Af¬ter the first half the Tigers had things pretty much their own way, and humbled the Bears with ease. Coach Walker of Bear River was to spring a few surprises, but Mr. Kapple's six-man team is the best ycL Now we know what all the talk about the "sixth man" means. The "seventh man" was there 100 per cent and It looked as thoiu'h the "old spirit" wasn't so oli! after all. The faculty was well n pi' 51-nted, and "Sarge" Holloway brought his little "Cadet hopper” along to see the big doings, t0. The hand players certainly .showed what they are made of.

Miss Char¬lene Scowcroft offered the beauti¬ful Hungarian Rhapsody and Miss Jeanette Morrell gave some selec¬tion from Nize Baby, which were delightful. Dr. Lind of Weber col¬lege then cave us a most interest¬ing talk oil geology. We were awed I'V his casual discussion of many millions of years. He told us of the formations in our own canyons and brought specimens, of many of the rocks. We are all better able to appreciate, now, our natural surroundings and we wish to thank Dr. Lind again for his most interesting talk. After our social hour, which of course was enjoyable and fruitful (especially the salad) the meeting was adjourned. GAMMA KAPPA Gamma Kappa had its weekly meeting Thursday afternoon. The student in charge of the program presented, as the speaker, Past Commander Shupe of the Ameri¬can Legion. He gave us a vivid word picture of France and England, and of some of the experi¬ences he had there. It was enter-taining as well as instructive and certainly enjoyed by all. After Mr. Shupe's talk the minutes for the previous week were read, and then the discussion proceeded to our Valentine party.

After this the emblem commit¬tee reported and after much dis¬cussion, it was decided that we have pins and not sweaters. Watch for these, students—they're hot. It was decided that the emblem for both this year and our chapter next year would be the same. Af¬ter a committee had been appoint¬ed to work out the designs for our pins, the meeting adjourned. —Grant Morse. FEBRUARY 13, 1929. OHS NEWS Stan Spencer ‘28 Think not that thy word and thine alone must be right.—Sopho¬cles. FIGHT—FIGHT—FIGHT Our game with Weber High next Friday will be replete with fight from start to finish. Anyone who doubts that doesn't know the cir¬cumstances of an Ogden-Weber basketball feud. Everything will be pointed by both schools toward the winning of this game. The Warriors have held a monop¬oly on the city championship since the 1927 season by virtue of hair- raising victories and last minute rallies. When these two teams do battle all the dope of league wins and losses is cast to the four winds and anything and everything that can, usually does happen. If there is any such thing as a crucial game, this has all the earmarks of being it. This time we are playing on the floor of the Red and Black in¬stitution and everybody must be there if we are going to keep on top. Bet "Wallop Weber" be our war cry ard "On You Orange Streaks" our song of battle. HOP COMING Only seven more shopping days in which to obtain that date for the cadet hop. The eve of Wash-ington's birthday is the time set for the big miiltary spectacle. The crack company is the best ever and primed to give us another wonderful exhibition. Get in touch with one of the ticket salesmen right away. DIRTY CORDS Johnnie Carver's dirty idea, the "dirty cords" contest, is rapidly coming to a climax. Dee Jackson, manager, announces that the judg¬ing will go off on schedule. This contest will mark the end of the slump in the laundry business; it will be a mighty close contest as XBflst. of the cords appefljag if the possessor had played Santa Claus and cleaned the soot from the chimney.

