Youths Organize Bachelors' Club Oats Is Taken That "We're Through With Women For Life" OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Parke Petterson, Editor Barbara Kimball and Marjorie Wood Associate Editors BACHELORS' CLUB ORGANIZED go Time: Friday, January 20,1933, at eight forty-five o'clock. ti(! Place: O. H. S. gymnasium. Object: To organize an anti-women club Reason: "Our dames threw us (I Oath: "We're through With women for life." . d The story is almost told, but in j. order that you may understand it ' more clearly, I shall relate the de- m. it- Last Friday, after the Ogden- Bear River game, about twenty of; Ogden High school's most prom-! inent masculine members gathered to organize a new club. First we ' decided that we would call it "Thel Bachelors' club." We then pro- Ir" ceeded to elect officers. The fol- lowing were elected: Paul Bramwell, president; Reed Berrett, vice presi- - dent; Ralph Berrett, secretary and rr R," scribe. j H This bit of business over, we swore i in each member. With one hand! oi placed on an algebra book, each one; c repeated: "I solemnly swear that h; I am through with women for life." w Next our president announced f that we would have to have a stag o party. We hastened away to the tl Egyptian theatre. On our way down m town we met about six more fellows cl and immediately they were sworn tl in and became full fledged mem­bers. With the addition of these tc new members we went to the theatre p (paid admissions, too). And say, I y, believe we enjoyed this picture more i( than we had enjoyed any picture for a long time; not because it was f- an exceptionally good picture, but b because we wern't bothered with a someone's head on our shoulder (OOo-o). When we made a dis- t turbance the only ones who rep- q remanded us were the ushers. (This c is something new.) c When the show was over we held j. another short meeting and decided t that as far as we were concerned t the Cadet hop would be a stag party, t After renewing our oath, we ad- journed. g Women haters signing off,-"R." P.S. If anyone sees any of these members breaking their oath, we would appreciate it if you would let us know. YE TOWNE CRYER Hear ye! Hear ye! students, have ji you heard of the contest? You I haven't? How far behind the times a you seem to be. You should be it ashamed. , The United States navy depart- f ment is sponsoring a nationwide'11 essay contest. This is for the pur-U pose of awakening certain people ji in our country to the fact that we !j have a navy. j The essays are to be written on one side of the paper only, should be about 2000 words in length and 3 may be typewritten if the author prefers. The paper is to be num- bered at the bottom and the author is to put his name, address, age, and school at the top of each page. It may be written on any ap- propriate subject such as "My Fa­vorite Naval Hero and Why," "Famous Ships of the Navy," "Why the Navy Is Needed by the United States," or any subject which the, author may choose which is per-, taining to naval activities. All essays must be finished by Monday, January 30. Spelling,! neatness, punctuation and accuracy j of statements will be considered in making the awards which are two! pictures depicting some famous1 naval scenes and-attention you publicity hounds-arrangements are being made to broadcast the best essays over the radio. The towne cryer has now broad­cast his little tale of good cheer and will now bid you one and all, "Happy Days." I -Robert Hunter. DAILY SPEECH Each morning to the students of Ogden High school an inspiring pep talk is given over the radio by our principal, Mr. Merrill. It ' is evident that if we would listen to I his advice more successful futures would be insured. The enthusiasm derived from these talks renews a desire to work toward our final j_ goal. It builds up good will and friendship between the students and teachers. It is such friendly rela­tionships as these that make us - glad to be students of Ogden High school.