looks but through her talent, also. In the middle of her Senior! year at Dixie La Verna was given a scholarship by K.S.U.B. to attend C.S.U. or B.A.C. While there she had her own radio program (a program she still has) which was broadcast over K.S.U.B. This did not prevent her from coming back to Dixie to graduate, however. She will always be remembered for her grand performance as Nanny in the Fine Arts Play, "The Little Minister", and will be noted for her ability in art. Sbe will be remembered for her help In promoting good assemblies and for her presence and willingness to serve when and wherever needed. She was a true friend to everyone and she stands as an example before all. Yes, La Verna we salute you as an alumni of Dixie and may the best of luck and success follow you wherever you may roam.
