THE O. H. S. TIGER, OCTOBER 18, 1922. Page 5 THE FORUM The Forum (the boys' debating club) continues to function in its usual successful manner. On Monday the 5th, at the regular meeting, two applicants, Grant Chan¬dler, and Elmer Gurke, held a trial debate and were voted into the club. Four more applications were made and a subject for trial debate as¬signed. The present officers of the club are: President William Hutchings Vice Pres. and Secy Lloyd Bowen By a recent amendment, members who graduate in good standing with the club will be allowed to continue as Alumni members, with the privi¬lege of debate and discussion in meetings. The present Alumni mem¬bers are: Guy Jordan and Israel Silverstein. As yet only inter-club debates have been held and the Fordney-McUmber tariff bill discussed. The first regu¬lar challenge has been extended to the Girls' Debating Society, and from the prompt manner in which they have responded to the challenge, they seemingly consider the boys "easy marks." A called meeting was held on Thursday of last week, for the pur¬pose of electing faculty advisers and for the completion of arrangements for the debate with the Girls' Club. —O-H-S— EXCHANGES THE WEBER HERALD—Glad to see you again.

IN LIGHTER MOOD Mr. Merrill Announces Teachers' Convention It is with profound regret that we announce that school will close on Thursday, October 19th at noon to remain closed until Monday, Oct. 23d on account of the Utah Educational Convention which meets in Salt Lake City, October 19, 20, 21. All teachers are required to attend this conven¬tion and as they cannot be in two places at the same time the school¬rooms are to be deserted and the poor children turned loose for a whole day and a half. Naturally we approve of teachers' conventions, for they bring inspiration and encourage¬ment, but it nearly breaks our hearts to have school dismissed just when we are getting nicely started in our work. P. S. We are touching wood as we write this! —O-H-S— G. A. A. EXPECTS BIG YEAR! The Girls' Athletic Association boasts of having the largest enroll¬ment of any organization in the High School. Coupled with this fact and the knowledge that the members are alert and full of life, a future abounding in action has been pre¬dicted. The purpose of the G. A. A. is to promote an interest in athletics outside of the school, to create a de¬sire to attain physical perfection, to acknowledge the attributes of good sportmanship, and to produce school pride and patriotism. In an attempt to gain these ends, a tennis tourna¬ment is now being staged and a swimming meet has been scheduled for the near future. The system of awards is to be carried out this year as it was last. For every athletic achievement ac¬complished outside of school, the girls will receive one point. At the end of the school year those having fifty or thirty-five points will be rewarded for their endeavors. The first meeting of the G. A. A. was held last Thursday. The new officers proved their capability by taking hold of their duties like vet¬erans. They are as follows: Presi¬dent, Madge Ashton; Vice President, Myrtle Phillpott; Secretary, Katherine Huss; Refreshment Committee, Catherine Cahill (Chairman); Helen Kerne, Zola McBride, Mildred New¬ton, Louise Calvert, Maude Pingree, Beatrice Bletcher, Marion Horton, Margaret Bell, Mary Williams, Fanny Brady, and Marindy Greenwell; Pro¬gram Committee, Nona Wallace, (Chairman); lone Paine, Fanny Greenband, Lucille Olsen, Dorothy Carlson, Edith Schofield, Katherine Kay, Vera Jones, Viola Randall, Laura Walker, Frances Gillette, Claribell Richardson; Art Committee, Rosalind Venema (Chairman); Lyle Chase, Evelyn Palmer, Aneesa Malouf, Martha Wright, and Evelyn Shaefer; Yell Committee, Dorothy Vail (Chairman); Dot Williams, Afton Haliday, Norma Mattson, and Elaine Williams; Treasurers, Althea Hodson (Chairman); Marion Wal¬lace, Grace Cleve, Edna MaeBooker, and Kathleen Quinn; Reporters, Elva King (Chairman); Virginia Greene, Marporie Roberts, Myrtle Randall, Melba Brown, and Ruth Prout.

The second meeting of the T. N. T. club was held Thursday evening after school. Plans were outlined for the coming year. Many new things will be in¬troduced by the organization this year. We are to have several pro¬grams in which first class talent will be introduced. Students and their parents will be invited to these pro-grams. Great enjoyment can be had at one of these occasions. The organization has already started to put out a booster for the Weber-Ogden game, which promises to be the best yet and those that were able to get a copy last year will agree that it will be some boost¬er if it is going to out-do the one of last year. Plans for the Christ¬mas dance to be given at the Berthana were outlined. The Christmas party will be bigger and better than last year. At the first meeting the following officers were elected: Vernon Mattson, President, Myrene Rich, Vice President. Virginia Scowcroft, Secretary and Treasurer. Philip Ring, Reporter. With these officers and forty live chemistry students the T. N. T. Club will furnish competition for any club in school. WATCH OUR SMOKE!!
