VOLLEYBALL With Captain Ruth White at the helm, the Red Peppers won the girls' volleyball championship Wed-nesday, October 11, 24-14. The op¬posing team, captained by Betty Miligan, threatened several times but lacked the punch to win. Those on the winning group were: Ruth White, Margaret Schott, Verna Mac Wiggins, Dorothy West, Josephine Stone, Leatha Hess, Adella Westbrook, Eileen Rose, Violet Hall, Elfie Grasteit, and Jewel Pounds. Congratulations, Peppers!—Doro¬thy West. A BRAINSTORM Above and around him, solid waves of sound crash. The tumult grows even greater, and it seems as if his eardrums can stand it no longer. At first, in the welter of nois, he recognizes the crash of the cymbals, the shrieking of the clarinet, and the wild trumpeting of the cornets. Then, as the waves of jarring tones become intermingled, he hears the thunder of the surf. As he hears the waves crashing on the rocks, the clamor increases until the very violence of the tu¬mult around him presses heavily upon him. He feels himself sinking down, down, down. The clamorous storm settles like a blanket over him shutting off the air. What is this? This monster that winds huge arms around him, choking him, and towers over him. He struggles, but it is use¬less. This inexorable being crushes him down. His struggles grow weaker, and he resigns himself to the inevitable. Just then the wild bombardment of noise suddenly ceases, the bell brings him back to reality, and he finds himself struggling out of his sousaphone after his first day in the band.—Wayne Bundy. IF I WERE TEACHER In connection with a very delicate subject, I wish to enumerate some of the most important changes which I would accomplish if I were teacher. First, my students wouldn't have to pay attention. I realize that it is difficult to pay anything these days. Besides, in paying attention, the students would sacrifice the well known, all important, private dis-cussions that are so common, and that would be disastrous. Second, the getting of assignments would be absolutely voluntary. As¬signments would take up too much valuable time which could be other¬wise usefully spent on the street corners, in the halls, or in the chil¬dren's library. Third, gum chewing would be ap¬proved. Gum should be more ex¬tensively chewed because it pro¬vides the much needed exercise for the jaws. It also diverts the weary mind from the numerous trials of a high school student's life. Fourth, my pupils would speak as they wished, naturally and easily. This is because the additional brain strain caused by correct speaking might cause a mental breakdown, which would be most unfortunate. I believe that I have now touch¬ed all the important points in the teaching of school, except that if I were a teacher, I would regard this as being merely the outcome of a philosophic tantrum and a sup-posedly humorous touch of mental alienation. On the other hand, I would "go easy" on the author. — James Andrews. WEEKLY NOTE HOUR As has been announced, every Thursday evening Ogden High High school gives a fifteen minute broadcast over station KLO. Is is sponsored by the School Notes ed¬itors. Many sketches will be enact-ed, and some of our talented stu¬dents will be given an opportunity to speak, play, or sing over the ra-dio. Editors of the Notes are doing their part in creating the program and it is up to the student body to see that it goes over. No radio pro¬gram is successful unless it has a following. The Ogden High pro¬gram should have a large following. The program is broadcast from eight to eight-fifteen every Thursday night. Be sure to tune in!—Kathryn McGowan. YOUR SCHOOL AND MINE A certain second period history class is so full of B.D. (beautiful dames) that who cares if Columbus discovered America in 1776. I'm going to start a campaign for the support of a school hospital. Af¬ter the football plunges in the halls between classes, the students need care and attention from someone. The music department of the school has been given so much publicity lately, it makes me wonder if Mr. Hanson isn't going to give us something bigger and better this year than ever before.—Angelica. 10 PATRONS VISIT SCHOOL TO SEE ABOUT YOUTHS Delinquency In Attendance Mostly Among Boys of Junior Class OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen, Associate Editor. We noted the presence of a num¬ber of patrons at our school this morning. We have been informed, not authentically, but suspiciously, that these parents came in response to a special request of the principal. It is surmised also that the favor¬ed sons of said parents have shown unjustifiable delinquency in the matter of attendance during their brif sojourn at high school. Need¬less to say these were mostly jun¬ior boys. BETTER ASSEMBLIES The Decorum committee made it known on Friday, that assemblies are not "social teas" and that no student will be permitted to show discourtesy to assembly speakers. As above 95 per cent of our student body manifest very proper decorum at assemblies it does not seem that assemblies should be abolished as President Baxter threatens but that the five per cent should be dis¬ciplined. We believe we shall have most acceptable assemblies hereaf¬ter, as the Decorum committee is very alert. WOULD YOU SUPPORT IT? The teachers are thinking of sponsoring a thinkaton contest among the students. The rules governing this event would be such as that the cham¬pion concentrator here at good old Ogden High school would be dis¬covered. To enter, one must con¬sent to concentrate for 45 minutes with five minutes for rest between periods, and time out for lunch. The contest hours would be from eight- thirty a.m. until three-thirty p.m. on week days. The winner of this in each class will receive an "A" grade, certify¬ing that he has been able to keep his mind confined to thoughts of but one subject during each period "on the floor." It is too late to become a contestant for this six weeks, but the entrance applica¬tions for the next contest will be ac-cepted any time on or near Monday, October 15. Are you desirous of winning the title of "champion con¬centrator?" Now, we don't want you to be frightened away by the fact that Mirium Tueller, Blaine Larson, Vir¬ginia McNamara, Barbara Taylor and Ben Alsup are obvious entrants but enter it yourself with the first prize as your goal.—Thinkathon fan. Tune in on KLO every evening at five forty-five and at eight p.m. on Thursdays. A SUGGESTION Gossip on a systemized scale is what this school needs. I suggest someone organize a Gaba Gaba club. To promote school gossip in the halls and in the News Notes would be the purpose of this organization, and the requirements for member¬ship would be: The person must spread gossip about at least one student a day. He must be able to discuss all the admirable and discreditable points of at least three individuals. He should be able to name 15 radiator romances. He must give the latest de¬tailed reports on apple polishing. He must bring to each meeting the spiciest gossip of the week. I'm sure this group would abolish all arguments as to who are the best scandal writers and would con-tribute to the friendly spirit in the school.—Hippy. TO EXTEND FIELD Novi Poetae wishes to thank Mrs. Spencer Stone for her excellent talk which she gave last Thursday. She spoke of some of her own articles which have been published and gave her audience several fine points which already have been put into practice. The club also wishes to announce to the students of Ogden High school that we are extending our field of work. In the near future the study of all creative work, the short story, poetry, drama, novel, and any other will be undertaken.—Novi Poetate, Iola Langford, secretary.
