Dedication Usually one individual is chosen for his outstan ding achievements in the field of conservation, and the Juniper is dedicated to him. We feel, however, that the graduates of our school, as a result of their consistent and signific ant contributions to the cause ¡ of conservation, deserve recognition as a group. We, the Utah Foresters, therefore, dedicate this volume of the Juniper to our alumni.

PROF, GRANT HARRIS
This is the 25th year of instruction in forest and range management at Utah State College, It may be recalled by some of you that the creation of a department was authorized in 1927, Lyle Watts came to the campus in 1928 and started a program of instruction, Several years ago Mr, Watt's expressed surprise at the number of staff members of the school and wondered what we do to occupy our time, He had two helpers in 1928; an6 there are now eleven of us on the regular staff, Housed in the Forestry Building, in addition to the above staff, are four associated workers, namely Dr, James Mielke, Forest Pathologist, Dr, Jess Low, with the Wildlife R search Unit, and Dr, Oliver Cope and Mr, Harvey Moore in fishery research, Much more important, however, than the increase in staff members in the schoolistheprominencebeingachievedby our graduates,, After 25 years of existance it is timely that some of our graduates should move into national prominence, That is exactly what is happening as is illustrated by such as Ed Cliff of the class of 1931, now Assistant Forester of the U. S, Forest Service. Doubtless within the next few years we will see additional and similar instances of significant achievement, Graduates of the School now number 636, In keeping with the national enrollment trend in forestry schools, our enrollmentisaboutl7percentbelowlast year. From 5th place in the nation, we have dropped to 7th place as regards enrollment. It might be said, however, that if the a r med forces had not cleaned out last year's sophomore class the situation would be different, Incidentally, students are staying with us much better than last year. The net loss of students during this year has been the lowest since during the war. The Forestry Club, although smaller this year, is very active, Apparently forestry student morale is as high as ever. Doubtless no group on the campus contributes more to building and maintaining student esprit de corps. During this second year the activities of conservation week were as good as during the first. The trend seems to be est ab 1is he d and it is expected that this function will become more important and effective, Some of you may drop a tear when you learn that the elevator has been removed from the forestry building. This is in line with a major overhaul job which has been going on during the winter, The old shaft is now occupied by one big storeroom in the basement, (for Sigler's stinking fish), an overflow storeroom for the Library on the 2nd floor, a mimeograph room on the 3rd floor and new offices on the 4th and 5th floors. The "lobby" of the fores tr y building has been greatly improved by the additional space gained. Other improvements are planned for the spring and summer. Summer camp will be resumed this year, As previously indicated, last year's sophomore class walked out on us but this year we will have about 35 students, In spite of the fact that two temporary buildings were collapsed by snow in February, the camp will be run as usual, with Cal Bowen in charge, as usu a 1, Probably about eight feet of snow fell at summer camp thi s winter . 6
A significant development of the past two years has been the cooperative summer training program with the Forest Service. The majority of our freshmen, and some juniors, and in some cases even seniors are taking jobs in Region Four for the summer which provide a rather unusual and diversified program of training. Students gain three hours of college credit in addition to the training and experience and receive the usual salary. It is very likely that this program may be expanded not only in this region but possibly in other regions in years to come. The Forest N u rs er y grounds have been pushed to the limit. In fact is has be c om e necessary to expand and we are now in the process of taking over an acre or two of ground across the highway. This has already been plowed and this spring and summer a fence and irrigation system will be installed. Employment opportunities seem to be many. This is particularly true in regard to summer employment. This seems to be due to the fact that there are at least the usual number of jobs but a shortage of forestry school students for them. Apparently most of the boys who managed to get on the Civil Service register willget offers of permanent jobs. Many have been placed already. It may be of interest to relatively recent graduates that beginning next year it is very likely that the agricultural aide civil service examination will combine a subject matter examination with the mental test. We would be pleased, of course, to keep ou! enrollment up, particularly with good students. You, as an alumnus, have a fine opportunity to observe and s e 1e ct good prospects and encourage them to come with us, We will appreciate it if you will do what you can in this respect, As usual, we request you to write to us and tell us about yourself and family.

Since it was founded at the University of Washington in 1908, Xi Sigma Pi, honorary fraternity for foresters, has assumed national proportions. There are now fifteen active chapters scattered throughout the country. Lambda chapter was installed at Utah State in 1940. As its goal, Xi Sigma Pi has chosen to promote good scholarship, and to unite the future leaders of the profession in good fellowship. Lambda Chapter, at Utah State, chooses its members on the basis of scholarship and participation in school activities. Juniors, seniors, graduate students, and faculty members are eligibl e to join. The officers who pushed the activities of Xi Sigma Pi for the year 19511952 are: Min Hironaka, Forester; Ed Abbott, Associate Forester; Halley Cox, Secretary-Fiscal Agent; and Norman Hancock, Ranger. Initiation ofnew members is an important activity. Several times during the year pledges may be seen carrying a large sprig of evergreen. Bearing this symbol of their eligibility, the pledges locate each active member and collect his signature. On the night of initiation, each pledge must have a complete list of the chapter. Each ye a r Xi Sigma Pi chooses the outstandin g scholar in the Forestry School, and inscribes his name on a plaque. A similar activity is the presentation of a s ma 11 bronze boot to the outstanding forester, "The Son of Paul". At present, Utah State is honored to be national headquarters for the fraternity. National officers are: De an Lewis M. Turner, Forester: Dr. T. W. Daniel, Associate Forester (In his absence J. W. Floyd has assumed his duties); and Dr. G. H. Kelker, Secretary-Fiscal Agent. 19

