Show FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH 10, 1933. School Announces Contestants' Names O. H. S. Will Select Six To Complete For State Forensic Title OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Parke Petterson, Editor; Barbara Kimball and Marjorie Wood, Associate Editors The preliminary tryouts for the state debating team were held Wednesday in room 305. From 15 con- g testants eight were chosen to com- pete for the finals. These eight t will be divided up into teams, and l the six debaters to represent our t school will be chosen from them. c The date of the finals has not been set. The lucky eight are as follows: Grant Burton, Evelyn Ensign, Sidney Gordon, Gordon Hudson, Clara Johnson, Roy Ross, Roland Stone l 'and Anthon Yarbrough. Some very fine material was presented in the speeches, and it is hoped that Ogden High will produce an excellent team. CLUB NAMES Much was I deceived when I first came to high school about the names and announcements that I saw on the bulletin boards concerning the clubs, as the sound and spelling so misled me. Now take, Zeta for instance (everyone else takes it, so I guess I can). There's a good club but what a name. It sounds like the name of a close ; rival magazine of Ballyhoo. Carpe Diem brings fleeting thoughts of a fishing club. And one club with all of its little Lambdas puts me in mind of a sheep camp. Now if these clubs would discard their present names, which are not only hard to pronounce but very deceiving to the average person as to purpose and meaning, and adopt a name such as Happy High-Hat Hotcha Heifers, Pretty Perfect Pansies, or The Fluffy Frilly Tillies, they would not only rescue the stronger sex from the present obstacles of speech but would also do their bit in dispensing with a dead , language and cementing firmer in the annals of history a form of ' slang which shall always show its 1 influence of the people - Jack , Bennett. CARNIVAL DATE I In a previous issue we advertised 5 the carnival sponsored by the Girls' association to be given March 10 " but, due to the fact that it con- flicted with the Ogden and Rich " county game, we found it necessary to postpone the carnival until Wednesday, March 15. So just reserve tonight for the game and in the t meantime keep the carnival in mind e and tell your friends it's the hit of I the year. - The Ogden High girls have some I hotcha basketball teams and the e, Girls' association-well, it can surely e entertain; so be on hand for the s carnival and help Ogden High buy t its flag-Dui Verre C. WHO WILL BE QUEEN? Here are some of the personal ; ! opinions passed in and around school: Dave Wright-Bundy is a great ' dame even though I know her heart is elsewhere. Jack Shaw-Regardless, I'll wager even money on M.J.L. Roland Stone-Undecided, as al- . ways. Dale Anderson-I really don't care only it would surely be a sweet "Paine."-Ima Fairy. CLASSICALIA Are you listening? C: Class and creative. L: Luscious lips. A: Attributing. S: Shimmering slenderness. S: Splendor supreme. I: Biteracy. C: Colorful costumes. A: Adventurous. L: Luring and languishing. I: Interesting. A: All in all, alluminous. My contribution toward the Classi- - calia's advertising. Now if everybody comes I think we'll all have : more fun than a gypsy. Oh say, that's what we're supposed to be. In that case I'll being seeing you, I guess. Famous Last Words: How about a date.-Juste Moi. MARCH 13, 1933 School Will Accept Orders For Yearbook Offer Extended To Those Without Student Body Tickets OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Parke Petterson, Editor; Barbara Kimball and Marjorie Wood, Associate Editors Here is an announcement for all those who do not possess student body tickets. If you wish to have a yearbook, you must notify Mr. Thornley or Lowell James before the end of March. We do not wish to order more than are wanted so it is imperative that we know the exact number required. You are requested to pay a small deposit down, preferably one dollar. As you already know, the entire price is $3.00. Now don't forget, give your name to either Mr. Thornley or Lowell James by the end of this month, or you won't get a yearbook, and you know how awful that would be.-M. P. DALE READ PASSES A cablegram from Austria announced the death of Dale Read, class of 1930. Dale is especially remembered as major of the high school band, as an ardent student of music, a first class boy in all departments of school. We record his passing with a deep feeling of sadness. His death comes as a terrific blow to the parents. To them we extend our heartfelt sympathy for we know they have lost a most dutiful, promising son. May God cr-rifort them in their deep sorrow. TRIBUTE TO OGDEN Filling of the Paramount theatre Thursday evening by Ogden people for the agricultural college rendition of the superb and beautiful grand opera, "Faust," was a dis- itinct tribute to our citizens. They 'appreciate good things. We are glad I to know that Ogden High school was well represented. It was indeed an evening of education and appreciation of the beautiful in music. While the opera itself was beyond what can reasonably be expected of college students the or- icrestra was simply marvelous. We sincerely congratulate the agricultural college, especially the music department, for this fine musical treat given Ogden. ASSEMBLY REPORT Oh! What an assembly! After it had been called to order, Frances Woodcock