Show cAlumniTHE UTAH ALUMNUSDOUGLAS O. WOODRUFFSecretary of the Alumni Associationbeing constanly made to keep this list of the former students properly catalogued as to home addresses, and also locating many former students whose addresses are missing. This huge task is a never ending one, constantly requiring considerable clerical work. The Homecoming celebration conducted last fall at the time of the Boulder-Utah game, was under the auspices of the Alumni Association. At this time the huge new stadium was dedicated, and fittingly so, by President Hart of the Alumni Association. In an impressive speech President Hart very appropriately dedicated Utah's largest and best athletic field "to the fostering of high ideals, to the development of fine, strong young manhood and to the perpetuation and glorification of clean sportsmanship." At this time there were perhaps moreformer students on the University campus, than at any time before or since.The Alumni Association also fosters annually upwards of ten class reunions at Commencement time, bringing back to the campus scores of former students of classes from one to fifty years old.The past year has been one of progress for the Association and will close with the ground breaking ceremony of the Union Building on Commencement Day. The year will thus end with a definite accomplishment at hand, with the promise of a more active year in the offing, to see in the near future a completed Union Building, a tribute to the loyalty and devotion of students and former students of the University of Utah.Page 47 |