-Tom Doxey, Room 204. e GIRLS' ACCOLADE Those in search of an effective R spectacle should have glanced in at the Berthana ballroom last Friday evening when the Girls' Accolade was in full swing. Laughter vi and gaiety prevailed everywhere. Do S( you want to know why? Well, herej! it is. For once the boys were free from financial torment, which was' a j sufficient to make them happy for a month, and on the other hand s the girls seemed to get a big bang out of being the big shots for a (change. Some girls did not live up L to the expectations of a few of the boys, however, when it came to ; I checking the coats, and embarrass- d ment was forced upon many a vie-1 fl tim. The programs and hall carried a I out the rainbow idea. A large arch ; covered with vari-colored paper and E having a pot of gold at each end E was placed over the French doors, c facing Twenty-fourth street; an- si ; other rainbow arch was found on p : the wall of the punch booth, and to y i make the picture complete the or- R ; chestra stand blended perfectly into, i this atmosphere. I wonder how many of the dancers ; took any particular notice of the1 a ! punch, besides its taste. Well, ii- p you did, you probably saw that our a 3 idea was even reflected here. Many p 3 little pieces of vari-colored ice were I 31 floating about in the large crystal q k bowl, adding much to the appear- 1 ance of the punch. n r Last but not least I should men- t tion the appearance of the couples.1 v The girls were bewitching in their c s clever frocks which again were e clearly a reflection of the rainbow j And the boys, well, even though j 3 they did look neat in their attire, 3 the most impressive thing about j 7 them were their broad smiles and apparent lack of worry as they1 glided from partner to partner. -Hazel Lewis. THE DAILY BLAST d Well, well, well, students and teachers, the old advisor once more I takes up his pen to write something i e I interesting. u i Mr. Burp stated that kissing was' j 'S an unhealthy exercise, but I think c I there's a risk in all things. , Mr. Bud Ellis-key-on-a-stick, the t famous athlete's foot, accompanied t Lei by Grant Slanter Aadenson of the) j r-tin militia, have gone as guest ofj le'honor on the annual tour of the ( el nursery country. Their genial pres- ! lence will be much missed here- !, n abouts. i j 1 Mr. Hammer Head was host at a lct reception in honor of his fellowmen, or Dribble Drabble, Burp and Axel at a" Arkville park on Wednesday eve- ' fining. The cotillion, late in the eve- e ning was led by the inimitable e- dancers, Mr. Sydney Gordon, and P" his partner, Helen Parmley. a" The Accolade was given by the daughters of this school, and held in nthe ice palace of the Berthana. Famous last words - Beware of pe!the woman that never resorts to ;r" tears. -He Who Snoops to Conquer. O. H. S. NUTS ig I thought the Accolade was a lCy party for the girls to give the O. H. S. boys a break and take them Woto the dance for the first time in )us; their lives. It seems that the boys ouof Weber High or the junior highs irewere only ones to get anything out gst of it. At any rate, rather than stay at home, the boys came to the game and then went to the theatre. I serhope this chokes the females. Now all is the time for all good columnists 'to come to the aid of the snilitary ball. Uncle Sam needs you!

Clark, presi- dent of the University of Nevada in jn( Reno, reading: "I congratulate you upon the ex- D cellent records made in our Uni­versity of Nevada during the past semester by two of the graduates of your high school. These students tl and their records are: ci "Lloyd N. Bowen, arts and o: sciences, L. Fr. class, average grade fl 1.50:15 credit hours. "Andrew Morby, arts and sciences, I L. Fr. class, average grade 1.59; 16% credit hours. "These excellent records of stu- f ! dents in the first semester of their :n freshman year at this University of j T Nevada are clear evidence that you tl and your staff are giving excellent v, scholarship training in the Ogden High school. This University of Nevada will be glad indeed to re- w ceive many graduates from your ri school, especially if they have been E prepared anything like so well as ti you have prepared Bowen and Morby". CONGRESS In congress last Monday, we held; I a very interesting session. The a permanent officers were elected and fc are: President, Kathryn Skeen; vice president, Clara Johnson; secretary, t Lois Smalley; reporter, Mary Paquette. Next on the program were five-j minute speeches on the state ques- ! l? tion of bi-metalism. These speeches; a were designed to aid in choosing the i debaters against Forum. Very inter­esting speeches were given by Louise Linton, Kathryn Skeen, Letitia Perry, Marjorie Glines, Clara John­son, Evelyn Ensign, Erma Langford, Lois Smalley and Marion Turner. i After much discussion ,two junior j j members, Louise Linton and Evelyn Ensign, were chosen to debate ( against Forum. Good luck, girls'.