In the fall of 1950, stimulated by discussion among a number of g i r 1s, and with the encouragement of the Forestry Club, it was decided to form a club for the wives of Forestry School students, It would not only provide an excellent means of getting acquainted, but the association of wives whose husbands had the s a me type of careers, would build Interest and understanding in the husband's scnool stuates as well as subsequent jobs, Also, more social life for the entire forestry school would create a bond between students and their families, and the faculty and their families, and encourage a friendlier spirit within the school, The first year of the group, under the co-chairmanship of Marion Jackson and Olga Davis, proved worthwhile and successful, In the Fall of 1951 the Foreytry Wives Group was res!IIled for the current year, with Lorraine Sedgley and Anne Fenton as Co-Chairmen and Jean McCammon taking care of the Secretary-Treasurer's duties and reporting for the Chips, By a vote early in the year, the framework of the organization was more closely knit and membership cards and regulations were established, A scrapbook was created which contains chairmans' written repons on all activities, as well as copies of all organization procedures and general data, to be used as a basis for carrying on and improving the organization in future years, The yearof 1951-52 included many and varied successful and enjoyable events, The activities which were planned for students and faculty families as well as slngle fellows had a turn out each time of approvimately 135, There were the "Chili Dinner" in November, the "Winter Pot-Luck Dinner" in February, the "Spaghetti Supper Rally" in April and the "Farewell Spring Picnic" in May, A "Couples Pany" during the Thanksgiving Holidays brought out forty of the students and faculty and their parmers for a rollicking fireside song and dance fest, A number of activities were planned exclusively for the wives, such as the first meeting of the year, the "White Elephant Pany", the Christmas Decoration and Craft meeting, the Wives Views of Summer Jobs meeting, the "Variety Card Party", and the final meeting with the speaker on "TheLivesofGovernmentAgencyWives", To keep the treasury on an even keel, the Wives held a bake sale early in the year, and a candy sale at the close of the year, In addition to carrying on their own activities, the Wives lent a helping hand now and then to the Forestry Club, Wives decorated a tree and the Forestry ~uilding Lobby, and one of the group appropriately and attractively decorated the tables for the Foresters Annual Banquet, The largest project, however, was the designing and assembling of corsages for Paul's Pany, A 11 in a 11, the year has been extremely successful and enjoyable, The Wives Group will leave a pleasant impression with the school, and the girls will have many lasting memories of wonderful times and friendships, rhristmas Tree, Lobby, Forestry Bldg, Part of the Spaghetti Supper Crew, Una Williamson, Donna Rice, at work, Jean McCammontasting, Planning the Card Party, Marilyn Abbott, Gertrude Abate, Mrs. Turner, Clare Claycomb, Small part of be Crowd-Ch!!!

For the first time since World War II the Forestry summer camp at Tony Grove remained in a state of dormancy. The fall-off in enrollment and its obvious effect on the size of the sophomore class caused a change in policy for one summer. The change did have some good results, however, for "student erosion" on B. M. Hill was at a minimum. In place of the usual summer camb, students took jobs with federal, state, and private agencies throughout the West. Some of these jobs were closely related to the subject matter at summer camp and the students received some excellent on-the-job training. There is no doubt that many members of the faculty missed their "greatoutdoor" classroom, but the sophomores had on 1y hearsay by which they could know what they missed. Whatever the opinions of students or faculty members, it is generally known that the Forestry Club missed the "uniting effect " of summer-camp life in many of its activities. This summer has already been outlinea for the new class of sophomores. Summer Camp at Tony Grove is their first scheduled event.

All of the following men kept the Forestry Club on top for the year '51 - '52. Fall Barbeque, under the direction of Bill Hart, led off the year's activities. Homecoming followed soon after. Jim Slack and his crew built the prize-winning float. Dick Baier "volunteered" to rejuvinate the club room. "The Jardine Juniper", ofwhichtheForestry Club is custodian, was cleaned up by Bob Jamieson and his committee. Just before the holidays, Bob Gara led a crew of huskies into the mountains in search of Christmas trees. The Beer Bust started off winter quarter's activities. Carl McCammon organized the event. Decorations for Open House were planned and constructed by Clyde Ashcroft. During Winter Carnival Week, Jim Foster created a breathing image of the "Beeg Wan" in snow. Foresters' Week, April 7 to 12, highlighted the year's activities. Dave Lodzinski planned noon activities and collected participants for the various events. Underground activities were organized by Gene Wunderlich. John Neuhold wrote and directed the ass em b 1y. Through the efforts of Dave Clemens, the Foresters recaptured the Brown Jug. Pres Tay 1or conducted the "Daughter of Paul" election, and successfully hid the queen from the Engineers. The banquet attracted a record crowd - under the supervision of Carl Rice, Wayne Wadsworth wrote "finis" to the big week with Paul's Party. P u b 1i c it y for the week was handled by Phil Ogden. Conservation Week ran concurrently with Foresters' Week. Bill Hart spent the year planning the Week, and his efforts bore fruit. 26

