Show Uj J Courier OUTH VOL. VIIII. Activities At U. A.jC: Thursday the men at the college who had applied for entrance to the officers reserve camp received word that all had been accepted. This came as good news to the boys, more than twenty , in number, as some were very much worried as to the outcome of the decision at headquarters. From thi3 date on a large number of the boys at the school will be wearing the soldier uniforms in their drill work. The U. S. Government paid more than half the cost of the uniforms, making it an easy matter for the students to supply themselves. These would-b- e soldiers not only to the chance learn the various have manouvers in marching, but they learn how to handle the rifle. They are seen daily parading in the gymnasium and on the campus, each man paying strict attention to the business of a soldier. Students who have left the U. A. C. and gone to the front have found the training they received very valuable and have thus made greater advancement. The winter course at the U. A. C. started Monday Dec. 3, with perhaps the largest attendance rerecord in the history of the school. Men from 55 years old down to boys of 18 years are included in the additional roll. All parts of the state of Utah and Southern Idaho are represented. Many new courses have been added; one, a couvse in the study and handling of a gasoline tractor, is drawing a great number daily More than 900 are registered at the school at the present time. In as much as the Aggies laic claim to the. Rocky Mountain Championship in football, there is much interest being exhibited in basketball and Coach Jensen expects to give other College teams of the state a hard run for first place. More than 40 candidates are out every night for practice and all expect to make the team. Present prospects point to the biggest and most successful Roundup the A. C. has witnessed since thi3 phase of work was orgcnized. Representaaives from every county in the state are expected to attend Special instructions in lines tha will be most useful to the farmer in these times are being arranged for. Why not every farmer in the state who has the means take off a couple of weeks; let someone else attend the regular activities of the farm life and come to the U. A. C. and enjoy some college spirit. Theyll look back some day and speak of that short period as their college days. NO. 4 Hyram Cache County, Utah, Friday, Dec. 21, 1917.
