Show Cream the ingredients thoroughly and bake well on a greased cranium. This makes a very delightful dish when served on a report card with the cream of parental praise. A REMINDER There are only three more days until the best dance of the year--the Thanksgiving dance. It is sponsored by the junior class, so a good time is assured. Everyone is invited. Remember 9 o’clock Friday at the Berthana. BOYS' GLEE CLUB Thursday was club meeting day. President Keith Corry brought the meeting to order. Sweaters are being discussed. Next week the kind of sweater will be selected. The boys like bright colors, so wait till you see them! It will be the snappiest-looking club in school. Mr. Peterson said that in the near future the boys’ glee club will give a one-hour program over the radio every other Thursday. This will make the school known throughout the country. The music club has made a fine showing. We are all back of it and are going to make this its best year. --Rob Parks, Reporter. OUR HALL OF FAME Richard Ballard: Because he wrote the song, "Mine, All Mine." Because he declares that love is like poison ivy, after about five years you get rid of it and then it comes back every year. Because his motto Is, "Do others before they do you!” And Maxine Fox: Because the shrinking violet in the dell is poison ivy compared to her. Because she has never said, "And so I told him just what I thought of him." Because she intends to be famous some day by inventing silk stockings that "do not choose to run." Because she is quoted as saying, "I must not disappoint my public." Gladys Anderson: Because she wrote a book called-"Toe holds and Headlocks." Because she once got her name in the paper (see me if your curiosity overcomes you). Because she has a line that many a poor fish has fallen for. Because has been quoted as saying: “I shall never change my name!" SCRAP BOOK EDITOR "Whether you know it or not, It's true! Ogden High school has a scrap book; in fact, it is a wonder¬ful affair of newspaper clippings, documents, and what-not. The only disadvantage is the fact that it lacks an editor. Now what could desirable for some ambi¬tious person than becoming scrap book editor? What could be a bet¬ter way to fame? Make your applications to Mrs. Irwin on or before Friday. Any in¬genious person is eligible. MYTHICAL TEAMS Ogden High school is honored by having several players on the "All Division" squad. On the first team we nr glad to learn that August Ahlf received a tackle position and Captain Jim Francis is the fullback. On the second team, Doxey Stone was chosen as a wing performer: Frank Reed, halfback; and Ernie Tarran, tackle. The players who received honorable mention are Rex Greaves, Les Meyer, Hugh Meyer and Don Chambers. Doxey Stone, Les Meyer and Hugh Meyer are juniors and will naturally be a big part of next year's team. We wish to congratulate Box Elder on her excellent sportsmanship. ASSEMBLIES Every week, for the sole benefit of the students, one and sometimes more assemblies are held. If the assemblies are good, the speakers are good, or parts of the programs are good, students will take Interest and pay close atten¬tion. On the other hand, if the speaker is not what they expect they become disinterested, and con¬sequently become noisy and start “cutting up." Do you know that every speaker, and usually every "outside" person taking part in the program, sacrifices something to come to high school and talk for your benefit ? They do not have to come; they are not remunerated; but they come that you may learn or appreciate .something. It is, therefore, part of your school work to pay attention; whether you are interested or not. Again, you elected your student body president as your leader, and yet while he is trying to preserve order, you will make every kind of an unnecessary noise. If you have ever been before an assembly and tried to talk against such a noise you will realize the humiliation and embarrassment that the president or any other person yndergoes when he faces the group. I do not mean to ridicule every member of the student body, but there are a few—you know who you are—for whom this is meant. If you don't like the assemblies, keep out! There is no one who can stop you from "cutting up" except your¬selves. Are you base? Would you cause your school to be degraded? If you are not, show it at the next assembly. That's all. If you don't appreciate assemblies we won't have them. Let everyone be responsible for himself. COMPLIMENTS CADETS! That the Ogden High school ca¬det corps is continuing her good work, is shown by the compliment which was sent by the American Legion to Colonel Thomas H. Cun¬ningham, commandent of the cadet corps. Here is the letter: "Dear Sir: On behalf of the Herman Baker post No. 9 of the American Legion, I desire to ex¬press to you and through you to the Ogden High school cadet corps the appreciation of the post for the participation of the cadet corps in Armistice day celebration. "The part taken by the cadets was a distinct asset to our