To be conscious that you are ig¬norant is a great step to knowledge. —Disraeli. THE MINSTREL SHOW The minstrel show in the Lewis Junior auditorium Wednesday eve¬ning was a decided success and those who attended were well repaid for! their efforts. Ogden High certainly [ appreciates the efforts of the music1 department in their effort to make Ogden High a finer school. Their work is of high order and deserves 1 great commendation. Let's have more of such spirit from every branch. Our radio must be paid for. The only way to accomplish this is to attend school activities and help j to pay off the debt which is your1 duty to share in. Fine work, Mr. Hanson. DEBATING AND ORATORY The tryouts for the debating team; are 011 the way and the S. A. R. oratorical contest will come rather j soon. If you have never participated 1 1 in this form of activity, fellow stu¬dent. yours is the pleasure to initi- j ate that delightful experience. Do not let pass the splendid opportuni- \ ty to try out for one of these forms of oral achievement. Even though you have had no experience the time \ to start should be and is now. A great deal of improvement and sat- j isfaction will come to you if you make the team; also a great amount of help and improvement comes even though you may not make the team or win a prize. In debating to make the team is one thing; to prepare a good speech, to obtain the mental stimuli derived thereby is another. So no matter what your capacities are, fellow students, do not fail to take advantage of these splendid chances to improve your¬self. WILL TIGER EAT BEAR? When Tiger meets Bear Friday evening in Bear River City what will be the outcome? If you have any doubt as to the outcome go up into the gym and watch the team work out. All they need now is a little co-operation from the sixth man and 110 Bear at Bear River or any¬where else can keep the Tiger fr-m , coming out 011 the long end of the score. And when you get there, gang, don't forget to exercise that voice. Keep in a crowd and yell. Make Bear River aware that O. H. S. is not only the scrappiest bunch in the way of fighting but that our school spirit and sportsmanship is unexcelled. Remember your grand-stand courtesy: Yell at the right time; don't jeer; be quiet while fouls 1 are being pitched; be courteous to opponents; treat their property as you would have them treat yours. CHATTER AND CHAFF Don't be alarmed if there are a lot of people absent tomorrow. It mere¬ly shows that those who are walk¬ing to Bear River have got an early j start. Did you ever play "Ring around the bathtub"? It's a great game. I WANNAN O During the past few weeks I Wannan O has said little. But let that not perturb you. Great things are being done at our meetings. Mr. Smith gets raked over the coals; Rader beat the non-stop filibuster' two meetings ago; Howard favors We 13 tactics of enforcing rules. Stolid, conservative I Wannan O also has its digressions and its re¬unions. At present nothing seems to stand in the way to hinder us from making 1930 I Wannan O's banner year. Our meetings are of high instructive merit. We hold rig- ' idly to the path of duty and science; school activities are always upper¬most in our minds. Without a spirit of boastfulness we can say that ours is one club that does the things it says it will, at the right time, and at the right place. Juniors, when the next year's quota is filled next spring be on the alert to seek mem-bership in one of the school's fine clubs. If you are interested make your interest known to anyone you 1 see wearing the little question mark pin. INTELLIGENCE TEST We continue our intelligence test in order to secure bigger and better driftwood for the Royal Order of j O. H. S. Dead Timber. Where is a part of the Cunningham immunending a most delightful so- journ under the auspices of a vet¬erinarian? Why do they call Chuck Hetzel half pint? Who is Hank four, and who calls him that? What is a door or two in Bob Parks' life? Who will be queen at the Classicalia in March? Aw, now girls we didn't want to start a fight. FAMOUS BROTHERS The bonds of fraternal love and j friendship are decidedly marked in Ogden. Two of our best known and likewise best liked pairs of brothers I are Les and Hugh Mayer. Les is about it when athletics are con¬cerned. He participates in three lines. He is major In the First bat¬talion and is a senior class repre-sentative. Hugh was captain of the football team. He is colonel of the R. O. T. C. The two brothers are the sons of "Sarge" Mayer, the quartermaster of the drill unit. To¬morrow nigkt the Foley brothers will be compared and reviewed. CONCERNING A BUS Tomorrow is the game with Bear River. A bus is being chartered and further details may be obtained from the advisory teachers. The trip to Bear River is rather long, but if there is a possible chance you should take advantage of it and be there. For those who can obtain private cars the roads are in fairly good condition. There is usually a rather reckless spirit accompanying games, and we wish to take this opportunity to urge you to be cautious while driving.

