Show FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL 28. 1933. Graduates Learn That Short Message On Card Often Proves Effective Seniors Deign to Explain to Junior How System Operates OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Parke Petterson, Editor; Barbara Kimball and Marjorie Wood, Associate Editors Deceit, thou art a shameless worker. It seems that this is truly a mail school when it is possible for ' i person to go through the halls md find students scheming to deceive some other persons. I don't know how long this has been going on but yesterday I noticed a group of seniors standing around the trophy case diligently writing a list of names on a piece of paper. I was at once interested and asked what it all meant. Grant turned around and said "You I wouldn't understand anyway, junior, but it's our sucker list. We send announcement cards to them and then wait for them to send us a gift." But I was still innocent and couldn't figure it out so he went into detail about it. "Well! Suppose that you are going to graduate this spring; you send a card to all of your uncles and aunts and what have you, but on these cards you write, 'Dear Uncle Henry, this announcement card may be late in reaching you because I haven't a watch,' and Uncle Henry then sends you his congratulations and a new watch. 'Dear Aunt Agnes, I am writing in pencil as I need a new fountain pen.' This goes on until you run out of relatives." This seems to be a very dishonorable act but next year when I grad- ute I think I will be dishonorable too.-Jack Bennett OFFICERS ELECTED Student body officers for the next year were elected as follows: Grant Jensen, president; Barbara Reeve, vice president; Clifford Thorne, secretary. They will take up their du- ti ties in September. WHAT SHALL I BE? Youth is confronted with one inevitable question - "What shall I be?" One means of approach to the answer to this question is to read "Careers" a library of monograms on more than 50 vocations, prepared by experts. This is now a part of the Ogden High school library. LECTURE ENJOYED The R. O. T. C. unit was agreeably surprised Thursday by being taken to the Central Junior High school where a very interesting lecture was given by Mr. Kay of the Utah Fish and Game department on the subject of preservation of fish and game. His lecture was accompanied by many beautiful and informing pictures, mostly on natural life in this state. Everyone enjoyed the talk and agreed that such a variation from the usual routine was very beneficial in every way. STOP! LOOK! READ! Now is the time for all good juniors to come to the aid of their class. Tonight is the night which will terminate weeks of preparation on the part of the junior class, days of preparation on the part of the boys in trading dances and hours of preparation on the part of the girls to put on their make-up and comb their hair. If you are interested in attending the best dance of the year you will be there; but if you are not interested in attending the best dance then think of the many athletes who will be there for Coach Kapple has been saving mosjt of them for the junior prom. There is still time to get tickets and there are many girls without dates, so be sure to come; if not to dance to watch Alice King (need I tell you she is the entertainer?); if not to watch her then to watch the girls; if not to watch the girls then to listen to the sweet strains of melody which waft through the atmosphere.-Jack Bennett OGDEN ENTERS MEET Saturday afternoon at the State Agricultural college in Logan, twelve u: Ogden High school athletes will line Up for the divisional track and field L meet. This meet will be the high p spot for the track team and will t: i Wind up the season for all boys not w winning a first, second or third place. Those who do win places will a be eligible to go to the state track r meet in Provo. To use the words of c A1 Warden I will say "Ogden will enter a strong team." j Congratulations, boys, on winning a place on the Tiger team and may i each one of you win at Logan and again at Provo.-Jack Bennett. j BOYS WILL SHINE Ogden High school boys are to r officiate as officers and furnish the program for Rotary during Boy's ; week this year. We appreciate, Rotary, the honor you thus bestow J upon us. i AN EXPERT There is considerable talk among the boys regarding the excellent: pitching manifested by Clyde Greenwell in our baseball contest. Clyde is a very versatile youngster and whatever he turns his hand to he does excellently well. REGULAR COUNCIL Regular council meeting was called to order by Vice President Dorothy Paine; the roll was called, the minutes were read and approved. Marian Cheesman reported that the company has accepted the order for the school flag and the work is under way. The report was accepted. The vice president read Carpe Diem's special notice given to club presidents, containing details of the trophy they are giving to the club with the best scholastic records. Grant Goddard announced that all orders for announcement cards must be placed in the hands of the committee before Monday. The chair announced that the junior prom is to be held Friday evening and urged everyone to attend. She asked that the council look for prospective persons to receive the block "O" awards to be voted on next meeting. Boy's week will be observed May 7-12. This week will include many special activities. The same smokeless smoker committee was asked to work on a new smoker to be held in the near future. Council then adjourned by motion. -Wendell Fowler, secretary : MONDAY EVENING, MAY 1, 1933. Commendation Given For Friendship Spirit Good Relations Between Two Schools Call For Word of Praise 5 OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES s Parke Petterson, Editor; Barbara Kimball and Marjorie Wood, Associate Editors One of the most commendable features of our high school life this ! year is the fine spirit that has been shown in all school activities, especially in our attitude toward other 1 schools. There has been a feeling 1 if friendship and goodwill preva- 1 ent between Ogden High and We- ' oer college that has never before 1 been equalled. This has been dem- i onstrated principally in the patron- ' age pf each other's social events.- Lacka Day. NO DRIFTING, PLEASE No young person should be permitted to "drift" into a life work yet no one can safely "decide" whai to be until he first knows whai there is to be. For this reason e panoramic view of careers is essential to intelligent choice and should precede any effort to arrive at a decision. Every high school boy and girl should read "Careers," the new booklet in our library. Read, study, consider-to prevent your being a square peg in a round hole-a mis- fit. . FINE ASSEMBLY The assembly was called to order ; by President Anderson. The program was conducted by the junior " class. The famed professor, Mr. Snooysduck (Jerry Seal), gave us a ; very uneducational talk on the junior prom. "In a Chinese Temple Garden" was played by an orchestra conducted by Harold Felt. After Grant i Jensen had read us a poem, "A Friend," Grant Goddard, the senior class president, gave us a talk on "What the Juniors Will Be Next Year." Miss Kiyoka Oda entertained us by playing two piano solos. Miss Betty Young and Miss Arleen Ossman, of Central Junior High, both gave interpretations of Uncle Remus. (Did Dale enjoy it?) J Mr. Felt's orchestra gave us an- l other number entitled "Two Guitars." After Grant Jensen had re- ' minded us of the junior prom, the time was turned back to Dale, who introduced the student body' officers for sext year. Grant Jensen, president, gave us a short speech (he forgot the shoes). Barbara Reeves, vice president, and Clif- ford Thorne, secretary, gave short speeches. 1 We only hope that next year can be as successful as this year has been. Congratulations, students.- Mary Paquette. PARTY ENJOYED The junior promenade, which was given by the juniors in honor of the seniors last Friday night at ;he Berthana ballroom, was a huge juccess. There were about 800 people in attendance, and everyone seemed to e thoroughly enjoying himself. The hall was decorated with the junior banner, and several pots of 'flowers were around in various ; places, 'the programs were printed in the colors of the junior class, blue and gold. The grand march began at nine- thirty o'clock, and was led by Dale Anderson, Jean Danvers, Grant Jenson and Faye Staker. Seventy-two couples participated. The whole affair was very pretty, with all the ; light, fluffy dresses of the girls and ; the neat brown, black or gray suits i of the boys. ; Excellent punch was served; at , least I suppose it was excellent, be- , cause it was all gone by the time ' I had time to go to get some of it. Judging from the broad smiles on the majority of he tfaces fes : they were leaving the dance floor, everyone had had a marvelous time. The juniors had shown the seniors how to have a good time, and the junior promenade was a great success.-M. P. |