Mel Lantz was the "Big Chief" as editor of the Foresters' weekly publication. Mort Brann was the sports editor for the '51 - '52 Chips. In his column, Mort reported the results of intramural contests and solicited athletes for future sports. ChieffeaturemanwasJohnNeuhold. "Big John" wrote articles on everything from deer hunting to the ancestry of our "has been" elevator shaft. Cartoons with the Taylor-twist pointed out the humor in club activities. "Pres" also drew some appropriate banners. "Slivers from the Wives" was a column featuring the Wives Group's activities. Jean McCammon and Lorraine Se d g 1e y faithfully contributed articles in this department. Dr. Mi e 1 k e was the chief faculty contributor. "Jim" regularly added faculty news, fillers, and humor to the weeks issue. Other faculty members also contributed information. Many others assisted with the Chips. Stacey Gebhards and Dick Parker wrote articles. Dave Lodz ins k i was a combination reporter, cartoonist, and general flunky. Jim Krygier reported club projects and gave invaluable advice. The club was kept informed of the progress of the Conservation Week Committee by chairman Bill Hart. Lorraine Sedgley typed the stencils each week. She also gave advice and was sort of a behind-the-scenes assistant editor. Faculty advisor of the Chips was Dr. L. A. Stoddart. in his absence, Dr. Sigler censored the paper. 27

Mel Lantz was the "Big Chief" as editor of the Foresters' weekly publication. Mort Brann was the sports editor for the '51 - '52 Chips. In his column, Mort reported the results of intramural contests and solicited athletes for future sports. Chief feature man wasJohnNeuhold. "Big John" wrote articles on everything from deer hunting to the ancestry of our "has been" elevator shaft. Cartoons with the Taylor-twist pointed out the humor in club activities. "Pres" also drew some appropriate banners. "S 1iv er s from the Wives" was a column featuring the Wives Group's activities. Jean McCammon and Lorraine Se d g 1 e y faithfully contributed articles in this department. Dr. Mielke was the chief faculty contributor. "Jim" regularly added faculty news, fillers, and humor to the weeks issue. Other faculty members also contributed information. Many others assisted with the Chips. Stacey Gebhards and Dick Parker wrote articles. Dave Lodz ins k i was a combination reporter, cartoonist, and general flunky. Jim Krygier reported club projects and gave invaluable advice. The club was kept informed of the progress of the Conservation Week Committee by chairman Bill Hart. Lorraine Sedgley typed the stencils each week. She also gave advice and was sort of a behind-the-scenes assistant editor. Faculty advisor of the Chips was Dr. L. A. Stoddart. in his absence, Dr. Sigler censored the paper. 27
!HTltA Students lacking the time or ability to compete in varsity sports turn to the intramural program for recreation and exercise. Listed on the 'mural calender this year were ten sports, seasonal and varied. We have entered each event with two objectives in mind: first, to give every man who signed up a chance to play; and second, to win, The Department Le ague this year was "red hot ", 0 u r traditional rivals, the Engineers, and the Ag Club each had organizations double the size of the Foresters from which to draw material. ~~~\\ While the faculty failed to field a team in every event, they were dangerous in those they did enter, Several new contentants, Technology, Military, and the l'ORtSTJ:JtS Intra mu r a 1 Staff, entered the fracas during the year. First on the itinerary was touch football. Foresters in the pigskin parade were Bill Hart, John Neuhold, Mort Brann, Bud Holloway, Jim Krygier, Mel Lantz, Bob Jamieson, and John Hanson. A tricky faculty-eight upset the team in the first game, but the "profs" used ineligible players and were forced to forfeit, We lost to the Engineers by a small margin in the finals. In wrestling we claimed a second. The Ag Club placed two men in the finals and won this event. Big Bi 11 S 1ab au g h starred for the Foresters by winning the heavyweight crown. Another potential winner, Pres Taylor, was injured, and he lost in the semi-finals. Other grapplers were: Burk Jensen - 137, Ken Anderson - 157, Mel Lantz - 177, and Bud Holloway 187. In "A" basketball, once more we scored a second. Bill Hart, Elwood Crowell, Dennis Turner, Chuck Brinkpeter, Bud Holloway, Bob Jamieson, and Mort Brann composed the squad.

