It was a grand combat and the enthusiasm of J the audience ran high. The score 1 was 51-13 over Box Elder. The boys ( should be complimented on their ( fine playing, and the student body ( on its wonderful support. Let's see ? as much enthusiasm at the following games. ' WE THIRTEEN Mr. Bingham presided for the last time at the "We Thirteen" meeting. After the opening formalities, we proceeded to elect officers for the! coming semester. Mr. Reeves won i over Mr. Carr for president, by a! head. In other words, when the voting was tied, Mr. Reeves won by the flip of a coin. Mr. Carr was E then given the vice president's job, i which requires little brains and no ' work. Mr. Bassett was re-elected: secretary and Mr. Stone sergeant at arms. BETA ZETA TAU One reason why Ogden won the game by such a large margin Fri¬day night was that B. Z. T. was i there in full regalia to give the boys ' their whole-hearted ' support. The ': team probably didn't know what it was all about but we cheered loud enough to raise the dead with the help of Phi Lambda's megaphones. : After the game we had a heap big shindig at Kathleen's—that is, ev¬eryone brought something to eat and i kept its identity a secret. By some : miracle there were no duplicates and : we had a grand party. — Helen Parmley.

High School Learns Of Excellent Marks feb. 3, 1932 Former Students Doing Well At Wyoming University , (Ogden High School Notes) 11 It is extremely cheering to Ogden High school to receive the excellent i reports that have recently come ; concerning the scholastic standing : of our former students. Three of ' our outstanding girl students, Virginia True, Beth Lusty and Marga¬ret Milns, are making a mark of their own at the University of Wyo¬ming. We wish them the best of luck and hope that they continue ; to maintain their high standing. THE NEXT GAME This coming Friday another bas¬ketball game will be played with Bear River in Ogden's gym. Our last game was a great success, and we hope that this one will be as successful. Since this game will be . played at our own gym, all of the students should come and support the team to their highest degree. Bring your megaphones and cheer the team on to victory. ON THE SICK LIST Glen Hansen, instructor of mu¬sic, joined the sick list on Tues¬day and was absent from school. His place was filled by a former, teacher, Reed Gammell. Mrs. Irwin reported for a little while on Monday, but was forced to return home. We hope she will be with us soon. And speaking of Mrs. Irwin re¬minds us that Mrs. Irwin was made a grandmother on Thursday, Janu¬ary 28, by the birth of a beautiful girl to Lieut, and Mrs. George Coolidge at Monterey, Cal. Congratula¬tions. VOTE OF THANKS We wish to thank, publicly, I- Wannan-O for their enthusiastic support of the sale of the mega¬phones in assembly Friday. One good turn deserves another, pals, and we'll not be forgettin,' either. We also wish to express our grat¬itude to Mr. Connell and his stu¬dents who so willingly gave their time and energy to paint the mega¬phones, and to all others who par¬ticipated in furthering the sale. —Phi Lambda Tau. AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Aunt Jane: Will cadets be admitted to the cadet hop out of uniform, and if not, why not? —Too Dumb. Dear Too Dumb: Since the cadet hop is a military dance, it is necessary that all cadets wear uniforms to be in keeping with the affair. All cadets are required to do this, so do not try coming without your uniform. —Aunt Jane. Dear Aunt Jane: I am a senior, but, oh, what a senior! I am the one who wrote to you asking you about the fac¬ulty putting on a play. Aunt Jane, I am not very well known, not a bit popular, and have absolutely no influence. Therefore, you see, it would be useless for me to try to arouse enthusiasm about such a thing as this. Won't someone do it for me? There are a great num-i er of seniors, or even juniors, who :ould do this very nicely. Won't omeone please do it for me? —A Senior. Dear Senior: It simply cannot be done. While tudents feel at times that they are loing all the work, the fact is the eachers all have very heavy sched- iles and cannot possibly take on idditional work. We agree that a acuity play would be interesting. 3ut really, do you not see enough if teachers acting? —Aunt Jane. DISCLAIMER NOTICE I hereby wish to correct the mis- aken impression that I am that famous old servant, Little Edgar, y article the other night was neant only as a feeble attempt at jarody. The wise old sage still :eeps his identity a mystery. —Charles Wood. GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN "All right, clear the decks for ac- ,ion," came the command, and it vas immediately obeyed. The meth- ds of attack of the enemy were . )laced upon the board, and the battle was on. All had two weapons )f defense—pen and paper, but only i few possessed the important one —knowledge of correct use, and ;hese few alone were able to coun- ;er-attack. For the rest, the "Demons" sat there on the board grin¬ning at them as if to say, "So, you vise ones, you thought you'd put ne over? You thought you were jetting by on nothing and were! living the teacher the horse laugh? Zou forgot 'He who laughs last laughs best.' Too bad, but I've got ;he last laugh." Time passes, and desperation vercomes good judgment. A hand reaches for a book but is quickly withdrawn as the teacher glances about. The teacher resumes his work and an inaudible sigh of re¬lief escapes the hand's owner. The land was quicker than the eye,. The aeck is then exercised, but Johnny Hardworker does not write large mough, so no help from that quar¬ter. Time is almost up, so he turns to his paper and does what he can. The bell rings, and he hands in his paper without elation, for the "De¬mons" have beaten him; repent-! ance comes too late. Be prepared! —Sid Gordon. |
