School Asks Backing Of Every Pupil Attractions Not Drawing Attendance They Deserve OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette—Editor Jack Bennett—Associate Editor A desirable factor for any school is unanimous interest of the stu¬dents. If every individual support¬ed basketball games, plays, dances, other social or sport functions, and literary work such as the year-book, no wide advertising would be needed o make the undertakings a public success. When nearly one thousand youths are present at Ogden High school's activities, parents, other boys and girls, and the peo¬ple in general are convinced that the enterprise must be worth their time. Was the gymnasium Friday night jammed with eager, excited mem¬bers of our school? Was the audi-torium packed with young humanity at the school play? Are dances completely filled with ever-moving, dancing couples? No. Only a cer¬tain few are ready to uphold the responsibility of making exhibits worthy of the school's name, to give the assistance which is needed by the participants. Let every one of us, then, give our "Willing, whole-hearted efforts in maintaining school activities.— Emily Merrill. WORLD OF ADVENTURE What are your plans for the fu¬ture, after you leave high school? You may become a doctor, a law¬yer, or in fact anything you desire to be, but you will only be what you make yourself. Outside, in the great busy con¬course, adventure is awaiting you. This is not the adventure which is found at Coney Island. No, the bright lights hold little adventure for most of us. Adventure means work for the best in life. Are you willing to make the best of your opportunities or are you going to decline to go into the world of adventure?—Le Ida Roberts. UNUSUAL SIGHTS Wouldn't it seem funny— To see Miss Wadsworth smile. For Mr. Farnsworth to be quiet before giving a typing test. To see Miss Osmond frown. For Gwen to be unpopular. For Dizie to be on time for study. For Dorothy H. not to be smiling. For Mr. Robin not to give an assignment. For Mr. Oberhansley not to talk all period. For Miss Stephenson to wait five minutes after the bell before she started her dictating.—Gardenia. BASKETBALL INTERVIEW Captain Clyde Greenwell, Tiger guard, came out of seclusion long enough to enlighten basketball fans on the following questions: Question—Are there ever any things that happen in a game that are not seen by the audience? Answer—"Yes. The fans never notice that a player has become rattled. A time out is called, the player is given time to recover, and the play resumes. None of the team shows that anything has happened." Question—As captain of the team do you ever offer advice to the team during time-out? Answer—"I do not pffer advice as captain of the team, but rather as a member of the team. In fact, each one of us offers bits of advice to each other. If the team is not functioning properly, we find out what is wrong and try to correct the fault among ourselves." Question—Is it true that a team plays better ball on its home court? Answer—"This is true with some teams, but with others it is not. The only difference between one court and another is in the out of bounds. A team, however, is informed of the out-of-bounds rules before the game begins." Question—As a guard, does the fact that the forwards do most of the scoring have any ill effect on your team work? Answer—"No. A good guard real¬izes that he is a defensive man and is not supposed to be a high scorer. The forwards and center do the scoring." Question—Would you rather your team enter a game the underdogs or the favorites? Answer—"To me the favorites are at a disadvantage. They are apt to become a little too sure that they will win. This disrupts their game and spoils their chances." Willard Whittaker, forward, is next.—Blaine Larsen. WHAT'S IN A NAME? Some students agree with Shakes¬peare in believing that there's noth¬ing to a name, that a rose by any other name would be as sweet. The school office, however, feels that a name has some significance and trouble would be saved by hold¬ing on to names as christened. For instance, yesterday the navy department asked, for the record of Charles Edward . It was learned later that this boy is known as "Jimmie." Today a former stu-dent asked for transcript of Rus¬sell E . After some searching it was learned that this boy was known as "Billie" in high school. THANKS, ROTARY The high school acknowledges re¬ceipt of Rotary magazine, compli¬mentary from Ogden Rotary club, through its president, C. A. Wright. We thank you. WAILING AND GNASHING We presume there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth in May by some students whose pictures will not appear in the yearbook, and by others who will not be able to se¬cure yearbooks. And this will hap-pen despite all the warnings, beg¬ging, pleading that has been going on for over two months for stu-dents to hand in their