Show Page 6 THE O. H. S. TIGER, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 28, 1923. COMMERICAL CLUB PROGRAM GIVEN At the last weekly meeting of the Commercial Club a very pleasing and interesting program was given by the club members. Miss Jennie Callahan and Miss Fannv Greenband were the committee in charge and they are to be complimented on the good pro¬gram which they arranged.. Law¬rence Russell gave a reading which was enjoyed by all present. We don't remember the name but it was all about gold and the Yukon. Sounds good, doesn't it? Alyson Smith re¬galed the club with some of his in¬imitable wit. Of course every one enjoyed what the "blond flash" had to say. Cecil McDonald entertained with a very pretty violin solo. She was accompanied on the piano by Esther Taylor. Miss Margery Knud- son' demonstrated to those ' present her ability as an Opera singer. There is no doubt that the Commercial Club . will some day be very proud of this coming "Grand Opera Star." We have also discovered a veritable gold mine in Miss Greenband. She gave the reading "Fleurette" with such as¬tonishing ability that every one was very much surprised and so pleased. We hope Miss Greenband will favor us again and very soon at that. Ade¬line Eels and May Curtis gave a take off on "Mr. Gallager and Mrs. Sheen." In these two we have discovered two more brilliant performances. Their make-up and acting' was very comi¬cal and was appreciated by the audi¬ence. Miss Margaret Jones accom¬panied the girls on the piano. Mr. Leigh, faculty advisor of the club, told the members several dark and deep secrets about coming affairs of much interest to Commercial Club ^embers. The club has a very active and progressive spring program out¬lined. All members are urged to be present at the next meeting. New members are being added almost every week in the place of old mem¬bers who have lost their pep and in¬terest. In this way the Commercial Club believe they can be the liveliest and most up-to-date club in the High School. —O-H-S— LETTERS OF CONGRATULATION ARE RECEIVED BY OGDEN HIGH Since the announcement of the winning of the Hearst Trophy by the Ogden High School, several letters of congratulation have been received by Mr. Merrill and Sergeant Hollo-way. Following is a letter received by Mr. Merrill from the president of the Gooding College, Gooding, Idaho: Mr. A. M. Merrill, Ogden High School, Ogden, Utah. My Dear Principal Merrill: I was greatly rejoiced today when I read that your boys had again car¬ried away the national honors in rifle shooting. Congratulations to you, your teaching force, the team and all the boys and girls. I still remember with much pleas¬ure the good time I had with you the other day. Very truly, C. W. Tenney. Another letter received by Sergeant Holloway from a friend in Chicago was received Friday. This man was in Chicago at the time that the re¬turns for the shoot were received. The letter: Sgt. Ed. Holloway, Ogden, Utah Dear Sgt.: The last night's paper, of which I am sending you a copy, contained the best news ever; that of the O. H. S., R. O. T. C. Rifle Team's victory in the Hearst Trophy shoot. I want to congratulate you and the rifle team on the good work. Almost everywhere we hear some one talking of the "good shooters" of OGDEN. You sure put Ogden on the map. Here's your health and good name; May the Ogden High School Rifle Team never be beaten in any contest. Now, men, let's see you cop the N. T. C. shoot. Sincerely your friend, (Signed) Lester M. Felt. —O-H-S— ASSEMBLY OF THURSDAY 22 Marcus ran the assembly Thursday or a change. It seemed good to be- lold his beaming face again. The first number on the program was a piano solo, "Fantaisie Im¬promptu" by Chopin, played by Miss Miriam Cain. Miss Watkins, who did such won¬derful work on the school play, read to us for the first time. Her first number was a Japanese dialect story, Glory. We all wept over the tragic ending. The next was a humorous selection from O. Henry, "The Count and the Wedding Guest." The honored guest of the day was Will Rogers, who somehow resem¬bled Sammy Freedman. He had a clever line of patter and then he sang Mr. Gallagher and Mr. Shean. ' Philip Ring announced that if the T. N. T. could get a foothold it would try to pull the Commercial Club through a fire'-hose. Mr. Smith accepted the challenge. Can you imagine two, whole period assemblies in one week? Well week before last we had two assemblies