Show VOLUME IV Annual Pilgrimage Will Be Made By NUMBER. 10 TUESDAY, MARCH 1, 1955 Chapter Future Homemakers Install New Officers Basketball Session For Dixie College Rebels to Mexico City With Even Loss and Win College 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.

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.
