L.D.S.-O.H.S. Clash Tonight OGDEN TEAMS PREPARE FOR COURT GAMES Five Teams Compete For Title; Bees Strong Again Teams of the Ogden division will open the 1929 basket ball sched¬ule Friday night. Four of the five teams will taste their first compe¬tition of the new season. Ogden opens at Bear River and Weber entertains the Box Elder quint on the Weber court. The remainder of the schedule follows: January 18—Weber at Ogden- Bear River at Davis. January 22—Davis at Box Elder- Bear River at Weber. January 25—Ogden at Davis; Box Elder at Bear River. February 1—Box Elder at Ogden; Davis at Weber. February 8—Bear River at Og¬den; Weber at Box Elder. February 15—Davis at Bear Riv¬er; Ogden at Weber. February 19—Bear River at Da¬vis; Weber at Box Elder. February 22—Davis at Ogden- Bear River at Box Elder. March 1—Ogden at Box Elder; Weber at Davis. The Weber athletes have shown plenty of class in early season con¬tests and should give the Bees a four-period battle. Ogden was powerful last Friday against the West Panthers and should win over the Bears. Davis will be idle during the coming week insofar as league competition is concerned but will get a severe test the following week at Box Elder. Coaches of the five teams expect one of the greatest court races in history of the division. Picking favorites at this early' date is a hard tas. Box Elder however, is sure to be a contender. OGDEN WINS FROM WEST Tigers Defeat Panthers by Score of 38 to 22. With Hales, six-foot-five center, forming the key to their offensive drives, the Ogden high school bas-ketball team won from the West high quintet by a score of 38 to 22 in the Panthers' gymnasium Friday after¬noon. The West team's basket shooting was ragged and its defense eould not stand up against the drives of Hales and the other four Tigers. The first quarter of the game, which ended 12 to 6 for Ogden, saw little or no play that could be called smooth. Although the Tigers were able to break through the West de¬fense time after time in the next quarter, they missed a number of setups, and the Panthers kept up with their opponents' scoring. The half ended 19 to 12 for the winners. But in the third quarter the Ogden five's passing game improved considerably, and they ran up their total to 32 points while the Panthers were adding but five to their score. Hales and Greaves were taken out in the last period, while Coach Bert Ballard of West sent in another complete team, and honors were more evenly divided. Hales was undoubtedly the out¬standing player of the game. He made seventeen of his team's points and was the principal reason why the Ogden quintet broke repeatedly through West's defense. When one of his teammates started up the floor with the ball, he would stand about on the foul line immediately in front of the basket, where, he would re¬ceive the pass and either shoot or pass to some other player in a more advantageous position. Brennan who was ill and played but one period, and Russell played the best ball for the Panthers. Harberton, for Ogden, was right behind Hales in the scoring, making eleven points. The rest of his team also played commendable ball. Corbett, one of the Panthers' main scoring threats, had to work and was unable to play. WEST. OGDEN. G.T.F.P G.T.F.P.

JANUARY 7, KAPPLE NAMES COURT PLAYERS Fifteen Athletes To Wear Colors During New Cage Race Fifteen hoopsters have been named to serve on the first squad at the Ogden High school during the 1929 campaign. Dixon Kapple, director of athletics, announced today. The squad as named is composed of the following: Centers, Hales, L. Mayer and Ward. Forwards, Greaves, Harbertson, Pantone, Wattis, Doak and Wilson. Guards, Chambers, Stone, Francis, Van Dyke and Manning. Hales, elongated center, is one of the new stars of the Orange and Black cagers. He towers well over six feet and is a splendid scorer. The Tigers open their 1929 cam¬paign Friday witf the Bear River five on the Bear River court. They showed plenty of power in their contest last week with the fast West High aggregation. Coach Dixon Kapple will not name his starting lineup until Thursday night. "We have a number of new faces in our lineup this season, but we should make a good showing," said Kapple. "Greaves and Chambers are the only regulars of last season back in the fold." JANUARY 10, 1929. "The secret of success is consist¬ency of purpose."