Show Bit controversy—business has Bbd; business has failed In that lti las no provided the things that business exists for. n oti.rr words, it ihould provide ft place for a man to work, wages lth Tprovldc a living, give him anr opportunity to express that whicih is within him through his labor, and to ftnd compensation for him nd amily through that effort. That is the business of business, and if take that as the business of business, I am forced to say that to III wy large extent, certainly to 10 or cert 20 per cent of the people today . . . it is a failure.—Willis Sutton, President N.

THE CONSTITUTION You nrc all invited to attend the constitutional oratorical contest district finals at Central Jr., Wednes-day, at 8 o'clock. The participants in the contest have all been ad Judged winners in their respective school and now they come together to select from their number a rep¬resentative for the state finals. The Salt Lake Tribune is sponsor of this annual nation-wide contest in our state. WELCOME, MRS. IRWIN At last Mrs. Irwin is back again feeling fine. BEWARE! Students, do not be misled by the radical school politicians who are endeavoring to persuade you to sup¬port the proposed amendment to institution. They are typical politicians using every method of persuasion that they know. You, students, have been the subjects of trickery. You will recall that the amendment to elect one student for evcrv forty or major fraction there¬of as a council member was passed around the school and ovei two ii hundred students signed this amendment. It was proposed that be taken upon this amend But t,hp amendment' has been invariably changed without the students' sanction! The amendment on our bulletin board now reads: "The student council shall consist of an elected council member for every thirty members or major fraction thereof ... So we see that the original amendment which was signed by the students has been mutilated at the discre¬tion of its instigators. It has been changed from one out of forty to one out of thirty. Therefore, the amendment that hangs on our bul¬letin board is invalid inasmuch as it is entirely new and inasmuch as it has not been signed by a single student of our school. —The Dagger. CHATTER AND CHAFF Charles Peterson had twelve dif¬ferent poses taken for the yearbook pictures and wasn't satisfied with any of them. Maybe he expected too much. Gee, but it's great to see our heroes walking through the halls again. We missed their manly ap-pearances when they were at the tournament. Virginia Oborn and Harriet Robison didn't miss them nuch, however. Eureka! Eugene Goddard and Russell Hoffman met a man that nearly lifted them off their feet the other day. It just goes to show that they're not used to big, strong he-men. It's a great life if you don't weaken—they've weakened! Big time Friday. Don't forget, Buy your tickets to see the queen and get in the; dance free. Max Clark is going as a sailor to give the women a chance to see him (partly) as other women all over the world. Dave Wangsgard says, "In view of Max's ability along certain lines he would make an ex-cellent sailor." Max will have his usual equipment too. Dorothy Knowlden and Geneva Farr. Which will be Queen? Take your choice. Flip a coin. Any advice that will help us choose will be appreciated. What ho, a fox. Let's go! Long and thorny is the path (down which thou must trip. And, although Russ is a stout fella, he is still a junior and that alone should be a warning to thee. Take care, Ruth, thou hadst best look before thou leapest. Alas poor Ruth, I knowed her good. Written, composed, and sung by one whose good name thou hast trampled in the mire. The squad competition last week was finally won by the Co. "A" squad under the command of Cor-poral John Evans. Members of the squad were James Hardman, Eskil Felt, Lloyd Baxter, Wilford Vander Kooi, Bob Kimball, Edward Cham¬bers and Tom Condie. The squad from Co. C, led by Corporal Robert Rushmer, was second by two points. The standing for the Legion cup at the end of the week: First band, 2nd Co. "A", 3rd Co. "C". The rifle team has just com¬pleted the second stage in the na¬tional R. O. T. C. match. The scores made so far indicate that we will be among the leaders in this match. At present we are ileading the scores made in the corps area match for the same 'stages by an even 50 points. If we keep this up—any team defeatn us will have to shoot. Ogden High School Notes March 25, 1931 Ruth Greaves, Editor. Two days more! Alumni-are you looming? We extend a special in¬hibition—you'll be more than welcome Everyone! Be at the Classicalia Friday night—with a lot of financial support. DOROTHY HAD "ENOUGH?" There are many students in school who will not upport Dorothy for queen because she had already had too many honors. In answer to this we offer the following: In 1929 and 1930 she was chosen by competent judges from a large field for leading parts in the school play and opera because of outstand¬ing talent and charm. Being chosen for such honors demands untiring work and sacrifice. Day in and day pout, Saturday Sunday, or when ever tne call came, Dorothy gave unselfishly of her time to bring honor to her school rather than to herself. Now, how has she fared with re¬spect to honors bestowed by the students? She has allowed herself to be nominated for the following honors within the power of the students to bestow: 1. Vice president of the student body. Secretary of student body. President of the Girls' Association. 