made an announcement that Carpe Diem, in order to promote better scholarship, would present a cup to the club with the best scholastic record. The program was conducted by Phil Ogden, a Weber college student. Joe Kirkham, a former R. K. O. radio star, played a cornet solo which he composed. He was accompanied by Frank Rounds. Major Dyer's announcement concerning our rifle team made us feel that we have a good old school. Miss Martha Hakes entertained us with an Italian reading, "Mie Carlotta," after which Drew Peterson played a saxophone solo entitled "Golden Dreams." We hope, for the splendid program they gave us, they all passed their examinations. Jack Doone, of Central, announced the Spanish play to be given Friday with admission 10 and 15 cents. We then turned to the thrilling business of nominating a queen. Thirty students were nominated, including one gypsy, Eugene Hassing, who played two accordion solos. Well, girls, here's wishing you good luck! Boys, don't forget Dale's moratorium !-M.P. LAUGHS, NOT TEARS You students who don't take oral . expression don't know what you ' are missing. It provides so many laughs which do not come in other studies. You should have seen Clyde making love, and Maryonne pleading ; with Grant to spare her! (Don't ' get jealous, Ruthie, these were only ! fairy-tale pantomimes.) Jim L. playing the part of "three beautiful daughters," and the hor-' rible beast almost caused us to go into hysterics. Isabella as a witch; Max as King Midas, Deirdre as a golden statue! Laugh? I almost cried! Do you wonder that oral expression is my most interesting study?-M. R. OBSERVATIONS Have you ever seen Janet Fife and Helen Murphy practicing the 'double shuffle?" If you haven't you're certainly missed something. have often wondered what huge attraction Mrs. Irwin's room holds for Betty Gunnell and Harold Manning. What makes girls fall in love with each other? If you would like tc know, just ask Maxine Stone and Ellen Glines! Just think how funny it would seem to sse Dorothy without Dale; Ruth without Clyde; Ruth C. without Jim; Betty without Harold; or Beverly without Grant. By the way, spring is really coming. Holidays are getting closer. Aren't we happy? Hurrah!-Mademoiselle. OUR BEST BET Every year the Classicalia comes around about this time, and with it comes the selection of a queen; fitting and proper. She must have qualities, outstanding qualities; namely, brilliance, character, and beauty (mostly beauty). The halls are searched, the building scoured from end to end, until the lucky young miss is found. But this year, this has been settled for weeks. The young lady was chosen for nomination, nominated, and will, (we hope), be selected queen. The lady of our choice is well known, an excellent student who possesses all the qualities of a queen. If the Ogden High school is looking for a queen to hold the standard of the school as high as in years gone by, her name is Miss Fern Larson. - Larry. RAMBLINGS AND RHYMES Did you ever stop to wonder, stop to ponder, stop to think, regardless, of how you hesitate or stall, with its paper, books and ink-School is just a great big party after all! j Yeah, believe it or don't, this per- i son has come to the conclusion that it is just that. Imagine it-all the young things in the city going to an exciting party six hours out of every day! Taking tests or working out math- emical problems is quite as fascinating and not much ntore difficult than playing cards, writing answers in party games, or putting jig-saw puzzles together. And playing a good stiff game of basketball up in the gym is much more diverting than knocking around the furniture trying to find the treasure or some other form of rough and tumble game that is practiced at parties. Then at twelve we have "the pause that refreshes," and at one o'clocl we are back for some' more little mental teasers. Oh, yes, it's a great life, if you can keep your head above water. By the way, did you know that Tex Bollig is "kinda worried about somepin." We'd like to know what; so would Tex. Tony says, "I was sleepy; I was tired. I wanted to go to bed. When I woke up in class, was my face red" And say, boys, here's a break for you. Now with the big costume frolic coming, there are a couple of women who haven't as yet been dated up. Just keep your ears open, and when you hear two fair damsels moaning, "No date! No boy! No dance! No .joy! Oh. me! Oh. my! I weep and sigh. Oh, woe is life, full of trouble and strife!" Well then, fellows, step up and do your stuff. And speaking of the big affair, here's my latest advertising contribution: Sing a song of students. Going to go? You bet! Sure to make the Classicalia The best one we've had yet! Well, that's all for this week - Lacka Day. RIEN Have you noticed any difference in the notes lately? Well, everybody else has and is wondering what happened to all "snoopnocracy." Mary D. thinks there ought to be zippers on banana peels, because she doesn't get that hungry all ati one time. Half for breakfast and; half for lunch. Frances S. says that a boy's fav-' orite color is blue. I don't think she's very far wrong. (Emphasize very). We wish President Roosevelt I would give more and longer talks. I prefer them to French any day. Well almost any day. The big question is: Who is going to be queen? I'm not saying much 1 now, but watch this column for - further information on the subject. : I may guess right.-Just Moi. |
