Alphabet Becomes Important Matter May 4, 1932 Students Due To Receive their Report Cards This Week (Ogden High School Notes.) 1 Aha! The final week of the term so greets you. This week tells the tale and some of us shiver to think -of the tales it will tell. When cer- 4 tain numbers of our much used alphabet are put down they can mean several things. The first five letters hold the , most regard, that is in my estima- tion. Of course I always like to get 1 the first one, but then one must work to do so. This is the last week to make up any work which you might have j forgotten, or maybe when the as¬signment was given you were asleep or else talking to your neighbor across the aisle, or sumpin'. If you want to get some of the ! first two marks of the alphabet ( have all your work in, be prepared henceforth, smile at your teacher, bring her apples, do anything to take her mind off giving hard tests. But if you do have a test, well, make the best of it. Hope you getA's. —Janet Garnor. great Question Will Ogden High again shine Monday night? No doubt this very question has crept into the minds of a good many worthy students throughout Ogden High. The answer to this question depends not only on the basketball team but on the student body as a whole. We positively, have to give the team our whole-hearted sup¬port; each and every one of us has got to co-operate, and combine into one, for this our last, our most thrilling ,our most important game of the year—Ogden vs. Weber. Re¬member! The manner in which we: support the team Monday night may be the determining factor as to the j results. If we want victory, if we j want state honors, if we want to! keep our school on top, distinguish- !; ed from the rest, then we must have j you, and you, and you, there—Monday night. —Roy Critchlow. the let-down Perhaps your attention has been attracted by cartoon on the east bulletin board pertaining to report cards. How truly it presents the feelings of many of us poor strug¬gling students. For a week before the dreaded day on which we re¬ceive those harmless looking pieces of pasteboard which have the ap-pearance of a cherub and the ef- j feet of a bomb, we do our best to please dear teacher, but shake in our shoes every time he looks our way. For a week before this event¬ful day our lights burn far into the night while we are trying to cram some knowledge into our heads. For ;j a week before this day which causes j such havoc in our homes we enter jour classrooms with trepidation at j the thought of final tests. The day!! finally arrives when we receive our ' report cards and see the worst. We j take the longest route home in an attempt to put off the fatal hour; ij we do our best to get dad in a good humor; we wait' until he is busy on some business problem and then, if we consider this the best moment, .j we ask him to sign on the dotted ! line and if (as it is very seldom hap- 1 pening) he is so uninterested that he signs without looking at the card -oh joy! Our feelings have no bounds! What could be sweeter? i —Helen Parmley. for queen We nominate for Classicalia queen: jl Elaine Stevens, because she has the swellest tan; because she thinks t "Carey" is a nice name; because she never works too hard, and because : she never chews gum (much). MaLou Dobbs; because she has a way with men (take Dale Anderson for example); because she never buys shoes that are too small for ' her; and because she doesn't want : to be an English teacher, j Elpha Morse, because she edits : thesehere notes; because she doesn't ' preserve her school girl complexion in alcohol, and best of all, she never writes poetry. CONGRESS C—onvened Monday evening by force of habit (or lack of excuse). O—rder the latest wonder of the world; N—othing much, but we called it business. G—irls discussing yearbook pic¬tures, in keeping, of course with the times. R—eformation in regard to debat¬ing and attendance. E—ach member to present a vic¬tim (junior preferred) at next meeting. S—uch and such booked for fu¬ture presentation. S—ilence, indirectly brought about by adjournment. —Helen Lindquist, Reporter. ARTICLES ON CLEANLINESS All students who desire some, ex¬perience in writing and perhaps some reward for their efforts should write some article on cleanliness. The Cleanliness Institute of New York is looking for the best orig¬inal articles editorials, verses, pho¬tographs and drawings on the sub¬ject of cleanliness, prepared by high school students and appearing in high school publications during the current semester, February to June, 1932. Ten dollars will be paid to each author or artist whose work is accepted by Cleanliness insti-tute. These articles should deal with the general subject of cleanli¬ness as applied to high school stu-dents. WORD OF EXPLANATION As we cautiously approached "Babs" Lindquist we popped the question. No, it wasn't a