Show The next day, the sophs an the Frosh had a klass meeting. I was just dieing to find out what the sophs talked about. They wont never let any of there seckrets out. Finnally I talked Liza Ann into telling me that they are planning for a big vawdavil. Liza Ann is goin to be one of the fashiun models, that dress up like these here vamphires what you see in the shows. I bet its goin to be some show. I took her to see the "Harp of Life" with me. That was a great show. But I dont think she wants to be a model now, after seein what a terrible way that vamphires acted in this here show. Thursday, the editor to the Acorn (thats our year book) told us that we all had to have our piktures taken. Me and Liza Ann wanted to have ours taken together, but they said that the boys would have to wear tucksedoes, and since there was only one tucksedo, and evrybudy had to have there pikture took, we had to take our turn. Enyway, we have deecidid to trade picktures. She embarasst me terribly the other day tho, pop. I was right down town, and who should I see comin along, but Liza Ann and a whole lot of other girls on sleds that was being drawn by an old mare that looked like our "kate." At first I thot Liza had lost her mind, then I saw the poster what said "Weber-Saints," and I knew she was only advertising the game. That advertising stirred us up too, and helped us to win the game. It seemed like Liza Ann and the rest of the girls helped us basket ballfellers a lot; for when we went up to play the B. Y. C, and Ricks, we were defeeted both times cuz they couldnt chear for us. That shows that moral support counts, doesnt it? Febuary, the ist, the sophs held a class party in the kitchun at the sckool. Of course, we being a green man (freshie) I couldnt attend, but Liza Ann said evrybudy had a wonderful time, and the kitchun served its purpose (meaning the eats, of course.). Time flew awfully fast at sckool while I was trying to learn. But I wasnt sorry I learned cause it was long until we had our Junior Prom, which was held at the Berthana (thats the very nicest dance hall in Ogden), on the 26th of Feb. It took a lot of money to get me a tucksedo, buy Liza Ann some flowers, and a ticket for the dance. But it was worth it all. It was the most beautiful dance of the whole year, and Liza looked so swell and beautiful in her new dress that didnt have any sleeves. She looked up at me and smiled so sweet that I almost wanted to kiss her, and she said "Oh, Emo, the flowers are so beautiful," and I new right then that she must love me. "You know somehow that dance had an effect on a lot of people. Virginia Brown, and Sylvan Warner announced their engagement, and it wasnt any time after that until they were married. Somehow I always wanted to say something myself to Liza Ann that night, but Im glad I waited for it wasnt long after that before the tourney for basketball championship started, and I had to concantraite on nothing else except that game. Of course I knew that Liza Ann was backing me all the time. I had an awful hard time of it that week of tourney, for right along with it came the exams, and how every one crammed! You could see the lights burning almost all night. As I was coming home from Liza's one night I saw that Monk was still studyin his Theology. Evrybudy worked awfully hard, and even us basketball fellers made an "A" on some of our tests. Besides making a victory in our tests, we had an even better one in the tourney. The first night, we played Ricks, and we defeated them. The second night we played the B. A. C. and defeated them too. But the third and final night the Saints captured the title. At first, it was quite a dissappointment to us, but we showed our sportsmanship, and treated the winners to a dance. Liza Ann told me that she liked me more than ever before after that. But pop, Monday is registration day, and I must have some more money for books. About $15 will do for a while. I'm going to get a job helping Bill, the janitor, on Saturdays, so I wont need so much money after while. Thanks pop, Your most liberal son, Emo: Ogden, Utah Dear Mother and Father: The eighth of March marked the beginning of our spring quarter. There was a note of seriousness that had never been seen before, and each student began to realize the necessity of obtaining the requirements for graduation. At present, I believe we are all working toward that end. Dr. Lind received a very large enrollment since his classes were to dismiss a month early. The cast of the play, "Jane" has been working hard toward a different end-that of making such a remarkable impression upon their audiences that they could entice students, or rather educate them to come to Weber. With this in mind, the cast, together with the quartet, made a tour, playing in Morgan on Thursday, March 11; Hoytsville, March 12; and Evanston, March 13. Liza Ann was one of the leading actors in the play, so again I was left alone. The memory of the bus which came to take her away leaves a sad reflection in my mind. However, I kept myself busy preparing for the B. Y. C. debate. That was the beginning debate and it certainly was a terror. That very day I cursed my fate that I should have ever been born a man-our team lost. |
