IN THE FOOTSTEPS

OF TIME

-ARTHUR E. PETERSON, Superintendent of Schools Footsteps here and footsteps the1路e, as we r:roceed in time, soon bring into reality the visions we have had of the future. The doors between the visions of yesteryear and the realities of today or the future, are not so forbidding or intangible as to bocome unexplained or expr ssionless, not I'IS long as there is a lastingness to love and to memory. A love and a memory of an earthly emblem, in e~sonce, becomes !]~during and Lmalterable when tha1路 emblem through its inherent worth merits a devot1on worthy of the h1ghest expression. Students of the Jordan High School who have been able to bring into reality their visions rhrough the influence of rhe school. hold Jordan as th I路 emblem which will endure foreVCI' in their memories. From this devotion throughout time, has come the adamant strength of the school. To the graduates of this year, Jordan will become more than a stone. It will become a memorial of the impressionable age of happy the world of work and service. It will be a symbol of res pod and and who attempted to live its teachings. For its influence for good i1 everlasting strength.

mere school or youth struggling honor for those will be carried

a srruc1ure of for a place in who achieved forward as an

The I 950 Year Book seeks not only to honor the graduates of the school this year, but to re vere the memory and spirit of the friends and classmates who accompani&d them in the paths of life and in the foosteps of time.

PRINCIPAL This is the forty-second year since Jordan High School came into being at Midvale in the basement of the old East Jordan Church. Since that time thousonds of her sons and daughters have passed through her hallowed corridors, sat in her classrooms, worked in her shops. The echo of their footsteps still lingers with us. Some came hesitant and unwilling; their footsteps were uncertain, wavering. Some came gladly; their footsteps were buoyant and light. Some entered with serious mien and walked firmly and purposefully to I heir chosen goals. Ali -in-all these forerunners of ours have established here a I radii ion for worth while achievement that is a direct challenge to each of the eleven hundred that form this year's student body. Our object should be not just to reach the standards of other years , but to aim a little higher , do a little better than any group that has gone before. Then when our footsteps join with the echoes they left, they will not strike a discordant note, but rather enhan ce the sacred harmony.

STUDENT BODY OFFICERS direct the steps of their fellow students.

President Sherman Crump, who comes from Sandy, led the siudent body through a successful year with his eagerness to make everybody happy.

Delfa Hand from Draper, as vice president, won the respect of everyone by her gracious manner, her genuine ability, and her downright hard work.

Twent y


These four capable officers of the student body worked together in harmony to complete a year unforgettable, a year of untrammeled enthusiasm and success.

Ramona Day, historian , also hailing from Draper, enthusiastically saw that this year went down in history.

Secretary Carol Miner, w it~ her genial manner and her friendly smile, handled her job in a way that won her a host of fr iends. Riverton is her home ground.

At the right路 in the picture is LaMar Sanders, who has been fhe enthusiastic president of the sophomore class. At his right is his very oble vice presi dent, Leah Jenkins. Facing him across the table stands Connie Walker, who has made a very efficient secretary. Among the many worihy efforts of the sophomore class this year, has been the sidestepping of the senior and junior boys in the Sopho more Hall.

Pep Club The pep club in their gray blouses and maroon jumpers looked very chic. These eighty-three girls are among the finest in the school and have the best scholastic records; everyone must have at least a B plus average. Their initiation day was hilarious. The junior Charlonians, in some of the most elaborate and novel costumes ever seen at Jordan, kept the senior Charlonians in stitches as they crawled, hopped, or skipped to classes. Following the ini tiation the tired juniors took t he oath at t he Candle-Light service and were admitted as members of the club. The Charlonians, under the leadership of President 1/a Wright, Secretary Merle Alvey, and Historian Charlene Lind, have been very active in carrying out their ideals-"T o promote scholar ship, leaders hip, spor tsmanship, fellowship and pep ." They had a very industrious year. They bought gifts for orphans at Christ路 mas; they planned the Charlonian Ball to which they invited the Charlonian alumni and the athletes as guests; they marched at the home games; they ushered at the basketball games; they took part in all Jordan's activities. The advisers are Lucille Tuttl e, Oralio Rawson, and Ruth Bowers.