proposal. Upon hearing her reply we left the I scene of action. j Several times we repeated this and j finally to our relief we were alone, ; luckily, for our faces resembled young beets. Perhaps you are wondering what this is all about. Well, I'll tell you —Roy and I are reporters. Our duty is to go around and ask var- ous students questions. If you care to see an illustration, ask for "The Spectator." It can be obtained at; the library. Furthermore, do not be surprised if we suddenly confront you and ask you a question. Bon't be caught unaware. If you are, think fast and you can incriminate yourself. You may be next. Well, we'll be asking yuh! —H. L. and R. C. OUR CLUB COMMITTEE Although the public schools were: originally organized as a means of! j mental culture, they now recognize j (three fundamental phases of edu¬cation, physical, moral, and mental.! I At Ogden High, our school clubs! play an important part in the edu¬cational system, for the goal of ev¬ery club is to develop and main¬tain the moral and physical standards of its members. But in order! that social activities might not con-! jflipt with academic advancement, and that scholarship in club mem¬bers be encouraged, the club com¬mittee, under the guidance of Mrs. Irwin, has been established. Upon its organization, each club! must present to the committee its' constitution, purpose, and names of officers and advisors. If these are! accepted the club is recommended toi council. Each club is required to , present to the committee its term and semester reports, which include , the grades of members and average scholastic standings of members be¬longing to clubs. Certain requirements upon club members are made by the commit- , tee. Any student belonging to one club must have passing grades (C or above), and any student belonging to two clubs must have recommend¬ing grades (B or above). No student is allowed to belong to more! than two clubs. These requirements i Progress Attained By School Editors May 7, 1932 Evening Hours Devoted To Preparing Material For Publication (Ogden High School Notes) Seven-thirty. The lights going full blast. Many figures intently writ¬ing, writing, writing. Another page done. Someone sighs. Relief. Through every sound and silence the metallic click, click, click of the typewriter t'aps as steadily as fate— or time. "Now what in the world does this mean?" a voice mutters suddenly. A conclave. Well, that's settled! A pause. "Say, here's an idea, about the cover—." Sugges¬tions pour in from all sides. Mur¬murs, mutters, finally a sorry de¬cision. "That's fine, only—." And another would-be genius is nipped in the bud; But at last it is de¬cided and worked, on. All the things a yearbook cover should be— attractive, suitable and tasteful. Heaved from the very soles of the feet come satisfied breaths of re¬lief. The staff is agreed! A few more nights of hurried labor and half of the yearbook is ready for the printers. Then two nights a week for some time longer and all the remaining part will be waiting for the thundering press. May you finish it soon! — Mar- jorie Wood. ASSEMBLY REPORT Friday's assembly proved to be one of that long awaited kind without a main speaker. The orchestra and glee clubs, under the direction of Mr. Hansen, presented several num¬bers. Dell Towers sang, "I Hear You Calling Me," and Drew Peterson played a saxaphone solo, "La Golin- drina." Walter Hoyt presented an original selection on the origin of "The Star Spangled Banner." Law¬rence Sommerville, the winner of the constitutional contest, gave his talk "Daniel Webster, the Defender of the Constitution." Members of the school board were introduced. Prin¬cipals of the Ogden schools were present, and we hope they enjoyed being with us as much as we en¬joyed having them. Miss Mealiff entertained the vis¬itors at a delightful luncheon in the cafeteria. Mr. Wintle, of Lewis Junior, visited, especially, the Eng¬lish and mathematics departments and was very pleased with the work of the students. He remarked that the students "seem alive, wide-awake and happy." Mr. Junk, of South Washington Junior, stated that "the assembly was exceptionally good" and the "participants on the pro¬gram showed remarkable ability." Miss Peirce, of North Washington Junior, enjoyed the visit immensely and thought the assembly was mar¬velous. Mr. Adams, of Central Junior, thinks the "students are to be congratulated on the order in classrooms and the assembly," also that "Mr. Hansen is to be com¬mended for the splendid musical numbers." Our most cordial wel¬come is extended to you at all times. We hope you enjoyed being here its much as we enjoyed having you.

He oft does raise his hand as if with care. ; Up to the bridge of his most val¬ued nose In what would seem to be Si thoughtful pose. The jokers love to think up ; funny sayings, But he is no attention to it pay¬ing.
