CADETS NAME SPONSORS BY POPULAR VOTE New Method of Choosing Termed Agreeable To All OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen, Associate Editor Monday was important in the his¬tory of Ogden High school. For the first time sponsors were chosen, not by the captains, but by the boys in each company. This method of colecting the fortunate girls is very democratic and agreeable to all . Phyllis Mayer is the sponsor of the lieutenant colonel. Dorothy Hall is the sponsor of the major. Com-pany A chose Dixie Scowcroft; Com¬pany B, Clara Young; Company C, Barbara Foulger; Company D, Ruth LaVin Cragun; the band, Dorothy Anderson. No lovelier girls could have had the honor; to them the student body extends its heartiest and sin-eerest congratulations. Their cap¬tains will be selected in the near future. Have you ever wondered if any benefit is derived from a meeting between parent and teacher? At one time I thought of such a meet¬ing as detrimental to myself. My parents and teachers would discover all the weak points in my nature. This idea is entirely mistaken. Through such a meeting, a com¬mon bond of sympathy and a mu¬tual understanding of the student is developed. The parent, realizing the work the school is trying to ac¬complish, can help the student more profitably. The teachers by con¬tacting the parents can gain some idea of the needs of the student and can help to create for him a situ¬ation better suited for his require¬ments. On Wednesday, November 7, Og¬den High is endeavoring to acquaint the parents with the faculty and with the work accomplished. The presence of the parents is necessary to make, this event successful; therefore, the parents are urged to visit classes and to attend the spe¬cial student program to be given in the evening. SUBS LOSE TO MORGAN Ogden High subs journeyed to Morgan last Friday to lose a foot¬ball game by a score of 13 to 6, the game being as dull as a game of checkers. In the first six minutes of play the Morgan High eleven scored two touchdowns and from that time until the half, although no more counters were registered, they proceeded to pound the Ogden team to pieces. First downs for the Mor¬gan squad were rapid and regular, and it was only such unlucky breaks as a bad pass from center, or a fum¬ble, or a momentary return of spirit on the part of the Ogden team that kept them from scoring regularly. The second half, however, was played on even terms, if not a bit in favor of Ogden, and the Tigers succeeded in the last minute of play in scoring a touchdown on a pass from Kinnard to Agurre. Al Morby, guard, was a tower of strength for the Ogden team and was very often directly responsible for the ball carrier halting or being halted on the line of scrimmage. The playing of the Ogden team wasn't nearly as brilliant as the preceding Monday when they man¬aged to beat the Box Elder Bees, 7-0.—Frantzen Todd. CLUB BULLETINS Hello everybody! This is your S. W. E. club re¬porter speaking to you through the courtesy of the Ogden High School Notes. I bring to you the important events that have taken place in this club during the past month. Flash—Club enjoys theatre party October 22. A grand time was en¬joyed by all. Flash—Elzada Carlson gets part in school play. Only junior stu¬dent! More power to you, Elzada. Flash—Officers for ensuing six weeks were elected October 16. They are: Ronald Cole, president; Helen Abbott, vice president; Beth Brown¬ing, secretary; Itsy Greenband, par¬liamentarian, and Marjorie Hatch, reporter.—Marjorie Hatch. A brown purse was lost Thurs¬day in second or third floor hall. If found, please return to office.— Evelyn Lund, Room 204. HOME ECONOMICS The Home Economics club is in need of more members, although they are progressing very nicely. At their last meeting they had a mem¬bership of eleven, and elected cOmmittees to arrange entertainments during the year. The girls are trying to decide whether they wantec pins or rings for their club emblems. Please, girls, come out to our meet¬ing next Wednesday in Room 100, immediately after school.—Helen Wolthuis, reporter. ASSEMBLY Friday morning, Forum entertained us with a fast moving "meller-dramer." George Lowe was master of ceremonies, and Larry Evans furnished us with spine-chill¬ing music. Paul Packer was ably cast as the villain, and Bob Buswell, the woman in the case, was too, too divine. Blaine Larsen was very good in his imitation of a certain act¬ress. What a bartender Strat Smith made! Conrad (another of the Smiths) touched our hearts deeply with his pathetic pleading. Dan Alsup played the part of the poor farmer who was about to lose the old homestead. The amusing dance presented by four little boys with pink ribbons in their hair was an added treat. The assembly was enjoyed by all; we hope we have more of this type in the future.—Louise Koster. FINE LIBRARY Among many things of which Og¬den High school can feel proud is our library. It is fairly large, containing five thousand books, and it covers every phase of material. The books are arranged systemati¬cally, enabling the students them¬selves to find the material they wish. The fiction books are placed on the shelves alphabetically ac¬cording to the name of the author. The non-fiction books are arranged in ten classes, each class having a number. For instance, the 600 num¬bered books are classed under gen¬eral works. The 500 numbered books are science, 800 are literature, and so on throughout the list. Take advantage of this great op¬portunity! Enrich your mind by reading.—Elzada Carlson. THIS AND THAT Mr. Peterson is up to his old tricks again. Imagine using a picture of George Washington to discourage the telling of fibs. There were a number of long faces around school Monday. How did the temporary officers know that the cadets were to choose the spon¬sors? Who were the fellows and part¬ners who went to Salt Lake City Saturday and found that they "couldn't take it?" Grant R. is not the woman hater he pretends to me. From all appearances, the little lady from Idaho should know. Besides being football players, the Tigers went to Logan the other day and learned just how a duck lives. —Peter Zane. |
