Cahforni sss -if? - HkGH IP ROTC Rangers meet the challenge Contributed by Major Earl McNeil Four UVSC Army ROTC cadets joined their BYU counterparts on November 8 and 9, 1996, to compete against 19 other teams from California, Nevada, Arizona and Utah in the ROTC Brigade Ranger Challenge Competition. This competition is composed of eight military events; a physical fitness test, patrolling exam, rope bridging, marksmanship, orienteering, hand grenade assault course, weapons assembly and 10 kilometer combat equipment run. Each nine member team competes all events during the course of the two day competition and most teams are made up entirely of men. But no one ever said that UVSC or BYU were "normal" schools. Leave it to the Cougar Battalion and its Wolverine Company to come up with a different way of doing things. Last year a group of female cadets decided that they wanted to enter the competition and formed a team.

The populations of states like California and Arizona dramati- students flooded back home for the holidays. Many of UVSC students are from the San Francisco Bay area. The last of the three sons, New Year's babies The Associated Press Alice and Daniel Olson made headlines 50 years ago when their son Richard became the third Olson to be born on New Year's Day. Richard was born in IN THE 1947. His brother, Duane, was born on New Year's Day 1945, and another brother, Gerald, was born on New Year's 1943. The Olson's triple-play was heralded with headlines like "Hooray, Another Olson," "Every Other New Year's Day," and "Three of a Kind or Is it a Full House?" The publicity didn't reach its peak until one year later, however. Then news of the births went around the world when Ripley's Believe It or Not, an immensely popular column syndicated in hundreds of newspapers at the time, described the coincidence of the births complete with an illustration of Alice Olson in its Jan. 1, 1948, column. "We're still the world's New Year trio, and it has yet to be repeated anywhere," said oldest son Gerald Olson, who's now 54. "I've kept my ears open. Nothing has ever come anywhere close to this." The Olsons raised the boys and two daughters on their farm northeast of Greenwood. Today, Gerald lives in Minneapolis, where he works at the Veterans Administration Hospital. The second New Year's boy, Duane, 52, followed his father into farming. He milks 50 cows on his farm northeast of Greenwood. He and his wife Donna have five children.Dick, the youngest son, lives in Holmen near LaCrosse, where he has managed his own sporting equipment business for 20 years. He and his wife Margie have four children. Of the three brothers, Gerald is most introspective about the births. "My parents were very humble people. They turned down many offers to capitalize on the births over the years," he said. In December, 1995, Gerald gathered his family in the Twin Cities to celebrate New Year's Day, the first time the sons were together as adults for their New Year's Day birthdays. That New Year's Eve, the family attended a show of "The Prairie Home Companion" in St. Paul. During the show's intermission, when host Garrison Keillor welcomed the Olsons and told the audience about the coincidence of their births, "everybody gasped," Gerald said. To commemorate the event during the 1995 gathering, Jerry gave his brothers and mother each sweatshirts bearing the Ripley's cartoon announcing the Olson's feat. More than her sons, Alice Last, continued on page 14 NATION
