Show 1. GIRLS INTEND TD OPEN PLAY SERIES MONDAY Inter-Club Tournament To Be Conducted At Ogden High School OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen. Associate Editor. The girls' inter-club basketball tournament will begin promptly at noon Monday, February 4, with four teams performing. Participating in this tournament are representatives from each club. Competition is us¬ually keen throughout the contests. Several clubs have had strong teams in past years, and we may look for¬ward to a repetition of this. The winners of the sports cup awarded last year, Amigo Del Mundo, boast an exceptionally good team this year that is out to cinch the spoils cup again. In the opening games Mon¬day we find Tri Delta scheduled to meet last year's champions. This alone should warrant a good turn¬out, and with teams from such clubs as Phi Lambdu Tau, Zata Phu Zi, and Tau Eta Nu in the running, a good basketball tournament is antic¬ipated. GAME TONIGHT The Ogden Tigers, basketball league leaders, journey to South Cache tonight in another attempt to further their standing. Last Tuesday the Ogden team met and defeated Preston at the Weber gym. If the Tigers are able to conquer the South Cache five, it is very probable they will journey to the state basketball finals in Salt Lake City. Good luck, Tigers! TRIBUTE In the days of much talk about short hours, we often wonder why it is that our janitors are the first to arrive at the school in the morn¬ing and the last to leave at night. The answer probably will be found in the fact that our halls and rooms are always clean, the building is warm, and all repairs are made on desks and whatnot. To our janitors, therefore, we pay a rousing tribute! We wish them dirtless floors, paperless waste bas¬kets, and ever-clean windows. EXCHANGING PICTURES Numerous students are having a half dozen or a dozen pictures made in order to exchange them. Such an act, indeed, shows a commend¬able spirit of friendliness and socia¬bility among the many students at High school. The students wish to have a remembrance of their dear¬est friends with whom they assoc-iated during their happy school days. The seniors, especially, wish to possess pictures of their girlhood and boyhood chums to retain al¬ways some tangible reminder of their High school days, perhaps the happiest, most care-free time of their lives. FAMOUS CONTENTIONS Mrs. Newcomb advances the idea that a canoe is like a boy—both be¬have better when paddled from the rear! Mr. Abplanalp drove his car to La¬goon last summer. The gatekeeper, demanding the usual automobile fee, called: "A quarter for the car!" "Sold!" cried Mr. Abplanalp. SCHOOL IS MAGNET In the midst of Ogden stands a building from whose interior issue hundreds of boys and girls daily. The institution of learning, Ogden High school, is that place, situated among homes of red and yellow brick, sharply pointed and slanting roofs and high and low structures freshly painted. Students living in these dwellings are drawn to school to use the educational facilities and friendship offered there as children are charmed by a Pied Piper's mu¬sic. In the morning when crispness lingers everywhere, a business of preparation to be ready to begin the day's work prevails. Boys and girls, gayly talking, laughing, whistling or humming among themselves while they are walking, direct their foot¬steps toward the center of attrac¬tion and interest — Ogden High school. From all parts of the city they come—east, west, north, south, and congregate. Because the influ¬ence of enjoyment, companionship, and learning so attracts the youth, Ogden High school can be rightly called a magnet. MUSIC FESTIVAL Glen Brothers Music company has generously offered to furnish all necessary pianos for Region one musical festival April 12 and 13. Nor did they forget to say they would deliver the pianos wherever desired and would put them in perfect tune. This is a very fine beginning for the festival. READING GALORE A student took home the other day one of our fine 3-lb. doubled columned, 580-page literature books. The mother lifted up, looked through it and remarked: "Good, now you have reading for the rest of your life." "For 18 weeks," blandly re¬marked the student. 2. CLUB EXTENDS FIELD TO ALL LITERARY WORK Adopts New Home To Show Objective and Holds Officer Election O GDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen. Associate Editor. The literary club, formerly known as Novi Poetae, has re-organized for a larger field of advancement. We have included as a motive in our club all literary writings as well as poetry; therefore, in order to harmonize with our work we have changed the club name to Amor Scribendi, which means, "I love to write." We are setting our goal high, hop¬ing to accomplish a great deal. In our last meeting we elected new officers, as follows: Dick Bailey, president; Barbara Blackburn, vice president; Parley Jenson, secretary; Frona Glines, reporter, and Mr. Thornley, advisor. A membership committee was appointed by the president, with the vice president as chairman. The other members of the club are Glen Stone, Rose Yoshioka, Iona Langford, Iola Langford, and Jack Richards. A party for initiation of members was held at the home of Parley Jenson. An enjoyable evening was snent.—Reporter. THE GOLDEN HARVEST The grains of golden wheat are being gathered by Ogden High school students and stocked for the harvest of memories that will feed them in the winter of their lives. These are magic grains which con-sist of laughter, happiness and sad¬ness. The friends of our school days will parade through our aged minds, and once more we will laugh at the pranks of our schoolmates. Each grain with which we feed our minds will bring the golden sunshine of summer into the grayness of winter. Students, appreciate the wheat that you are planting and take good care of it, so that you will gather a rich harvest of memories to brighten your future days that will be spent outside the portals of Ogden High.—Barabara Clark. MUSIC EVERYWHERE In the stores, on crowded streets, throughout school, at home and everywhere music lingers in the air. The radio is continually ringing with melodious melodies; pianos are played with beautiful expression; boys and girls are usually gaily sing¬ing; phonographs and their records are run until they are completely deteriorated; blast instruments are sometimes heard. At school we have fine glee clubs an excellent orchestra, even strains of music diffuse in the atmosphere before our principal speaks. When we talk, when we walk, when we run always bits of harmony will greet our ears to affect us as it will. What a musical world, indeed, this is! |
