FEBRUARY 28, 1929. The key of yesterday I threw away, And now, too late, I stand before tomorrow's Closed locked gate In vain to pray, in vain to sorrow For only the key of yesterday Unlocks tomorrow. DATE SETTLED The date has been settled. Four one-act plays will be presented by the dramatic art class March 8 in the Central junior auditorium. They include "Coral Beads," a clever play with clever actor; "Bar¬gains in Cathay," about poetry and poets; "Thursday Evening," telling of the troubles over a garbage pail; and "Little Tin Banks," us¬ing all the latest slanguage in and out of the dictionary, especially out. Don't forget the date, March 8. MUSIC, EVERMORE Did you know that at the presen¬tation of the one-act plays, the O. H. S. orchestra will favor the audience with several excellent selec¬tions? The crack company that per¬formed at the cadet hop has put nothing over on the marching chor¬us from "Sweethearts." As we sneak up to the door of the music room and listen to the chorus sing¬ing, "While on parade, every pret¬ty maid loves the gallant military best,' we have the great desire to see how such a colorful song will sound when all the brilliancy and glory of the big night enhance it and give it the "big air." The major portion of the cast has been chosen—announcement will be made soon. Tomorrow night is the big night for basketball followers who are journeying to Brigham City to wit¬ness the battle between the Tigers andl the Bees. The game will prob¬ably start about 7:3 0 o'clock. Go. prepared to yell and to stay for the dance afterward. ALUMNI HONORED Miss Eleanor Weeks, '26, a soph¬omore at Smith college, Northamp¬ton, Mass., has been chosen by the oollege to spend her junior year in France, under the auspices of the college. This honor is bestowed annually on a few of the outstand¬ing girls who are majoring in French at Smith. SPOTLIGHT QUARTERLY The Spotlight number of the Quarterly Classicum was issued to the eager hands of the students yesterday. It is certainly an orig¬inal and entertaining issue and has gained instant approval. In the words of its editor, Dorothy Wal¬lace, can be best expressed its motive: "If we were to flash our enor¬mous spotlight around the school, we could probably, find m<uiy sur-prising things. Some people would shrink from the spotlight's reveal¬ing glare; others would smugly welcoming its publicity. Think it over. How many of us could long stay in the searching spotlight? Few, if any. "However, in this issue, have no fear; we are just turning the spot¬light on pleasant, helpful person-alities. There are many in and around our illustrious institution We are indebted to both students and teachers who strive to make our school known in extra-curri¬cular activities. It is a well-known fact that these activities are extremely important in the develop¬ment of school life; hence our grat¬itude to the boys that make our athletic contests possible, to the of¬ficers of our student association, to our students socially inclined, and so forth, ad infinitum. It does indeed take all sorts of people to make up a school, but this spot¬light is directed upon those who do their school work well and do, besides, other worthwhile things. Here's to Who's Who in High School." THE EDITOR. U. A. C. BAND Tuesday after school we and stu¬dents from the junior highs enjoy¬ed a program given by the A. C. band. Clarence J. Hawkins was the director. That entire concert was so fine that we cannot re¬member everything, but snatches from "Rose Marie," an oriental dance, a rhapsody, still linger. And it's really funny how many of us have since decided to attend the agricultural college. FRIDAY'S ASSEMBLY The regular student body assem¬bly will be held tomorrow (Fri¬day) morning at 8:40 o'clock. The program will be furnished by "The Stellae," and will consist of choice music and an address by Rev. John E. Carver. No one can afford to miss this assembly. CHANGE IN PROGRAM In order to give the necessary time to the study of the American flag, its history, its symbolism, sig-nificance and meaning, as also the rules and regulations concerning proper flag etiquet, the advisory period during March will be of one honr's duration. In other words, the R. O. T. C. period Avill be re-duced to fifty minutes and the ad¬visory period extended ten minutes. Branch Aggies to Oppose Wildcats Ricks Noses Out Dixie In Opening Game of Sixth Annual Joust; Gillins Leads Attack On Saints As Title Holders Win; Weber Easily Defeats Snow. By AL WARDEN Standard-Examiner Sports Editor WEBER COLLEGE, Kicks College and Branch Aggies, out¬standing favorites