One hears satiri¬cal or other clever remarks in every nook and corner, said jokingly to a friend or acquaintance. Since the Notes are representative of your ideas ,a large portion of humor is expected to be printed in this column. Why will you waste valuable words on only a few associates when countless individuals may read them in the oaper? Write your original thoughts or characteristic saying to print in the school Notes. In thr, way many more will have the opportunity to appreciate real tal¬ent. R. O. T. C. APPOINTMENTS An Ogden High student noticed Sergeant Holloway on the football j field the other afternoon after school. He seemed to be very much interested in some of the individual members of the squad. No doubt he was getting a mental picture of some of the fellows as they would appear in the uniform of a captain or a major. Well, it looks as though our R. O. T. C. officers will soon be appoint¬ed! I suppose Sarge Holloway thinks that big football players make splen¬did instructors in the army. That being the case, all of us should try for the football team, unless we should choose to remain in the ranks this year. And I did so want to be a he-man officer—A Non-Athlete. INTERESTING CLASS Mr. Hancock's seventh period so¬ciology class has had some very in¬teresting classes during the past few days. They have had reports on Spain, England, the southern plan¬tations and Mexico. Mr. Hancock gave a splendid talk on Mexico. He compared the social life of the Mex¬icans to the social life of the people here. The officers of this class are: President, George Nelson; vice pres¬ident, Valine Checketts, and secre-tary, Rose Morrisson. Mr. Hancock still has the congrat¬ulation note to his second period Spanish class of last year for per¬fect attendance for a week. Come on, students of seventh period class! Let's make Mr. Hancock proud of us by having a perfect attendance for two or three weeks.—Le Ida Roberts. JUST IMAGINE Everyone to classes on time; No one chewing gum; Teachers forgetting to give as¬signments; One noon hour passing without girls from Central riding past high school on the side of a car; Bob Becker with bright red curls; Pudgy not saying, "Hello"; Mary without Frank; No radiator romances; A new high school within the next fifty years; Burp II without his daily gossip. —Jonsey. COME ON, FELLOWS The cafeteria is now opened to all students, both teachers, girls and boys. We especially want to urge the boys to visit our cafeteria each noon. Boys, this cafeteria not only in operation for the girls, but for you as well. We have very appetizing lunches; for example, we have sandwiches, soups, vegetables, cake, pie, ice cream and popsicles at a very low price. Come fel¬lows, we again invite you to eat in the cafeteria. This doesnt' mean that all girls shouldn't eat in the cafeteria either. We want every¬body to support the O. H. S. cafe¬teria!—Le Ida Roberts. 10. OGDEN'S CADET UNIT ENLARGED BY ARMY ORDER Uniforms Will Be Provided For One Hundred More School Youths OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen, Associate Editor. "The best piece of news thus far the school year" is the way Ogden High school refers to the following letter from the army Ninth orps headquarters in San Francisco: "Subject: Allocation of R. O. T. C. enrollment for fall term, academic year 1934-35. "To: Professor of military science and tactics, Ogden High school, Og¬den, Utah. "1. Reference is made to your letter of September 9, 1934, regard¬ing requisition for additional uni-forms and increase in enrollment allotment. "2. The enrollment allotment of 400 authorized the Ogden High school in paragraph lb, letter this headquarters, July 27, 1934, is here¬by increased to 500. Your requisi¬tion for additional uniforms has been approved by this headquarters. "By command of Major General Craig "W. C. SWEENEY, Colonel, Infantry, Acting Asst. Adjutant General." "FREEDOM OF THE PRESS" Publications are representative of every opinion in the school. Hence, all articles which express personal viewpoints will be printed, providing, of course, the item is of good j quality. Severe criticisms of established practices and objections to various regulations or methods of procedure in electing students for important positions will certainly be acceptable, when the purpose of the literary discussions are to stimulate interest in correcting grievous faults. Just as important, though, are the new items which laud the best points of any phase of student life. Every individual should have the oppor¬tunity of realizing the worth of nu¬merous functions or organizations The Notes, in other words, be¬lieves in voicing the rights and be¬liefs of all students. CLUBS TO ASSIST A crisis is near at hand. Mem¬bers of this school are not purchas¬ing student body tickets, and as a result the numerous clubs are ob¬ligated to persuade those who have not as yet bought tickets to obtain them immediately. All organizations are working together as one unit in boosting successfully this cam-paign. Anyone wishing to purchase student body tickets now may get them from a club member. This drive to increase the funds is indeed a worthy one. Please, stu¬dents, do your part and support the cause.—Wrong Time. ALWAYS WHEN NEEDED As is always the case, our jani¬tors are on the job, keeping the halls and rooms in order and sweep¬ing up after our untidy feet. We are just as glad to see them as we were the teachers. To the seniors especially, the janitors add a feel¬ing of home. Why not help them in their work? We students can lighten the burden of cleaning by becoming individual janitors ourselves. Three cheers for the men who keep Ogden High school clean! May we add this: The janitors say that students seem more care¬ful, more considerate than hereto-fore. There is less litter in hall¬ways, on school grounds, and in class rooms. SINGERS WANTED! At the beginning of the school year, a mixed chorus was formed. It looked discouraging at first and threatened to become a girls' glee club in spite of the efforts of three j or four faithful boys. Then the united efforts of Mr. Merrill and Mr. Honsen encouraged ten or eleven more boys and several girls to enlist, making a total of thirty- two, fourteen of whom are boys. It forms a well-balanced group, but the goal has been set at sixty, and it shall yet be gained. But in order to do so we need the aid of every student in Ogden High! Come yourself, bring your friends, and you'll never regret it, because the program of the future year is well planned. The depart-ment has provided a year of intense interest; one of activity that will enthuse the worker—Iola Langford. WE NEED SUPPORT To look forward to the activities which will take place this year is most exciting. The first event, which took place Thursday, is an annual occurrence which none of us should have missed. The seniors intended to show the juniors a good time. This didn't cost anyone a cent. But, students, there are many functions that are sponsored by stu¬dent body funds. Just visualize what they are—football, basketball, dancing, a yearbook, debating, opera, and others. Can't you pic¬ture Ogden High school without so¬cials musical and literary activities? Uneventful and undesirable would cials, musical and literary activities? our student body officers by buying student body tickets immediately.— Mary Vance. |