My Dear Mr. Merrill: I am writing to suggest that the students in your school who plan to enter Columbia college next September, be urged to apply some time between February 10 and April 15, if possible. An early applicant can receive more careful consideration than those who come later. He can be advised in ample time regarding any 'further steps which it may be necessary to take and he can also learn more prompt¬ly the probable decision upon his application. It is particularly desired that ap¬plications be filled early if there are a number of applicants from the same school. Fully qualified applicants will receive careful at¬tention even if they apply late, but early application is strongly rec¬ommended. We shall be glad to send appli¬cation blanks for applicants from your school if you will let us know how many will probably be need¬ed. Yours very truly, Adam Leroy Jones, Director. OPERA MANAGER WANTED There is need of another stage manager for the opera. Any stu¬dent interested in this position on the staff will please write a letter, stating his desire and experience. This letter is to be addressed to the general manager. All letters must be handed in and received on or before Friday, February 15, 1929. It is suggested that this matter be attended to as soon as possible. —Huber Earle, General Man¬ager. ONE MORE Did you see the newest member of Crutch and Crutchette club? June Johnson decided that since ice is slick, she would have a good ex¬cuse to appear with a spraiued an¬kle. Now she is practicing the "peg dance." Who'll be next on the membership list?

WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 13, 1929. Tigers Given Edge In Court Flareup Warriors Are Now One Up On Orange Streaks in City Title Race; Thorne Makes Changes in Lineup; Van Kampen to Perform in Guard Position. By AL WARDEN Standard-Examiner Sports Editor. TWO basketball teams, polished in finesse and ability, get together Friday night at the Weber High school gym¬nasium to battle it out for the "city championship." The Tigers of Ogden High, and the Warriors of Weber High will; furnish the menu and a capacity crowd will give the contest just enough color to make the event one of unusual merit. Coach Dick Thorne's Weber Warriors are one up on Dick Kapple's Orange Streaks. This came as the result of Weber's recent 27 to 26 decision over Og¬den in the Weber gymnasium. This defeat, in¬cidentally, is the only one chalked up against the Tigers in league competition this season. Another odd feature is that the victory is the only one recorded thus far by the Weberites. Thorne's ath¬letes are strug¬gling along with just one victory to their credit, but have yet to quit trying. A triumph Friday for Weber would cinch the city gonfalon for the Red and Black institution. A defeat would deadlock the two fives in so far as the city cham¬pionship is concerned. Ogden on the other hand is lead¬ing the teams in the Ogden di¬vision and stands out as a favorite to halt the capers of the fighting Warriors of Weber. The Tigers have shown marvelous ability since their defeat at the hands of Weber, yet they look upon the Friday contest as one of the crucial tilts of the year. Weber always offers Ogden plenty of com-petition and the Friday battle should be no exception. In the recent game on the Weber gymnasium floor the Tigers held a six-point lead with two minutes to play. It just required two minutes for the battling Weberites to turn defeat into victory. They counted the necessary seven points in that period of time and held the Tigers scoreless. That finish went down as a typ¬ical Weber-Ogden finish. Critics and basketball fans expect another thriller Friday, despite the many setbacks received by Weber in league play. Weber is out to stop "Slim" Hales, Ogden center. They believe that if this expert of the slippery court is held down in the scoring department that they have a fine chance to upset the dope. Coach Dixon Kapple will start Harbertson and Greaves at for¬wards with Hales at center. His two brilliant guards, Chambers and Stone, will get the call on the guard line. Read and Mayer may get a chance to break into the Tiger lineup before the final blast of the whistle. Coach Dick Thorne plans to make a number of shifts in his lineup. Van Kampen and Barker are slated to start the fray on the guard line with Chandler and McEntyre at forwards. Thorne was undecided today as to his pivot performer. W. Taylor or Hunter will get the assignment. The Weber High gymnasium is expected to be packed for this main attraction. Davis, holders of second place in the league race, battle Bear River on the Bear court Friday in thfe other league game. A victory for Davis and a defeat for Ogden would give the Kaysville five the leadership of the league. Davis and Ogden tangle here one week from Friday in a game that [is attracting unusual interest. The Weber-Ogden flareup will start at 7:3 0 p. m. Friday. Officials for the game will be named today. FEBRUARY 14, 1929 OHS NEWS Stan Spencer ‘28 Henceforth I ask not good fortune, I myself am good fortune. --Walt Whitman. WAKE UP! The cadet hop is only a week away.