FFA are Jordan 's f uture farmers These young fellows, who have chosen agriculture as their life's vocation, have as their primary aims the development of agriculture leadership, cooperation, citizenship, and patriotism. As usual they have had a very worthwhile year. Most of t he boys have completed one project, some two, and some even three, and ninety four percent of these own their own projects. Under the able guidance of Mr. Soulier and Mr. Budge, they have completed all together 5 10 f arm improvement pro jects and 668 better f arm practices. They added one more purebred dairy calf chain to their chapter. They had four state farmers, three highest crop judges in the slate, and the hig h est dairy judges. Th eir co operative w s third in the state. One of their boys won $100 for being the outstanding boy in the station farm mechanics. Another won the Union Pacific Carl Raymond Gray scholarship award. All in all, they have cer tainly been a credit to l he school and should feel proud of I heir year's work.

The first game saw the sophs on the top of a 14-6 score over Springville. Then, after putting up a great struggle and with some bad luck, they lost the rest of their games-to Granite 7-0, to East 6-0, to Davis 13-0, to West 34-7, and to South 12-0.

YEARBOOK CARNIVAL New this year

Janet Weichert was chosen Miss Jordan of the Camival.

CARNIVAL A SUCCESS Hot dogs, pop, candy, and fun galore were everywhere at a new and hilarious carnival. This year in order to do away with so many ad pages, the Beetdigger held a carnival on November II, each club having I he responsi bility of sponsoring a booth. There were pie th rowing, fishing, bowling, dunking, fortune -telling, cake walking, and other original ideas in exciting booths. The refreshmenr booth , sponsored by the Riding Club, won a $5.00 prize for having the most novel idea for decorating. All the Wild Wesr booth lacked was an aclive horse. At about ten the booths closed and everyone went up to the big gym for a traffic dance, given by the senior class as their contribution. Between dances there were turkeys, chocolates , nd a toaster raffled oH. Last, bul not least, was !he crowning of Mr. and Miss Jord n. Delfa Hand, the advertising man ger, was head of the affair; and so populor il was that the Carnival will probably be one of the big events of each year. Bill Madsen was given the title of Mr. Jordan to reign over the gala affair. On e hundred sixt ee n

FADS AND

Fads and fancies and kids in their teens Just go together like pork and beans. In the early fall they had their fling With a yo-yo contraption on the end of a string. Full of fads and fancies are Jordan's lassesThey match their clothes with their now eye glasses. They fuss with trinkets from their hair to their toes, And they deck their person with buttons and bows. They don't comb their hair any more, they style it; They don't let it dangle way down, nor pile it. They cut it short and the curls are few; And it sometimes looks like brother's crow. Marvelous the belts that clasp their middle, And tho jingling hardware plays hoy, diddle, diddle! They ti

their scarves in a hundred ways.

Their blouse collection brings forth praise. Pegg d or flared or slit ar

their skirts ,

With colors gay as their brothers' shirts. With pockets big as a young suitcas And buttons in almost any place. When they pay their money and lake their choice, They all choose shoes by Mr. Joyce. They are neat and clean and w II put together; Their fads are cute and their fancies cl ver. -Miss Gardner


FANCIES

.....

If you think "What they're wearing" has addled the gals With their fads and their fancies, just look at their pals! Some hair style patterns of Jordan lads Are certainly fancy, and some are fads. The back-part patterns are truly pips; But the favorite seems to be short crew-clips. And the loudest shirts that you ever saw Like the flowers that bloom in the spring, tra Ia With garden posies and landscape scenes , In purples and blues and reds and greens, That swing from the shoulders wide and loose And scorn the waist and drape the caboose; And another attire from hair to shoes , In harmonious colors they sometimes choose, Is a symphony pattern as soft and grand As played by a concert-master's hand. And the trousers, too, of the stronger sex From plain grey tweeds to louder checks , From brilliant cords to just plain brown Are not just something in which to sit down. And argyle sox with rainbow hues All diamond -checked, with gum -soled shoes ; And fancy sox, maroon and gray, In high school colors bright and gay. Oh, this is tho year the dear male pals In fads and fancies top even the gals!

-L.A. G.


Pause and reflect o'er the years; Behold how swift flys the time, The gladness, the victories, and tears We cherish and hold as sublime.

These be the races we have run, The monuments we've builded. These be the laurels we have won . In memory now they're gilded.
