this time Weber was teaching several classes for Hill Field. For the next three years, 1942-1945, enrollment was down. Young men were being called into the service, and many girls were working at Hill Field Air Base, 2nd Street Quartermaster Depot, Naval Supply Depot in Clearfield, and elsewhere. Most of the classes were less than 20, mostly girls. I had one class with only seven, six girls and one boy and another with 29 girls and only one boy. Because gasoline was rationed, we either had to cancel field trips or went to areas we could reach by walking, though, if I remember correctly, we did get a bus for part of a day. That did not deter learning. One of my classes decided on a Geological Dinner with a menu wholly in geologic terms. Sandwiches were Stratified Rocks, potato chips were Mud Curls, ice cream was Rhyolite, and so on. During part of these war years, the Red Central Building was closed off and geology was taught in one of the rooms in the Central Building. During the war years, Webers night school became very important as a means of keeping the faculty employed and also to provide training for the hundreds of workers at Hill Field and the other bases. Many new classes were set up, based on the specific needs of a particular group, with teachers from Weber, many of whom became proficient in a new field. We also used teachers from the area high schools, and from industry. Demand was so great in some fields that classes were run around the clock. Then with VE Day, 8 May 1945 and VJ Day, 2 September 1945, college enrollment skyrocketed. Classes that had only 15-20 or so doubled or tripled in size overnight as the veterans came back. In the fall, gasoline rationing was relaxed enough for us to resume the trips to southern Utah. Two busloads signed up and off we went. On the way to Grand Canyon on the second day out, it began to storm. What do you do in stormy weather with 60 or so students planning to sleep in sleeping bags? How do you feed them when wood is too wet to burn? Find some shelter and some way to heat some food. At Grand Canyon, the U.S. Park Service had some old buildings, in one of which there was a wood stove. Though it was quite late, with a little work and by pushing over some dead standing aspen, we were able to get a fire going, some food cooked, and everyone bedded down. It cleared off about midnight so many slept out anyhow. Next afternoon on our way to Bryce, we had another storm, so we stopped in Kanab and practically took over a cafe for dinner. While eating, the sheriff, Sheriff Swapp, came in and said he had made arrangements for us to sleep in the ward cultural hall, but the group decided they would go to a movie while the bus drivers slept and then drive on to Bryce. Next day, after several hours at Bryce, we started for home and just north of Pan-guitch, one of the buses developed engine trouble! The necessary parts were not available in Panguitch nor could they be obtained from Richfield until the bus came through the next day, so we loaded as many students as possible in the good bus and sent it on. The rest with all the baggage stayed overnight in Panguitch awaiting the repairs. We finally got away about 11:00 a.m. and came home safely. Enrollment was increasing each quarter. My class in Geography of Utah in the fall of1945 had only 13 students. In the spring quarter, 1946, more than 100 signed up. This was a three-hour class and my room held 65. What to do? Split it into two sections, meet each section two days a week in my room and then meet the entire class in another larger room available only one day a week, and say nothing about the added load! Other teachers had similar problems. I think this was one of the years in which so many wanted to go to Zion and Bryce that I ended up taking two trips on successive weeks and in at least one year, I took three busloads on one trip, a total of 105 people. By the fall quarter of 1946, enrollment, particularly returning veterans, had increased so much that three more science faculty were hired: Paul Huish in physics, Ross Hardy in zoology, and Jack Atkins in engineering. Four more were hired in the fall of 1947: Robert Pendleton in zoology, Alva Johanson in chemistry, Ralph Monk in botany, and Elliot Rich in engineering. In 1948 Hubert Lambert came to help in geology. Two more science faculty were hired in 1949: Vern Stromberg in chemistry, and Howard Knight in zoology. During these years of burgeoning enrollments, we were constantly developing new classes and new programs. One of these, which began in 1949, was in integrated course in physical sciences: chemistry, physics, and earth science. This course, Physical Science 1, 2 & 3, was set up to help students, particularly those in non-science. The first year, the course was team-taught by Charles Osmond from physics, Vern Stromberg from chemistry, and Walter Buss from geology with the expectation that each of us would be able to handle the entire program in future years. A similar program was set up in the life sciences. It, too, was team-taught, probably by Sheldon Hayes from microbiology, Howard Knight from zoology, and Ralph Monk from botany. Another new program, called College on Wheels, was begun in the summer of 1946. For several years I had dreamed of teaching geology from the windows of a bus as the group visited areas illustrating particular geologic features. On this first trip in western U.S., we were gone for 39 days, camping out and doing most of our own cooking. Two classes were offered, one for those without previous geology and one for those who had at least one course. Besides textbooks of two kinds, we had a slide projector and other teaching aids, used on the road and in camp at night. We visited 10 national parks: Bryce, Zion, Yosemite, Lassen, Crater Lake, Rainier, Glacier, Waterton Lakes (in Canada), Yellowstone, and Grand Teton each of which is the best example of its particular combination of geologic and scenic features in the country. In most of these parks, arrangements had been made for someone from the Park Service to talk about the geology. We also visited many state parks, several museums, such as the Los Angeles County Museum where the fossils from the Rancho La Brea Tar Pits are displayed, the Tar Pits themselves, and the Griffith Park Planetarium for an understanding of astronomical relations and so on. There were extended tours through Hoover, Shasta, and Grand Coulee Dams. Besides the geology, each participant has memories of unusual or humorous happenings. For example, we had a late family-style lunch in Boulder City, Nevada after a morning on the lake and in Hoover
