The letter re'ads: f "On Saturday, April 29, the uni- versity will give its English place- e ment and psychological tests. We realize it is quite a distance for any of your people to come down, but it would be an advantage to the uni- versity, and I am sure to them, if they could come and have this matter over with. Will you kindly an- I pounce this date to your students, ' so that if they can arrange to come 1 they may do so? . ! "The students will report at the auditorium in Kingsbury hall at nine a. m." 1 BALLOT FORMED Primary voting in the student body election was held Wednesday and the field was narrowed to two , candidates for each position to be . filled. The final election, to decide 1 who will serve next school year, will be held next week. The final candi- ! dates are: For president, Grant Jensen and Maurice Kennedy; for . vice president, Barbara Reeve and Charlene Woods; for secretary, Gus Becker and Clifford Thorne, WEBER PLAY 1 "Weeber college-Rah-Rah. What" do you say about Ogden High's stu- ( dent body giving the play present- ; ed by Weber our full support?" Objection No. 1 - "Our opera : comes the same nights." Answer to objection No. 1-"Oh! But it doesn't. "Arms and the Man" , (Weber's play) was scheduled for Wednesday, tonight and Friday. You could go to the play tonight and the opera Friday, or the play Friday and the opera Saturday." Objection No. 2-"The price, you know there is a depress-" j Answer to objection No. 2-"The (price isn't prohibitive. Reserved j seats are 35 cents and the other seats are 25 cents, and the O. H. S. student body ticket is worth ten cents. Will this prevent you from attending an entertaining play by George Bernard Sh'aw? Think it over."-Buk. VISITOR AT SCHOOL Principal Greene of the Pocatello High SchooI spent 'Wednesday "fore-noon at Ogden High. He took oc casion to look into all classes and F departments at our school. P . c APPRECIATION si A. M. Merrill, principal, has re- ; ceived a letter- from W. H. Boyle b, I and Wayne B. Hales, Brigham Young university, who spoke recent- ' ly at Ogden High. They wrote: P "We are grateful for the kind way F ' in which we were received and tak- u en care of on our short visit to your n Ihigh school. We enjoyed the con- tact. We appreciate the friendship " for us and the friendship you have 1 : for the school we represent. Ex- t - press our appreciation to the teach- . ers and superintendent." 6 ADVERTISING All my life I've wanted to be a' Yeoman of the Guard, and look at me. (Adv.) f If anyone sees "Hap" Pearson t " running down to the corner of j Twenty-sixth and Jackson, just re- g' member he's working out for track, c Marvin Bingham is going straight 1 to the "Dobbs," or something. V This cool weather can't last, so j make merry, for tomorrow you fry. (Classical touch.) Lucy loves Bud or "Ellis" I'm 1 lt wrong. (I've been saving this one i for a long time.) And Furious Kay ought to be ie "Hitt." (One of these days I'm go- e ing to carry this just too far and-) J2 Swap department: We've got a couple of Grant Jenson votes. What t have you? (More advertisement.) i r They found a comb in the note ; d box. Which only goes to show that : s they really do open the note box once in a while. Modesty, Emerson Huff, is the one quality we know the most about. lt Ask anyone! I suggest a grammar test for pos- sible student body presidents. This isn't a crack at you, Dale, but you :a know your weakness. Student: "What do you know?" V, Smart Aleck: "Nothing. I've just come from council." (Awful.) Dr u Wouldn't it be terrible if we ie couldn't talk about Dale's "Paine"? iy I'm only asking. Wouldn't it? Juste Moi doesn't know my u 1 111 - name, but I have a name for him- even if he is bigger than I am. We've been taking in rumors, and among the others comes whisper to the effect that Forum is not going to have an assembly this year. Another says that Jim Foulger and Ruth have had a tiff-a steady rumor, by the way. Another that Beverly Brown says to her fiddle: "Vas you dere, Charlie?" and the last that "Tiny" Max Loll and Mary Francis Hetzel make an ideal couple. (He'll cut me off without a cent for this one, but I can't resist. The public first, my motto.) Does Don Banks use the freight elevator in the Hotel Ben Lomond because he has to or from choice? We'd like to know. Something ought to be said about people who ride around at noon in Ford roadsters but, contrary to popular belief, I can't think of a single nasty thing to say. In springtime our thoughts turn ) to graduation, which reminds us. 1 Mr. Merrill, just say B. T., and! ! they'll all know who you mean. . (And more advertising.) Famous last words: "What? You have a date for the Junior Prom?" (Advertising, advertising and adver- t tising.)-B. T. 6 THE OPERA They tell me the opera is going _ i to be pretty classy and that it is the f first time it has been put on in this part of the country. That means :. one of two things. It is so poor t that nobody else would put it on or it is just new and a sensation. After discussing it with the offi- r. cials I find it is really worth while, that it is the snappiest, best opera to be put on at Ogden High for e some time. If it is half as good as Mr. Hanson thinks it is, it will go e over big. I got a glance at it the other day ) purely by mistake, and it really sur- a prised me more than a little. I t enjoy some of the scenes they have in the last part of it. I hope I will e see you there Friday or Saturday -t night. Au Revoir.-Juste Moi. |
