YEARBOOK YODELS The annual Classicum, under the supervision of Editor Chuck Dunn, is rapidly shaping into form. The student body has been strewn with pictures and papers for weeks, but the staff has been finding a place for everything (even for some of those pictures) and it can’t be is complete. It will be a real annual, students, and a life-time souvenir.

The only help we can suggest is for the clubs and the student body to give just one boresome assembly, so we can use the other kind of adjectives for a while. Hut the program! Mrs. White of Central Junior gave us some read¬ings. We surely enjoyed them, and appreciate Mrs. White's kindness. And then Mrs. Ray Whitmeyer sang for us. More enjoyment. Ruth Cave gave us a number that hns seldom, if ever, been presented before. A harp solo! After all, this idea of harp playing after death isn't so bad! And to finish, Cliff Fretwell, one of our popular alumni members, sang for us. AUNT JANE Dear Aunt Jane: I am wondering what has become of your department as I have not noticed it in the News for some time. If it is from lack of ques¬tions I hope this one will give you something to do. How is cathedral or art glass made? Hoping you will answer this, I remain, Rvai Nala. Dear Rvai Nala: Aunt Jane has been ready at all times to answer your questions. Cathedral glass is made by mix¬ing dyes into hot, melted glass, re¬heating it and casting it in forms or molds. Simple, isn't it? Aunt Jane. BATTER CAKES If you put a little salts in the flour from which you make batter cakes, they will be more digestible. APRIL 8, 1929; Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise. SNOW HALTS TOURNEY The tennis tournament was no more than begun when the snow blanketed the paved courts and stopped play. Following are a few nf the first round results--Rex Greaves won over Ray Randall, 6-2, 6-2; Rich Anderson defaulted to Jim Burton; Bill Townsend beat Dick Ballard, 7-5, 6-4; Warren Wattis trimmed Dee Jackson 6-1, 6-1, Dick Horrocks downed Hess Stowe 6-0, 6-1, Jack Kertz eliminated Richard McKey 4-6, 6-1, 6-3, and Herb Torran nosed out Durrell Evans in a real comeback, 4-6, 6-0, 7-5. VISITOR FROM BERKELEY Mrs. Royce Rawlins, pianist for all gym classes at the University of California, recently visited O. H. S. gym classes. She expressed her admiration for the excellent attitude and training of the girls,. ana. In their ability to master difficult steps and motions. TROPHIES ON PARADE Two new trophies are now or¬namenting the glass delves of the o H S. trophy case. The beautiful bronze G. L. Becker basketball cup representative of the We¬ber division. Region 1, championship, holds the honored position, and the “Little Cider Jug,” worth its weight in gold, is in there to tell the world that in the last three years Ogden High school has had better football teams than the We¬ber County High. On the Becker trophy are engraved thee following names: C. D. Kapple, coach; Rex Greaves, Don Chambers, Derald Stone, Wesley Hales, Jack Harbertson, Frank Read, Leslie Mayer, Robert Parks, Jim Francis, Warren Wattis, Junior Pantone, and John Carver. ANOTHER ESSAY CONTEST The American School Citizenship league offers three prizes of $75, $50, and $25 to seniors for an es¬say, with suggestive title, "Above All Nations Is Humanity." See the bulletin board for particulars. ROMANCE OF AN ETCHING If the trained eyes of an artist were to look at Hilma Mole's beautiful little etchings which now repose in Mrs. Irwin's office, would he notice only the effective application of light and shadow in the finished picture? No, the little romance that lies in the making of etchings would instantly flash through his mind. He would see the "ground" a preparation of wax being spread thinly on a polished copper plate; then, the drawing in of the design on the negative and the placing of nitric acid all over the plate. By a series of "stoppings-out" differ¬ent depths of lines are produced, which, when printed show the dif¬ferences in tone. The ground and "stopping-out" material is next re¬moved and the plate is now ready for a trial print. Paper, for printing must be soaked in water twenty-four hours and then blotted until all the moisture disappears. Printer's ink, slightly diluted with oil, is rub¬bed well into the lines of the plate and the surplus removed with the palm of the hand. The plate is heated slightly, put on the run¬ning board of the press, covered with a damp piece of paper and a blanket, and finally, turned through the press. Thus, you see, there is more to an etching than meets the eye. Come see the etchings for yourself j and see just how much they tell you.