| 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. |

Romney and Gordon B. Hinckley, have returned to their places in the Council of the Twelve. President Kimball, the 12th president of the church, has been ill since an operation in 1982, making infrequent public appearances. However, he attended the semiannual general conferences of the church and was reported to rarely miss a temple session. Gordon B. Hinckley, 2nd counselor, has g" physically led the church the past few years. o Yet, he was always quick to acknowledge Presi- « • dent Kimball as the church's head. Pres.

Kimball's days would be prolonged and that another miracle would be performed on his behalf to extend his life. " Now that the Lord has spoken, we will do our best to move the work forward on earth" the new president said. " Some have expectedly inquired about the direction of the church in the future" he said. He reaffirmed the leadership's committment to the three- fold program now in operation: • To preach the gospel throughout the world. • To perfect the saints. "• To redeem the dead. Pres. Benson, at 86, is the second oldest church president to assume the leadership position. INSIDE COMIC STRIPS Writer Michele Duggar looks at the emergence of the new cartoon ships. Page 14- 15 inside.
