Show Sergeant s Work In R. O. T. C. Lauded Apr. 28, 1932 Army Equipment Found In Good Shape; Ac¬counts Excellent OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Robert Hetzel, Editor One phase of drill work about which little is known and yet one of the most commendable is the work of Sergeant Meyers in the R. O. T. C. office. This Was revealed in the annual audit of army equip¬ment in the school, which was taken recently. This inventory report was furnished in compliance with sec-tion II, circular No. 20; headquar¬ters, Ninth corps area, June. 13, 1927, and covers the period from April 15, 1931, to April 11, 1932. The following remarks on the re¬port were expressed in commenda¬tion: Accuracy, neatness, and ar¬rangement of records—excellent. Warehousing conditions and arrangement of stock—very good. Scope and thoroughness of au¬dit—100 per cent. Character of annual inventory —excellent. The inspector in these matters comes periodically to each unit in the area. Choosing any ten items of R. O. T. C. equipment for a test inventory, he found perfect balance in the following articles: Breeches, overseas caps, woolen coats, cra¬vats, leggins, condiment cans, leather belts, haversacks, run slings and swords. These are only ten of the sixty- six items in the inventory. Other interesting figures compiled are, eight spoons, 165,000 cartridges, one automatic rifle, one pair field glasses and 1700 collar ornaments. All of these facts and figures go to illustrate the fine work of Ser¬geant Meyers in the R. O. T. C. office and the splendid condition of his reports and inventories. PARKE PETTERSON.

Around this time of year, some stu¬dents begin to be slack in their studies, thinking that since there are only four weeks of school, there is no need to study any longer. This attitude should not be taken, no matter how great the tempta¬tion for, if you start to be slack, you are apt to stay that way. If you have done good work all the rest of the year, you really shouldn't ruin the entire year by doing poor work at the last. If you haven't done as well as you could the rest of the year, you should work ex¬ceedingly hard the last part of the year. Do not neglect your studies and you never regret it. THE EDITOR. IN EDITOR'S CHAIR David Camp, a former student of Ogden high, is now editor of the Occident, a magazine of the Uni-versity of California at Berkeley. It is only through constant and dili¬gent effort that he has worked his way to this position. When we see the accomplishments of some of our alumnus we should not sink into the depth of despair and say, "It's no use." FAY CARDON. ACTION REGRETTED It seems that the opera has been ! cancelled. It is too bad, as the leads j have come to school every morn¬ing at seven o'clock to practice, and they know their parts almost back¬wards. But there was still much to! be done, and the music department j has been worked hard this spring, so the opera is off. We certainly hate to miss such a sweet memory of school life, because it is things like this which recall our school days to us. JEANNETTE JOHNSON. THREE PLAYS Plays, and only ten cents for three. We will bet the titles will be as a big a surprise to you as to us. They will present themselves in a splendid fashion. Be there at the little theatre, eight-fifteen. Ogden Sends Group To Soloist Contest High School Musicians Take Part In Logan Competition Ogden High School Notes. Virginia Hunter, Editor. Six of our prominent band mem¬bers left Thursday afternoon for Logan to enter the solo contests of the state band contest at Utah State Agricultural college. Those enter¬ing were: Louis Bovero, flute; Lee Richards, French horn; Paul Gilgen, bassoon; Drew Peterson, saxophone; Bill Allen, clarinet; Francis Burton, drums. Our best wishes are with all of them, and we wish them all success. APPLICATION When spring comes along and hits us like it has this year, we find it especially hard to concentrate and finish our tasks. One question is: "Why concentrate and finish any¬thing?" The question has points in its favor, but sad as it may seem, we are probably to find out too soon the folly of such an idea. The soon-er you start a task, the sooner you have it finished, and the more sat¬isfaction you have, Don't you find it much more enjoyable to play after accomplishing a task than to play before? If only we could all make up our minds to settle down and get our studies off our minds and then play. THE EDITOR. COUNCIL Regular Council meeting was called to order by President Stone. The roll was called; the minutes were read and approved. Clubs granted parties were Carpe Diem and I-Wannan-O for Satur¬day, April, and also Carpe Diem for May 21. By motion the nomination assem¬bly was decided to be held on Wed¬nesday, April 27. It was moved and seconded that the money to pay for basketball awards should come from the stu-dent body fund. The motion was passed. Council then adjourned. EARL REEVE, Secretary. THREE PLAYS TONIGHT Prepare yourself for some real side-splitting laughs. Tonight the senior class is presenting three one- act plays in the Weber little theatre The plays include actors that will make the producers in Hollywood take notice. Here is your chance to leave some¬thing for the school this year as the money will be turned over to the senior class for making a present to the school. Do your part by sup¬porting these plays. (We are not asking you to attend these plays— but you will regret having missed them.) Think of it, three one-act plays for .the insignificant sum of tea cents.) THREE OGDEN PUPILS ATTAIN MUSIC AWARDS Pocatello Band Is First In Parade Division of Logan Contests LOGAN, April 30.—(AP)—Poca¬tello high school's entry v/on first place in the parade of bands here this afternoon—the feature event of the three-day program of musical competition among youths from Idaho and Utah.

Don's miss the fun. C. B. B. CONGRESS We came (although we almost didn't get there); we saw (it must have been eight for we had an "open Congress" debate on the municipal light company); we conquered (the three new members of Congress speaking—Ellen Glines, Katherine Skeen and Marie Bowhuis). But we're not Caesars—only sen¬ators, so we adjourned. HELEN LINDQUIST, Reporter. TO JUNIOR GIRLS This article should be of interest to junior girls who wish to go to college. Smith college for girls in Northampton, Mass., offers twenty- five $500 scholarships to freshmen students of distinction and prom¬ise. All girls interested in this scholarship should arrange their next year's program to suit the re-quirements of the college board ex¬aminations. Any junior girl who expects to go to college would do well to make this preparation, regardless of whether she wishes to try for one of these scholarships. One who pre¬pares for college board examinations is prepared for entrance in any ccollege. For further information apply to Mrs. Irwin. BARBARA KIMBALL.
