Show FIRST GAME Last Friday a band of huskies from Preston came charging into the Tiger lair and at once began to stir some excitement for the un¬suspecting Tigers. Not satisfied with winning a vic¬tory, the Idaho team insisted upon upsetting the dope pot by defeating our team 19 to 0. Even though we did not win, it would be impossible not to admire the grim determina¬tion with which the Preston boys gained tneir three touchdowns. After the game Friday, the Tigers would be justified in feeling that they have met one of the best teams in the league. We hope they will profit by the experience they must have gained in their first league attempt. The student body looks forward to the next game. Better luck next time, Tigers! THE MOON Languidly she sails Adrift in the blue, Casting her beams On the sweet silvery dew. Now hiding, now weaving She slid.es in and out The clouds, which are heaving Their cheeks as they pout. Forever, not ending She goes on this cruise, To each heart she's lending Sweet joy, erasing blues. —Beth Spencer. VANITY It has been a proved- theory that woman is the vainest thing on earth. But not now. While hurriedly walking down the hall in an attempt to get home on time for lunch, I accidentally bump¬ed into a fellow in the act of combing his nair in front of a goodsized mirror plastered with adhesive tape to the door of his locker. With a look of contempt I humbly begged nis pardon and walked on. Glancing about to see if I could find any more looks of disgust. I went on my way to relate to my fe¬male friends my strange findings. Oh! This modern, high school!— Kathryn McGowan. THIS AND THAT Well, my friends, here I am back again! Say, out the halls have been busy lately. Some competition always enlivens interest, but too much is just too much. What do you think, George? Well, Burp, we are glad to have some of that rare humor again. I only hope that nothing depended on the answers to Nero's questions. Look me up, Nero; I know most of the answers. Say, you junior girls, since you seem to be the main attraction in the halls, why not turn your efforts to selling student body tickets? When you look up in his eyes, say, "how would you like to buy one from me?" Then watch the ther¬mometer rise! It seems that in this modern gen¬eration the girls have started to serenade the boys. I heard one the other day that was on this order, "Abbie, Abbie, my only and only!" He didn't seem to like the attention though, not even when P. M., B. L. and M. G. were doing the serenad¬ing. Well, I suppose I'll have to get myself a little blue notebook to remember everything I see. Goodby. 'till we meet again!—Luke. MAKE GOOD SHOWING The R.O.T.C. boys made their first appearance on parade at the Pine View dam celebration Saturday. The boys made a fine appearance in their natty new uniforms. The band, too, was there and it was not at all bad. BAND ANTICS Bandantics seems to be going over big. All of Ogden service clubs are for it 100 per cent. We, here at the high school are for it 150 per cent. We want that good substantial, well balanced high school band and we are going to have it. Hip, hip, hurrah. O yes, the date, October 18; the place Og¬den stadium. The hour, three p.m. 3. FOUR CHOSEN TO HELP WITH NEW YEARBOOK School Receiving Inquiries On Publication of Volume OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Lar¬sen, Associate Editor. We offer our congratulations to the students who have received po¬sitions on the yearbook staff. Marjorie Boyle was chosen social editor; Hal Peterson, sports editor; Bob Emmett. photographer, and Aaron Ross, assistant photographer. These students are capable and worthy and will perform their tasks as they should be done. Ogden printers are very alert this year and several have already made overtures for the publishing of our yearbook. In the past, local print¬ers have been—shall we say—apa¬thetic. At least they have not shown any great desire to print this beautiful souvenir. Other things being equal, we stand for Ogden printers for Ogden business. STUDENT HONORED Mr. Thornley. one of our English teachers, received the following let¬ter from Ernestine Taggard, literary editor of the Scholastic magazine: "Thank you for sending the two sonnets to our round table. We are using Lola Woodbury's 'God's Feast' in an issue that will be in your hands in a week or so. "Please urge your students to send us contributions! "Strangely enough I haven't re¬ceived one single prose piece so far this semester—and lots of poetry. I'd like some good short sketches." Once again one of our students has attracted the attention of the literary world by her talent in work of this kind. We believe that Og¬den High school ranks high in oyr country in literary ability. An expression of thanks should go to the English teacher of Lola Wood¬bury for his efforts toward the betterment of the work of his stu¬dents. Mr. Thornley takes the keenest delight in giving each and every member of his classes the op¬portunity of displaying talent. TO ELECT PEP CLUB A pep club is to be organized to radiate enthusiasm and loyalty among the students. Girls' council met and nominated a list of girls out of which 20 seniors and 10 jun¬iors will be chosen. The names were submitted to the student body dur¬ing advisory periods, and the re¬sults of the election will soon be made known. Upon this group will depend the support of our football and bas¬ketball games and every other ac¬tivity which ought to have much boosting. We sincerely wish the Pep club success. RECOVERING Our dean of girls, Miss Lamont Poulter, is making rapid recovery, and we may expect to welcome her back to school in the near future. She is able now to walk out in the sunshine daily and is recovering strength rapidly. May her health never fail her again. RADIO HELPS We certainly appreciated our school broadcasting system during the past week, as it enabled us to be up to the minute on the national ball games. We heard the broad¬cast during noon periods and in some study periods during the final stages of the game. The scores were announced in all rooms at the end Of the games. WE'RE IN TEE FAIR Through courtesy of the manage¬ment of the industrial fair, Ogden High school has been generously given a very desirable booth at the fair. In this booth we exhibit just a few of the many trophies that we have won, and we also have at¬tendants there who explain about our "Bandantix." STUDENTS ON JOB In the advisory period on Tuesday 50 "Bandantix" tickets were dis¬tributed to each group. As higb school students come from every corner of the city, "it is thought that through them an appeal might be made to all classes of citizens enlisting their support in obtaining funds to purchase instruments for the band. Again it furnishes stu¬dents themselves an excellent op¬portunity to render some little serv¬ice to their school. We love the cause for which we work, or for which we make some sacrifice. THE SCHOOL PLAY The school play has been chosen and will be read to all students who are interested in trying out for parts by Miss Woolley in Room 305 at three-thirty o'clock Thursday afternoon. The name of the play— if we heard aright—is "Cappy Ricks" or something like that, and is said to be a hum-dinger. It portrays events happening in San Francisco, and will consequently have what is technically known as "local color" and plenty of it. |