in the sixth annual basketball joust, which opened at the Weber gymnasium last night, came through with neat victories. Only one of the three teams was pressed, the others winning handily. Ricks was given a man-sized scare In her contest with Dixie. The northern five eked out a 31 to 28 decision, but only after some stubborn competition. Weber came through with a 43 to 28 verdict over Snow, the locals having a 20-point lead three times during the four periods of action. In the other contest Branch Ag¬gies bubbled with ability and re¬corded a 33 to 18 triumph over the stubborn Latter-day Saint machine. SUPER EVENTS Three super events arc on the program tonight. The headline event will get under way at 8 o'clock with Weber and Branch Aggies furnishing the menu. Aggies and Weber have battled in practically every tournament and each game has offered plenty of thrills. The contest tonight should be sensational all the way. L. D. S. and Dixie clash in the opening contest at 7 o'clock. The Ricks five, one of the strong north¬ern teams, faces the Snow machine in the other contest at 9 p. m. A victory for Ricks would give them the right to meet the winner of the Weber-Aggie game Saturday night for the championship. On the other hand a defeat would cause the tournament heads plen¬ty of trouble. Howard Linford's Aggies will rule favorites over the Wildcats, yet the fight and determination of the locals may carry them through. This contest should put a premium on standing room. It promises to be one of the best games in Og¬den's basketball history. GOOD BASKETBALL The Ricks-Dixie contest opened the joust last night and offerei some good basketball. Ricks got away to a commanding lead but was forced to give her all in the closing period to stave off a threat¬ened Dixie rally. Lee Hafen's athletes dribble pass and perform well as a team. They undoubtedly can produce a better brand of ball than they offered last night. Ricks played practically two pe¬riods without the services of Seth Parkinson. Parkinson, recently ill, played only a portion of the game, but his appearance in the Ricks lineup pepped the players up con-siderably. Harris and Parkinson were out¬standing for the northern five. Blake member of the all-star team of last season, was about the entire show for smiling Lee Hafen's warriors. This chap does everything well. Stratton's basket shooting was splendid for the Dixieites. GET EARLY LEAD Weber looked like a million in the first two periods of her game with Snow, leading 18 to 5 at the end of the first quarter and 22 to 11 at the half. In the final pe¬riod the Wildcats took things easy and did not use up any more en¬ergy than was necessary. Hearn, Moesinger and Peterson led the Weber scoring attack. This combination looked polished, espe-cially at tossing the leather through the strings. Hearn played a wow of a floor game. Moesinger also sparkled in this department of play. The We¬ber guards, Budge and Rose, also came through with nice perform¬ances. Anderson, midget forward, was the best bet for Ike Young's ath¬letes. He caged six times from the field. Larson, giant center, played a sensational floor game for the Ephraimites. Branch Aggies obtained an early lead in the closing game with L. D. S. and won with a 15-point margin. Clarence Gillins, all-around star of the 1928 show, again hogged the first night honors. This midget performer caged nine buckets from all angles of the court. His floor FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH 1, 1929. Favorites Capture Opening Games at Cage Series work was superb. The former all-state selection is just about fifty per cent of the Aggie team. Yardley, running mate for Gil¬lins, scored only one goal, but gave a niee floor exhibition. Olson and Young played well on the guard line. Woods at center, elongated and clever, worked splendidly with j his teammates. Olson, center of the Saints, was colorful. He not only led his mates in scoring but turned in a nice per-formance. His work was pleasing. Garff and Bailey also played well 1 for the Saints. The Gold and Blue warriors, out¬classed at the hands of a champion¬ship contender, battled to the fi¬nal gun, a feature that won the ad¬miration of the crowd. Games tonight and Saturday night are expected to attract ca¬pacity crowds. The first battle this evening; is. booked for 7 o'clock. MARCH 1, 1929. Beware of friends who will lie I for you; for they will surely lie to you.—Alta Byrne. "FUN IN STORE There's lots .of fun waiting for you on March 8—four very clever one-act plays to entertain you and make your sides ache from laugh¬ter.

