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. |

Although other coUeges, universities and academies have forms of the Honor System, they are compulsory. The Church colleges are the only schools of higher learning applying the voluntary Honor System. " To Thine Own Self Be True" is the theme of this " Honor Week." Dr. J. Elliott Cameron, Dean of Students at BYU, started the week speaking at the Monday devotional assembly. " The philosophly of the world has become a disintragration of human morals and a joke" said Dr. Cameron. " The new ideas of life are based on relatismr The dogma of the up coming generation that man should be good, but not too good; the self- sufficient, independent ones who hace little trust In his fellow man and doesn't expect his fellow man to trust him. There are the negatives of the gospels philosophy and are combated through the Honor Code." Bro. Cameron further explained to the student body that the Honor Code has four main points: 1. Students should not lie, steal, or cheat ^., 2. Students should live the word of wisdom. ,' 3. Students should be morally clean— homosexually as well as hetrosexually. 4. Students should have respect for the property rights of others. The irony of the Honor Code is that although it is a limiting force of the bad in life it also contains the principles by which we can obtain our greatest freedoms. The Honor Council continued the week's agenda by holding discussions with the dorms and various student government organizations. In these discussions they explained why the Honor System was set up and how it works on the Ricks College campus. Tomorrow morning's assembly will feature another noted. speaker from the BYU campus, Brother LaVar Rockwood. He will be the Honor System, Talent Show - Great Hit By Wallace Brazzeal Bell sounds of the organ hushed the near capacity crowd at the Saturday night talent show.

There were plenty of beauties and lots of spice: Laura Orion's Spanish dance; Miss Anchorage, Alaska's ( Carolyn Crist) acrobatic dance, and a jazz dance by Ron Henderson, who by the way, likes all kinds of dancing including " stomp" types. Julie Andrew would have been proud and Bobby Dylan jealous at the talent we have here at Ricks. Although there were fifteen acts, forty tried out. Co- chairmen Lauri Sanders and Bryan White agreed they were all great and that it was too bad everyone could not perform. Along with this year's special array of talent we also have Del Faddis and John Thompson, who lend their professional experience to forthcoming programs, talent shows, and entertainment on campus Scholarship Dance The Associated Women Students are holding a scholarship dance this Friday night in the Manwaring Student Center ballroom.
