Clubs Yearbook Pictures Will Be Reward For Finest Results OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Parke Petterson, Editor: Barbara Kimball and Marjorie Wood, Associate Editors J s Announcing competition among the clubs to get the most points be- r fore the Classicalia is over. What y points? Don't be impatient! I'm c getting to that. For each ticket the c members of a club sell two points will be given. For each 10 cents profit made on the booths one point 1 will be given; 100 points will be s given for 100 per cent attendance in costume of club members: 75 g points for 75 per cent attendance in costume, and so on. Fifty extra j points will be given if the costumes x can be distinguished from all others r by some particular color, nationality, s etc. This does not mean that the jj costumes are to be elaborate or expensive. On the contrary, simple y costumes are what we want. Twenty-five points will be given on j -3Corations of the booths. It is not necessary for a club to take a booth at the Classicalia to have a part in this contest. All clubs are invited , to participate. The more, the merrier. - The reward for each of the four ( clubs receiving the highest number of points will be a picture of the club's booth or, if the club does not " have a booth, a group picture of the I club members, on a special page in the year-book and the satisfaction of knowing that they did their share in putting over a bigger and better Classicalia, We want the support of all the clubs in this contest, so start working now for the; honor of being the club with the most school spirit.-Classicalia Committee. ORATORY WINNERS Believe me, after hearing the debates on bi-metalism, I know considerably more about the subject than I did before. The finals for those seeking places on the state debating team were held at three- thirty Friday, in room 305. There were two teams, consisting of seven boys and one girl. The time was five and three, and I'm telling you there was one rush trying to tell all they knew in five minutes. After what seemed to be hours of suspense, the door opened and the judges came out. Here are the lucky ones: Grant Burton, Gordon Hudson, Roland Stone and Roy Ross, The two alternates are Anthon Yarbrough and Sidney Gordon. Congratulations, all of you, and here's hoping you get to work and bring honor to your Alma Mater.- M. P. FIELD TO BE FENCED We hope to get a fence about our new athletic field during the week. We hope also that a sprinkling system will be put in and the field sowed to grass early this spring so that we shall have a fine athletic field in the fall. OGDEN VS. DAVIS A group of boys from Forum debated Davis High on the state question, "Resolved: That the nations of the world adopt a bi-metalic standard of exchange," Thursday. Lowell James and Ralph Berret upheld the negative for Forum while Mr. Naylor and Mr. Riley up- jheld the affirmative for Davis in lone debate. In the other debate, Bob Brown and Russell Norris of Forum upheld the affirmative while Miss Evans and Mr. Kesler maintained the negative. Those who were fortunate enough to hear the debates, were very much impressed by the skill of the debaters, the debates being extremely interesting and exceptionally well given. That familiar noise in the pipes in the library. Bud Ellis if he was not leaning on the locker next to Lucy's. Mrs. Raymond, when you started to look for books. That dear old mire in the back. Well, seniors, you have only a short time left. Let's all get together and make a record that will live with the school when we are not here to walk the halls. And when we leave let's not forget the1 dear old school and back all its undertakings.-A Sad Senior. WEARING O' THE GREEN We had an excellent assembly last Friday, from the moment we stepped in the door. There we were presented with a beautiful, green, all-day sucker. The assembly was under the direction of Phi Lambda Tau, a shooting club of which Miss Barbara Kimball is president. The first number was a song, "My Wild Irish Rose," sung by the girls trio of Weber college, j The Rev. P. F. Kennedy gave a very interesting talk on Ireland, the schools and amusements, and I'm sure that I, for one, would just love a trip to Ireland. The trio sang "Why Can't This Night Go on Forever?" a number which was thoroughly enjoyed. Next, we had two Irish readings, "Nora and the Twins," and "Mrs. Casady on Lawn Tennis," given by Mrs. Mary Crosby. Max Penton sang a vocal solo, "I Wake Up YES, WE WOULD Wouldn't you miss: Mr. Merrill's little talks on how to Lee Boreans without his usual . stick of gum. : Smiling," after which Mr. Knapp entertained us with his xylophone. He played "When Irish Eyes are Smiling" and "Kiss Me Again." I We then turned to the business of ' having campaign speeches and vat- r ling for two queens. The following " orated for their ideals! Verne Springer for Mary Drumiler; Anthon Yarbrough for Hazel Lewis; " Norman Carroll for Ruth Cross; ; Grant Goddard for Dora Bundy; 1 Reed Berrett for Melba Randall; 3 Roy Ross for Dorothy Paine; Jerry Seale for Bernice Lindquist and Joe Evertsen for Helen Sessions. After hearing of all the charms 5 of each girl, it was hard to vote, 1 but anyway, may the best girls win! j -Mary Paquette. WONDERINGS I wonder: j Why people trip over worn steps. I Why some rooms are hot, others cold. Why the library has cobwebs. Why we never notice the pictures on the walls. Why fountains are so popular. Why students get lazy. ; Why teachers go gray. 1 Why it is hard to hear in assem- 3 blies.