Show WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH 22, 1933. High Open Track Season Weber County, Ogden Coaches Ballif And Kapple Will Issue Cinder Call Today Spring Football and Baseball Will Also Occupy Time of Athletes For Next Few Weeks; Strong Squads Expected At Both Schools By SPINDLE SHANKS The track and field trumpets of the Ogden Senior High school and the Weber County High school will be sounded this afternoon by Coaches Dixon Kapple and Mark Ballif, respectively. With a fairly successful basketball season behind the two schools, attention will be turned to spring sports which include track and field, as the major item and baseball as minor affairs. While football is strictly a fall sport and as such deserves little attention during the marble and top season, still a certain amount oi spring grind work will be done at the two schools and as such deserves mention. Ballif, who will be able to do little spring football work inasmuch as track and baseball will take up most of the time between now and the early closing date, April 28, will confine himself to showing aspirants how to handle the ball and do a bit of kicking and passing. No football suits will be issued at the Warrior stronghold. SUITS ISSUED Ernest Simkin, football coach at the Ogden High school, will issue suits the latter part of this week and will immediately begin upon an intensive training period with the hopes of securing some practice games during the spring vacation which occurs the first week in April Baseball teams will be developed at'"both of the schools to compete for the Sears Roebuck and company trophy which at the present time is the property of the Weber County High school with each team having one victory chalked up to its credit The trophy goes to the team that wins it two out of three times and with a victory each the play off will be held this year. Now that those two minor item? have been taken care of we can tun our attention to track and field mat ters. TRACK AND FIELD Ogden High with three men, al point winners in the Utah stat meet last year, on hand to form th nucleus of their squad, appear toi have the best prospects at this! writing, but then writers are noted1 for their bad predictions. Weber will have a good strong group out but none that won in either the regional or state meet last year. Heading the Tiger squad will be Bud Ellis and Lee Boerens, members of the mile relay team which won the regional and placed third in the state last year; Richard Alkema shot putter and Darrell Hall who took fourth place in the regional high jump with a leap of five feet 8 12 inches. Theo Woods, distance runner, will also make a strong bid this year. Woods competed in the City , Creek run last season placing Seventeenth. He will enter again this year and expects to be up among the leaders at the finish. OTHER CANDIDATES Other aspirants include Burrell Ashton, Jack Becker, Harold Bur- bridge, Willard Whittaker and Jack Sims in the sprints; Fred Turnquist and Clyde Greenwell in the pole vault; Merlin Woodland and Lear Summerill in the 440 and 880 and Maurice Kennedy in the 440 with Jack Peterson, and John Kinard in the jumps. Jack Long is also going after a place on the team in the shot putting event. The Weber Warriors will build their squad from the ground up with no individual outstanding unless it be Lyle McLean who hit five feet nine inches in the high jump last year at a meet in Davis although he did not touch that figure again. Wayne Stratton and McLean will also compete in the hurdles this year while Wallace Warren, Dan Gladwell and Oliver Baird will take care of the sprints. James Colletti, Warren and McLean will compete in the high jumps and Ray Cottle will complete the early season squad by tossing the weights around a bit. However the season is youngs at both schools and it is possible,hat athletes, unheard of at thistime, may come out to win the laurfels WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH 22. 1933. THE OGDEN STANDARD - EXAMINER Appeal Sounded For Revival of Punctuality Practice of Old Virtue Declared Mutually Beneficial OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Parke Petterson, Editor; Barbara J Kimball and Marjorie Wood, Associate Editors The good old virtue of punctuality seems to be more or less in the discard. We need a revival of the preachments of Washington and Franklin to revive this necessary virtue. He who fails to meet hi appointmenst, be on time, is no less a thief than he who steals silver , and gold: he steals time of others. He mars his own life, he injures others. We do not see how anyone who wishes to make a life success can possibly afford to be non- punctual. CONGRESS At the last meeting of Congress the order of the day was a debate on bi-metalism. (Will we never hear the last of that subject?) The affirmative speakers were Erma Langford and Virginia Nickols, the latter being an alumnus of the club. The negative speakers were Ellen Glines and Marion Turner. Other members of Congress were called on for criticisms, and some very excellent points were brought out. After discussion on the business for the next two or three weeks and the banquet, congress adjourned.- Mary Paquette. scaring away the mouse that two little girls were trying to catch? I should think he would love to see two girls who are not afraid of mice. I wonder how many of you have noticed Helen Brophy's inferiority complex. It only shows itself at certain times at certain places!- Frankie. This is Johnnie announcing! Have you ever seen Mary P. and Clara J. up in the gym after school, catching mice? It's great fun, evidently. (Vas you dere, Shawley?) And say, have you heard Mary Scrowcroft's laugh? She ought to get a patent for it-or is it a copyright? All you marble fiends, just read this: Lucy McNeil has a whole treasure can full of marbles. Where'd you get them, Lucy? Oh, these "clever writers!" There are too many of them to suit me. Why can't we have a king as well as a queen? Harold Rosevear feels just terrible. Last, but not least, folks, you missed something if you didn't see Dorothy crying. (Our theme song - "Isn't it Romantic?")-Johnnie. SCHOLARSHIP A $25 scholarship to Utah State Agricultural college is available to an Ogden High student according to a bulletin displayed today. Any one interested may learn the terms by reading the poster. WANTED The high school office would like the street address of J. L. Peterson. -Important communication. LOFTY QUALITIES Dorothy Paine, my ideal! What a perfect queen she would make. Graceful, charming, beautiful, sweet, lovely-I can't think of enough words to suffciently describe her. Some people say she has had every position in the school that is worth having. But think of that in this way: She is sponsor. Well, she must measure up to certain ideals before she could be a sponsor. She; was in the school play-she must have been a good actress and deserving of that honor. Being vice president of the student body simply means that she is capable of performing the few duties of a vice president. Don't hold it against her just because, she is in Carpe. Is it her fault that she is so sweet that she was wanted in that club? Therefore, give this high position of queen to a girl who is truly deserving of it and who can handle it excellently. - Dorothy Paine for queen. SENSE AND NONSENSE Think how much happier this world would be if people would put as much into their heads as they do on top of them. Book Agent: "Young man, you need this book, It will do half of your high school work for you." Dale R. Anderson: "Fine, Give me two." I wish Burp would make up his mind who he is going to vote for. He seems to be campaigning for both queens. While I'm speaking of the Classicalia don't forget that it's less than two weeks away. I wish some one would tell me if it's true the girls are going to buy their own tickets? I would also like to know the difference in the costumes of the gypsies. APPEAL FOR QUEEN My goodness, can't we get a better student body and get them to know that Hazel Lewis should be the next |
