Show Students Enjoy u Annual Hike r I Providence and Logan Canyons Inspected By Mountain' Climbers and Horseback Groups. Election of the Student Body Officers Never was there & more nearly Ideal day for a mountain climbing hike than Friday May 8. The weather man who haa been grumbling, flashing I and rohrlngftfor the past few days ueson good behavior and was willing that the planned trip work out as successful as the plans had anticipated. antici-pated. The majority of the B. Y, students were out buzzing around about as early as the sun. The horse-tuck horse-tuck riders and the high climbers had planned to .start at 8 o'clock, and. It wasn't many minutes after that until they were on their way. It Is surprising surpris-ing how ma'ny horses and riders had been collected for tho horseback group. Over fifty of these riders headed for Logam canyon and about half that number for Providence can-, yon. Tho Logan canyon group represented represent-ed a Jolly bunch. They met nt the collego at eight. Some of them were there before trying out Uio paces of their horses. Dy half past eight over; Uenty-nve of th-'p group were well oo their wayj and picking up others, as they went along. The roads woro pretty good, and the riders rodo.. Somo of the more ambitious rode far into the canyon, to the forks and, t beyond. Others camped sooner, lunch-C lunch-C sunned, visited, viewed and rested. ' Thoso going up Providence canyon had fj much harder and more rugged trip. The roads wero not so mod-, era. Much of tho wny tho riders had IV to tako tboTndlan Ale, dodgo the ffl-lbushes, and watch out for tho slip-J slip-J v Vine and sliding of their ponies. Be-I Be-I fore they reached tho height of tholr I ambition they, waded their horses I through tho snow drift, cllmbod a I per.,k and seeing that further prog-(I prog-(I ress was blocked by snowsheds too I deep for wading, they lunched, rested rest-ed visited caves, and in general wearied wear-ied their bodies farther. Probably the most remarkable trip was that made by the high climbers accompanied by Professors Dalnos, Kemp, and Norton. More promptly than any other group were they on their way and probably later and louder In the 'evening were their cheers and rab-rahs hoard as they msjrched In tho moonlight. Soventy-two Soventy-two of these kept faithfully on until they had climbed not only Llttte Bauldy, but Big Bauldy, also coming down by why of Provldenco Canyon Just about 'all In. Tho nlno o'clock group did somo Pretty strenuous climbing too, some of them, at least. Whllo they did not try. tho long distance walk, they took probably Bteopcr climbs than any of tho others. They located around Provldonco canyon, and climbed climb-ed to tho cltfts on those mountains, After somo delay, because of misunderstanding mis-understanding about tho location of tho eating placo, over four hundred, high climbers, strollors, low climbers, . hnrsebujckmen, enjoyed tho supper In jjf Uio roughing It stylo, Victuals woro (KpJlcd with pocket knives, served tsfrom boxes and boards and eiiten with la relish only supplied by roal "hung- cr. Kappa-nu had provided, boxed R and arranged tho eats so thoroughly u that but very little troublo wus given to the serving. Four hundred people wero never more plentifully cr oxpl- dltlously fed. Tho meat furnished by tho boys was delicious. It was while the crowd waited for the car that tho moon part came In. All could' see his great round f&co come peeping over the tall mountains looking Killer because tho climbers wero so near and, too, becaiiso tho memory of so many stops was still vivid. Tho students who planted tho Crimson flag on Big Bauldy, feel the discovery and possession as dearly as any of tho explorers Columbus, Perry, Cook, and Teddy not excepted. Tho election went oft yestorday with a boom. The officers had been so carefully nominated In tho convention conven-tion that but llttlo opposition . was felt. Not un offlcor was elected who did not get ut least al two-third majority. ma-jority.
