We nom¬inated three new pledges for next year, and we were all very well satisfied with them. Miss Evans, our advisor, gave us a very inter¬esting talk on etiquet. It was decided that each member should take her turn bringing a standard drama and holding a dis-cussion with the rest of the club. We decided finally about our pic¬tures and pins, after which meeting was adjourned. —Mona Forsha. COUNCIL The regular Council meeting, held 1 February 12, was called to order by President Corry. The minutes were read and corrected. Ed Smith presented a plan for the coming Classicalia. It was his suggestion that the associated clubs in the school take over the respon¬sibility of the arrangements. After he had finished, a motion was made to the effect that the clubs undertake the full responsibility. The motion was passed. Mr. Bramwell of the social committee brought the following re¬quests for parties: Gamma Kappa on Saturday and Amigos del Mundo on Friday, February 22. Permis¬sion was granted.

CONGRESS Congress certainly is proud of her alumnae. Winifred McConnell and Virginia Nicolls are going on trip through California, repre¬senting Weber college. Both of these girls were former members of Congress, and the training they got in Congress must have helped them to be the debaters they are. Congress is rapidly formulating plans for the Congress-Forum de¬bate, so everyone get ready to see the girls display their ability. What will be left of Forum after the girls get through would be enough to put even Forum to shame. —Ruth Kraines. NOTES APPRECIATED Robert True, '28, now working as a clerk in the civil service in Washington, sent the following note: "Every time I go down to the library of congress, I get out the Ogden paper and pore over the notes 'till J almost know this year's school history as I did last. I get a wonderful joy out of reading about the people I know so well— and who are so far away." Thanks, Bob. We're glad we can keep you in touch with some¬thing you like. Tigers Favored In Weber Court Event Capacity Crowd Expected When Polished Fives Battle at County Gymnasium; Thorne Makes Changes In Lineup; Davis Meets Bear River By AL WARDEN Standard-Examiner Sports Editor. ALWAYS a game of popular fancy, the second contest of the Ogden-Weber series will be played on the Weber High court at 7:30 o 'clock tonight. The Tigers are heavy favorites to win, but the determined fight, which is always characteris¬tic in Weber-Ogden events, may carry the Warriors through to their fourth consecutive court triumph over Ogden in two seasons of play. Dick Thorne's athletes have a habit of upsetting the dope at a time when it is least expected. Some weeks ago they trailed the Tigers for 38 minutes of a 40-period en¬counter, yet came through with a marvelous victory. A two- minute spurt net¬ted them seven points and a 2 7 to 2fr edge over the "Orange Streaks." The recent vic¬tory of the War¬riors is the only triumph the Weberites have listed ill league compe¬tition. It hap¬pens to be the only defeat chalked up against the Tigers also. Weber will have the advantage tonight of playing the final game of the city series on her home court. Tlie Dick Thorne machine has playod some sensational ball at home and is after another triumph before closing the season. They hope to register this victory at tlie ex¬pense of the Tigers. OUT TO WIN Ogden is determined to win. The Tigers are leading the league and hope to add another game in the win column this evening. "We anticipate one of the hard¬est games of the season," said Coach Dixon Kapple of the Tigers today. "Weber always gives our team a battle and tonight's game should be no ex¬ception. I look for a close affair." The "Orange Streaks" will open the flareup with Greaves and Har¬bertson at for¬wards and "Slim" Hales at center. Stone and Chambers, two of the best guards of the division, will be in togs on the guard line. Coach Kapple may use some of his reserves if the occasion arises. Coach Thorne at Weber has made a number of changes in his lineup. Van Kampen and Barker are down to start at the guard line with either W. Taylor of Hunter at center. McEntyre and Chandler are mentioned as the starting for¬wards. Lindsay, one of the Weber stars, will be out of the lineup. He is suf¬fering with boils. CLASSY performer Van Kampen played a sensational game against Box Elder recent¬ly and undoubtedly has replaced Richardson. Van Kampen plays a splendid brand of ball and is count¬ed on as one of the Warrior aces tonight. The Weber county gymnasium undoubtedly will be packed to the rafters for this battle. Davis journeys to Bear River for the other league encounter tonight The Bears are out to trounce the Kaysville five. Jack Croft hopes to turn back the Bears and thereby remain in the race for the championship. The Kaysville aggregation meets Og¬den next week in another crucial battle. At tlfis writing Ogden and Da¬vis loom as the favorites to com¬pete in the state series at Salt Lake early in March. FEBRUARY 15, 1929 "SWEETHEARTS" TRYOUTS Owing to the fact that so many have signified their desire to try- out for the principal parts for the opera "Sweethearts," and ow¬ing to a limited number of available scores, the final tryouts have been postponed from Friday to Monday. This will give a greater number of students an opportunity to study the parts and therefore be ade¬quately prepared for the parts they desire. If you happen to be near the music room next Monday after school, don't think that he Met¬ropolitan opera chorus has aero- planed to Ogden; it will be merely the tryouts for "Sweethearts" in progress. ASSEMBLY This afternoon an assembly was given to us, sponsored by the girls I of the Zeta Phi Xi. The girls have | I always looked peppy and charming to us, and now we appreciate them even more. The program was just as interesting and snappy as they j have always looked in their clever i uniforms. Gay Wangsgard gave a charming reading. This is the first time wt, have heard her, but we would like i to hear her more often. Our ever popular Blanche Heed gave us a song, and was encored as usual. Really, the girl has talent! Mrs. Grix is very well known in this city, and her talent is recognized. Mar-jorie Faris and Guinevere Hess played a piano duet for us. It seems we have more genius in this school than we suspected! And now our only prayer to Keith is that we have another assembly as good as this very soon. —K. C. PHI LAMBDA TAU If you have seen a bunch of scared looking girls around the halls recently you can bet your hat I that they have been talking to Colonel Cunningham. You know, as target practice is our chosen sport, we requested the colonel to come up and talk to us about guns. He got lost in the lower hall. Audrey happened to see him looking distracted and ap-parently seeking something. As he had a gun and a dog she concluded that he was out for game. After a brief interview with Audrey he »vas I finally rescued and dispatched to our meeting. Florence has been looking for the " bull's-eye'' lately. She hasn't succeeded so far so we've decided i to help her find it tonight. Watch out for our party! —Helen Hupke. FEBRUARY 17, 1929.