—Disraeli. READY FOR THE RIVER The Ogden Tigers are going to open the league basket ball season with Bear River at Tremonton Friday. The Bears recently registered a 45 to 29 victory over North Cache and it will take plenty of fight for the Orange Streaks to continue their winning career. The team is on its toes, Coach Kapple is humming "Ready for the River," and the "Old Spirit" has been revived at high to such an extent that two buses are being chartered to carry our boosters to the cave of the bear, and a trailer is being added to transport the am¬munition and fireworks. Better arrange for a ticket on the bus now—so you can tell the world you're a Tiger booster. ETHICS OF DEBATE We have received a letter from the extension division of the Uni¬versity of Utah which clears up some of the points which have hitherto been subject to contro¬versy. The letter concerns ethics of debate to be held for state or division titles. Some of the most important ex¬cerpts of this letter read as fol¬lows: "A debate is not a combat; it is a friendly contest. Treat your vis¬iting opponents as friends. "Educate your audience, espe¬cially members of your own in¬stitution to be good sports like yourselves. Applaud the visitors, honor them and be as courteous to them as to your home team. The reputation for being real sportsmen and hospitable is of far more worth to an institution than a reputation for winning debates. "Under no condition allow a friend, debater or coach to argue or quarrel with a judge over the decision. Remember that he is giving his time and talent and is entitled to your respect and cour¬tesy. The real test of manhood and womanhood comes in failure and defeat. Anyone can accept a vic¬tory gracefully but it takes a man of true moral worth to accept de¬feat the same way. Talk with the judges if you wish, get their sug¬gestions and criticisms and improve yourselves thereby, but be men and women enough to accept their judgment with grace even though you think they are in the wrong. "Finally, do not resort to such pracyces as wilfully misquoting au¬thorities, opponents, statistics or facts, nor to the use of deception in your debates. Such practices are contrary to good morals and to the purposes of debate. Honor, and high standards are more to be de¬sired than victory LYONS A VISITOR Harry Lyons, '21, has been a vis¬itor at high school this week. After graduating from high Harry re¬ceived an appointment to the United States naval academy at An¬napolis where he was captain of the boxing team and national in¬tercollegiate middleweight cham¬pion. Since his graduation there he has served three years in the navy and is now associated with the National City company of New York City. He will have offices in Boise. NEW CRUTCHETTE When Ted Jessop cast away his crutches and started walking again, Ruth Zuppann thought it neces¬sary for someone to uphold the prestige of the Crutch and Crutchette club, so she fractured her an¬kle and as a result will have about four weeks training on the little "hog and swing" dance. FORUM At the Forum meeting Monday night we decided to suspend the present assembly plans until later in the year. This action was taken because of the heavy debating schedule for' the near future. In fact, there is so much clashing to be done that two debates are scheduled for next week. Plans are well under way for the traditional Forum-Congress debates and the members are working hard for places on the school debate team. LETTERS FROM PHIL Some members of the faculty have received letters from Phillip Finkelstein, '27, who is attending college in Cincinnati. Phil is en¬joying his work and states that he is often reminded of his happy days at O. H. S. Ye Olde Holly Hop OUR PRINCIPAL A. M. Merrill, principal of Ogden high school, was born on a farm in Richmond, Utah. He was educated in some of America's leading schools, including Harvard, Stanford, University Chicago, University of Utah Oswego State normal school. and an interesting talker, Mr. Merrill is quite popular in education circles of the state. He has up one of the finest faculties Utah in his eight years as principal. Mr. Merrill is well liked by all his students and faculty and working very hard in order to g a suitable building in which to house his school. ON MISSIONS Harold Farr, '28, was honored a a farewell social in the Tenth ward last Friday prior to his leaving on, a mission in the Hawaiian islands January 17. Wendell "Lefty" Bramwell, Mer- Tribe and John Griffin all of the class of 1927, are also serving missions for the L. D. S. church. Lefty is in England, Merrill in Germany, and John in the Swiss-German mission. Clarence "Frog" Clark, '26, is in the Austria-Germany mission. CONGRESS Last Monday night we did some¬thing to benefit our debate for next meeting. We discussed refutation and I am sure all the senators and other girls that were there were helped in some way. Next week. we are going to have a debate. Four of our senators will, clash, and I think it will be an enjoyable de- We'll tell you what we did dur¬ing the Christmas holidays. We held a meeting at Senator Roberts house, and it happened to be a rather short meeting. After we had adjourned our hostess had a sur¬prise for us, and what fun we did have. It was just too bad for any senator, waiting list member, or others who were not there, for they missed a good time. Again, juniors, you are specially invited to our meetings. If you can't come all the time, come when you can. This does not mean that seniors are excluded. Come, all or any, next week, and hear a good debate.
