EVERYBODY BOOST FOR THAT YEAR BOOK ! ! ! The TIGER LET'S HAVE A GOOD CLASSICALIA ! ! ! VOLUME III. OGDEN, UTAH, WEDNESDAY, JAN. 31, 1923 Number 8 Girls’ Dance A success BOX ELDER GETS THE BREAKS IN FAST GAME Ogden Tigers Play Flashy Game Box Elder slipped through with a tv/o-point lead in the recent basket¬ball tussel with the Ogden Tigers. Although the Box Elderites were out¬played throughout the game, with the exception of the last few minutes, the> managed to come out victor¬ious to the noise of 24-26. Although the Brigham hall was much longer than the one in which the Tigers were used to playing, they played exceptional ball. Bill Cox twinkled for the evening with his long shots and perfect floor work. "Smitty" played his usual leading game, while Rudy surprised the fans with his basket work. Martin and Blackham kept the "potato diggers" busy with their fast floor work. The fairness of the refereeing and the speed which the players kept up, made it one of the fastest and best basketball games that has ever been played in Brigham. —O-H-S— R. O. T. C. ASSEMBLY SCORES A HIT Dancing Girls Featured An excellent assembly was held Wednesday, January 24, sponsored (in more than one sense) by the R. O. T. C. corps. The meeting was in charge of Lieutenant Colonel Emmert Lippincott. A new song arranged by Blanche Walberg and Mr. Hinchcliff, was in-' troduced by the Boys' glee club and the band. After several attempts the- student body joined in. A feature of the exceptionally good seven-act program was the ballet pre¬sented by Miss Stookey's ballet girls, who resembled suspiciously some of out "Key-dets." An interpretive dance entitled "The Sneak" was performed. The assembly committee was fortunate to have found Captain "Kidd" himself, in the city jail, for being on a spree. They brought him up and exhibited him. He sang a rousing song, accompanied by gest¬ures and facial evpression and recited a poem about a gentleman shark. Miss Madge Ashton used her dance "The Gypsy Flirt" as an excuse to flirt outrageously with members of the audience. She is equally well accomplished in both lines, dancing and flirting. Miss Adelaide Ashton gave a per¬formance worthy of an opera star in her rendition of "The Swallow." She responded to the applause with a popular number. The Lammer's junior quartet, four boys from Ogden Hi, played "Moth¬er Machree" for the next number. The quartet consisted of three cor¬nets and a trombone. Two of the cornets gave a duet, "The Friendly Rivals," a spirited, difficult piece. Then the four gave "Boy of Mine." Mr. Hendershot, G. A. R. veteran gave us a talk on patriotism. He fought in the Civil War, and is well qualified to discuss such a subject. After his short address the assembly was dismissed. —O-H-S— Mother: "Myrene, aren't you get¬ting too big to play with the boys?" Myrene: "No mother, the bigger I get, the better I like them." TIGERS OUTCLASS AMERICAN LEGION FIVE Smitty Scores 24 Points Score 32 to 15 The Tigers outclassed their op¬ponents in last Saturday's game by emerging out of the tussel with a seventeen point advantage. At the end of the first half the score was close with the Tigers in the lead two points. The American Legion cagers were completely played off their toes in the second half. Smitty bulged the Tigers' score in rapid fire fashion in this period, with his flashy basket work, caging eight goals from the field and dropping ten out of twelve free throws through the hoop. The entire Tiger squad was used in the game. Each man played his game to perfection. —O-H-S— WEBER LOSES TO BOX ELDER IN FAST GAME Box Elder Gains Leading Place in League Standing Outplaying their opponents from start to finish, the Box Elder basket- ballers romped home with a 34 to 24 victory over the touted Weber quin¬tet. By defeating the Weber cagers Friday evening, the Brighamites gained the leading place in the Ogden division. Outside of the Weber-Ogden game this fracus was the best attended in a local hall. Approximately 2,000 fans were on de^k to watch the players display their ability at throw¬ing the "ball." Although it took several minutes to get started on the scoring end of the game, that part was not neglect¬ed. Brigham fans were "treated" four times in a few seconds with baskets by Eliason, Facer and Boothe, in the first period. The Box Elderites were out in front at all times of the game, and were only compelled once to watch their step. This came in the final period, Weber caging four field goals in quick order, placing them¬selves only two points in the rear.. One feature of the game was that there was no umpire, and that more than one foul was overlooked. Some schools ARE lucky! Who they played: Box Elder Weber Facer r. g Budge Eliason 1. g Couch Boothe c Anderson Burt r. g Halliday Holton 1. g Price Referee—Mughan CADET BATALION HOLDS FIELD MEET R. O. T. C. Starting Something New Last week the R. O. T. C. unit held a field meet under the supervi¬sion and