| 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. |

McKAY LlSSKy DEC 1 2 1989 TUESDAY, DECEMBER 12,1989 VOLUME 101 NUMBER 15 Mono cases begin their yearly rounds By TRACY BYBEE Scroll Staff Writer Mononucleosis, more popularly known as the " kissing disease" is caused most commonly from lack of rest and an inadequate diet. With this in mind it is not surprising to hear the large number of students affected by this disease on college campuses, Ricks included; in fact, it's a yearly event on campus. The Ricks College Health Center tested 243 students for the disease in November alone; of those tested, 84 received positive test results. " About one- third of all the tests we administer turn out positive" said Lorraine Cziep, a medical technician at the center. " Some of these are repeat cases, but a greater majority are new cases." The center had requests for mono testing as early as September, which, according to Cziep is out of the ordinary; but the number of cases for this time of year is pretty typical Charlotte Walker, a registered nurse at the Health Center, explained that the varying symptoms require different treatments. Symptoms include: fatigue, fever, headaches, enlarged and tender glands, a sore throat, loss of appetite and a rash. If one has a combination of two or more of these symptoms, it is advised they be testedby taking a blood sample. A number of antibiotics are administered to help regulate the body's systems and fight off any other sicknesses one might acquire when the immune system is weakened. However, according to Walker, the best treatment is a nutritious diet and plenty of rest. " It also happens to be the best prevention" added Cziep. She added that mononucleosis lasts five to 10 days, with fatigue continuing for another week or longer. Complications, ranging from neck glands becoming enlarged and tender to liver and spleen damage, may occur if the proper treatment is ignored or if the disease goes undetected. When diagnosed with the disease, " Do only what you have to, such as attending class, and cut out all extra activities" urged Walker. Santa Claus paid a visit to the Jingle Bell Bazaar Thursday night in the Man waring Center. The bazaar is one of many Christmas attractions at Ricks; others include Christmas Tree Lane, which comes to a close Friday, and numerous musical programs provided by Showtime and other various music groups on campus.

English professor Kendall Grant was pleased he faced so few problems moving to his new office. " I'm the wrong person to talk to" he said, " I had no problems in moving." Grant, along with about 25 others from the English faculty, moved from their old offices in the Smith Building and various other buildings on campus, where many were stuck in nooks and crannies until the office building was complete, to the spacious new facility. Jim Smyth, administrative vice president, is also pleased with the new facility and lack of difficulty in com pleting construction. " The contractor did a very commendable job in getting it done in a timely fashion" he said. English professor Norm Gage agrees: " If s very nice. We have a beautiful outside view of the quad. It's also fairly quiet and is convenient for other members of the department" Construction of the faculty office building, which began just before the summer terms commenced in April, was originally scheduled to be completed in October but instead was finished in rime for the Thanksgiving holiday. ByKAREENDIRK On- Campus News Editor Christmas Tree Lane has been a featured attraction at Ricks in honor of the festive Christmas season; Rexburg residents as well as students look forward to the two- week-long event. However, the festivities are dampened when, in strolling through the MC prepared to admire ^ • ^ ^ • ^ ^ • ^ ^ • i and enjoy the variety of ornaments, their aren't a variety of ornaments left to admire. People have been defacing the trees; an act that, although probably done in jest, is legitimate vandalism. These " pranks" have caused much disappointment among those who work on campus. " It's pathetic" commented Pam Hess, ASRC secretary. " There have been three or four Christmas Tree Lane trees that have had ornaments taken from them." These trees include one sponsored by the Criminal Justice Club, which, ironically, had tiny ornamental handcuffs stolen from their tree. . The Big Buddy SCROLL News Analysis Campus Vandalism organization had an activity explicitly to make decorations for its tree, but their efforts were ransacked — all that remains on its tree is a paperchain with all the little buddies' names on i t. The ASRC tree, once comple te with 14 rag dolls hand made by the women in the executive offices, is not complete anymore. According to Hess, seven of the dolls have See VANDALS Page 3 |
