Show JOHN Q. BLAYLOCK FOUNDER'S DAY FOUNDER'S DAY was appropriately observed on January 6, 1928, with a special program, a basketball game and a dance. The program consisted primarily of a summary by Professor John Q. Blaylock of the lives and accomplishments of the eight men who began those Weber patterns that the present designers are attempting to perfect. These men, Louis Warren Shurtliff, Charles F. Middleton, Nils Christian Flygare, David McKay, Robert McQuarrie, Joseph Stanford, Louis Frederick Moench and Thomas Jordan Stevens, cannot be forgotten for their work and sacrifice in establishing and guiding the institution when success was largely overshadowed by lack of finance. The game and dance in the evening added to the events in honor of those men who, with their keen foresight and judgment, saw great possibilities in the development of Weber.

There are individual chapters in the Weber College, the U, of U., and the U. A. C. The general executive officers include a president and a representative of each of the chapters. Llewelyn C. McKay of the U. of U. served as president of the interscholastic organization for the year 1927-28. "The Friar News," published periodically, is the official organ of the Club. As this publication records the activities of the various organizations, it is very cosmopolitan in spirit. The Weber College Chapter of the Friar's Club represents a group of college men who take a prominent part in school activities. Their work in an active field of service has enabled them to enter college well equipped for leadership. |