—Emma Tanner, '29. COMMITTEES FOR THE OPERA The following students will con¬stitute the advertising and pub¬licity committee for the opera; William Smiley, Ted Tyree, Ray Jacobson, Art Manning, William Danniger. This committee is under the di¬rect supervision of Earl Leatham, first business manager. The following students will con¬stitute the stage committee: Julius Hansink. Bob Allison, Joe Bybee, John McCrumm, Bob Lindstrom, Charles Michaels. This committee, under direction of Bert Wrappler, first stage man¬ager. By order of Huber Earle, gen¬eral manager. APRIL 9, 1929 "A boy's will is the wind's, and the thoughts of young are long, long thoughts." JUNIOR PROM NEWS All names of seniors that have not been handed into the O. H. S. News box by Wednesday will be paired and posted on the bulletin Monday. Juniors, only eight more school days remain in which to ask the lucky girl, and in order to make this dance an overwhelming success each junior must have a date. The decoration committee has worked out a very pleasing "Hawaiian idea" to add to the un¬usual atmosphere which always j prevails at the "prom." Junior boys will not be allowed to come in formal dress. Only one thing to remember— to get your dates—and hurry, as they are going fast. DAVID E. MATTSON, Advisory Committee. HOGGAN MAKES SHOWING Fifty-two runners finished the tiring marathon at Salt Lake last Saturday and Jimmie Hoggan, Or¬ange and Black strider, came in eighteenth. He upheld the O. H. S. splendidly. Good luck, Hoggan, in the grind next Friday. THANKS, MISS BENOWITZ A mistake in the assembly write- up for last Friday's assembly omit¬ted the name of Miss Evelyn Benowitz as one of the entertainers. We apologize and thank Miss Benowitz for her pleasing piano solos. HAVE YOU A DATE? Seniors, please cooperate with the junior prom date committee and avoid confusion by placing your name and your partner's name in the newsbox by 3:30 Wednesday, April 10. All seniors' name not submitted will be paired off, and then it's all in the hands of luck. While yoiifre thinking about it, write down your and your part¬ner's names on a slip of paper, put it in a handy pocket and drop it in the box. Tomorrow's your last chance. STUDYING AT L. D. S. HOSPITAL Miss Winna Bruerton, member of last year's graduating class, is now studying at the L. D. S. hos¬pital in Salt Lake. Winna is the youngest member of her class and she is making an excellent record. On account of her taking Latin and chemistry in high school she has been permitted to take advanced work. FIVE DOLLARS 'We 13" announces that a five dollar prize wrill be given to the O. H. S. student who sells the most prom tickets over twenty-five. They who wish to sell, please see Horace Nebeker, chairman of the ticket committee. CHATTER AND CHAFF Ehtle Brittain came to school after the week-end with dark lines under her left eye. Form your own conclusions, but don't let her tell you she was roller skating. Martin Graff, photographer-in- chief of the year book, will here¬after be known at "Photo" Graff. Judging from the manner in which the junior prom committees are meeting they must surely be working on something big. The opera staff, too, seems to be letting no grass grow under their feet. (This doesn't apply to our lawn.) That long black pipe on the lawn east of high is not a section of a pipe line, it's our new flagpole. SCHOLARSHIPS The United States coast guard announces a four-year scholarship for men between eighteen and twenty-two years of age. Appli¬cants are to take a test to enter and deposit $2 00 to cover cost of clothing. During the period of in¬struction Jhey are to receive $780 and board per year. On gradua¬tion they are to receive a commis¬sion in the United States' coast guard. This is a wonderful op¬portunity for men who desire a thrilling line of endeavor. BOB ALLISON. HAM AND HUNT Ham And 13 planning a radio party. It is really a radio hunt, because portable transmitters and receivers are to be used. One I group is going up in the mountains while the other tries to find them by means of radio signals. It will 1 be rather unique and colorful. Exhibit day will soon be here and Ham And will, perhaps, put on an interesting exhibit if everything goes well. In our last meeting we started to repair the superhet for B. C. L purposes. Mr. Norton was the lucky man this week. He won a beautiful nonmicraphonic standard tube base, or sometimes called socket. H.H.H. APRIL 11 1929 "Every true man is a cause, a country, and an age." THERE IS A DIFFERENCE "There is a difference," says Mark Robinson, "between ordinary marching in the R. O. T. C. and stage marching." How true those words are is be¬ing discovered by the boys in the fourth and fifth period choruses. However, in spite of the military stiffness acquired by long months of hard drill, the boys will be ready to show you a smooth, graceful en¬trance when the orchestra strikes up "On Parade" at the presentations of Sweethearts" on April 25 and 26 at Weber County High auditorium. In brief, there will be a prince, a lost princess, a kingdom, ro¬mance, all