MURALS The faculty won this event and later, the all-campus playoff. At the close of the quarter, the Foresters were leading by a small margin, During Winter Quarter, the Forestry Club sprinted far out in front of the league, The rally in which we were shaded out of first place by the Ag Club. Clyde started at O 1-'en House, Ashcroft was appointed chairman of the decoration committee, and he and his crew adorned the Forester section with green and white, On the big night, Jerry Dahlberg won the foul-pitch event, Dick Bier scrambled up the rope, Bill Melander arm-wrestled, and Don Lewis and Elwood Crowell played box hockey, Our queen candidate, Joyce Barkle, was chosen as an attendant, as was our new Daughter of Paul, Arlene Meyer, Swimming followed Open House, Seven Forester tankers stroked off with a first in the contest, Swimmers were Bob Gara and Bill Hart - breaststroke; Stan Peterson, Bud Holloway, and Jim Krygier - freestyle; and Bob Jamieson and Mel Lantz - backstroke, Winter Carnival week opened with snowshoe races on the Quad, Jim Krygier, Mel Lantz, and Bob Jamieson ran in the long-distance race for the Club. Mel tied Reynolds of PKA for first in the event, and Bob collected a league-third, A relay snowshoe team composed of Mel Lantz, Dick Bier, Mort Brann, and BobJamieson placed first in Department League competition, Jim Foster chairmaned the snow sculptering committee, He and his staff of artists created a statue of Paul Bunyan, which won the highest rating, an excellent, Ski events were run off at Beaver Bowl. Dave Lodzinski, Pres Taylor, and Al Courtright won second, third, and fifth respective 1 y in the cross-country, Our sole contestant in the grueling downhill, Phil Ogden, copped a second, Dee Hibbert swivel-hipped down the slalom course, and a relay team composed of Taylor, Lodzinski, and Hibbert took first, When the points were tallied up, theintram u r a 1 Department recorded another first for the Foresters, B basketball was the last sport in the quarter, Hoops t er s for the Foresters were Elwood Crowell, Bill Hart, Don Lewis, Gene Wunderlich, Dennis Grassi, Bud Holloway, Mort Brann, and Warren Shaw, The soot-pit crew played five days in a row, and lost in the finals to the Intramural Staff, Several Foresters entered the stiff all-campus ping pong competition during Winter Quarter, One of these, Don Lewis, was crowned ping pong champ of Utah State, With volleyball, track, and softball still to be played, theForestryClubis 140 points ahead o f the closest contender, It looks from here like history will repeat istelf, and the boys with the green hats will make an addition to their trophy case,
The first event of the year got the club activities off to a bang-up start. Jim Slack organized and directed the event. With plenty of work and ingenuity, Jim, and his hard-working crew, brought home the prize money. That is - literally and actually, for the Student body presented the Forestry Club with a $25 check for taking first place in the club and department competition.
Big foreman was Bill Hart. He chose for his cookie - Hallie Cox; and it was a darn good choice! When Hallie dug that chunk of beefout of the coals, it was done to a turn. Although the gang was pretty well loaded with barbequed beef, baked spuds, and the trimmings, there was plenty of keen competition in the games that followed. This year, instead of staging interclass competition, the group competed by departments. It seemed to work out very well, and gave the u n d er cl ass men and their superiors a chance to mix. The Foresters rounded-up the most points for the day. They won v o 11 e y b a 11, log-chopping, and horseshoe pitching. The Wildlifers took the log-sawing and pie eating contest, and this gave them a second. The Rangers had stored away too much of that good beef, and ended up low on the totem pole; however they c!id earn a few points - in the sack race.

ACTIVITIES
The regular Christmas tree harvest was directed by Bob "Snowman" Gara. With a crew of rugged, zero-weather operators, he climbed the mountains in the Beaver Bowl Area in quest of trees. To add to the Christmas spirit an ambitious crew erected a huge, fir-bough arch over the crosswalks in the center of the quad. Many "doubting Thomases" felt that it would not st a n d o v er an hour. Snow, wind and sleet tested the structure, but nevertheless it remained up over a month.
St49 PtVetff The Forester's Annual Stag Party was held in the American Legion cabin, about a mile up Logan Canyon, A local pub, the De 1 Mar , donated a keg of brew for the affair, so there was plenty for all - at 1 east there were no com plaints from the more lively drinkers of the crew. The man who lined up and planned this affair was Carl McCammon, Sales of the $1. 00 tickets boomed and with a final res u It that a record crowd was present - over 60. Some good movies were on hand for entertainment, and of course there were more than ample refreshments, Hie I

Explosions, confusion, smoke, and an abundant supply of corn rocked the main auditorium in the Foresters' assembly. Husking all this corn was the largest crowd since last year's saga of the woods. The director of this scriptless "no cut" comedy was "Big John" Neuhold. The star of this year's "Sawmill Saga" was Nick Cozakos. Was there anything serious to this assembly? Why, certainly. Bill Hart gave a shorttalk on our Conservation Week activities at the very beginn ing. Then at the close of a hectic half hour, Pres Taylor presented the candidates for the Daughter of Paul; and Jim Krygier came out to announce the winning candidate. He announced Arlene Meyer as the "one-and-onl y." The girls who competed with her for the crown were: Bonnie Comish, Maxine Tripp, Georgia Paxton, and Anna Lou Nuttall.
On Monday the Foresters took a first and third place in pole climbin g. The flag race ended in a draw. Wednesday, the Foresters continued strong by placing first in the snowshoe race. Tobacco spitting, held on the same day, gave the Foresters a first in accuracy and the Engineers a second. The day ended when a strong Forester tug-o-war team gave the Engineers a wet bath via the fire hose. Thursday the bottom fell out of the point bucket as the Engineers took a clean sweep of log burling and canoe tipping. The Engineers continued their comeback by taking firsts and seconds in choppingandsawing. To make matters worse, theEngineer's Dean Christen sen edged Dean Turner in an exhibition chopping event. The "big push" of the noon activities was Dave Lodzinsky.