and no disagreeable after-effects. , The first one on Monday was held to let us hear Dean Tenney, of Good¬ing College, Idaho. Professor Ten¬ney spoke on taking advantage of high-school opportunities. He hept us laughing the whole time. The band furnished the music for the occasion and gave us several peppy marches. We finally met our famous rifle team. Sergeant Holdaway, who coached our prize team, spoke very briefly, and introduced us to every member. We claim and our assertion ha& foundation, that we have the best bunch of gua exploders in the coun¬try. Then, on Friday, the same week, mind you, the T. N. T. Club staged an assembly. Miss Myrene Rich was official referee. A six-piece orchestra composed of T. N.T. members opened the meeting with "After Every Party." Bonita Scowcroft, read an Italian dialect piece, "Crippled Jim," in her usual very acceptable manner. Josephine and Leola Manzel, billed as the Gold Dust Twins, put on an original song stunt. The day's address was delivered by Superintendent Hppkins who has just returned from a Superintendent's Convention in Cincinnatti. He told some humorous occurrences, and reviewed some of the speeches he had heard. We were very glad to see him back, even if most of us didn't know he had gone away. Miss Evelyn Corey, premiere dan- seuse, danced a serenade from the Spanish Carnival. She responded to the applause with a dance of "Seven Smoke Rings in which the T. N. T. tried to show off their chemical knowledge „and smoke us out. The orchestra played "Who Cared" and "Open Your Arms.." A feature of this act was the fancy dancing in the hall by Mr. Ring and Miss Fisher. —O-H-S— "Well Hardy, do you drink the same as ever?" "Not the same, but just as much."

After going to the Jensen Candy Company, where Miss Booker suc¬ceeded in obtaining a box of candy, the party started on its way. A very pleasant hour was spent on the road to Salt Lake, particularly due to the witty remarks of Rowland Browning. On reaching Salt Lake the party went to the East Side High School where they were just in time to witness the cadets of this school drilling. Cadet Major Rollings and the Sergeant, conducting the drill, gave the party a cordial welcome and congratulations on the Rifle Team's success. After watching the drill for a while Major Rollings conducted the party to the R. O. T. C. head¬quarters and then to the rifle range, where the Major's sponsor was met. Major Rollings then took the party over to the school building, showing many points of interest. The main event of the trip occurred here when Rowland Browning on seeing two beautiful East Side girls, broke from the party and succeeded in getting the girls to talk to him. It took the five remaining members of the troupe to get him away from these girls. The party then left the school very well satisfied with what they had seen and done. From here they drove to the West Side High School where-they were again given a very hearty welcome from the Commander. We were again congratulated for our success in the Hearst competition. The Command¬ant showed the party the R. O. T. C. headquarters and their new Rifle Range which is under construction. After this the "Happy Six" drove up town where they purchased some morsels to eat and set, out for home. When the outskirts of the city was reached the party commenced to de-molish the food, accompanied by some more witty remarks from Mr. Browning, Clyde Stone also offering some help. On reaching Farmington, Rowland tried to persuade Miss Booker to get out and spend a while in the city, but due to the fact that Sergeant Stone would not consent the party did not linger. When the "Happy ''Six" reached Layfcon, they stopped to refresh them¬selves. Miss Booker succeeded in get¬ting the "Soda Jerk" of the Drug Store, to make a mixture which was intitled the "Edna Mae Special." Each member sampled some of this mixture; no serious effects have re¬sulted so far. The rest of the trip was spent with singing (each member singing a dif¬ferent song). The party arrived at the High School at 3:20 p. m., very well pleased with their day's trip. Down south there lived a negro who was crippled, and consequently was unable to do any mannual labor. His wife was blessed with the un¬common name of "Combustion." And as a result of this he was called "Nitrogen," because he was unable to support "Combustion." Smith: Brown gets up with the lark— Zinn—Yes, and takes a swallow before breakfast.
