Show The TIGER VOLUME III. OGDEN, UTAH, MONDAY, APRIL 23, 1923 Number 13 O.H.S. STUDENT WIN!! RICH CONTEST GIRLS HOLD ANNUAL PARTY Boys Enjoy Themselves Too Last Friday, the Girls had their annual masquerade, and the boys their annual roost party. Both af¬fairs were well attended. The stunts performed by the var¬ious classes and organizations were cleverly done and afforded much amusement. The first number, from the Girls' Association, was entitled "Merindy's Beaux" and brought down the house. Other stunts were, "Pier First Date," from the Juniors. Well know advertisements from the Shema Alpha Club, "Gathering Nuts," from the Seniors, "Senior Dramatics," from the Sophomores and "The Leather Pushers." The costumes were simply killing. It was a close race between Myrene Rich and Katherine who were dressed as bowery toughs, and Louise Zeller and Toots Finch, who were dressed old fashioned, for the prize, but Myrene and Kate won. Miss Barbour, Watkins, Dobbs, and Mrs. Whitaker were little girls with beautiful curls, Miss Fife wore romp¬ers. Miss Marshall wore a Spanish costume. Mrs. Coolidge wore a snappy French maid effect. Miss Smith was an adorable colonial lady. Miss Good¬win, who won the teacher's prize, wore a gown of tasteful Scotch plaid with the long full skirt that is so much the rage. Miss Erica Berne won the prize for ttje prettiest cos¬tume. There was an orchestra, and every¬body danced with everybody else. Ice cream galore and all-day suck¬ers rounded out a well spent evening. —O-H-S— PROMINENT STUDENTS SPEND NIGHT IN MUNICIPAL HOTEL After the city fire department had been called and the department's sky hooks put into use, several prorn- inet students were dragged off the roof of our dearly loved school, hand¬cuffed (bound, gagged, and scared) and taken to the village "hoosgow." Around midnight, the fond parents of these said students began a cam¬paign for money. One by one these desperate characters were taken from "sing sing" and left in their places was twenty-five dollars. This went kind o' hard with some of the "dads." Saturday morning marked the end of the greatest boys' party that has ever been held in the Ogden High School. Ask At Wolfer—he'll tell you! —O-H-S— WHY THE TIGERS WERE LATE Due to the fact that there is only one linotype machine doing work for the trade in town, and that this ma¬chine, which does the Tiger work, was in uninterruptable use on some very important material, the Tigers were forced to wait their turn to be linotyped. I am very sorry that those students who really enjoy reading a Tiger were disappointed this last week. Editor. —O-H-S— COMMMERCIAL CLUB STAGES GREAT ASSEMBLY Queen Smitty Takes Lead¬ing Part To advertise Pinafore, the Glee Club and the Commercial Club united to give one of the best assemblies we have had this year. The Glee Club gave us some selections from the opera. The Sailor chorus sang and the whole chorus united. It was very creditable. Then the Commercial stunt was staged, a take-off of the Classicalia. A procession of Queens and Maids came down the center aisle. The Queen testefully arrayed in a- bath-robe and carrying a beautiful fan, was surrounded by maids, decked out in rare Turkish towels and other beautiful and rare materials. The maids unveiled the Queen and them-selves, to. much applause. To enter¬tain the Queen, a "Lemon Dance,,' "Dance of the Seven Veils,,' and "Argentine Tango" were performed. After these marvelous exhibitions of terpsichorean skill the Queen retired and so did the students. —O-H-S— A NEW RIFLE RANGE! WHY NOT? Haven't our boys earned a Riflle Range that is worthy of the name? We wish you could go to Salt Lake and see the wonderful shooting gal¬leries at both East and West High. If you could see those galleries with their good lighting system, clean mats for the boys to lie upon, car- | riers for their targets, a warm dry place inside to practice, and many other conveniences and could com¬pare them with our Range you would be filled with wonder. You would wonder how our boys could possibly win anything when you considered the hardships and annoyances they have to put up with. Our range is a mere shack, and out doors at that. No matter whether the wind blows, it. rains or the sun shines they must practice. Even in the coldest weath¬er they must run in and out after their targets and depend on a little old stove for warmth and comfort. Their mats are cinder beds on the ground. Could any place be any less encouraging to a "Championship Team?" Talk it up, students! If you determine to have a real range for our team, we can get a range which will be a fit place for a cham¬pionship team to practice and "win" in next year. —O-H-S— FORUM DEFEATS BOXELDER Brigham beaten on home floor for the first time. The O. H. S. Forum, represented by William Hutchings and Milton Kreines defeated Boxelder High which was represented by Miss Facer and Miss Compton. The Question debated was "Resolved that all in¬heritances over $500,000 be used by the Government for a pubile fund." This is the first of a triangular series of debates among Davis, Box- elder, and Ogden. The others will be held soon. Contrary to the custom when Ogden travels, there were quite a few loyal' students on hand, many of whom were members of the Forum. The Faculty was represented by Mrs. Camp, Mrs. Hessler, and