Many a nobody who isn't known by anybody becomes a somebody and is known by everybody, and everybody tells him he knew him he was a nobody though he knew he would be somebody some day.

HISTORY CLASS During the sixth period Monday our history class had a very inter­ esting subject for discussion "Man's Triumph Over Disease." The i teacher, Mr. Peterson, related some 1 interesting and humorous tales of i the methods used in; the army camps 1 to prevent illness. I hope our future 1 discussions will be as Interesting as Monday's discussion.-E. E. INSPECTION MEMORIES All ready for tomorrow? Is your - uniform clean and pressed? Are 1 . your shoes shined, and all the c : buttons sewed on your shirt? Then . most of all, do you know your j onions? What's the official name j ; for the rifle, and how much does it c L weigh? Here's hoping you know, . 'cause you're sure going to need it. j ; Inspection is the big event in R. O. T. C., and everybody that makes a r "muff" will not enjoy life for the ; next two weeks. : I remember last year, during platoon competition. Our platoon was going great-had it sewed up. Just then a kid about eight years old-I can remember him still, he ' had white hair and a blue sweater- well he had an inspiration and i "scum" a scheme to swipe the cup r off the reviewing stand. He crept I up, grappled with the colonel, then i picked up the trophy and raced ; across the field. All this happened just as our platoon' was supposed to . execute "column left." When we , heard all the commotion, naturally we looked around to see what was the matter, with the obnoxious re- suit that half the platoon turned to the left and the other half kept r straight ahead. That cooked our t goose. I guess we finished about last in competition. Well, we'll be l seeing you at the Inspection, Thurs­day. Here's hoping you don't get any tough breaks like we got last year.

Graduation Gowns Will Average Only Six Dollars Each Economy is the watchword in commencement frocks this year. At least it is for those girl stu­dents of Ogden High school whc will wear costumes of their owr design at commencement exercises May 25. The average cost of the smart frocks which will grace the figures of these students on that occasion is less than $6. SMART IN DESIGN For the past several weeks the sewing students, under the direction of Miss Margaret Corless, have been exercising their skill and ingenuity In the creation of commencement frocks that, while most moderate in cost, are nevertheless the last word in what the feminine high school undergraduate should wear. Light pastel shades of organdie, chiffon, beige and crepe have been fashioned into lovely frocks embody­ing new fashion trends. Pull, ankle- length skirts lend a stately dignity to the new creations, while modest necklines and short sleeves with flared ruffles are reminiscent of the styles of a quarter century ago. Simple lines and straight waists pre­dominate. Commencement gowns are only one of the many kinds of feminine attire made by girls of Ogden High, In the past few weeks several stu­dents have assembled entire sum­mer wardrobes, including suits,. Bummer coats, jackets, evening gowns and capes. Many of these are of original design. A gold medal will be awarded Friday night, May 19, in the Ogden High school auditorium for needle­work and dressmaking ability. The award will climax a fashion revue to be given at eight p. m. by mem­bers of the sewing classes. For six weeks the classes have been basting, hemming and sewing in preparation for this event. As a result, more than 200 chic frocks, suits and evening gowns, combin­ing late fashion trends with pains­taking work, are ready for exhibi­tion. Mrs. Lucille Chambers, a member of the Ogden High school faculty, Will judge the costumes. The public is cordially invited to ftttend this event, which will be the last on an exhibition and visi­tors' day program a week from to­morrow.

C. cadets staged a stirring military ex- hibition to strains of martial music by the O. H. S. band Thursday aft­ernoon in the Ogden stadium, as part of their annual inspection and review. An overcast sky did not prevent a large crowd from attending the spectacle and though not a drop of rain marred the drill competition, a belated shower began to fall as the cadets entered street cars on the return trip to the school. Interest centered upon winners of the three honor trophies awarded at: the end of the drill competition. The , coveted Kanzler-Mills trophy award­ed to the company adjudged most proficient in drill, was won by com- pany D under the command of Cadet Captain Grant Aadneson, while the Paramount-Publix trophy,, awarded for platoon drill, went to ' the second platoon of company D under the command of Cadet Lieu­tenant David Sharrer. The O. H. S. band earned the right to receive the American Legion trophy, awarded for best attedance and neatness during the year. An individual inspection of each cadet, by Colonel Jerome G. Pillow of San Francisco, and a series of group calesthentics preceded the competition for the trophies. A theoretical examination of cadet officers in military tactics was given by Colonel Pillow Thursday morn­ing. Judges of the competitive drill contests were Mayor Charles L. Hughes, O. R. C.; Captain Everett M. Graves, F. A., and Captain W. G. Dockum, F. A. It is said that an amusing inci­dent occurred in the course of the (inspection. One of the inspecting officers seized the rifle of a cadet !' and after squinting down the bar- i rel, inquired abruptly of the cadet, I "Where is the balance of your ri- i fie?" I "Why,'' returned the cadet, doing s a bit of fast thinking, "this is all I they gave me, sir." Inquiry revealed that the balance of an army rifle is a point approxi­mately midway between the muzzle and the butt, and the rifle if grasp­ed at this point is said to "balance" as regards gravity.
