Clyde* The climate of Utah is character­ ized by wet and dry seasons. The wet season corresponds to our winter and the dry season to our summer. Precipitation occurs during the sum­ mer but is usually small in amount and not sufficient to supply the moisture requirement for agricultural crops. Most of the precipitation oc­ curs during the winter season and of this the larger part falls in form of snow. This snow accumulates on the high watersheds and forms the principal source of the runoff of the many streams which supply water for irrigation, municipal, power and in­ dustrial purposes. Precipitation varies with elevation but not according to any fixed law. On the Logan River watershed, for example, one year the increase in precipitation with elevation was 1 1h inches of water per one thousand feet, whereas in the succeeding sea­ son the increase was 13 inches per thousand feet of elevation. Therefore, \Vater in snow storage is Utah's "\Vltite Gold".

With the costume on hand and the gala Homecoming game drawing near, Councilman Vern Eyre hunted desperately for a couple of willing students to fill out the bull. No vol­ unteers! With only one day left until the big game, he grabbed a couple of innocent but eager fresh­ men in the halls and shanghied tht:m into the bull. Bob Sorensen, son ot Prof. A. N. :Sorensen '37 H and Walt elti, son of Prof. Walter Welti, '37 H, were the victims. A big buildup was given before game time and ve.·y spectator and student alikE: were anxiously waiting to see "Sir­ loin." "Sirloin" appea,red. And he trampled the Colorado ram in the dust. He won the love of everyone and was given to the Athletic Coun­ cil to accompany the team where­ ever they went. "Sirloin" carried on in great shape the rest of the season. After decisive­ ly beating the Colorado Ram he next wiped out Montana U to the tune of 27-7. The Cowboy from Wyoming was no match for "Sirloin" as was the Indian from Utah and the Pioneer from Denver. "Sirloin's" only defeat came at the hands of the San Jose Spartans in the Raisin Bowl at Fresno, California. Experts say that this was due to too much New Year's eve. The hay in Fresno was bad. Win, lose, or draw, "Sirloin" is here to stay and will go on travel­ ing with the team a nd cavorting on the field during the game.