BIG GAME TONIGHT Tonight we play the critical game of the season. At the last game there were a great number who doubted the true worth of the play¬ing of our team. They thought that it was merely a burst which cannot continue. We know that those per¬sons are walking around in a fog. Our team is good. They fight; they play fair; they play well. If they win they deserve it. If they don't, j they still deserve our support and commendation for their fight against such great odds as have hampered them this year. So win or lose our first consideration is the team. We must give them our hearty backing and will all get to Bear River City somehow. Build up that excellent spirit you showed a week ago. Then you showed the real stuff. Make the Tiger smile, Ogden High. FROM TEAM TO YOU Students: At the game against Weber you supported us to the final whistle. You're backing played a huge part in the building up of the spirit which was in good part re¬sponsible for our success last Thurs-day. We appreciate your co-opera¬tion and want to take advantage of the Notes to thank all of you. If you will support us tonight, we feel that victory will be ours. Win or lose we're going out there to give everything we've got. We will play to the last whistle—play the best game we are capable of playing. Give us your support, O. H. S. —The Basketball Team. MUST BE ADJUSTMENT During the past year a number of our student body activities have been held on week nights. The par¬ticipants, the school, and above all the patrons and parents seem di¬vided on the advisability of carrying on student body activities before Friday evenings. The discussion bases itself on the arguments: Can student body ac¬tivities be conscientiously attended and supported if they are to be pre¬sented and given on school nights? Some say that it is entirely possible for a student to get his lessons, work, give time to his club activities and to other duties, and. also sup¬port activities given on school nights. If that is possible we have yet to see the student who can do it. Not criticizing, we merely suggest that some attempt should be made to ob¬tain a little more concord between academic and extra curricular work. —The Editor. AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Aunt Jane: We are two juniors who have been very interested in getting into one of the clubs of the school. We are girls but girls and boys alike would be very interested. It seems to be practically impossible to get into the student body organizations unless you are especially well known or have had a friend to obtain mem¬bership, for you. Could you inform us when the different clubs take in members and how they select them? Are tryouts or some form of compe¬tition used in any of the clubs? —Interested. Dear Juniors: To a great number of students the clubs seem a very inaccessible thing. Membership seems to be restricted to a few who are lucky. But instead of it being difficult, it is quite the contrary: any student who will make himself or herself excel in some way can usually make it pos¬sible to obtain membership in one or more of the fifteen or so clubs in the student body. Three clubs have competitive re¬quirements, Forum, Congress, and the new Dramatic club. Attend one of their meetings some evening at seven-thirty o'clock on Mondays. They are glad to receive interested students. The other clubs, more or less, are accessible. If you are in¬ terested interview Mrs. Irwin or one of the advisors or members of the clubs. They will be glad to tell you about their organization. It is quite easy to have your name put up m a club. The test as to your desir¬ability comes when the club votes on you. Then, too, if you do things, if you are full of initiative, organ¬ize a good club of your own. Eut be sure it will be a good- one. There are too many poor ones that have been organized in such a way that have passed into history. We 13, the H. C. club, and others are exam¬ples of newly organized but very successful clubs. The older clubs, like Carpe Diem and I Wannan O are proof of their own excellence by their history and length of existence. By all means find out about clubs, Juniors. You will be well repaid. —Aunt Jane. CHATTER AND CHAFF Jimmie DeVine is the bearded bard this year. The only thing that hinders him is that he has a hard time getting bearded. This is a good one. Scene, the Deegan home in a year or two. "Oh, Rader," sobbed Iras, "I had baked a lovely cake, and I put it on the back porch for the frosting to cool and the d-dog a-ate it." "Well, don't cry about it, sweetheart," he con¬soled, patting the pretty flushed cheek. "I know a man who will give us another dog." There are a number of fellows around this school who seem to be in doubt as to the correct