At first it was held open for seniors, but since Monday morning it has been open to juniors, too. Geology is designed to give a base for further study and a good understanding of local structures of the earth. This should prove to be a very interesting course, realizing that we live in one of the worlds best geology laboratories. Among other things, the course will include a study of volcanoes, which of course, will give a chance not only for classroom study, but for field study, too. The reason the course is being taught at three oclock is that it will be possible and practical to go out and look at the formations we have at hand. This course is to be taught by Mr. McConkie, and should be one well worth anyones time and effort. College Band Presents Concert for Tour Funds The Dixie college band presented a band concert Thursday, February 17, in the college auditorium. The band played a wide and interas esting variety of numbers suchwho marches, suites, overtures. All attended said that it was extremely enjoyable and worthwhile. Proceeds from the concert will be used for a tour to surrounding communities. Ends For Dixie College Rebels With Even Loss and Win Spanish Club Mexico City here we come! This is the battle cry of the Spanish club at Dixie college for their annual trip to Mexico. In order to make this cry come true, the club is endeavoring to raise $300 more than in previous years. They are raising this money by selling pies and cakes at ball games, selling candy at noon hour and sponsoring two dances. One dance is being held in Hurricane, March 18 and the other in St. George in the recreation hall on March 25. These dances will be different than the other school dances held this year, in that these dances will have a Spanish theme. There will be a Spanish floor show and a pinata with gifts. Annually the Spanish club goes to Mexico in order to actually see what they have studied and to put j ;l-- TUESDAY, MARCH Be Made to Mexico City 7. P-- hue The Dixie college Rebels brought their basketball season to an end last week when they split a road trip to Ephraim and Price, losing to Snow, and winning over Carbon. These two games give the Rebels a final season record of 7 wins against the same number of losses, the fifth place in the final ICAC standings. C.S.U., Weber, and Ricks wound up tied for first with Boise fourth, and Dixie fifth, followed by Westminister, Carbon, and Snow. The game on Friday with Snow was a close, battle all the way with Snow finally winning by a 73 to 67 score. At half time, Snow held a slim 32 to 31 lead, and with one minute left in the game, it was knotted at 67 to 67. A last minute spurt by Snow gave them a 73 to 67 victory as the Rebels failed to score. Bryant Solomon led the scoring for Dixie in this game with 24 points, followed by 23 for Scott Graff. Gary Graff, Miles, LeBaron, Lytle and Meecham cornered the remaining 20 points for Dixie.
