Wallace Baddley was the head custodian and Cecil Tucker directed the Placement Bureau. Four medical doctors were employed part time to teach courses in physiology, health, bacteriology, and anatomy. Faculty salaries were lower at this point in time than they had been for more than a decade, and with the seriousness of the depression, it was necessary to cut salaries and other expenditures even more during the 1933-1934 year. On April 5, 1934, the faculty voted to reduce all faculty salaries ten percent rather than eliminate five teaching positions as had been suggested by state school superintendent C. H. Skidmore. In order to increase enrollment, faculty members were assigned to visit prospective students and encourage them to enroll at Weber. Professors Osmond, Stevenson, and Gray were members of a faculty committee organized to approach governmental officials in Ogden City and Weber County and ask the city and county to provide three or four instructors for the college for the next academic year. President Tracys program of daily assemblies did not seem to meet the needs of some of the students often as many as thirty percent of the students did not attend the assemblies. The question of daily assemblies was widely debated with the faculty and the Weber Herald defending the daily schedule. The practice of daily assemblies was gradually altered and suggestions were made to improve the quality of assemblies. On October 6, 1933, the McKinley High School of Honolulu Micks defeated the Weber Wildcat football team in Ogden by a score of 26 to 0. This was the fifth game between the two teams, and although the game was the focal point of activities there were banquets, dances, parades, and speeches which underlined the importance of the friendship and competition between the two schools. The McKinley-Weber football game and associated events brought about a debt of 850 which would plague the College for several years. Intramural activities included everything from basketball to horseshoes, and ping-pong to swimming. Teams included the Faculty, the College Inn, the Boosters, the Delta Phi fraternity, the Yeoman, the Engineers, the Education majors, the Butchers, and the Liars. The major competition in intramurals came between the freshmen and sophomore intramural teams. One event that brought campus and town support was a basketball game on February 19, 1934 between the faculty of Weber College and the faculty of the University of Utah. The game was played in Salt Lake City. The Weber faculty represented by Carl Belliston, Wallace Baddley, Walter Buss, Garnett Littlefield, Cluster Nilsson, David Trevithick, and Merlon Stevenson defeated the University faculty by a score of 86 to 63 in a game played with 20 minute quarterswith Webers Belliston scoring 35 points. The college community was kept informed by the Weber Herald which was published on alternate Mondays throughout the school year. In an article about thankfulness at Thanksgiving time, during fall quarter 1933, Helen Parmley wrote: We have a mutual frat and sorority house in our College Inn. Here one can indulge in an invigorating glass of Coca Cola and discuss the innermost secrets of campus life Think of the budding romances of the campus, and be thankful that radiators are not conveniently installed for overheating by these lovers. Think of Agfa and be thankful that he does not present vile material in assemblies when the state board of education attends. Think of our Hall of English, and be thankful that it has such sound-proof walls. The Herald announced that the Acorn would not be published for 1933-1934 because of a lack of funds. Weber College debaters were granted membership in Phi Rho Pi the national debating society, and the debaters participated in debates at Austin, Texas; Independence, Kansas; and Pasadena, California. The May 9, 1934 issue of the Herald carried a lengthy article which protested the control of student government and particularly student finances by the college president and faculty. In part the article stated, As a result the college authorities have been exercising too great a control over our student government. Although their motives may be of a commendable nature, they tread on sacred ground when they tread on the ground of the student self-government. It is time that we as students tackle the whole responsibility of governing. We as students pay fifteen dollars per year to the students association. Yet the student officers exercise little control over the money. On the other hand the school authorities have actually spent the student body money and asked for it later in board of control. The vote there is a mere formality. The student body does not have any idea of how much money it really has. The officers have attempted all year to obtain a report from the school treasurer. Only delay has resulted. The article was signed by eight students -three of them student body officers - Bill Alsup, president; Earl Thomas, secretary; and Dee Bramwell, treasurer. Nothing more is reported about this issue and the next issue of the Herald announced the new student body officers for 1934-1935. The Herald also described new coach Reed Swenson as he took over the Weber football program in the fall of 1933. Upon asking to see the football equipment, He was shown one jersey, one pair of pants, and one shoe. (When he asked where the other shoe was, he was told not to be so extravagant, that there is only one punter on a football team and that he only punts with one foot.) At the first call for football the candidates who turned out were almost as poor and as few as the football equipment. Swenson moved to improve Webers football equipment, the team, and the football schedule. Ricks and Albion were dropped from the schedule and replaced by games with freshmen teams at B.Y.U., Utah, U.A.C., University of Idaho at Pocatello (U.I.S.B.), and Westminster as well as earlier opponents Snow and the Branch Aggies at Cedar City. The baccalaureate service for 1934 was held on May 27 in the Ogden Tabernacle with Dr. John Edward Carver, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church delivering the sermon, and the commencement exercises were held on June 1 at the Orpheum Theatre with Dr. Adam S. Bennion of Salt Lake City addressing the 149 graduates.