pronuncia¬tion of the name of the German poet Goethe. If they will kindly ask Hod or Grant, the information will be imparted free and with a great deal of pleasure and courtesy. Any person able to tell how to get a good mark in chemistry with¬out passing a formula test please see any student who has a C plus. Ed swears that to pass a formula test means you are eligible to get a good mark. He also swears because so many students don't get good marks. What can you do with a man like that? "A REAL PEP CLUB" Did you know there is going to be a peppy new club organized in O. H. S.? Well, there is and it's sure go¬ing to be a real club—no fooling. It isn't going to be a social club or anything like that. It's going to be something new and we're going to show the students there can be plenty of pep in old Ogden High. The constitution has been passed on and it will be only a matter of a few days before we start the new "peppy club." Miss Stohl is thrilled to death over it (she knows all about it). Ask her or Foss Heiner, they might give you a hint, but it's doubt¬ful. Here's its name, "D—A—C" Can you figure it out? Say, boy! Watch us go.—S. O. CARPE DIEM Meeting was called to order by President Budge. The minutes were read and approved. The final plans for our skiing par¬ty—for ladies only—may be another time, boys. "Watch us when our foot slips." After we had discussed the pledg¬ing of another junior girl, meeting adjourned.—Charlene Scowcroft. ASSEMBLY TREAT Miss Lena Madesin Phillips, law¬yer, author, traveler, publicist and lecturer, gave us a most interesting travelog at Thursday's assembly. The visitor gave us most interesting glimpses of life abroad, and in-jected considerable humor into her talk. The only trouble with her ad¬dress was that Miss Phillips took us over on a big ocean liner, then made us swim back. MINSTREL SHOW Once more the Ogden High school enjoyed the results of Mr. Hanson's teaching and the hard work of the music department. Many have com¬plimented our new teacher and those who took part in the production. We certainly are proud of them. The wonderful success achieved in this undertaking has caused us to begin looking forward all the more to the biggest of all productions given by the music department, the opera. We are sure to have an opera even more successful than that wonderful production of last year, "Sweet¬hearts." COUNCIL The Council meeting was called to order by President Stewart. The minutes were read and approved. By a motion, the first and third prox¬ies were accepted. Beta Zeta Tau and "We 13" were granted parties for February first.

OGDEN", Utah, Feb. 1.—(Special) k.-—ogden high school held a prac- 11 tice debate Thursday afternoon it with the West high debaters nf Salt Lake. The question was the n state question which resulted in a . spirited contest. Ogden expects to' l have more practice debates during !e the year. Minstrel Show Ready. OGDEN, Utah, Feb.. 1 — (Special) d I —Glen Hansen, musical director of a Ogden high school, will present his glee club Sunday in a minstrel show at the State Industrial school. The minstrels gave their premie1' ! performance at Lewis junior high ,e school Thursday evening. PRAISE FOR KAPPLE [t Hard luck has trailed Dixon Kapple pie, mentor at the Ogden High lair )e for the last two seasons, and espe- ;0 cially during the present basketball )e campaign, but misfortune fails to dampen the spirits of the veteran coach. 3f Just before the close of the football season last fall, Kapple lost the d services of Doxey Stone, one ol the it best basketball guards developed in .y years in Ogden. Stone incidentally t- was the captain-elect of the cage team. n This injury forced Stone from; competition for the season. Junior Pantone followed in Stone's foot-steps as captain. He played re¬markably well—but the semester iy rule made him ineligible—after the -e recent Weber game. Prom the standpoint of cage pros- 5r pects Kapple was not considered in Jr the race at all before the campaign got under way. r. But from the way the revamped [g "Orange Streaks" have been step-1 )ing of late, and from the sensa-j iional and amazing support of the students, they have stepped up un- j til they are now very much in the [(j race. Dixon Kapple has always been! ie considered by this writer as one of Lp. the premier court coaches of Utah, His team of 1930 is a typical Kap- pie coached machine. JL l_ Athletic fans and critics are al- ls ways quick to criticize teams, but [e few step forward to extend praise when it is merited. Dick Kapple is worthy of all the commendation that Ogdenites car bestow upon him. Support such as s is now offered by the students of ,e Ogden should go a long way to re- vive that famous -"Orange Streak" ie spirit of years ago.