direction of Sergeant Hallo¬way. The Sergeant suggested the affair several days in advance and made all the preparations for the meet. This is something new in the Ogden high school, but is hoped that it may be continued in the future. The arrangement of events were as follows: Firt Event Relay race, 16 men from each com¬pany. Second Event Equipment race, one cadet from each company. Third Event Potato race, two cadets from each company. Fourth Event Three-legged race, two cadets from each company. Fifth Event Gallery competition, two cadets from each company. There were three places for each event, the winner getting three points; second place, two points; and third place, one point. The meet was held on Monroe av¬enue with everybody in the batalion present. Let's have more of 'em. —O-H-S— A LASTING MEMORY OF THE OGDEN-BOX ELDER GAME If you want accommodations or any acts of courtesies, just run up to Box Elder to a basketball game. Those who were to the Ogden-Box Elder game know the true meaning of this statement; but for the benefit of those who were not at the game I would like to "tip" you off as to what to expect when you go into the Box Elder high school to a basketball game. In the first place the hall is not large enough to accommodate enough people to wring an ant's neck. Un¬less you are there two or three hours before the game, you will not be al-lowed to sit down. Why? Box Elder has the preference. There were approximately one hun¬dred Ogden students at the last game with the "Beat Diggers." About twenty of them were fortunate enough to get a seat. The rest of the bunch was scattered throughout the hall, some in one corner and some in another. So there you are! But to be a sport is half the game! We fail to see Box Elder's sportsmanship. GIRLS' DANCE SCORES A HIT Masculine Sex Well Pleased We have enjoyed parties and parties this year, but none have been so unique and novel as the Girls' Leap Year party given at ,the Berth¬ana, Jan. 26th. The girls made the dates, called for the boys, and ar¬ranged the programs. There were approximately 200 couples present and the girls found themselves be¬wildered in trying to dance with fifty fellows they liked, when the limit was twenty-four. It was one chance of a lifetime and the girls took advantage of it. Without Mrs. Newcomb, Mrs. Coolidge and Miss Dorothy Irene Crum as patronesses, the party could not have been such a decided success. Among the fairest present were: Phil Ring, in a dainty blue taffita frock with clusters of rosebuds and silver lace. _ Marcus Mattson, black lace and silver cloth. Atwell Wolfer, blue silk and gold metal cloth. Hassett Shuffleberger, white organ¬dy. Ray Kirkland, pink crepe de chine and silver lace. Frank Sullivan, red and green satin. Macnab Boyd, sky-blue organdy. Theron Jost, flame colored dress to match his hair, and new patent leather pumps. Bob Brady, brown sack cloth and gold lace. Charles Keller, black satin and black jet. Tommy Norton, red velvet and black lace. —O-H-S— ANOTHER SENIOR CLASS MEETING The seniors gathered together in room 213 last Thursday to talk about class rings, pins, pictures and every¬thing that the class has to think about. Mr. Milton Kreines announced that the seniors couuld get a very nice picture from the Ford Studio at the reasonable price of $3.50 per dozen. If two dozen pictures are ordered, a large picture will be given gratis. The "astounding" report that the seniors were not responding to the call of Mr. Macnab Boyd, senior president, and chief ring salesman, was made. Get busy seniors!!! Cash in for your rings and pins now!! —O-H-S— RIFLE TEAM IN COMPETITION WITH OAKLAND SCHOOLS The rifle team is now engaged in a competitive shoot with the Oakland high schools. Our old friend Colonel Lawrence is in charge of the R. O. T. C. unit in Oakland and has made a wager that the Ogden high school cannot defeat his unit in rifle marks¬manship. The fellows on the team have been working hard for the last three months and expect to do so until they have won everything that the United States can offer in the way of competitions, especially the Hearst trophy. WILL YOU DO US A FAVOR? We thank you for being loyal enough to buy a Tiger. You are help¬ing the school and the paper too. We ask you, as a reader of the Tiger to help the Tiger staff and the student body officers in their efforts to wake up the 90% "Dead" students that are allowed to roam around the interior and vicinity of the Ogden high school. You who are buying the Tiger, are the real supporters of the school and its paper and can do more to¬wards putting the others "next to themselves" than we can. What we ask is this—that you buy your paper for yourself and family only. That you will not give it to some one who has waited for just such a chance. You might say, "I just spent my LAST dime for this paper, try it yourself," if asked by a "deadhead" for your Tiger. SUPPORT THE TIGER! THINK ABOUT THE YEARBOOK!