"Little Brown Jug, how I love thee, " was the Foresters theme song after this year's Brown-Jug Party. After two long years, the Foresters brought home the bacon and the "whiskey". The party was a smashing victory for the Club with seven out of the nine events chalked up on our side of the ledger. Dave Clemens did the ground work for the party. He assembled contestants, bought refreshments, and arranged for the gym. Some of the contests were: a shoe scramble; beer drinking contest- Crowell, Smith, and Schwartz rock really shined this one; a female-dressing contest between the deans - female manikin of course, and an eggblowing race. The spoils of victory were, of course, the contents of the Little Brown jug. After seconds and thirds on the Jug, we all retired to the Forestry Building for more refreshments.
Of all activities occurring during Foresters' Week, those which most often cons um e the most time are the midnight, off-the-schedule battles with the engineers. To pull the strings and organize such activity was "Chief" Gene Wunderlich. The "cold war" which we engage in most of the year with the "damn builders" usually breaks into an extremely hot one during the "Week", This year was no different and the uncooperative spirit of the engineers led to greater antagonism than usual. The recapture of Paul, the protection of our Daughter of Paul, and the capture of their Queen, have been the primary motives in this "extra" activity. For all intents and purposes the engineers have refused to bring out Paul - so he still remains in hostile hands. Our Daughter of Paul remained well hidden, and we had little luck in tracing their Queen. These so called "extra" activities may be discontinued in future years. The "agreement-breaking" engineers have, as is usual, maesured up to their high standards. 35
At least once a year Foresters dress up for their annual banquet, Somebody has to organize the affair--get a speaker, make programs, and cook the grub, This year Carl Rice took over as the "big planner" and made all the arrangements â&#x20AC;˘
The Bluebird in Logan provided the meal and set up the tables, A fine pork dinner was the big attraction, The biggest attraction of the evening however, was the main speaker--James Simon, director of the Biological Research Station at Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Mr, Simon reviewed the history of the American Wildlife management and presented some very interesting views on present policies in that field, Theregularannualawardswere given at the Banquet, Dean Turner presented the "Son of Paul" award to Gene Wunderlich, Bud Phelps, after much grimacing, awarded the "Headless Axe" to his professor, Dr, Sigler, The latter award came about as a result of a duck-hunting boner, A new and off-the-cuff award, the "headless hatchet," was given to Bud by John N euhold because of the story Bud told about his prof, The record crowd attending the affair was swelled by an unusually large number of dignitaries, and thirty delegates from the Association of Western Forestry Clubs,
Without fail, there must be a Paul's Party every year, This year was no different, "Bunyan's Hop" topped off the Forester's Week activities in "high-falutin" style, The "wheel" making things roll for the Party was Wayne Wadsworth, There was a bitter and prolonged battle before the dance to determine what the dress would be for the affair. The outcome was that the gals wore formals and the men suits, Corsages were furnished at the door with compliments of the Wives' Group, A good deal of work was involved in making the unique little, cone corsages, and the wives deserve a vote of thanks, Music was provided by Dick Beecher and his band, The dance was held at the Elite Hall in Hyrum, The latter choice amazed many, and these people were even more amazed when they learned of the success of the dance, During intermission Larry Monroe sang ballads in a style on 1 y he could sing, Wayne Wadsworth filled a emcee and presented the Daughter of Paul and the eng in e er Queen to the audience, It was agreed that the organization accumulating the most points from the noon activities, the Brown Jug Party and, or the capture of a Queen, would crown that Queen the "Queen of the Dance, " We fulfilled our bargain, An added attraction to the dance was Paul Bunyan, After much debate and argument with the engineers he appeared on the spot before intermission. This was done reluctantly by the engineers even though they agreed before the "Week" to carty out such action, Harold McElroy managed tickets and progtams, Buddy Holloway decorated the hall, and Jim Cochoran dished the refreshments,