Don't forget the date—next Fri¬day in the Central Junior High school auditorium. YEARBOOK STAFF CHOSEN The following students have been chosen for the O. H.

BIG TEST TONIGHT The Tigers are completing their league schedule tonight in a hectic battle with the Box Elder Honey- makers. If we are victorious it will have been a more than suc¬cessful season—and we're out for victory. If you're a real Ogden booster you'll break your neck to get to the game tonight and back the Ogden boys. CLASSICALIA NEWS The general committees for the annual Classicalia gathered Wed¬nesday after school for the firt meeting. Ed Smith presided and introduc¬ed the general plans under which the event is to be sponsored. Oswell Jackson was elected student chairman and Jeanette Morrell, secretary. The permanent com¬mittees are being picked and will be announced in the near future. Plans for the booths, pageant and motif were discussed briefly and the meeting was adjourned with the idea firmly Impressed on everyone's minds that this is go¬ing to be the biggest Classicalia in many years. ART STUDENTS BUSY Work in the art room is being turned out rapidly. Many different types of artistry are being mastered. First, the Spotlight cover, by Blaine Drake, deserves honorable mention. A clever cover, well done, is an attraction. Pastels of still life are. being done by Lucille Pullum, Laura Danvers and Florence Jorgenson. Posters for the Classicalia carnival are taking up the time of Frank Mathews and Ray Jacobson. Pictures of Charles "Buddy" Rogers, that heart-thrill¬ing movie actor, and of Adolphe Menjou, with an all-night grin, are the work of Blaine Drake. Wood¬cuts for the Classicum, representing Who's Who in Ogden High,. show what Kenneth Whittier, Bert Wappler, Jack Kertz and Ray Jacobsen think of our scholastic leaders. Very clever pen and ink sketches are being done by Vir¬ginia Davis and Madeline Malan. Lastly, the art department has begun work on the poster contest, thpjl subject to be "Utah's Honey." ASSEMBLY Stellae sponsored our program for today. And a very nice time we had star-gazing, too!- Stellae believes in home talent, and has a lot of it. Charlene Scowcroft gave us a piano solo. Was it good? Say—And Maxine Fox danced for us, and Bernice Larson read for us. Better 'n' better! And then Hod Nebeker and Hugh Ford entertain¬ed us with a number. Of course, they were encored. Hod seems to; be able to do a lot of things well besides being a very capable junior president. The Rev. J. E. Carver talked to us. We wish we could hear him oftener. I-WANNAN-O Our meeting was called to order by Wannan-O Sampson at the home of Os Jackson. The regular order of business was taken up, but it 'was found that we could not, con¬centrate on the business and Mr. Sharkey's and Mr. Stribling's ef¬fort at the same time, so on motion of Mr. Bramwell we dispensed with the regular order to enjoy the re¬ports of the fight. When it was over we continued our meeting. Several reports were giVen and business was discussed. The club pledged itself to push the Classi¬calia to the. best of their abilities. The meeting was then adjourned for refreshments. TO PARENTS We recommend to our parents that they read carefully our spring Classicum just issued. We think it a very creditable issue. As you pick it up, look at the beautiful cover design which was created in our art department. Open the first page and read the "Spotlight" poem by the bearded bard. This poem gives the theme of the book in a general way, and is a rather artistic piece of work itself. It really wasn't written by a bearded bard, it was written by one of our senior boys, Bill Smile)'. Turn now to page 20 and read what the editor says about the is¬sue. Now turn to pages 33 to 38 inclusive and note the clever spot¬light cartoons of various students