4. Vice president of the senior class, and other offices. In every case, students, Dorothy was defeated by the student votes. Have you bestowed too many honors on her already? In every case, where she has come up before you, j she was defeated. Now comes your last chance to reward her with the highest honor within your power. Let it be a fitting reward for her unselfish efforts in your behalf. To whom would you give the trophy of victory: The lad who begs for victory from the sidelines or the football hero who takes the pounding of the battle for the sake of his school? We agree! Dorothy has had enough work. Let's reward her with the crown she so well deserves. Let's give her just one honor. BUY YOUR TICKETS. Three more days, then the big dance. All set? The chance to see and dance with the Queen. High's most beautiful and honored girl. Vote for her Thursday. Get your tickets now. The "spirited" clubs have pulled out of their lethargy and are sup¬porting the dance in grand fashion. The tickets are being sold like ice cream cones on the Fourth of July. As to the booths, they will rival any ever seen and will contain every¬thing you will want to make the dance complete. Everyone be there Friday. A good time is guaranteed to everyone. CONGRESS. Congress was called to order Mon¬day night by President Nelson. The minutes were read and approved. The order of the day was a debate on the proposed amendment to the Ogden High school constitution. Those who argued that the amend¬ment be adopted were Ruth White and Focine Liapis; those who opposed the adoption were Virginia True and Margaret Thomas. Inter¬esting points were brought up by both sides. After the debate the members participated in discussion which soon became so spirited that Something had to be done about it. So Congress then adjourned. CHATTER AND CHAFF. Ask Ernest Stiemle why he was perched on the window sill in Mrs Wade's room seventh period class and also why he couldn't get back. Ellis Cragun and John Cawley take a great delight in making people believe they can speak French very fluently and really un¬derstand each other. The Classicalia's going to be one wild affair; especially when the queen makes her appearance. The "squaws" and "braves" seemingly go "loco." Tomorrow's queen voting day. If you haven't purchased a ticket, do so tomorrow and vote for the "queen"—either Geneva or Dorothy. GREGG ARTISTS. The students of Ogden High haven't heard from us for some time but it is not because we haven't had anything to tell about, but because things are secrets right now. But just wait until we all; appear in—oh, well, just wait! —M. I. NEWCOMB'S KNIGHTS. The long silent voice has spoken and you hear the report of New- comb's Knights, the second period class of Room 300. Friday the elec¬tion of officers was held, the fol¬lowing being chosen: President— Dee Shepherd; vice president—Cal¬vert Bowman; secretary—Lowell Anderson. After a discussion of sev¬eral points of parliamentary law and several sales talks the class adjourned itself somewhat uncere-moniously at the summons of the assembly bell. MR. HANSON ILL. It seems as though our teachers are taking turns in being confined to their homes with the flu. Mr. Hanson is the victim this week and we certainly miss him, especially now that we're in the midst of our opera rehearsing. We wish him a speedy recovery. AN EXCELLENT BAND. The R. O. T. C. band has been sharing the pleasure of outdoor drilling with the three cadet com¬panies this week. We see a marked improvement in the marching of the band members and the cadets envy the progressive spirit which the band possesses. The band already has one hand on the beautiful cup which the American Legion has of¬fered and if the companies don't change suddenly they will be left out of the competition entirely. —Frisby. "CHIMES OF NORMANDY." Day by day in every way the opera is coming along toward per¬fection Mr. Robinson is with us every day now at 7:30 in the morning. We appreciate his ef¬forts and feel that every minute he gives toward our opera is very val¬uable. Students, do your part in co-operating with him. WELCOME, MR. STEWART Another teacher, Mr. Stewart, is back to school again after a siege 'of illness. We welcome him, also Ogden High School Notes March 26, 1931 RUTH GREAVES, EDITOR CLASSICALIA The pageant begins promptly at 9 o'clock tomorrow night. Be at the Berthana before 9 o'clock if you want a good chance to see the queen when she makes her appear¬ance. Tickets will be sold at the door. The admission is 50 cents a person. BIG NIGHT Tomorrow night is the big night. Students loosen all your stored-up energies for the fun riot. Every-thing goes. Everybody go. The hilarious climax of the school year's fun. Don't miss it. THE COUNTER ATTACK The article entitled "Beware" in Tuesday evening's paper and signed "The Dagger" might be humorous except that a few students may be¬lieve it as the truth. The chief argument of this article was that the amendment had been changed from its original content so that there would be one student representing every 30 in the class¬room instead of every 40. Instead of being an undesirable feature this is so much the better as the student body as a whole will be better rep¬resented. Students, be sure and vote for the amendment. The only persons who could possibly be against this meth-ad would be the club members who are now in Council and who would thus be taken out of office.—The Grindstone. CLASSICALIA BOOTHS There are going to be any num¬ber of ways to dispose of that cash you've been saving for the Classi¬calia for so long, so come prepared :o support the various booths. Let's aim to make this a real financial! success (it's bound to be a social success). Here's a list of the dIferent booths and their sponsors: Games of skill, We 13; soda water, Beta Zeta Tau, Phi Lambda Tau; serpentine, A. D. M.; side show, D. A. C.; candy, gum, etc., I-Wannan- O; caps, balloons, Zeta Phi Xi; pie and ic ecream, Carpe Diem, I-Wan- nan-O, and Stellae. There you are! You can eat any¬thing you want to eat, and do most anything you want to do. CHATTER AND CHAFF If the person who so slyly smug¬gled the smart remarks through the notes last Tuesday night will kind¬ly make himself known, the editor will challenge him to a duel tomor¬row night at the Classicalia! We wonder if Holley Arthur is aware of the fact that she's someone's sweet sorrow—and yet, it isn't: no secret after all for the guilty! person bears her initials on his right arm. Girls, don't stay away from the Klassy Kalia simply because you haven't a date. This is a dance for' "stags' as well as for anyone. Everyone should come! Parents, alumni, teachers and students. When you get to the Classicalia don't forget that everything that's important isn't on the main floor— come upstairs to some of the most original, unique and pleasing booths of all. GOOD LUCK In a recent boxing contest in Salt Lake City, Bob Parry, one of our own students, won the amateur championship in the 126 pound class. As a result of his exception¬al and unusual ability in his match¬es, he was chosen to represent the intermountain western states in Boston. Bob will depart for the east April 1. If victorious in the junior and enior competition in Bos¬ton, he wiY. be eligble for the Olym¬pic games in 1932. Make a name for yourself, Bobby boy. |