s(J#~, 'PaÂŤt "The Son of Paul" - the Forester of Foresters - the man most likely to succeed Gene Wunderlich, Gene was born in Cheyenne, Wyoming on JulylO, 1927, In his infancy, Genewas a farm lad, He narrowly escaped death, when at the tender age of six, he contracted typhoid fever, He was rushed to a Denver, Colorado hospital, where he was cared for for two months, Gene'sschoolcareerbegan in Elko, Nevada, a year later, His family moved to Salt Lake in 1936, and then back to Elko three years later, Gene finished high school at Elko, During his prep years he collected two sports sweaters.in Basketball, a letter in track, and was elected Junior-class Prexy and Senior ve-ep, The navy stepped into Gene's life at this point, Gene swabbed every deck on this side of the Pacific for a year and five months, and then went back to the ranch, In the fall of 1947, he enrolled in the U, of Nevada, where he completed his frosh year, Then came another year on the ranch to reassemble finances - then came the A,C. The Utah Foresters know Gene as a good student, a good friend, "ladies choice, " and a good "Son of Paul",
Selection of candidates was started well in advance of Foresters' week with a total of five finalists being voted upon by the club, They were Bonnie Comish, Maxine Tripp, Arlene Meyer, Georgia Paxton and Anna Lou Nuttall, Arlene Meyer was selected as "Daughter of Paul" in one of the closest elections in years, Arlene is vice-president of Kappa Delta, ROTC sponsor and a past openhouse queen attendant along with the outgoin~ "Daughter of Paul," Joyce Barkle. A nineteen ye a r old sophomore, she is from Smithfield and is majoring in music. After receiving many presents, a gold cup and the "Traveling" trophy at the assembly, Arlene continued to stay on the campus right underthe engineers' noses, During the rest of the week she was "kept" in the vicinity of Smithfield, Amalga and Newton depending upon the circumstances, Friday, as pre-arranged with the engineers, Arlene was presented at noon-time activities along with the engineer's queen, Carol Watkins, 37
CDISEllVATlDI WEEK The Utah Foresters, realizing that their future professions involve har monious relations with all users of renewable natural resources, established Utah Conservation Week during 1951. The primar y function of this week was to focus public attention of the values of Utah's resources through statewide activities and campaigns. The administration of Utah Conservation Week was carried on by the members of the Utah Foresters in 1952, with increasing success. During the initial planning phases of the 1952 observance, committee members e v a 1u ate d the activities and results of the 1951 program. They concluded that there was a not ab 1e lack of effort expended upon private individuals operating within the state of Utah itself. To remedy this, a reorganization took place. Students majoring in the three fields of instruction within the School of Forestry, Range, and Wildlife Management were placed on subcommittees, which were charged with formulation action programs. The aim of these action programs was to place emphasis upon the progressive ideals of wise land use. After all, the adherence by the average citizen to cons er vat ion ideals is the goal which any conservation effort strives to achieve. The suggestions for action within the various divisions were presented to the advisory board composed of representatives from state and federal land administering agencies. The suggestions and encouragement received from these men were gratefully accepted, and work was immediately initiated to a cc om p 1is h as much as possible in action programs which have been carried on by the Conservation Week Committee in 1951. In the Wildlife Division, the committee planned to select the outstanding man of the year in Utah wildlife. To accomplish this, the student committee, headed by Bud Phelps, asked six prominent men in wildlife circles to pick the deserving winner. "Hack" Miller of the Deseret News chairmaned the group composed of c. J. Olsen, Regional Forester; Clarence White, President of the Utah Wildlife Federation; J. Perry Egan, Director of the Utah Fish and Game Commission; Dr. w. F. Sigler, head of the Wildlife Department at Utah State; and Mr. G. G. Sanderson, Commissioner of the Utah Fish and Game Commission. With the formal tital of the award decided upon, Mr. Harold Shubach, Salt Lake City Jeweler, was approached with the idea of creating a trophy. Mr. Shubach designed the plaque, tooled it, and donated "The Bridger Award" for presentation. As a member of the selection committee, Dr. Sigler presented the first Bridger Award at the Annual Foresters Banquet, April 10, 1952, to Clarence White, and it was indeed a popular selection. The Range Division, under the supervision of Gene Wunderlich, set
38
out to initiate a range livestock contest, with the idea of selecting a live stock op er at i on which was functioning on a sound economic basis while using the principles of wise land use. Innumerable meetings and conventions were attend e d in an effort to sound out the reactions of governmental agencies, the professional technicians, and the land owners. All of the information gleaned fr om thes e meetings has been gathered and the serious work of putting a JUsable score card together is well underway. The system of scoring will be conducted on a pyramid basis staning with five state finalists. The winner will then be selected by a committee of men representing administrators and owners, and will be awarded a huge troph y donated by the Kennecott Copper Corporati on. Much remains to be done, and the work will fall on the chairman select ed for next year, The Forestry Division, headed by Wayne Wadswonh, started the collection of material for the publication of a teacher's guide to modern conservation. Work will continue for the remainder of the year in an effort to have this publication for distribution during Conservation Week, 1953. The Conservation Week Committee awarded the Utah Foresters' Award for Meritorious Service in Conservation to Mr. James A, Ott of St. George, Utah. Mr. Ott was cited for his untiring efforts to educate the youth of the state and nation in the value of conservation. This award was announced at the annual convention of the lntermountain Section, Society of American Foresters, April 12, 1952. The coming years should see increased student activity in the Conservation Week idea, as a member oi the Association of Western Forestry Clubs,

