Show WEDNESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 16, 1933. STUDENTS WILL OFFER CANTATA NEXT THURSDAY High School Classes Will Present "Glory of Bethlehem" ITie Christmas cantata "The Glory of Bethlehem," will be presented by the vocal classes of Ogden High school Thursday evening, December 21, at eight o'clock in the school hall. This cantata is made up of passages from the Bible depicting the birth of Christ set to music. The text of this selection is by Rene Bronner, while the music is written by H. W. Petrie. It is under direc¬tion of Glenn L. Hanson, music in-structor at the institution, and Mark Robinson, music supervisor. It is expected that some 110 students will participate in it. They will be assisted by the school orchestra. DIVISIONS SHOWN The following numbers will be given: Opening chorus "His Name be Glorified;" soprano solo by Cornelia Evertson; quartet of Cornelia Evertson, Maxine Gale, Wendell Phillips, Keith Reid; "Come Light Divine," by quartet composed of Cathryn Malan, Faye Staker, Leland Wright, Lloyd Fredrickson; "Glory to God;" chorus, quartet, Marian Holbrook, Mary Vance, Jack Higginbotham, Kent Hather; "Holy Babe Sleep On;" bass solo by Robert Emmett; "Behold, Bless Ye the Lord;" chorus, soprano solo by Dorothy Dean Hoggan; alto and tenor duet by Barbara Taylor and Earl Robinson; "The Gift of God," soprano solo by Ruth Sessons; "Guide Us to Him," trio for soprano, tenor and bass, by June Wheeler, Wendell Phillips, Clifton Price; "The Glorified City," chorus, alto solo by Willa Wave Talbot'; "The Lord Shall Reign Forever," chorus; "The Path of Love," tenor solo by Chester Christiansen; "Come All Ye Faithful," final chorus. This cantata will probably be presented for the students on the morning or afternoon of Thursday. SPECIAL SETTING "The decorations and lighting ef¬fects will add considerably to the effectiveness and will create a spirit' of Christmas," says a school statement. "The strenuous and concen¬trated efforts of the music students and their instructor to make it a success should be sufficient to insure the public of its worth and should attract a large gathering of music patrons. The production will be enjoyed to the greatest extent if we adopt Coleridge's viewpoint. He said, 'The best sort of music is what it should be—sacred'." MONDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 18, 1933. Desire Shown For New Books Describing Late Aviation Advancements Present Volumes Found Too Old For Swiftly Changing Industry OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette. Editor Jack Bennett. Associate Editor Every so often one reads where the library has purchased a set of new volumes for its shelves. During my three years at the high school I have not once seen a new book on America's most favorite sport, form of employment and fastest growing industry. This book that I speak of is along the line of aviation. All the new books are about history, science, literature, art, fiction or engineering. Aviation is the most rapidly changing science at the present date. The present series of aviation books in our library consists of four or five, mostly out of date, books dating from 1910 to 1926. These books furnish considerable information on the theory of the aeroplane or aerostat. Since these volumes have left the, press, aviation research work had tripled. Scientific data had been! gathered from the four corners of the earth. Books on the last five years advancement of aviation would be doubly welcome by more students than myself. No person contemplating a career as an auto mechanic would make a detailed study of the horseless car¬riage which has so nobly passed away to make room for our present automobiles. So it is with aviation. Upon consulting the librarian on this matter I recieved the answer that the books were in compara-tively new condition and that there was no need of replacing them. — G. T. THIS AND THAT Girls, if you want to get a thrill go up to the gym after school and take a peep at the real he-mans practicing basketball. By the looks of things O. H. S. ought to clinch the state basketball championship this year. Good luck to you, boys. How do the girls of the first pe¬riod class in the library like the thumping above your heads? This is what we boys suffer during the day while you thump up there. It seems like Fred Nantker is pretty popular among the seniors. Wonder if it his dynamic personal¬ity that gets him his popularity. Will all the students that enjoy these articles please send me by parcel post all the old scraps of paper and stubs of pencils and pens for the poor? Thank you, for reading my article.—Burp II.

For twelve weeks everyone has patiently awaited the season of the year when we would play this game, since bas¬ketball in previous years has been so thoroughly enjoyable and inter¬esting to feminine members enlist¬ed in the gym classes. We memorized the rules for per¬sonal and technical fouls, the pen¬alties given for each rule broken, the differentiation between the umpire and referee, and in fact all of the rules in girls' basketball that every player should know to be able to play fairly. Then the positions of a jumping center, guards, forwards, umpire, and referee were tried by every girl on the particular team to see which one she is best fitted for. This is the second week of basketball, and everyone is in enthusiasm wrought by their deep liking for this sport and the keen competition aroused in playing the other three teams is putting forth her best ef¬forts to make the game delightful. May the same spirit of sportsman¬ship and interest prevail during the many games to be played in the girls' basketball season.—Emily Merrill. A. D. M. SESSION A monthly, A. D. M. night meet¬ing was called to order at Fay Thomas' home. We are allowed one night a month to discuss our hard time of the year, because the holi¬days are prominent figures in all our lives. While I am on the sub¬ject of holidays, A. D. M. desires at 'this time to wish all the students (and teachers of Ogden High a Mer¬ry Christmas and a lot of New Year resolutions. We know all the girls enjoy our successful meetings so here is a word of warning: "Don't forget our next gathering. — Reporter D. S. ASSEMBLY At the beginning or the assembly! Mr. Merrill announced that our conduct in last Friday's assembly was deserving of a nice big "D". Ellen Halgren told us about the Weber college dance, and advised the boys to give the pretty, little girls a "break." Le Ida and Alton Roberts presented a stirring military selection on I the piano, after which Kay Hitt urged the students to co-operate with Beta Zeta Tau in the charity drive. This assembly marked the second in a series of extemporaneous speech contests. Grant Jensen and Anthon Yarbrough spoke for the senior class, while Emily Merrill and Jack Doone were the junior class orators. An excellent vocal solo, "A Song from Paradise," was given by Willa Wave Talbot, and a violin duet was expertly played by Susie Kaneko land Elsie Mae Griffin. Mr. Merrill then gave us the glad news that we had an "A" grade conduct for this assembly. Mr. Glenn Hanson reminded us of the Christmas Cantata. Vice-President Reeves, who dis¬played great ability in conducting p an assembly, announced that the decision was given to the seniors. We wish to congratulate all four speakers on their excellent orations. A short Christmas skit was then prasented. Oh, Santa, won't you give me some oratorical ability so that I can bring honor to our senior class? Harry Herscovitz, our h eap-big athletic manager, announced the smokeless smoker. Well, Herscy, we wish you luck. —M.