celebra¬tion, received many favorable com-ments and withal showed the result of the exceptional training and discipline on the part of the com-mandant in charge." The letter was signed by Ora Bundy, commander. On behalf of the cadet corps we wish to thank the American Legion for its appre¬ciation. Therefore, if the cadet corps will ever be of any help to the legion, the legion will only have to say the word. FORUM History Is still in the making. Forum was called to order in Mr. W. Smith's room at 7:30 o'clock. The big battle this week was waged between Mr. Reeder and Mr. Johnson, upholding the affirmative, and Mr. Dunn and Mr. Fowles, up¬holding the negative of the ques¬tion: "Resolved. That the president of the United States should be elect¬ed for a single six-year term." Aft¬er the smoke had cleared away and all casualties had been accounted for, it was discovered that the neg¬ative had won the decision. The date of November 19, 1928, will go down in the annals of time as one of the most important events since Adam and Eve. The reason for this is outstanding—Grant Morse and Herbert Stewart (ju-niors. by the way) were admitted into Forum. Good luck! —Tillman Johnson. Thurs. Nov. 22 School News AT LAST At last the long series of tryouts has been concluded and council has made the final selections for Ogden High School News position. Rex Greaves is the new editor-in-chief and he will be assisted by a compe¬tent staff of sub-editors in Ruth Zuppann, Kathryn Cooley and Jack Norback. A list of reporter can¬didates will also be selected and tryouts will soon begin for the po¬sitions of understudy to the editors. These apprentices will be chosen from the junior class and they will be coached in their respective posi¬tions so that they may carry on next year. It will be the supreme endeavor of the News to present a democratic record each evening of the things that will appeal to the student body as a whole. It will mean a lot of work, students, and we want you to feel at will to drop any article, original or otherwise, tnat you think will be of interest, in the news box on the east bulletin board. Teachers, you, too, are invited to comment, criticise, or contribute to any extent your hearts and pens desire.

Jot down all your ideas, tag your name to them, mail them in the box and we'll thank you very kind¬ly. HURRY! HURRY! If you didn't get your date to¬day be sure and ask the lucky girl tomorrow, for everything is in readiness for one of the best high school dances since the Berthana was built. The juniors Avill be mas¬ters of ceremonies and that alone should assure the success of the annual turkey trot (ahem). Mr. Reeve will start his orchestra play¬ing promptly at 9 and he will keep it playing until 16 regular and four extras have been checked off the j program. SCHUBERT ASSEMBLY At 8:30 o'clock in the morning an assembly will be devoted to the hundredth anniversary of the death of Franz Schubert. "Schubert was indeed the first and greatest of the song writers of that period which produced so many gems of musical art, and an hour spent in apprecia¬tion of the great musician will be most valuable to anyone." ANNOUNCEMENTS Graduation announcements are now on display in the trophy case. They are the ones that have been culled by the committee appointed by President Sampson of the senior class. Seniors are asked to look them over and choose their favor¬ites; bearing in mind neatness, or¬iginality, beauty, clearness,- style and quality. COMMENTS The football team wishes to thank the "few" loyal supporters who braved the elements Saturday and turned out to watch the best game of the year. Don Fleming is in school again and he's making himself right at home. What a pretty blue Mrs. Ray¬mond's jet black ink writes! The band will play at the Weber- Ricks game Saturday. All of you who can are urged to attend this game and aid the Weber team on its trip to the Hawaiian islands. And the juniors are taking the senior girls. Well!

CONGRESS You remember that two weeks ago, Mr. Monson from Weber gave us a talk on debating. Well, last Monday night he put his talk into action. He sent four of his students to debate us. Two of them were alumni members. The question was "Resolved, that the policy of crim¬inal judges in giving the indeter-minate sentence should be con¬demned." The affirmative was up¬held by Margret Schmalz and Grant Syphers, and the negative by Vir¬ginia Nicholas and Dawain Wright. We certainly enjoyed this debate, and we wish to congratulate the de¬baters and their wonderful ability Now, juniors, if you don't understand what Congress is, I'll tell you again. Congress is a girls' debat¬ing club, and we want to promote debating among girls. So come, and try out for membership. We meet in room 103 at 7:30 p. m. Here's hoping we will see a large bunch of junior girls next Monday at 7:30 sharp. We are having an inter¬esting meeting, so come and listen. RUTH FALCK, Reporter. COUNCIL President Corry called Council to order, and the minutes of the laat meeting were read and approved.