The Forestry Club has stuck another feather of activity in its cap. Under the leadership of Jim Krygier, The Association of Western Forestry Clubs has had its first meeting since 1941. The conclave took place with Utah State as host in the Rural Arts building on the u.s.A.c. campus on April 10 and 11. Forestry clubs from Washington, Montana, California, and Idaho attended the meeting. The University of Washington sent 11 men: Montana University, one; California University, five; Idaho University, three anct Washington State, two. On the first afternoon President Madsen and Dean Turner opened the con c 1ave .with shon talks. Each organization presented a paper on their outstanding c 1u b activity. Some of the common problems encountered in club activities were discussed. The remaining time was spent discussing the type of organization the clubs wanted to make the Association. On Thursday night all de 1e gates attended the Utah Foresters Annual Banquet. On Friday morning, April 11, a six-car cavalcade was formed, and the guest delegates were taken on a tour through Logan Canyon. The journey extended to Be a r Lake. A rapid return trip was made to attend the noon ct>mpetition with the Engineers. J. Whitney Floyd, Forestry Professor, opened the afternoon session with a talk on forestry clubs--their ideals and accomplishments. Then the members assembled in the committees set up for the afternoon. The committees consisted of: one to write a constitution; one to discuss conservation week; one to discuss social matters, and ways and means: and one committee to formulate plans for a publication for the Association. The constitution passed by the member clubs and a publication was set up to be called "Slabs and Edgings." Repons were given by the other committees. A drawing was made to determine the host club for the following year. The University of Idaho pulled the winning ticket, and so will conduct the affairs of the A s soc i at ion for 1952-5 3. The meeting was adjourned with wishes for success of the newly formed Association from the chairman. Most of the delegates attended Paul's Party Friday night, and some remained for the Society of American Foresters meet on Saturday.

In the spring of 1951 twenty-four new foresters were added to the growing list of professional forestry graduates from the Utah State Agricultural College, These graduating seniors are widely scattered over the United States and are, for the most part, gainfully employed as far as we have information on them, Recently we heard from Gene Hawkes, who is with the State Tax Commission of Oregon. In close association also are Bill Bone~ and Raymond Harris, We had a letter a short time ago from Edsel Corpe who is in Southern California with the U,S, Forest Service, He reported seeing several Aggies at the recent Junior Forester Orientation Conference, Marty Craine writes from Ohio that he has turned engineer for a short period. The department faculty has been busy and has been enjoying some varied experiences and training, Dr, T, w. Daniel left Logan in September for a year's study in Austria under the sponsorship of a Fullbright Fellowship, His letters have been regularly extolling the silvicultural and management phases of the "old forests" where scientific management has had time to show results, Ted will return in September to resume his duties at the college, Dean Turner, Professors Calvin Bowen, Raymond Moore and Whitney Floyd have been pinch hitting for Ted's classes during his absence, Professor Ray Moore returned to the campus July first after spending a year at California doing graduate work, While in California, Ray did work particularly with Professor Myron Krueger, Dean Turner, Professor Bowen, Professor Moore and Professor Floyd have, consequently, been the wheel horses for the year, but have managed to get a share of outside activity, Dean Turner represented the school at the annual meeting of the Society of American Foresters at Biloxi, Mississippi, in December, Professor Cal Bowen has been given a few campus assignments which add to his load, He is now a member of the attendance and scholarship committee and the film production committee on the campus. Professor Floyd had a new summer experience when he accompanied the American Forestry Association's Trail Riders Expedition on their annual ride into the Sawtooth Wilderness Area as the Association representative, He is presently Chairman of the Association of State Foresters which will meet in Colorado in 1952, Harry Woodward, State Forester of South Dakota and of the class of 1941, is also a member of the committee. We have made a slight change of curriculum in the department this year. The old seminar course has been eliminated, and a new course in aerial map interpretation is being taught by Professor Bowen, Forest Economics and Policy has been separated, Economics has been combined with finance and is being taught by Professor Moore. Policy is now a new course called Forest History and Policy and is the pet subject of Dean Turner, During the year we made considerable improvement in the School forest, Through the excellent engineering and hard work of Cal Bowen and Ray Moore, last fall, we now have a headquarters cabin on school forest, An a er i a 1 map was made of the forest during the summer, and a complete management plan for the unit is now available, This spring Cal Bowen and Ray Moore, with nineteen juniors and seniors will make the annual senior field circuit in the Northwest, Juniors w i 11 attend because we are in the process of converting over to a "junior field trip", This year many of the events of the trip will be shot with a moving picture camera by Jamil R, Shairani, a student from Pakistan, J, Whitney Floyd
The enrollment of the Wildlife Management Department for the past winter quarter was 81 students of which 21 were doing graduate work, This is a considerable drop from the 1950 all time high of 110 undergraduates and 31 graduates, It appears that the en r o 11 men t of both undergraduates and graduate students has pretty well leveled off and that any future changes will be toward an increase rather than a decrease , The Ph, D, program is under way with two candida'les--one in fisheries and one in big game, Three applicants are being considered for next year,
44
To date 144students in Wildlife Management have received Bachelor of Science degrees. The Master of Science degrees granted for this same period was 25. . . Employment possibilities in Wildlife Management appear to be better than ever before. ThlS is probably due in part to the national improvement in the employment situation, and to an expansion in the wildlife fie Id. For the first time in the history of the school, every student graduating last year had at . . least one opportunity for employment < Students accepting employment are going into State Fish and Game Department, the Fish and Wildhfe Service, teaching, and private business. State Fish and Game Agencies in the past have hired 24 percent of the graduates. The Fish and Wildlife Service has been second with 14 percent, It is the policy of the school to encourage undergraduates to work at least one and preferably two summers for a recognized wildlife agency in order to gain field experience, Up to the present time there has been adequate temporary employment for everyone who was willing and able to accept it. The fortunate location of the Department is of interest to wildlife men throughout the country. It is possible for students to study at first hand, deer, beaver , sage grouse, pheasant, muskrat, ducks and geese, cutthroat trout and black bass, all within 20 miles of the campus. The field approach gives our students an enthusiasm hard to beat I William F. Sigler
Enrollment in range management in the 1951-52 school year is about 20 percent below last year due, we suppose, to military demands. We have fourteen graduating seniors and four will complete the master's degree. A total of forty-one students are registered in the department. Nine are registered for graduate work. Despite reduced student numbers, requests for men are even greater than normal. Both permanent and summ er jobs far exceed th e supply of men. Several fellows already have accepted places in private ranch ing, the Bureau of Land Management, and the Forest Service, Th e fa cult y this year consisted of five permenant members and seven student assistants. Stoddart, Cook, Smith, and Harris made up the Logan staff, and Max Robinson held down the Cedar City post. Cook was on full tim e research with the Experiment Station. A new research program on Halogeton was th e big interest of the year. Smith, after a surprise release from the army, was teaching and completing th e writin g of his doctorate thesis. Grant Harris continued in teaching and game-livestock research. Smith will tak e th e annual spring fi.eld trip this year with some eighteen boys, Visits to California's rang e experiment stations and Nevada's desert ranges will highlight the trip--not counting Reno and Las Vegas, of course, In lin e with what is fast becoming an annual tradition, th e U, S, A. c. range management graduates met for a reunion dinner at Boise during the annual meeting of the Range Management Society in February, There were fifty-eight students, form er students, and faculty attending this meeting! Odds are that this was the largest gathering of Utah rangers ever assembled. They were a ounch to be proud of, too, Our boys now hold jobs of real significan ce in the range world. Incidentall y, at Boise there was a contest in plant identification for college students. Twenty-one m en entered from seven western colleges. In the contest involving identification, ecology. and forage value of som e fifty species from throughout the West, Utah's three entrants placed first, second, and third I The old school isn't taking a back seat to anyone!

