The cast has worked very hard on this difficult comedy but they are ready to show the public a superior production. The story is of a girl who is sup¬posed to be a social outcast on ac¬count of her age, actions, ways, etc. She changes things by announcing her engagement to an army officer whom she has never heard of. In order to make the bluff more real she writes a love letter to this of¬ficer and sends it through the mails. In eight months she announces the death of her supposed lover. She thinks that the plan has worked fine —but. You should see what happens. Under the able direction of' Miss Watkins the cast members have per¬fected their parts to such a fine de¬gree that the show is sure to make a hit. In order for the affair to be an ab¬solute success the house must be packed. The help of every one is needed. Bring someone with you tonight; enjoy yourself for one even- ing out of the year; join the crowd; com prepared to see the best show that has ever been produced by any school in Ogden! Fellows, get your dates and tickets; early for the T. N. T. dance. No stags admitted. Everyone must have a partner. —O-H-S— CONROY CHOSEN AS CAPTAIN 1923 GRID MACHINE At the annual football banquet which was held last week, Louis Conroy was elected captain for the 1923 football season, by a large majority vote. Captain Tommy Norton passed out small slips of paper for ballots. Tommy and coach Kapple counted the votes and found that Conroy was the choice of the team. A speech was called for from the newly elected captain who immedi¬ately proceeded to tell the fellows how he appreciated the appointment and what he would do for the game. He assured the boys that he would give football everything he had. With this kind of spirit in the captain the Ogden High school can rest assured that the 1923 football season will be a success. Why? Because Conroy has the goods! —O-H-S— Mrs. Coolidge: "Where was the Declaration of Independence signed?" Bill Cox: "On the bottom." T. N. T. DANCE The other day, rushing to class, I was stopped at the end of the hall by a large, crowd, composed of the male element of the school. This assem¬blage was blocking the passage. All seemed to be pushing in toward the center of the circle, as if in an effort to reach something. Accompanying the jostling was a good deal of noise, and some emphatic voices rising above the general hubub with "Gim¬me the next one," and, "Here's the dough." I, too, out of curiosity, joined the crowd. I finally managed to get far enough inside to discover the cause of the "party." One of, as I later found out, ten of the best looking girls in the school, was sell¬ing tickets for the T. N. T. dance to be held December 22. Of course I bought one, and as I did so, the girl told me, "You are just in time, for my tickets are almost gone. We are only selling three hundred, you know, and they're going like wild fire." Have you got yours? Tickets not on sale after Friday. Get that "pass" now!! ANNUAL ATHLETIC BANQUET GIVEN Board of Education Gives the Football Team Its Annual Feed One of the most important annual events of the year was held Tuesday evening of the last week—the Board of Education Banquet in honor of the members of the football team. Every one tries to make the squad in order that he can get in on the "big feed" at the end of the season. The banquet was prepared by the girls of the domestic science depart¬ment of the school under the direc¬tion of Miss Laura Marshall. The main credit for the cooking of the turkey, sweet potatoes, dressing, etc., goes to Mrs. Sprague. Superintendent Hopkins was the toastmaster. Speeches were given by Superintendent Hopkins, President J. H. Riley, Wade Johnson, Dr. E. I. Rich, members of the board of educa¬tion; Coach Dixon Kapple, Captain Tommy Norton, Principal A. M. Merrill, Willian Allison and Captain- elect, Louis Conroy. Captain Tommy Norton staggered the boys with a long well planned speech. "Tommy's" little talk was the hit of the evening, judging from the applause from the team. The following players were in at¬tendance : Captain Tommy Norton, Captain- elect Loius Conroy, Overton Zinn, Daryal Clark, Frank Sullivan, Charles Lockwood, Max Corey, Vern Beck, Elmore Smith, Bill Smith, Bill Cox, Clair Peterson, Robert Brady, Dan Cont. on page 2) GREETINGS FROM THE TIGER STAFF The long-looked-forward-to Christmas holidays are upon us, and in another week the doors of the old school house will close, while the erstwhile students make merry. There will be parties and celebrations of every sort to commemorate the occasion; and on Christmas eve much good hosiery will be hung in anticipation of a visit from Santa Claus. May all their hopes be realized, their joy be intensified and their di¬gestions be preserved, is the wish of the Tiger to its patrons. A great big "MERRY CHRISTMAS," and a hearty "HAPPY NEW YEAR." Merry Christmas! Happy New Year! |
