Show SUNDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 1933. Maurice Kennedy May Play Forward During Lengthy Cage Series Revell And Childs Slated To Bid For Center Post At Ogden High Ogden High school hoopsters, state champions in 1932, and runners-up in the Ogden division race last year loom as serious contenders for the 1934 state title. Opening practice it the Tiger lair vas staged last week. More than 35 candidates re¬ported for the initial workouts, Dick Kapple, coach, announces. Phil Revell, for¬mer Central Junior High ace, may per¬form at center for the Tigers during the new season, Revell has shown fine promise in early season play. Maurice Kennedy, center last sea¬son, and one of Utah's best scholas¬tic athletes, may be switched to a forward position during 1934, Coach Kapple states. Kennedy looks better than ever. Clyde Greenwell, guard of last (season, is back and is one of the two regulars reporting for the squad. Other members of the squad of 1933 back in suits are: Grant Jen¬sen, Jack Patterson, Merlin Wood¬land and John Kinnard. Childs, a fine center at Mount Fort last season, is also showing plenty of promise. "We are looking forward to another great season in basketball," said Coach Dick Kapple last night. "With more than 65 men out for the team the job to select 15 out¬standing players will soon be in force. "I have three fine centers in Ken¬nedy, Childs and Revell. At pres¬ent I expect to use Kennedy at for-ward and this will mean a wide oper battle between Revell and Child; for the center post. "Competition in the northern division will be hotter than ever this season. The new lineup which call for teams of this division to mee teams of the Cache league in singk games should add increased interest to our play."

Bugle Blasts Regarded As Excellent Method of Ousting Mental Cobwebs Day Dreams Take Flight When Piercing Notes Rend Air OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette. Editor Jack Bennett, Associate Editor "You've got to wake up! You've got to wake up! You've got to wake up and get busy!" That' is what the bugles say every morning at eight-twenty. When they say get busy they mean for you to forget about the night before—if you can—and to begin learning your daily sums and time tables. Of course, if you have already learned them, you can dream about Mary, and about the winning smile she generously be¬stows upon you when she sees you passing down the hall. But you had better keep one eye on the teacher, for if she catches you with that far away look in your eyes she might not understand and will probably give you cause for night-mares instead of dreams. Well, getting back to the bugle, I think their noise—I mean music —is very stimulating, especially if you happen to be passing by a bugler and receive a blast on your delicate ear drums that sets your blood racing and brings your thought's out of the clouds and back to normal. Yes, I believe that a bugle blast is an excellent cobweb remover, don't you?—Elva Miller. IT'S UP TO THE YOUTH It's up to us, the youth of this world, to make this universe better for democracy, int'ernational rela-tionships, national strength, and progression. For we bear the heart of civilization inasmuch as the so-cial, and educational problems of the world, and the responsibility of determining the conditions of the country in which we live will soon be placed upon us. Do we want war to destroy or re¬tard the fine culture which thousands of generations of our ances¬tors have built? Do we want our friends, our homes, and our modern conveniences destroyed and sunk in-to eternal oblivion by war which is a raging, devastating demon? Do we want to jealously watch other countries and be watched by them, in return like children over every! move we make? Do we want moral1 and educational standards demoral-i ized? and thus progression checked?! The answer to every question i waits for our answer; and now, when we are forming our character is the only time to make our de¬cision. So let us determine before any crisis occurs that we won't breed hate, or antagonism for other nations to aggravate possibilities of war; and, that we will proudly march along life's pathway helping others see the light, and doing our part to improve and develop a bet¬ter civilization, educationally, spir¬itually, and socially.—Emily Merrill. FAMILIAR ANNOYANCES A seat in a needed study hall. Much to accomplish and little time to do it in when your friend Bill comes up to learn the principles oi physics. He is easily dispensed with when some bright capable young scholar discovers that he is with¬out theme paper or pencil and has to be satisfied. It is very amusing to have your arm jerked when you are composing an English paper foi a fussy teacher, but to top it al some well-meaning lad in a gooc humor gets it into his head that you would like to play "poke the iceman" or have a friendly chat about nothing at all and gets his day spoiled when you refuse to join in the fun. The public address system in this school is a wonderful achievement when it works as it should, but usually Mr. Merrill has quite a time keeping a thunder storm out of the loud speakers. Furthermore I do hope that those ambitious young maidens above the library would soon learn how to dance. If they don't the school board is liable to have to pay for a new ceiling. Notwithstanding the quiet¬ness of the radiators on a cold morning (sarcasm), I would still prefer to spend my school hours wit'hin a quiet morgue so that I might collect my scattered thoughts; —Annoyed J. H. Imagine a president of one of our classes taking advantage of being president! When a motion was made to have the outgoing officers make speeches, Clyde Greenwell started with the parlimentarian!—Wuzzy. There is one little (?) boy around this school who has a rather high opinion of himself. He really thinks that he is the dream we saw walk¬ing, talking, etc. Won't someone please tell Lloyd Frederickson that dreams don't swing their hips, in walking—neither do they make so much noise when they talk—Snow¬ball. Look at that tri-motored plane. That's not a tri-motored plane; it has only one motor. Yeah, but it's trying pretty hard. Let's not go down-that path; it's too dark and lonesome. I'm here, ain't I? That's what I'm afraid of.—Pri¬vate John. |