Hi Men, I '11 bet you want to know what has been happening here, F i rs t, our old den has been slightly remodeled. Remember that old elevator? Well, its been taken out, It seems that the elevator shaft was a fire hazard. In a way it's too bad--we've had it so long. The Forestry Club has been very active this year. As usual, no other department could stand up against us in intramural competition. We took 'em all including the Engineers. However, during Foresters' Week we didn't do so well, The Engineers re a 11y took us, It was very humiliating. The y won the log chopping, log sawing, burling, and tobacco spitting. I'll bet during your stay on the Ca]llpus this would never have happened, A project staned last year was again taken up this year, This endeavor was Utah Conservation Week, This program, as before, was very successful, The event will probably be a yearly fixture in Utah. During Foresters' Week, the Association of Western Forestry Clubs met in Logan. This organization had been dormant since 1941, We framed a constitution and discussed our mutual problems, Next year, this newly revised group will meet at the University of Idaho, As for the school work itself, it hasn't ch an g e d much, Whit Floyd still has his flat curves; Doc Kelker is still handing out formulas; and Dean Turner is still looking out for his boys. The on 1 y thing that is out of place is Doc Daniel who is studying in Austria, Well, this about covers the news from this end, Let's hear from you, Your alumni editor, Bob Gara

near Word A few years ago tradition was broken in a volume of the Juniper, A rear word was used in place of a foreword. Sometimes in arranging the material, it just seems as though the following thoughts fit in better elsewhere. That's why I've chosen this last page. An annual of this nature takes in the neighborhood of five-hundred man hours to put out--believe it or not. Naturally no one man, or even two men, could do this successfully and get passing grades. It took the cooperation and hard work of the staff and donations of effort and time from outside sources. Jim Sedgley deserves much credit. His job of photographing activities and developing, enlarging and printing was a year- long job. Innumerable hours of work were donated by Jim in this way. His wife also contributed help in ,nany ways. Another year-long job was that of Sam Alfano's. As business manager he had to send countless letters and contact many businessmen in search of adds and additional monetary sources. The financial success of this publication rested on his abilities. Preston Taylor served as artist and filled in as writer in the waning momn before deadline. His drawings cannot be skipped over lightly. Look at the cover and lead pages. It took no small amount of time to produce these. BobGara organized and worked up the alumni section with the cooperation of Wayne Cook. He also drew the seal and the pine cones you have seen . Dave Lodzinski managed the summer camp and other sections. He he lped compose several picture pages. As you know, the greatest portion of our activities occur during Foresters' Week. This means that most of the articles must be written on short notice since our deadline is only a week later. Mel Lantz helped immeasurably in this area of work. I want to thank Grant Harris for his contributions, and his aid in proofreading. "Emily" would drag me under for this, but anyway, I want to compliment myself for finishing the last box of aspirin.