Mr. Reeder brought a report from the club advisory committee which stated that students should not be allowed to belong to more than two clubs. His report was accepted by a motion.

TURKEY TROT TONIGHT Start looking for that misplaced ticket because the minutes are numbered until nine and the or-chestra's beating time to the tune of "Turkey in the Straw." Tonight the juniors will present this annual affair, and it promises to be the apex of social success. TERM AND HOLIDAYS The second term will close offi¬cially next Wednesday, November 28, and two-thirds of the first se-mester will be recorded in history If we looked with anxiety for our first term marks, we await at the point of a nervous breakdown for our next ones. The seniors are be¬ing constantly reminded that they are expected to be graduated next spring and rings, pins, announce¬ments and pictures are a few of these reminders. Thursday and Friday of next week will be holi¬days, so console yourself over the week-end with that fact. I-WANNAN-O I-Wannan-O met on Wednesday night at the home of Wannan-O- Johnson. We were highly pleased by the presence of three of our alumni. Mr. Jackson, chairman of the initiation committee, reported that preparations for initiation are ap-proaching perfection. November 28 was the day decided to drive the meanness out of the new members. A party will be held at Keeley's to terminate the event. Mr. Similey of the "tie commit¬tee" reported that I-Wannan-O tics were available. Mr. Armstrong, one of our pledges, gave a fine talk on Vitamine "D." On motion of Mr. Bramwell, we adjourned, to take on the refresh¬ments. I-WANNAN-O. PROGRESS IN TYPING In Mr. Farnsworth's beginner typewriting class there are two stu¬dents who can pound out forty-five words per minute for fifteen min¬utes. They are Erma Funk and Ida McGregor. Mr. Farnsworth says that if they continue to make such progress we will have a cinch on all honors in the state meet next spring. He also announces that he has ten students who are making better than twenty-five words per minute. His advanced class has just cap¬tured two medals. Libby Teuscher has a gold medal from the Rem¬ington people and Alyce Wright has a. silver pin from the L. C. Smith company. BOB ALLISON, Reporter. A DOZEN One dozen standard forms the name of Joie Francais. One to be really worth while should live and strive toward high ideals. The twelve standards for the French club are as follows: J—stands for joy, 0—for obedience I—for intelliect, E—for eagerness. F—fairness, R—Roberts' rules of order, A—aim, N—neatness, C—correctness. A—another initiation, I—integrity, S—sincerity. All in all, Joie Francais means bigger and better girls. BLANCH HEED, BELIEVE IT OR NOT Dad Beason's geometry marathon is nearly an end. Only a few are left. Pick your favorite. This column believes in bestow¬ing congratulations where congrat¬ulations are due, so shalcte the hand of Jim Burton. Jim is the cartoon¬ist who drew the department head¬ings for the first quarterly Classi-cum and all will admit that he did a hard job well. Sweet essence of chlorine—all students who are afflicted with coughs, colds, croup or what have you, step forth and Doc Smith will guarantee to cure or kill. (Inas¬much as the second term is nearing an end many might prefer the lat¬ter!) An Ogden High school ring with initials I.T. has been lost. Finder see Mrs. Irvin for reward. Yes, Juniors, there'll be school Monday. AUNT JANE Dear Aunt Jane: Now here’s a poser: Suppos'n a boy going "stag" to a dance ac¬cepts an invitation to a "stag" din¬ner—then for some reason he in¬vites a girl to attend the dance with him and she being invited to a dinner to be given before the dance, he also is invited; what should he do? Should he go to the "stag" dinner? Should the girl go also to the dinner both are invited to or should the boy go with the dinner, excusing himself from the “stag” dinner DILEMMA P. S.—Should he have invited the girl after accepting the invitation to the "stag" dinner? Dear Dilemma: The dear boy who is in so un¬decided a position should accept the mixed dinner date and should send his regrets to his "stag" host. His brother "stags" may understand and sympathize. He should not have asked a young lady after he had accepted the first dinner date, but I'm sure that if he follows my instructions he will never go wrong. Come again. AUNT JANE. OUR HALL OF FAME We nominate to our Hall of Fame: George Fowles. Bccause he thinks that "come the dawn"' is a quotation from a famous Spanish opera; because he thinks that a bootlegger is the only person who can have water on the knee; be¬cause as a poet he makes a good shoe clerk; because he never says "Applesauce." And Norene Campbell. Because she takes gym to get in shape for a bathing beauty contest; because |
