The Beetdigger A PRINTED RECORD OFUtah's Centennial Year-1947 AT JORDAN HIGH SCHOOL SANDY, UTAH

\"This Is the Place\"-our main building.

Foreword Although we realize that probably every school in Utah willdo the same thing, we feel that we must take advantage of an oppor--tunity that will not come again in our lifetime. Therefore, we are adding our bit to the statewide celebrationof the one.-hundredth anniversary of the arriving of the first settlersin our valley, by choosing as our theme - Utah Pioneers. We present to you this Centennial Edition, hoping that in ityou will find something to bring back pleasant memories of a yearwell spent. We park our cars here behind our gymnasium.

Dedication To those courageous and clear--sighted ancestors of ours, whorefused to be dismayed or defeated by homesickness or by hunger,by heartbreaking toil or by misery and death, and who, even as theystruggled for survival in an arid and alien land, planted the schoolhouse in the desert so that their children and their children,s childrenshould not grow up in darkness and confusion, we dedicate this book,published in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and forty--seven. In our administration building our board, superintendent, and advisory staff plan for our future.

Vocational students spend many hours in our shops.

Decoration above main entrance.Mountains, serene and maiestic, rise in our back yard.

This is the way we come and go in 1947. Styles in cars and clothes have changed.

Jimmie experiments with montage.Our parents thought thesebusses were fihe last word.

Supt. Arthur E. Peterson Superintendent Peterson and his staff efficiently direct the operation of the schools of the twelve ad-- joining towns, which comprise one of the first con-- solidated rural schools in the United States. From the six junior high schools in these communities we draw our enrollment. This is a far cry from the seventy--three eager pioneers from Sandy and the surrounding towns who met in 1908 in the Central School in Sandy and formed the nucleus from which Jordan High School grew. This brave beginning consisted of three dingy rooms, a very limited curriculum, three teachers, and three or four horse.-drawn antiquated wagons. Now we boast forty--two teachers, several well-- equipped buildings, a welHighted field for night football, a varied course of study, and modern busses to carry us back and forth. We feel that our board and our superintendent have our interests at heart. The Board of Education Meets.Seated: Horace T. Godfrey, president, Union; Rex T. Tripp, Bingham; F. A. Orton, Sandy; Arthur E. Peterson, Sandy.Standing: W. Cyrus Vawdrey, vice-president, Draper; C. R. Nelson, building engineer, Sandy; S. A. Rasmussen, clerk,Sandy; Orlon Newbold, South Jordan; Reed H: Bedstead, assistant superintendent, Midvale.

Principal 0. D. Ballard stepsfrom his new Studebaker tobegin another busy day. The year of 1946-47 has been an eventful one for Jordan High School. An ever- growing student body reached a peak enrollment of 1,104, the second highest in history. Next year,s promise of 1, 145 students will, if fulfilled, set an all-time high for attendance. The growth in variety and breadth of educational offering has kept pace with the gr wth in numbers. Jordan High now presents eighty-four separate courses for students' consideration. The faculty and student body have collaborated in the expansion of the activity program in extracurricular, club and class fields until every student can find some op- portunity to exercise and develop his special talents or particular interests. Jordan is particularly happy with its new Parent-Teachers' Association, which united with the students in staging the annual Visiting Day. The two groups teamed in present- ing a lyceum program of five numbers in the high school auditorium. Two of these num- b r were furnished by the students- the school opera and the Dramatic Clubs' play. For the faculty I take this means of thanking the student body for its excellent co-- operation in making this a pleasant and successful year. The yearbook editors and staff have earned our gratitude for preserving this year's association and activities for us in this most valuable book. 0. D. BALLARD.