Mr, Smith. The judge taken by the Forum was the Rev. Enman of Ogden. —O-H-S— HEARST TROPHY RE-PRESENTED TO OGDEN HIGH AT THEATRE PARTY Individual Medals Presented By Hearst Reresentative One of the greatest events that has come to the Ogden High School and the city of Ogden was the Theatre Party at the Orpheum theatre, at ; which the Hearst Rifle Championship ! was re-presented to the Ogden High School Rifle Team, i The R. O. T. C. was there in a i body, the school band was there I with all the music they had, the stu- i dent body was there in a mass, the I public w as there with all the en¬thusiasm in the world, and above • were the honored guests. Mr. Hearst's representative from Chicago, Mr. Bickett was here to re-present the cup to us. Mr. Bickett left a sick bedy in Chicago to come I out here in the west to see for him- | self that championship team and the city in which the;' live. He found that the Utahans were boosters and proud of their honors. Governor Charles Mabey was also present and delivered to the audience a wonderfuul speech, in which he said that the greatest characteristic man can have is the will to fight when he must. Miss Edna Mae Booker assisted in the presentation of the medals and spoke about the inadequate range that the boys had to shoot on to win the trophy. Sergeant Hollaway received praise as coach of the team for his efforts with the boys and Captain Ryder was also complimented on the work his cadets were doing. Superintendent was the chairman of the affa)ir. —O-H-S— OGDEN CRACK RIFLE MEN MOVIE STARS Fifteen new stars have recently ap¬peared in the movie heaven. It has been rumored that not a few of Ogden's Rifle Teammen are con¬templating signing contracts with any one of the great moving picture pro¬ducers for the coming season. The only question in the mind of the boys is which company's contract to accept. It is hard for them to choose be¬tween Hollywood and New York. The International New camera has just completed a film which will be shown all over the world. The Governor and other State represen¬tatives who attended the meeting at the Orpheum Theatre last Tuesday expressed feelings of great pride in that they were "shot" in the same pictures with these lustrious new stars. Mayor Francis has had the honor to appear in two films with the team. The Fox News man has also made a film of the boys receiving their trophy and doing some of their excellent shooting which has won such fame for them as marksmen. These films will be shown at some future date at the Ogden theatres. It is assured the theatre managers that they will have a full house when Ogden's famous movie stars appear. —O-H-S— LUNCHEONS! LUNCHEONS! DANCE! "When do we eat," has become the latest motto of our "Rifle Team." The boys have been the recipients of many lovely entertainments in the I last few weeks. To say that these honors are not due the fellows would be untrue, but it is also true that the clubs and other organizations that have so kindly entertained the boys are to be regarded with all good feel- 1 ing and gratefulness. It is a splendid thing for community clubs and groups of people to recognize in this ; way the honor which has been 1 brought to Ogden City and High School by the team. On Wednesday, March the twenty- eighth the Rotary Club entertained the Hearst Team, Capt. Ryder and Sgt. Halloway at a luncheon in "the : Web er Club dining room. A very enjoyable time was reported by all who attended. On Thursday of the same week the entire team, with Capt. Ryder, Sgt. Halloway and. the Team Sponsor, were entertained by the Kiwanis Club, at a luncheon. A very lovely musical program was presented by the Music Department of the Weber College. The Kiwanis Club spokes¬man gave the team a very hearty welcome and commented of the suc¬cess of the team in winning the Hearst Trophy. He also compli¬mented the boys for putting Ogden "on the Map." The next affair Avas at Becker Brewery. The Becker Products Com¬pany was host to the team on Sat¬urday, April seventh at a splendid luncheon. And last but not least, one of the Lligh School organizations has waked up sufficiently to realize that Ogden Hight School has a "Championship" team in its midst. The Club are en¬tertaining the club this afternoon at a Matinee Dance. Everybody go and show the team that we really do ap¬preciate what thev have done for Ogden High School. —O-H-S— OGDEN HIGH STUDENT WINS FIRST PLACE IN ANNUAL ORATORICAL CONTEST Isabella Carter won first place in the annual Rich Oratorical contest held at the Central Junior High School Monday afternoon. She spoke on "A Moral War." Erma Robinson of the Davis High School of Kaysville was awarded second place. He subject was, "A Plea for a Better America." The other contestants were; John O'Neill, Ogden High; R. C. Clark, Davis; Theron Hatch, and Miss E. Baird of Box Elder. In past years the event has been staged between students of the Og¬den High School and the Weber High, with the rivalry running at a high rate. The withdrawal of Weber from the contest resulted in the tri¬angular event. Davis and Box Elder were our opponents in this contest. , Hazel Stevens of the University of Utah, R. E. Brockbank and Elizabeth Fitzgerald of the West High School, all of Salt Lake, were the judges. Music was furnished by the Ogden High School orchestra. —O-H-S— |
