Beautiful Stadium Graces Campus BY P. V. CARDON, '09 Chairman Athletic Council

U. A. C. has a stadium-a beautiful stadium, possessing character and imposing dignity, and yet, withal, displaying a remarkably high degree of utility. In this stadium, through the years to come, Aggies shall witness thrilling gridiron battles, numerous stirring races, many pagean ts and an untold number of other activities ; but no game, nor meet nor dramatic event is likely to endure longer in the minds of those fortunate beings who see these things than the beauty of the place itself. Merely to feel yourself within the satisfying embrace of this gigantic horseshoe, which seems to hold you almost as if it were magnetized, is worth all of the time and trouble entailed in even a long journey back to the campus of your Alma Mater. The first stadium to be constructed in the lntermountain region, this one stands today a fitting, lasting memoral to the leadership of the Utah Agricultural College, and to the foresight and helpful support of the many friends of this Institution. Completed in a year, without cost to the College, the stadium is now at the disposal of this school; and ultimately, through a favorable contract with the Logan business men constituting the U. A. C. Building Associa- tion, the beatftiful structure will become College property. The city of Logan also must be remembered as having been magnanimous in contributing the site on which the stadium has 1 (Continued on Last Page. ) I Page 2 THE U. A. C. ALUMNI QUARTERLY U. A. C.
