| Description | The Scroll newspaper has been in print since 1905, when BYU-Idaho was known as the Ricks Academy, a locally run school with a newly-developed high school program. At the time this newspaper was known as the “Student Rays,” and was printed monthly. In 1933 the name of the newspaper changed to “The Purple Flash.” In 1937 the name was changed again to “Viking Flashes,” and in 1938 the name finally changed to “The Viking Scroll.” The paper continued under this name until 1972, when it changed to “The Scroll.” The Scroll is still in print at BYU-Idaho as its official newspaper. |

"I've found that a lot of students want to serve, but when they come to a new community they don't know where to go to get involved. We see that as a real need, to help students find those opportunities" Brian Schmidt, Teton Mountain Student Leadership Institute director, said. "Service can be simple. Our hope with the center is to make it easy to get involved." The Service Center matches people who want to serve with people who need help. Lists of service clubs and one-time service projects have been available to students for years, but access to long-term service opportunities is new this year. The projects are displayed in a service station across from the Nordic Landing. Brochures are also available about volunteering in the community. "We (the service center) are not sponsoring service projects" Schmidt said. "Our idea is to refer students and to funnel them into ASRC service clubs and meaningful service opportunities in the community-" Students can sign up for one-rime service projects or f i l l out a form for a long-term service activity at the information desk in the Manwaring Center. Student leaders will then contact those interested. "We hope the community will see how caring and concerned •Please see Service, Page 3 Victory Photo by BART STRATTON ST. GEORGE, Utah — Offensive lineman Cleve Aiono, a sophomore from Compton, Calif., leads the Viking celebration after Ricks College, ranked No. 3 nationally, spanked the No. 1-ranked Dixie Rebels 41-12 in Saturday's game. With the victory, the Vikings have a shot to climb to a No. 1 ranking and are in the hunt for a national championship. See Page 25 for details of the game. Former Ricks employee arrested in firearms, explosives investigation By Sarah Monson Off-campus news editor A city block was cordoned off and 18 homes evacuated Wednesday afternoon as police and agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms removed a stash of illegal explosives from the home of a Rexburg man arrested the day before in a gun-running investigation. Federal agents arrested David Hannah, 51, Tuesday at the Shilo Inn in Idaho Falls, Idaho, after several months of investigation. Court records filed by the U.S. Attorney's office in Boise stated that an undercover agent had purchased several machine guns from Hannah over the past eight months. Sale or possession of machine guns is a federal offense. Hannah resisted arrest and attempted to pull two guns on two ATF agents, but was subdued and charged with assaulting federal officers, court documents said. He is being held without bail in the Ada County Jail, where the U.S. Magistrate Court determined Friday there was sufficient evidence for a grand jury trial next week. Following the arrest, agents began a routine search of Hannah's home at 125 -N 1st East and found the stockpile of explosives, including military-grade plastic explosive C-4, which is banned from civilian use and the commercial market. Explosives were found in every major room of the house, and the Post Register reported that ATF Agent Sterling Nixon said, "We saw flashpowder over work benches and dynamite mixed with flash-powder ... Flashpowder just lying out like that could be detonated by static electricity." Further searches uncovered dynamite and more fireworking materials in a rented cinderblock shed off Highway 33 north of Rexburg. No motives explaining the gun activity or explosive storage have been offered. Hannah was not a known member of any larger groups in the area. Hannah had three sons from his first marriage who were living in the house at the time. Neighbors said police allowed the boys, ages 20,16 and 14, to return home Friday. A former Ricks College employee who worked as a printer at the college presses until personal problems forced him to leave a few years ago, Hannah has also fired the touchdown cannon at home football games for 17 years and organizes the annual Rexburg Fourth of July fireworks show. He makes his own fireworks and had warned neighbors that he had related materials stored in his home, but the search and seizure came as a surprise to most residents. •Please see Hannah, Page 19 Ricks Coll e g e • R e x b u r g , I d a h o |