-' Mary Paquette. REWARD OF DILIGENCE "Seest thou a man diligent in his business?" says Solomon; "He shall stand before kings." How true this is. We have a striking illustration of this aphorism in the life of j Benjamin Franklin, who, quoting the sentence himself, adds, "This is f true: I have stood in the presence of five kings, and once had the honor , I of dining with one." These honors icame to him because of his having , been diligent in business from his 1 earliest years. This is a wonderful example from which we all can j benefit. If we would all work as diligently J as possible, think of the satisfaction we would get. No need then for teachers to mark us low or to scold us, because our part of the work t would be done., I am sure that wej could all be just this if we would ( only try. Of course it would be hard, but anything worth-while has to be worked for. Nothing of any import- ance is ever given away. i "Laziness," says Sir M. Hales, "grows on people; it begins in cob- webs and ends in chains. The more ' business a man has to do, the more, ; he is able to accomplish; for hej learns to economize his future." We ( . can learn a great deal from thi. ! statement. If we start to shirk our. ' many small duties when we are! young, we find that they seem to! , get harder and harder to do as we 'grow older. Therefore we must start right now I while in school and build a firm foundation for a later life with diligence as its corner-stone. Plaster the building with honesty, order, 'industry, sincerity and moderation. Thus our edifice of human life will tower up as a massive, excellent, and immovable work of art. Our name will long be revered and esteemed. And in our last years, when we look back we can truly say :that because of "diligence to busi­ness" we have very successfully completed our mission on earth- Dean Jones. WHY HALF MAST We get so many phone calls- "Why is your flag at half mast?" that we rise to explain: The law and custom require that after the death of a president or ex-president, the flags on public buildings be dis­played at half mast for 30 days. BURP? Who is Burp? What does he do for a living? I'll bet he's from the monkey tribe of Burps, or perhaps I I'm wrong. Did anyone see him at !the girls' dance? We didn't but what's that got to do with tech­nocracy. Burp is the kind that leads high school boys and girls the wrong way, so beware. Sleep tight and do not dream of Burp, the wonder man. B-R-A-Y-Discontinuing services for today or night, whichever it is.- Goodaynight. PATCHING THINGS UP I may be wrong but I don't think B. T. is a bad sort of a little boy after all. He has a sense of humor but of course a little antique. Of course you want to see some- thing funny. Watch Jerry Seal writ­ing notes to Bernice in the hall. (He's a sledge.) ; Well, we visited Dave Wangsgard's j kingdom of Huntsville Sunday night i! and he seems to be quite a big shot ! up there. Did you notice that four pledges : spent a while in jail for breaking bottles?-Juste Moi. CADET CHANGES j The following appointments and ' I promotions are hereby announced in; l the reserve officers' training corps, Ogden Senior High school: Band, second lieutenant; Jack Watson, to be first lieutenant; Private William Reeve, to" be second lieutenant. O. H. S. NUTS "Will Kapple do it again?" the critics ask, But Kapple says nothing, his face is I a mask, ji He keeps his mouth shut, and wonders, "Who's the nut?" I We wonder if he will keep the flask (or jug). Of course, B. T. could write better poetry than this but I'm just getting 1 his ire to get him to write some for your benefit. y Criticism for the Monday issue of 1 the notes: Kay Hitt makes a good editor be- . cause she writes upon something that makes a person want to read 'the notes, but I wish she would write . to the city or state for beautifying ' the high school, or better still, to e build a new one. S. M. Reporter is a funny name for a lad. B. T. should have that s' name. Yeah? And whoever heard of a "smoke of a swimmer." e That "fountains" gag would prob- e ably serve for the job of sports edi- fl tor before the days of basketball, etc.-Burp.