combining to make an absorbing plot relieved frequently by some of Victor Herbert's best compositions in Sweethearts. And, oh, girls! Keith is the prince! LOTS LEFT All seniors who are not planning on returning to Ogden High school next fall must have all back work made up by the fifteenth. This term ends Friday and the next sixth and last, begins Monday. A few of the things remaining on thej program are the junior prom, op- j era, track meets, senior day, election of student body officers, taking in club members, inspection, tennis tournaments, yearbook, bac-calaureate exercises, commence and senior reception. NIGHT SCHOOL ENDS Tonight is the last session of Principal Wiggins' night school for this year. A dozen or more of Og¬den High's day teachers who have had night classes will be without a thing to do now on Monday and Thursday nights. CROSS COUNTRY POSTPONED The annual Weber gym cross country marathon, scheduled for this Friday, has been postponed until next Tuesday. Ogden is en¬tering a dozen or more couriers in an effort to keep a majority of the 12 prizes in our possession. COUNCIL Council was called to order by President Corry and the minutes were read and approved. Gamma Kappa was granted per¬mission to have a party Friday night. Mr. Wattis brought a report from the tennis committee to the effect that work has been com¬pleted on the tennis courts, and part of the tournament has been playd off. On motion of Mr. Aiken his report was accepted. President Corry explained how the election of student body offi¬cers, which will be held next week, is to be carried out. It was moved and seconded that council appropriate funds to de¬fray the traveling expenses of the debating team. Aftei some discus¬sion the motion was carried and council adjourned.—Jeanette Mor-rell, secretary. CHATTER AND CHAFF Only six more weeks of snow un¬til graduation! The quarterly is scheduled to come out Friday. It's the last but not least issue. Mr. Merrill has hired mother nature to keep the "lawn lizards" off our young grass. Now you know why there's so much snow. It's an optimistic senior that didn't drop his name in the- news box. No junior boys will be allowed to sing that song, "Though You Belong to Somebody Else, Tonight You Belong to Me" the night of the nineteenth. Twenty years ago the city offi¬cials took a 19-mile automobile tour. Imagine it—sluffing work for a whole day. AUNT JANE Dear Aunt Jane—Will you please convey through your column our thanks and appreciation to Claude Stevens and Harold Felt for their quick thinking and equally quick acting in returning two half-frozen children to their parents recently? Laboring through the snow of Malan's heights and Taylor's can¬yon burdened by two practically helpless children is a man-sized task and we want them to know that we are proud to have such fel¬lows in Ogden High school.—Appreciators. Dear Appreciators—Give praise where praise is due. Ogden High is certainly proud of these young men. Thank you.—Aunt Jane. A.J. APRIL 16, 1929 HIGH SCHOOL POLE PLACED A brand new flag pole, measuring 68 feet from the ground to the gold ball perched on the top, was erected at the Ogden Senior High school this morning. The pole was presented by the board of education. Dedication ceremonies will be held in the near fu¬ture. LARGE NUMBER ENDING COURSES Ogden And Weber High To Grade 456 Seniors This Spring Those dignified beings—high school seniors—will soon be graduated. As surely as srpring comes around and the budding geniuses of the literary world take up their pens to slay some sonnets, the mills of education grind out boys and girls, armed with diplomas to en¬gage the world of commerce. A total of 456 will be turned out by the Weber County High school and the Ogden Senior High school the latter part of May. One hundred and twenty-five will be graduated by the county school Principal Keith Wahlquist said this morning. Graduation ex¬ercises will be held on May 23 in the school auditorium. Ogden High school will gradu¬ate 331. One hundred and ninety- three girls will receive their dip¬lomas and 138 boys. The exact time of the graduating exercises has not been set Principal A. M. Merrill said this morning, but will probably be held May 23 in a the¬atre. APRIL 17, 1929. To believe your own thought, to believe that what its true for you in your private heart is true for all men—that is genius.—Emerson. BREAKING THE ICE. Juniors and Seniors, all year long we have practiced class com¬petition; let us end up this year with one grand bit of co-operation. The junior prom is given by the juniors to break the ice (so to speak) between the two classes. What could be more thrilling than to dance in a tropical atmosphere With the one of your choice or a new found friend with whom you have been paired off . Don't for¬get, Juniors, this is the last dance of the year that you can attend,