-Mary Joe Hellewell. FAMILY IDEA The smokeless smoker will be held Friday, March 24, at seven-thirty . p. m. The admission charge will be 10 cents for all students in Ogden city, (including Weber college) and 25 cents for adults. If a father and son or a mother and daughter come t together they will both be admitted n for twenty-five cents. The program will consist of box- n ing, wrestling and bamboo fencing. We have such artists as Ross "Kid" Lynch and Owen Gladwell parti- e cipating. The 25-round main event in boxing promises to be a thriller, Max "Feewee" Loll vs. Torval "Gorilla" Nelson. We will also see plenty of action in the five-hour time limit wrestling match between Joe "Slim" Turner and George "Strangler" Gardner. The two boys doing the fencing will try to show us a few of the high points of the art. As you all know, the money goes toward the school flag, so let's be there 100 per cent. Famous last words: Who have I got a grudge against?-L. G. ' Twenty-five tons of grey mullet,. . equivalent to about 30,000 fish, were ; found when a railway dry dock was ,!pumped out at Plymouth, England. TUESDAY EVENING, MARCH 21, 1933. Pupils Urged To Bring Friends To Contests General Response Needed To Put Over Smokeless Smoker OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Parke Petterson, Editor; Barbara Kimball and Marjorie Wood, Associate Editors j On Friday evening of this week lour school (come on, students, our I school) is putting on a smokeless smoker guaranteed to be the best and the biggest ever held in the annals of good old O. H. S. Such notables as Battling Lynch of O. H. S. and Spike Gladwell of Weber County High are boxing. This bout j alone is easily worth the admission ! fee. Students, let's all be boosters for our school and bring Our friends to see this great event, put on to help buy the school a new flag.-Committee-D. L. J. P. S. More about it in the coming notes-Watch! AN OBSERVATION Have you ever noticed, in your many trips through the halls, a beautiful young lady of such singularly striking appearance that it seemed as if something forced you to turn around to look at her? You have seen blondes, brunettes and redheads, but this girl has them all beaten. Dark brown hair, wavy and fine; rosy red lips, always up- turned in one of the sweetest smiles I have ever seen; eyes, oh, those eyes! Dark brown, almost black, yet sparkling as if filled with millions of tiny diamonds; fringed with long, black, curly lashes. Has she personality: Oh, what a foolish question! She has personality-plus! Just think, what a beautiful queen she would make. Her dark beauty against the background of bright colors, significant of gypsies. Just one glance at this girl will convince you that she should be queen. Therefore, cast your ballot for the one and only Dorothy Paine .'-Mademoiselle. BOYS BACK Our team returned from the tournament to school on Monday. They report having had a very good time in Salt Lake City. They did not win the championship-not quite the consolation prize, but they were in the game the four days and that's something. They made a very creditable showing. NEW LAWN PROMISED Workers are spading the curbing lawns. This means a new lawn here. Also we are promised new trees this spring. Our grounds look spic and span, and we are going to be proud of our school surroundings. Yes, before we forget it, the men are working today on the fence that is to surround our athletic field. We surely appreciate all these improvements. MODEL FURNACE ROOM Students who imagine that our boiler room is a dark, dingy, dirty, catchall of a place would be very much surprised if they should go down there and see what we really have. It is almost a place of beauty, clean, bright, inviting. Freshly calcimined, painted, cleaned, it is quite as attractive as a class room. We are rather proud of the appearance of our building throughout, and we must give our janitors due credit for their earnest efforts in trying to keep our surroundings clean and pleasant. Some credit also must go to community workers who have done considerable work about our building and grounds this I winter and spring. |
