Show NOVEMBER 4, 1932. Students Advised To Take Solid Courses Could Thus Enter Any College If Opportunity Arrived OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Parke Petterson, Editor. Bobbie Kimball and Marjorie Wood, Associate Editors. Superintendent Hopkins when visiting classes Tuesday took oc- casion to speak in several rooms, ! urging the. students to be serious in their work and to make the best possible preparation for life. I He urged students to select sub- . jects that require effort for mastery W and not to look around for snap courses. . a He urged all who may by any 1 chance enter college later to select liberally of our courses in English, I mathematics, science, language, 1 history, and social science so that s H they might be prepared to enter any college in America and do creditable work. 1 ! He recommended four units inr English, four in mathematics, two, c 1 three or four in language, two in ? r history, two, three or four in science. 1 The superintendent practices what k he preaches. He has graduated three children from the high school !r and will graduate the fourth one this year. Every one of these have El selected their courses largely from the five major departments of knowledge and have qualified to en- ter any American college. ' The superintendent congratulated J j the students on their regular attend- ! jance, on tljeir deportment, and on I their interest he found manifest in Sj every class room. We presume that one reason why i the superintendent does not come , oftener to the high school is because of his embarrassment of our crowd- d ed condition and inadequate equipment. We think probably this ex- s plains also why the members of the board of education never come. H We are cherishing strong hopes, however, on obtaining next year an auditorium and gymnasium addi- j tion to our building. Despite degression, high taxes, poverty and what not, we believe that we should have this addition and we believe I we are going to get it. FORGOT TO MENTION We wonder why Ihe O. H. S. Band hasn't had the mentioning it so I worthily deserves. But it can't be I held from reaching the top, to which I it is so well on its way. On Tuesday evening the Band met at the school and from there marched to the Hotel Bigelow, where LIVE AND LEARN Things I'd Like to Know: Why someone didn't blow up the school on Halloween so we could have a new one. Who soaped high school's windows. I If a poor pupil got results from ner fiJtibte 6H" lessons. Why M. F. won't cut her hair, j Why Dale Anderson won't speak to me. How I'm going to get to the Bear River game. Why nothing I write is ever published. -Inquisitive Me. CONGRESS Congress was called to order Monday evening, October 31. One of the most interesting debates that has been presented this year was en-: joyed by all. Mary Parquette took the affirmative side of the debate with La Vern Galt, and Marion Hill upheld the negative. One of the affirmative debaters being absent, we were unable to give a decision. We also had two visitors, Virginia Nichols and Jeanette Parry, j it gave a few peppy numbers led by the band major, Lloyd Stephens, assisted by the clown, then it proceeded toward the Montgomery Ward building, playing as it marched. After a speech from the clown, Mr. Hanson led the band through some snappy pieces. We congratulate Mr. Hanson and the band, and wish them good luck throughout the year. -A Band Booster. CLUB CELEBRATION Carpe Diem Shindig In Outline: Reason: Mrs. Newcomb's birthday. Purpose: To have a good time, - a delightful program, thanks to Mary June, Helen, Charlene, Kathleen, and Dora. Frequent trips to the kitchen, scorched chocolate, rapidly disappearing nuts, a candy . shortage, a potato-chip deluge, a, i speech, the presentation of the gift,! I the leisurely progress of the members through the dining room, the grand rush of the pledges, the consumption of all eatables, the exit of the pledges, the Virginia reel, to the industrious tramplngs of the Bundy- Smith duet team, the return of the pledges, to the tune of "Say It Isn't So," the departure, having accomp- ( lished our purpose, (and how well!) -Ann Pingree. J AMIGOS DEL MUNDO The "Big Four" are no longer supreme. We have taken in some new members who, we think, are going to be a credit to the club. On Wednesday after school a I meeting of A. D. M. was held in the renowned auditorium of O. H. S. Frances Mortenson and Helen Murphy played a piano duet; Jean Siddaway gave a talk, and each one of the new members gave a short speech. The program was concluded with a tap dance given by Frances Mortenson. But the most important item of i all is yet to come, the introduction of our pledges. We take great pleasure in presenting to you Helen Froerer, our senior pledge; Bernice Fowles, Dorothey Stone, Marion Aupe, Lucy Tuescher and Manita Clayton, our junior pledges. ) -H. M., Reporter.

SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 5, 1932 Ogden Scholastic Teams Capture League Contests Weber Trims Preston Ogden Wallops Bears Tigers Chase Over Three Touchdowns In Final Period of Game After being held to a single touchdown in the first three periods I of play Friday, Ogden High un-i leashed some wide open football in the closing stanza at Bear River to trounce the Bears, 25 to 0. It was the first defeat of Bear River in the region this season. The "Orange Streaks" broke loose on a touchdown rampage in the opening period. Three minutes after the kickoff Foulger plowed off tackle for the tally. A fifteen-yard penalty against the Bears and a 23-yard pass from Weir to Anderson placed the Tigers in scoring distance. The Bears battled the Tigers without any further scoring until the final period opened. In the closing period Weir of the ! Tigers ran loco. The red-head , counted three touchdowns in rapid- , fire order with as sweet an exhibi- ' tion of open field running as one ' would care to witness in any kind of , scholastic competition. : Foulger listed the only Ogden _ conversion in this period with a neat placement. ! Bear River threatened to score in ' the third period on a sustained drive ; to the Tiger 15-yard stripe. The Ogdenites, however braced and held at this stage of the game and 1 kicked out of danger. Hawkins in the backfield and Atkinson on the line played fine ball ' for the losers. Ogden't entire first string played ; marvelous ball. Weir was outstand- ' ing with Foulger also starring in the backfield. The Tigers oppose Weber High next week-end in the annual battle 1 for the little brown jug. Summary: ; Bear River. Ogden. 5 T.