photographs and their subscriptions for the year¬book. Thus goes the world. INTERESTING LECTURE On Thursday at eleven-fifteen Prof. R. W. Sorenson of California Institute of Technology will address high school students on the subject of "High Voltage Engineering." The public is invited. THURSDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 8, 1934. New Ideas Promised By Cadets Old Opinions Scheduled To Be Upset During School Dance OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette—Editor Jack Bennett—Associate Editor A soldier is usually pictured as a fellow who smokes and drinks, who is, in general, a bad, bad man. All who attend the Berthana, Febru¬ary 21, will have these ideas shat¬tered with amazing abruptness. In-stead of seeing a bunch of old "soaks" dancing with none the bet¬ter women, any crude observer will notice, without any trouble to his optical senses, that the soldiers pres¬ent will be immaculately dressed with no sign of drinking or smok¬ing and the girls, oh the girls! They will be like angels floating around in lily white gowns. In addition to the formulating of new opinions about the soldier crowd the crack company will be present to show the crowd what a soldier can do when he really tries. If you miss this dance you will have missed the big¬gest event of the year.—Private Frantzen Todd. APOLOGY I'm sorry that I've hurt you, Just as sorry as can be, There's been so many quarrels, All betwixt just you and me. I've cursed your stubborn temper And thrown books in your face, Still you've been uncomplaining; You've always kept your place. And I know the way I've treated you Has made you feel quite blue; So I'm writing this apology, Good locker mine, to you. —Elizabeth Parkinson. STATEMENT Editor of O.H.S. Notes: The We¬ber County High Ag club presented its annual smoker Friday. During past years the club has had mixed bouts between the O.H.S. and W.C. H. This year we find that your Harry Herscovitz claims to be able to throw our champ, E. Nicholas. Well, we are proud to say Nicholas is willing to take him on Friday to see who is really the champ of the two schools. Yours for better feeling.—Doc. HAPPY EXPERIENCE There is nothing like being in a good play to make you think you are grown up. Recently, Wesley Owens demanded of Viola: "Are you going to marry me or are you not?" "I am not," said Viola. "You will," insisted Wesley (and so far into the play). Being in plays is really good prac¬tice for anyone. So when some of the senior directors in the oral ex-pression department ask you to be in the plays they are going to direct please respond cheerfully. You will gain experience as well as have a cheerful and happy time.—Elva Mil¬ler. FREEDOM FOR NECKS Kickers! We don't like kickers. Do you? We hardly think so. Every day in every class we see the lads who wear civilian clothes with their collars wide open. But when the poor little drill boys unbutton their collars they hear complaints. We think the cadets ought to be able to air their necks as much as they wish because the woolly things we wear as shirts get us het up quite often. Particularly we cannot see any harm in us showing our brawny chests as much as anyone else. Af¬ter all, we are not a bunch of soft¬ies, are we? We are for more buttonless collars. Is it considered a breach of modesty to have one's collar unbuttoned? If so, we would like to know why.—El Eo and Bud. SPRING FEVER Are you beginning to get that dis¬ease called spring fever? Here are the symptoms: A far away look in the eye, Day dreams so sweet and lovely, A desire to put away school books And do nothing but make up poet¬ry.—Francisca. HYGIENE A very interesting and helpful work, including a wide variety of subjects, is cleverly taught us by means of specific, interesting exam¬ples and detailed stories, vividly re¬lated by our instructor to emphasize various points. That is hygiene. The discussion holds our attention because of the voluntary informa-tion or viewpoints given by the stu¬dents in class. Often a question arises which gives ample chance for the girls to express their opinions for both sides of the argument and supporting their stand by evidence. Twice a week, Wednesday and Friday, we are present at hygiene classes. Lives of famous men such as Edward Gener, Mr. Grassi, Louis Pasteur, and others, who are di¬rectly responsible for medical ad-vancement, have been closely studied, the diseases which they were interested in have been thor-oughly discussed. For instance, the conditions and months of anxiety leading to the discovery of the cure for hydro-phobia by Louis Pasteur was de¬scribed by Mrs. White while the girls took notes. Rules in developing charming per¬sonalities, basketball regulation; and how to keep mentally and phy-sically fit are only a few of the many topics which we have had. Because of their interest and adapt-ability, may such work continue.— Emily Merrill.
