Maurice Abravanel is being honored today by Southern Utah State College for unusual and significant contribution to the citizenry of Utah and specifically to the area that comprises the community of this college. He has dedicated 27 years to the building of a symphony orchestra which, in man ·s great art treasures, ranks in a primary position. The orchestra Maurice Abravanel has brought to international prominence has been the instrument by which all of us have been enriched and fulfilled. Mr. Abravanel has been honored for his great artistry in every comer of the world. He has been awarded three Honorary Doctorates, and received the Liberty Bell Award, among others. For his internationally acclaimed recordings of the music of Mahler, Mr. Abravanel received honorary membership in the International Gustav Mahler Society as well as the Mahler Award of the Bruckner Society. Nationally, he serves as a member of the National Council for the Arts to which he was appointed by President Nixon, and he has been for many years on the Board of Directors of the American Symphony Orchestra League. In 1971 , he received Columbia University's Alice M. Ditson Conductor's Award for making the most significatnt contribution to the cause of contemporary American music. Mr. Abravanel rightfully has been described by a number of music critics as the last of a waning breed of conductors who care more about the music than about themselves. Harold Schonberg of the New York Timt!s concluded: " Maurice Abravanel is obviously a superior conductor." An American citizen of Spanish-Portuguese ancestry, Maurice Abravanel was born in Solonika, Greece, and was reared in Lausanne, Switzerland, where he first conducted at the age of 16. He studied in Berlin with Kurt Weill and conducted at the Berlin State Opera. In 1932, he made his Paris debut as a symphony conductor. He was also guest conductor of the Paris National Opera and musical director of the Balanchine Ballet Company. A three-month engagement in Australia was extended to two years, during which time Mr. Abravanel conducted first performances in Australia of many works, both in opera and concert. When the Metropolitan Opera imported Mr. Abravanel in 1936, he was the youngest conductor ever engaged there. After two years at the Opera, he left to conduct several works of Kurt Weill, meanwhile conducting many leading orchestras as well as the Chicago Civic Opera, the Mexico National Opera, and a season of concerts in Sydney, Australia. In 1947, the year he was appointed to the Utah Symphony Orchestra, he was married to Lucy Carasso who had two sons by a previous marriage and whom Mr. Abravanel considers his own. Many young artists hove received encouragement from the "Maestro." It was he who began the Young Artists Concerts over twenty years ago and they still are a driving force in enticing young people to work at their art. Many have excelled in the world of music because of his devotion to their cause. Not many of those active in the music circles of Utah could have guessed that Maurice Abravanel would remain in Utah for all these years and be content to live out his years among us. He honors our whole state by so doing. No one has surpassed his contribution to our general cultural scene. And so it is with deep feelings of loyalty and indebtedness to this man we call one of our own that we recognize his contributions to our culture. Not only as artist, he is also recognized for preservation of the qualities that we call "man at his best" . Qualities of the spirit are increasingly difficult to preserve and it is heroic efforts of men such as Maestro Abrovanel "who care more about music than themselves" that help us to preserve them. Therefore, in honoring Maurice Abravanel, we honor ourselves. In recognizing his qualities and contributions, we recognize in ourse lves the deep desire to serve man at his best: whe n he is at the job of being human. Honorary Degree Hazen Jelty Cooley

Son of Marcus Robert and Mory J. Cooley, Hazen Jelty Cooley was born Moy 12, 1904, in Smithfield, Utah, and grew up in his parents' home in Newton, Utah, where he attended elementary school. he went to high school at the Brigham Young College in Logan, Utah, graduating in 1922. Mr. Cooley graduated from Utah State Agricultural College with a Bachelor of Science degree in 1927. During his undergraduate years, he was a member of Phi Koppa Phi and was elected to the honorary business fraternity, Alpha Koppa Psi. Two years prior to his graduation, in December 1925, he become on accountant for Utah State Agricultural College, o position which he held until October, 1928, when he moved to Cedar City, Utah, to become the first secretory-treasurer of the Branch Agricultural College. He a lso served as registrar and taught accounting, business management, business low, shorthand, business correspondence, and business finance. The following year, on June 6, 1929, he married Phyll is Johnson. The Cooleys have three children: Diane (Mrs. Lawrence Ashdown), Wayne J., a nd Bonito (Mrs. Wallace Turnbough), and seven grondch ildren. Mr. Cooley attended Stanford University d uring the years 1932-33 and 1939-40, receiving his Master of Business Administration degree from that university in 1940. When the B.A.C. become the College of Southern Utah in 1953, Dr. Daryl Chose, then director, made Mr. Cooley secretary-treasurer. In' 1970, ofter the school hod been renamed Southern Utah State College, he was given the title of controller and treasurer, which position he held until his retirement in 1973. Because of his teaching assignments and his additional training at Stanford, Mr. Cooley was given the academic rank of instructor in 1933. He was advanced to the rank of assistant professor in 1940, associate professor in 1947 and professor in 1953. With Roy L. Ho Iversen and A. W. Stephenson, Mr. Cooley was instrumental in getting on air cadet training program at the Branch Agricultural College during World War II to train pilots and crew members for the military. This program provided a much needed boost to the enrollment of the college at that time, and it was a valuable contribution to the country's war effort. Later, working with Congressman Walte r K. Granger, then a member of the Armed Forces Committee, Mr. Cooley was able to get the first A.F.R.0 .T.C. program on campus. Mr. Cooley twice served as acting director of the college. He was instrumental in obtaining financial support required to build the first campus dormitories and gave highly professional counsel and dedicated service, far beyond the call of duty, in supporting the administration and faculty in maintaining the fiscal integrity of the college. He has always been highly respected by governors, legislators and members of governing boards with whom he worked. He served a s a member of the Library Development Foundation, a voluntary citizens ' organization soliciting funds for the college library in order to bring it up to American Library Association standards. Mr. Cooley has not confined his activities to the campus alone, however. He has been active in community affairs, having been o member, secretary and chairman of the Music Arts Committee, secretory and chairman of the Art exhibit Committee, secretary of the Iron County Red Cross, and o member of the Iron County Postwar Planning Committee. He has also been a member of the City Library Boord for many years, president of the Cedar City Coordinating Council, o member of the Cedar City Chamber of Commerce, and o member of the Southern Utah Foundation of which he has been a director for several terms and is now treasurer. An active member of the Church o.f Jesus Christ of Lotter-Day Saints, Mr. Cooley has been a ward clerk, both counselor and superintendent in the Su nday School, and on instructor of both the Elders and the High Priests quorums. A lover of art and music, Mr. Cooley hos done much to fo~er these arts both o n the campus and in the community, not only through his work with the Music Arts and Art exhibit Committees and the Southern Utah Foundation, but also by his friendship with and encouragement of artists such as Mary L. Bastow and musicians SV

Gustive Olof Larson, a son of Lars A. and Hannah Olson Larson, was born August 18, 1897, in Holladay, Utah.
