Numerous Students Seek Scholarships Several Youths Also Yearning To Enter Annapolis or West Point OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Parke Petterson, Editor Barbara Kimball and Marjorie Wood , Associate Editors I The school office is very busy & these days filling out transcripts of 11 applicants for the Thompson schol- , arships at the University of California. These are about the best e scholarships available to Utah stu- d I dents and, believe me, students are S I going after them. Several students are hoping and praying for appoint- Q ments to West Point or Annapolis. B- n BIG EVENT OF YEAR I Cadets! The dance of the year is " next Wednesday night. Can you afford to miss it? Doubtless most .. of you honor and are proud of your uniform, but whether you have been or not, you certainly will be on this n night. This will be a pleasant de- t parture from the cadets' usual hum- f drum existence. There are hundreds g I of dances but none that will thrill , you like this. Your military train- g ing is not complete without this cli- g max. Go to the dance and you will I agree heartily.-I. W.O. TAPS I Cadets, attention! Have you a x date for the cadet hop? If you r haven't get one; and when you do these are your orders! Run home Wednesday after school and jump 1 into your drill suit; skip up to your dame's house; step into your car; j dash down to the Berthana; climb ( up the steps to the hop and shinny ( around the floor all night. If you don't go to the cadet hop you will be considered K.P. (kinda punk)-Jack Bennett. TRANSPORTATION Some may wonder how many sol- i diers are going to walk their girl I friends to the cadet hop. I have I found that "Happy" is going to "budge" his flame on his skiis. lowing to the late snowfall his land- lings may be light. "Jack" assures I me that his means of "trucking" will I be strictly Economy Cab-(from l corner of Washington and Twenty - fourth street to the Berthana, a dis- I tance of nearly one block. Dribble, ! Drabble, I presume, will dribble his femme by leaps and bounces. Grant demands that his skirt be trans- I ported by his D company giants. 1 Prince Henry has his own personal baby buggy-so he says. "The King" lis going to shuffle duffle his better I half-more leather to him. Unfamous first maids: Well-I got a bicycle. Who me-oh-Abnerts. FEW SUGGESTIONS I The following is a brief discussion 1 of some of the reasons for lowered team power that were brought out 'Sin last year's basketball tournament f I survey. This discussion is present- . Red now to aid by suggestion to the! I coaches, the youth development of lour state. ; Badly infected tonsils have been Inhe cause for many an aspiring athlete never attaining his goal. The ' toxins absorbed and the bacteria en- 1 tering the blood stream from these 1 tonsils are true handicaps to the jbest development. It is very unwise I for a young man to go into play Iduring an acute tonsilitis, or mark- Jed cold, or any other infection of lithe body. 1 Constricting bands about the legs above or below the knee, can but reduce the leg power by hampering freedom of circulation. Occasional- ly they may be factors in varicose vein formation. g: In the matter of training, regu- c( larity appears to be important. To fi play with spirit, intensity, happiness to "the point of being well tired, never to the point or fatigue, then resting and repeating once or twice or more will bring results. One hour a day of intensive work should suf- fice. During a match game when a boy shows fatigue he should be remov- uJ ed. From that time on he can only r ' do harm to his body and not much r , good to his team. , The question of food supply is ' quite important from various angles. An ample supply in three square meals of a wide variety of foods should be eaten. The starches, a sweets and fats supply energy, the ; proteins such as meats, eggs, cheese, r 1 milk are body builders. The elim- ; ination or great reduction of meats has no foundation. 1 A long period between the last ; meal and a hard game may find a ' boy without an abundant energy ' food supply for the game, and hence ; an early fatigue. A light meal 1 largely of carbohydrates (starches ' and sweets) one hour before would J supply this need. 1 The usual hour for practice comes late in the afternoon at a time when the boys are tired from mental strain and other activities. Many will have eaten little or nothing at i noon. They go into training with a small energy food supply. The best results cannot be hoped for. 3 Again, the supplying of a small r light meal one-half to one hour be- ; fore training should supply the re- 3 quired glucose needed for the works' out. To train hard and long with-! out the required glucose store can P but do harm to the various bodily a- structures. A reasonable scientific basis for the various phases of physical development will be the aim in pre- .- senting from time to time such brief :1 discussion.-Dr. Henry Raile. THE VOICE OF I-W-O 5. Due to the deep snow the post- - man was delayed and this report is is more or less history rather than a current issue. About four weeks n ago I-O-W's very competent admin- j istration passed into the hands of 1 i- the new officers. The retiring of- SOMEONE SAID Remember that nature gave you two ears with which to hear and one tongue-that you may not re- „ peat more than half of it. An idle rumor is never idle. ;r He had nothing left to live for j but to die.