Klappy Wew Year! Yes, a happy, new year of campus life stretches before us. New students, new officers, new campus, some new teachers, and, we hope, a new desire of students to go forward; should indicate that this year will be the best. Make the best of your 1954-55 year at Weber. You have the best opportunities to study and to learn. You have the best opportunity to meet people and have the best time of .your life. Your years at Weber will be what you make them. You can't expect to have a good time or learn a lot if you don't go after what you want. Get in and dig, and best of luck to you I I f (FlBBD Football?

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Dear Editor: Now that registration is over and Weber College is being settled into the ground by the pounding of feet down the corridors, I would like to commend the three girls who helped with the registering. For several days they patiently ironed out the flubs we freshmen made in filling out all of our little cards, and kept smiling all the while. The teachers who sat at the tables and acted as advisors did a swell job of answering the "skil-lions" of questions the freshmen asked also. This freshman appreciated the help. Thanks! Marcella Whaley. Dear Editor: It has often been said that a student body is judged by its campus. Weber, then, should have one of the top schools in the state. However, has anyone taken a look at the lounge after lunch lately? Milk cartons, sandwich wrappers, and potato chips are strewn from one end to the other. With all the new faciliites we have we should at least be able to keep it clean. Sharon Larison. Let's Yell For Weber ! !

Public for Sophs, I mean. They gave we poor frosh those little yellow death warrants for stepping on the grass that wasn't there, for forgetting the hymn we'd never heard, and any other violation their angelic imaginations could dream up. The week wasn't all terrorizing. I remember Monday night at the barbeque in the new stadium; how alone I felt and how stared at. Then the fun began and the imaginary spotlight we freshmen felt on us was changed to a real one on the program participants. First Surprise Our first surprise came when the master-of -ceremonies turned out to be a teacher, Larry "Funnyman" Evans, he really was, funny, I mean. The program planned by Nancy Fraser contained some very unusual entertainment.. Mark Wood gave a reading that kept us in stitches, I mean newsprint, for its duration, to which he gave no name. Original? Dick's I Physical Culture presented a dis-I play of strength and acrobatics by a few attractive men, of whom Dick Wall was in charge. One of the acrobats was trying for the Mr. Utah crown and demonstrated the modeling technique he would use. Ve-r-r-r-r-y interesting, to say the least. The Juggler Then there was a juggler, Steve Campbell. His act was unusual in that he rode one big unicycle and one small unicycle, at different times of course, and juggled various articles at the same time. It was a long program but kept our interest at all times. The line-up for food was so long that by the time I got there I was frozen, and did that hot barbeque ever feel good going down. It rained and rained, and poured and poured, until if I had become any wetter, I wouldn't be here to write this. All we who went watched the "W" burn, "sang the school song, ate slightly soggy hot dogs, and enjoyed every minute of it. Our descent was a little easier than our ascent, as it was necessary to sit, the mud did the rest. Judgment Day "Kangaroo Court" finally came as all judgment days must, and I was in there quaking with the rest of them. Each punishment seemed a little sterner than the preceding one; and throughout it all maniacal laughs poured from the throats of Judge Mark Wood, and Prosecuting Attorney Tom Alexander, while the' hardboiled jury seemed prejudiced against us. The worst punishment was given to Kay Giles and Norman Russell, ! who were convicted of exploring j the underground tunnel. And what a punishment! First, M. C. Darwin Van De Graff chopped Norman's slacks off at the knees and painted his legs a gorgeous purple and white. Kay's legs received a similar painting, but Darwin didn't chop her skirt off. They were the last and I feared no more. Who knows, with more time I might have been next. What a Game! Friday night's game was lost to Ricks, but not without a fight why, in the second quarter we chalked up 19 points, and most of the passes really clicked. After, many of the gang trooped to the "Hello Dance", to find a very unusual occurance, an overabundance of stag men; man alive, what a glorious night for the gals! As a freshman with an opportunity to speak, I wish 'to thank all the people who gave we Freshmen our first glance at the fun side of college, and helped us love it more. f , tgM mm There's Nothing It--- The First Day Lois McDonough Forty-eight, back to 75, right to 15 and it is supposed to open. Well, if at first you don't succeed, l try, try again. So you go through the process once again and still no luck. Finally after four desperate tries, a little assistance from four or five people, and you finally get the locker open. Thirty minutes later for class. (Well, it took you 10 minutes to find the right building, 5 minutes to find the class room, and 2 minutes to find one of the empty seats). Noon Comes Noon arrives and your stomach is growling for food. By the time you finally locate a sandwich stand and stand in line, it is time to dash for your 1:00 o'clock class. At the end of the day you scamper and try to locate a bus schedule. Wejl, why didn't somebody tell you the bus left 5 minutes ago and the next one would be 25 minutes from now? Oh, the Pain Forty-five minutes later you drag your weary bones to the front door of your house, go inside and sit down to relax. Night time, and your only plea is "Please, dear God, don't let the rest of the school days be like this first one." 2473 Washington Boulevard Want A Job? Don't Do This Want a job? Then by all means do NOT follow these ideas: Never go to an interview alone. This gives the impression you have no friends. The best idea is to take your best friend with you. Make yourself at home. That's what waiting rooms are for. Don't hesitate to turn on the radio, primp, or take a snooze. It's the early bird who gets the worm. If there is anything employers don't go for it's punctuality. This is one of the first strikes against you. Hey, George: When you meet the employer, use greetings like "Hi, dad", and "Hey, George." This will make him feel you like him. Do most of the talking, don't let him get a word in. Also yawn and keep changing the subject. Treat the whole thing lightly. When he asks to see that important letter of recommendation, empty the contents of your purse or pockets. You know it is tucked in there somewhere, just to find it is all. Follow these hints and it is guaranteed you'll stay in the non-working class. Anyway, good luck! 3 : . i::fr.aj:i;;ft;.vAKo-v DEAN ANDERSON Perhaps the busiest man on the campus this year will be a likeable fellow called "Andy", who also carries the more formal name of Dr. C. L. Anderson. Andy is acting as Dean of Men in the absence of Dr. Stratford, who is furthering his studies at the University of Southern California.Andy has been teaching and coaching at Weber College since 1948. Prior to his coming to Weber, he graduated from Manti High, where he letterd in football, basketball, track, tennis, and baseball. He also attended Snow College, where he received the Social Service award, and the University of Utah. In the Navy About this time World War II broke out and Andy found himself in the Navy. Following his discharge he returned to the U. of U. and taught four years while completing his Master's degree. While teaching here at Weber he continued his studies, and in 1953 he graduated from the University of Oregon with a Doctor of Education degree. Father of Four Dr. Anderson is married and has four nice girls, of whom he is very proud. Andy is also the men's intramural director, and when asked about the split campus hindering our intramurals, he replied, "Our program will be curtailed somewhat, but with cooperation we can put it over in a fine way".
