4. SCHOOL AGAIN APPEALS 'KEEP OFF THE GRASS' Trying To Maintain Limited Amount of Green Space Unmarred OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL. NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen. Associate Editor. Appeal was made again today to the students of Ogden High school and other students and adults pass¬ing the high school building to "keep off the grass." Despite the fact that we have cement walks about the building, and leading up to all en¬trances, almost everybody seems to prefer to walk on the grass, creating paths across corners and greatly disfiguring the appearance of the school grounds. With our very limited lawn area it seems a shame that the grounds must be disfigured and marred in this manner. Every teacher made the appeal today to protect the lawns and if the students of high school will heed the appeal, and, further, will lend their aid to keeping off other trespassers, we shall improve greatly the appearance of our school grounds. HISTORY OF SCHOOL. A most interesting project has been undertaken by Amor Scribendi, writers' club of Ogden High school. The members are busily preparing a history of Ogden High school. They plan to cover in detail the story of the school's growth from the first schools in Ogden to the present time. This work is particu¬larly well timed since 1935 marks the celebration of the three hundredth anniversary of the American high school, the original school being the Boston Latin school, founded in Bos¬ton in 1635. In order to make the preparation of this history of Ogden High school truly representative and the results genuinely interesting, the members of Amor Scribendi earnest¬ly solicit the interest and aid of all who read this note. If you have in¬formation concerning the history of Ogden High school please communi¬cate with the club. Old photos for reproduction, manuscripts, stories, records of achievements of gradu¬ates, descriptions of the early schools, information as to early school personnel and equipment— these are the types of material which, if it can be verified, will be of invaluable service to the writers. Direct communication to Mr. W. R. Thornley, Ogden High school, and be assured we will credit and great¬ly appreciate your assistance.—Amor Scribendi, F. G. I-WANNAN-O. We are pleased to announce the election of new officers of I-Wannan-O, which took place last Wednesday at the home of Ferrin Larkin. They are: Bob Emmett, presi¬dent; Ed Madson, vice president; and Val Scoville, secretary. We feel that they have been chosen wisely, as we know they have all the qual¬ities needed to guide this club through the following semester.— Reporter. LULLABY. Now the dusky shadows creep Softly on their wings of sleep; Close your eyes and sleep now, dear, Stars are shining, God is near. And high above will glisten' soon The lamp of love, the yellow moon; Above the dreary skies will gleam, So close your weary eyes and dream. —Elizabeth Parkinson. WOOD DISFIGURED. The little phrase, "An idle mind is the devil's workshop," came to life once more on or about Thursday, January 31. Some person with noth¬ing to do but disfigure public prop¬erty maliciously drove his knife into the south window-sill in the west hall of the main floor. This nit¬wit, for such he must be, deliberate¬ly carved some frivolous name upon the up-to-this time unmarred wood. Protect your property, students, and reprimand any individual molesting our old school—Busybody. DEBATERS CHOSEN. Try-outs were held Friday after¬noon for Ogden High school's en¬trants to the state debating con¬test to be held at Weber college February 12. Members for three teams were chosen. Conrad Smith, Stratford Smith, Paul Packer, Don Dee Olsen, Dan Alsup and Larry Evans were the lucky fellows. Congratulations, boys! We wish you luck. CHARMING STUDENTS. In Ogden High school are many students who have charms mag¬netic, grace unbounded and loveli¬ness plentiful. These praiseworthy characteristics are easily seen by the fine reactions of the youths and maidens to various happenings which occur in the school. For example, when a call was given to help the needy at Yuletide, every individual who possibly could supported the cause without regard for any per¬sonal discomfort in preparing Christmas baskets. Many of those in clubs have stud¬ied harder to taise their grades to boost the commendable organiza-tions in which they belonged, showing a spirit of appreciativeness. Others have strived diligently performing many campaigns undertaken by the student body to attain a desired end. These are only a few of the nu¬merous instances demonstrating the graciousness of high school individ¬uals. May their laudable qualities never change. 5.

SPANISH CLASS If the students of Ogden High school wish to see a fine example of class co-operation and enjoyment of the work in hand, they should visit Mr. Hancock's second period Spanish class.

Pat Deming, the new president, co¬operating with Ralph Halverson, Jack Fowler, and Blaine Frost, his supporting officers, promises to make the forthcoming term even more enjoyable and interesting than was the preceding one. They heart¬ily extend an invitation for all the students of the school to come and visit their class. Until then they wish to say—hasta la vista.— La Cucaracha. AN IDEA We are very fortunate to live in such an age of vacations. Washing¬ton, Lincoln and other famous men are remembered, in one way, by holidays for school children. Let's be famous too; then think of the periods of leisure the next genera¬tion will have. TALKS DELIVERED Mr. Hancock's seventh period eco¬nomics class had a very interesting program Monday. We had several talks on different kinds of sports. Bill Taylor gave a very enjoyable talk on fishing and surf riding in