-Janet Fife. CHAMPIONS The class basketball tournament has finally been battled out until they have a champion in every class. a The second period team, Fortuna, J with Captain Ellen Russel, has won with the highest scores and have " great hopes for the championship, f but competition is strong. Marjorie Glines' Herculians won out in the third period class and Erva Shurtliffs Olympians came out high in the seventh period class. Maude Marion Barker's team The Trojans, finally eliminated Kate Johnson's Fourteen Horsepowers -after a heated game whieh ended with a score of 11 to 10. Janith Wright came out on top with her % team Excella in the sixth period. 01; The champion of the fifth period is Billy Packer's Flash, which has turned out to be a marvelous team, its outstanding assets being Dolly Poladora and Ellen Johnson, two thorough and fast guards. The final -games promise to be most exciting, land we all hope that the best team : wins.-Dorothy Bowman. ficers are: Paul Bramwell, president;. Grant Goddard, vice president; Robert Smith, secretary; Wayne Watson, reporter. The newly elected officers are: Grant Goddard, president; Jack Becker, vice president; Frank Ellis, secretary; Jack Shaws reporter. The next week three senior pledges were formally taken into the club as full fledged members. They are: Vera Springer, Dale Anderson, and Frank Martin. I-Wannan-O congratulates itself on having such fine members added to its roll. DAILY CARTOON Are the boys happy? Yes, in fact so much so that that question seeme like useless question No. 649. The reason is that drill uniforms will not be required until the day after the cadet hep. What a break! Here's our valentine to Mr. Merrill and the rest of the school: Roses are red, Violets are blue, Here's a belated valentine, Bought 'specially for you. P.S. You can find "belated" in the dictionary. And will someone settle this business about the cadet hop date? Personal: Nothing of interest.- Wash Tubbs, Editor in Pieces. FRIDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 17, 1933. O.H.S. Girls Study Interior Decorating Students of Domestic Art Given Opportunity of Showing Skill OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Parke Petterson, Editor Barbara Kimball and Marjorie Wood Associate Editors It is surprising the scope for study there is in domestic art. One would naturally suppose that the class would be devoted wholly to the art of making attractive clothes. This is a wrong impression, because sewing involves home-making, and ihome making involves many different subjects. We have studied the origin, process of making and use of cotton, wool, linen and silk. Now we are on the more difficult topic interior decorating. Each girl in the senior classes has read books and written papers on that .'.subject, , thereby widening her knowledge of I color, balance and arrangement. But for the past four weeks on every mind there has been a heavy burden. Every girl has. five charts, each one on the interior of a room. These charts must be painted in water colors in appropriate color schemes. If you do not think that is a difficult job, try it sometime. Nevertheless, I think they will all turn out in lovely schemes and we girls will have the satisfaction of a hard task well accomplished-Texa Bollig. WEEK'S VACATION Instead of a day here, and a day there, (e .g. Lincoln's birthday, Washington's birthday, etc.) for school holidays this year, the board of education has arranged for a full week's spring vacation. This will come early in April. We think this a fine arrangement, don't you? CADET HOP POSTPONED The cadet hop, being semi-military and patriotic, was scheduled to take place on Washington's birthday, February 22. Since there will be regular school work on that date as well as the date following, it has been considered advisable to post pone the dance until Friday evening, February 24. All who have received invitations and all who are Interested in this party will please take notice of this postponement. CUT RATE ON CADET HOP It seems to me that one of the objects of the public school system is democracy in the school but how can that be when we charge such a high price for our hop? Only a "big shot" can afford such a staggering price for a dance. In case someone doesn't know, I want to say there is a sort of depression on and I think we should adopt depression prices. Last year it wasn't so bad but now the condition is i worse. I think we should cut prices a little. In this way we would encourage a great many more to come and our returns probably would be bigger. Instead of having a minority of the O.H.S„ attend why not lower prices and have a majority? -Straightened Circumstances. SLIPS Have all my little readers got a date to the cadet hop? If you have not, fellows, hurry and pop the question, but don't ask any of the spon- sers, because I think they all have their dates. All day Wednesday, Lowell was trying to be funny and he told Helen Parmley he had asked every little girl (aged three to six) he met for a date to the cadet hop. Can you imagine Helen's embarrassment when she tried to duplicate his acts by asking a five-year-old boy: "Have you got a date for the cadet hop?" "No! But I've got .a Saturday Evening Post," came fast reply. (Probably a future Forum member.) I think the editor of the notes! should be congratulated. Some time i ago, a very bright young man very carefully revealed the identity of "R." Since then he has written about my articles for the notes and more of them have been printed. Congratulations, staff. By the way, we have figured out one for you fellows who want to go to the hop and are too baiful to ask for a date. Ask your mother for a date and go on her invitation. Have you read Deirdre's vow yet? If not, go and have her read it toi you but, don't say you were not! warned, don't say anythihg about! the past where it says "I'm tired of acting dumb." After the cadet hop the Bachelors' j club will be open for new member-' ship.-"R," |
