Show HONOR IS WON BY TEACHER OF OGDEN SCHOOL Miss Jessie Schofield has been se¬lected by the National Recreation association as one of the forty young men and women graduates of Amer¬ican colleges and universities to at¬tend the National Recreation school in New York next autumn. Prom the candidates who qualify in schol¬astic and potential leadership abil¬ity the association admits this lim¬ited number each year to receive professional training in community recreation. Miss Schofield is the first person from Utah to receive this honor. Miss Schofield is at present the physical education director at Ogden High school. She was graduat¬ed from the University of Utah in 1928, with a major in physical edu¬cation. During her senior year she was president of the Women's Ath¬letic association, and won the Phi Delta Pi loving cup as the best all- round senior girl. The following year she held a teaching fellowship at the university, supervising physi-cal education in the Stewart train¬ing school, and doing post graduate work. For the past six summers she has been a member of the Salt Lake City recreation department as a director of one of Salt Lake's leading playgrounds. She has been active in church recreation both in Ogden and Salt Lake. She has made her home with Mr. and Mrs. Philip Warren Knisely in 2432 Van Buren avenue for the past three years while teaching in Og¬den. j The course at the National Recre¬ation school is for one year. Prac¬tice and demonstration rather than theory comprises its method. Ath¬letics, social recreation, community music, community drama, dramatics, handcraft, folk dancing, nature ; study, camping, boys' and girls' clubs, home recreation, community centers, problems of finance and publicity and school recreation are some of the principal subjects m the curriculum. The athletic fields and lake of Central park and the gymnasium and swimming pool of the Heckscher building where the school meets are used by the students throughout the course. The National Recreation associa¬tion, which established the school, was founded in 1906 by Theodore Roosevelt, Luther Halsey Gulick, Jane Addams, Henry S. Curtis and other leaders in the recreation movement in the United States. Dr. John H. Finley of the New York Times is chairman of the graduate school at present. High School Holds First Vote Tuesday May 2, 1932 Plenty of Candidates Ap¬pear For Student Body Offices Ogden High School Notes Elpha Morse, Editor The primary elections for student body officers will be held Tuesday. With six capable and popular stu-dents up for each office it will be hard to select the final candidates. We are sure that the ones who fin¬ally win out will meet the approval of the entire student body, and the final race will be a hot one. May the best candidates win. CAMPAIGN CALL We want: Dale (Roscoe) Anderson for presi¬dent because: He has the stuff presidents are made of. He is a loyal supporter of all school activi¬ties. He is wide awake, intelligent and capable. Hazel Lewis for vice president be¬cause: She held this office at Lewis last year. She is also capable and would make a fine running mate for Dale. Bill Thompson for secretary be¬cause: He promises to make bet¬ter and funnier council reports, which are very much needed because hardly anyone reads the present re¬ports because they are dry and un-interesting. Because he claims he is the people's choice.—Sammy Six¬teen. ADVENTURE Every day and any day one maj find adventure if he seeks for it. As you walk down the sidewalk of life fill each day to capacity with excitement and happiness. In order to do this merely look for these things and they will come. Of course, a mere beckon will not lure adventure or it would not be ad¬venture. You must seek it in its haunts. For you adventure may be any¬where. Adventure for the weak and adventure for the strong. Which is yours? Will you look for it in the subways or on elevated railways? Will it be at the untrodden, forbid-den or in the whirl of life? Will your power rely upon the earth, the ground, or upon the spiritual? Seek and you shall find as did Dallas Sharp, "There's one more river; there's one more river to cross." ORATORICAL CONTEST Wilbur Monteith and William Alsup, under the splendid direction of Mrs. Chambers, have been chosen as representatives of Ogden High school in the Lewis oratorical con¬test. This afternoon they will compete with Box Elder, Davis and Weber. Maude Mae Babcock from the University of Utah will be the judge. ONE-ACT PLAYS The group of one-act plays pre¬sented by the dramatic art classes and sponsored by the senior class proved splendid. How could they help but be with these notables in them: Hermoine Tracy, Marjory Wood, Lucy McNeil, Bob Bingham, Frank Brim, Meyer Lutzker, Hermese Broadbent, Lowell James, Hel-en Brophy, Mary Walker, Marybeth Early and Ellen Holmgren? They were very ably directed by Dorothy Eklund, Burton Benowitz, and Elpha Morse. There is only one regret to cloud the success of the play. That was the discourteousness of some high school students while the plays were in session. ROTARY CLUB BOOKS At the beginning of this school year, the Rotary club of Ogden furn¬ished needy students of O. H. S. with i books. We are very grateful for this I service and unanimously offer this iclub a vote of very hearty thanks. As the end of the school year ap¬proaches and the books become no longer needed by their present hold¬ers, we will return them to the of¬fice so that they can be used next year.
