4'S AND 6'S Four and six—fellows and gals. We have six new girls and four new boys. They are Gertrude Hardman; Duchesne; Eleanore Blewitt, Butte, Mont.; Phyllis Turner, Boise, Ida.; Patricia Collard, Salt Lake; Gertrude and Ruth Maurer, Bakersfield, Calif.; the boys, Jack Harbertson, Calvin Pitt and Lester Reeder, Ogden; and Lawrence Dalton, Evanston, Wyo. We certainly want them to enjoy this year and to like our school. Let's get acquainted. —Owl. CHATTER AND CHAFF Mr. Widdison: "This is the third time you've looked on her paper." Sally O'Neil: "Yes, sir, she doesn't write very plain." CADET HOP Too bad, girls, Joe's already tak¬en (Elaine saw to that), so now you'll have to shine up to some¬body else- Be sure you get a date, though, or you'll miss a popping good time. This will be your first opportunity to see those six demure little sponsors on display. Can you imagine staying home on a night like that? Come on. then! WE MOURN AGAIN For the fourth time this year the Ogden High school is called to mourn the death of a student. Miss Fern Baker who met her death in an automobile accident Friday evening was a very happy, genial, sweet-dispositioned girl that endeared herself to all her asso¬ciates. Her sudden passing has cast a shadow of gloom and heaviness over the high school. We extend to Mr. and Mrs. Baker and the family our sincere sym¬pathy in this irreparable loss that has r.nme to them. Ogden High School Notes February 4, 1931 Ruth Greaves, Editor. Smile, bozo, smile, for no matter how tough it is today, it's bound to t be worse tomorrow! NOTICE, STUDENTS! Students, we play Bear River Saturday night in our own "cheese- box" and not Thursday as many think! Bear River has an aggregation that's going to be tough to defeat. They feel that they have the best team in their history and are going to come up here gunning for victory and nothing else. We dis¬posed of Box Elder Friday last and as a result are tied with Weber for leadership of the league. It's going to take the best efforts of ur team and the best support of the sixth man to win this game. Your student body cards are good, gang, so don't fail to put in an appearance to see the initial home game of the Tigers. —Snoop. TAU ETA NU. Station Tau Eta Nu is announcing again. This time it is about the party we had last Friday night. We played all kinds of card games after which we cut for the prize and who should win it but Miss Schofield, with Betty Williams bringing up the rear with the booby prize. We were then served refreshments, which we all needed after such hard thinking, and last but not least we each said what we would do with a thing, then we were given a string to pull. On the end of each string was a pack- age to be opened, and to our sur¬prise people received wash cloths, soap, a mouse trap, balloons, etc. This is just the beginning of our work. Station Tau Eta Nu is now signing off.—H. D. Broadbent, An-nouncer. CONGRATULATIONS. Monday night several of our stu¬dents provided a program for the Legion auxiliary. The students were Lafe Snyder, who played several snappy sax solos, Virginia Sanders, pianist, Ruth Greaves and Yvonne Pierce, who sang several pleasing folk songs. Andy Brunetti and Vir¬ginia True followed with readings. Just in the spirit of giving, you know. Nice work, students. A NEW HIGH SCHOOL. The teachers, principal, officers of the decorum committee and the students wonder why we are late for school mornings, noons, and the rest of the time. A great improve¬ment on the building could be made if a bell, siren, whistle, chimes, or what not was added to the extrem¬ities of the building. These cooing love birds who choose to roam the streets at noon have their minds occupied when school should be in session. A little tinkling bell could remind them that there is a thing called school. And too, these late sleepers, when they hear our bell, could at least get here by the second period. That helps. Of course the residents that occupy the territory around Twenty-fifth and Monroe might be startled in their sleep to hear the bell, but it also would remedy their habit of getting to work late. But dear O. H. S., if you can't be bothered with such a small trifle, would you please con¬sider a brand new high school with a big bell on the outside? Please! —Joe Fowler, CHATTER AND CHAFF. Mr. Smith: "Iodide of Potassium." Helen McKay: "How long was she sick?" We mortals have to swat and shoot The flies from dawn 'til dark Cause Noah didn't swat the two That roosted in the ark. Lafe Snyder's ancestors are half women. CONGRESS. Congress is launched upon two more important debates. This time we debate West High of Salt Lake City on the first Friday in March. The question is: Resolved, that a change to the thirteenth-month calendar be approved. Congress chose Virginia Hunter and Alice Dunn to debate the affirmative at Ogden and Helen McKay and Ruth Ames as the negative team who will debate the West at West High. We look forward to two worth-while debates. Monday evening our semi-annual election of officers took place. They are, for the remainder of the year: President, Dorothy Nelson; vice president, Helen McKay; secretary, Marian Ensign. After a lengthy discussion of as¬sembly plans, Congerss adjourned. —Ruth Ames, Reporter. NEWS FROM EAST. We were delighted to receive word that Gladys Lochtrog, an alumnus, is making a name for her¬self at the Eastman School of Music of the University of Rochester. She entertained on a concert program given in Kilborn Hall, January 27. Gladys played Etude by Arensky, and Stacotto Etude by Rubenstein. —Owl. Students, if vou know anything about our alumni, please let us know. Just write the information and drop it in the Note box. Thank you. —Owl. WELCOME We take pleasure in welcoming; another new girl into our midst— Miss Velma Morgan from the Logan High school. Hope you like us, Vel¬ma. Ogden High School Notes February 5, 1931 Ruth Greaves, Editor An optimist is sometimes one who thinks that he can always find some other fellow to collect the liv¬ing he believes the world owes him. A NEW HIGH SCHOOL Our school's greatest need is a new building, large enough to accommo¬date all the students of high school age in Ogden. The old school is small, poorly ventilated and ram- shackled. When the classes pass through the halls, the whole struc¬ture shakes and groans with the weight and force of many feet. The j building could be condemned as a fire hazard by any official and it could be done with little remorse or compunction. The equipment is not modern, except for a few new things put m by popular subscrition. In truth, we need a ne building. KEN BOYLE. S. O. S. CLUB Our new organization is makii great headway, as we had predicte and with the present enthusias and pep of the members we ha a very promising future to look fo ward to. We have planned a ve eventful and interesting progra for our next Meeting, and with tt gtfappy outlook, including Mr. Chriman's historical talk, we can hard endure the long suspense betwec !now and our meeting day. Le make it a wow! HOUTZ GREEN. S. A. R. CONTEST The S. A. R. oratorical contest for boys has been definitely an¬nounced.

CHATTER AND CHAFF Yvonne Peirce and Dorothy Knowldon were discussing men. "Which would prefer in your boy friend, wealth, ability, or appear¬ance?" asked Yvonne. "Appearance," replied Dorothy! "and the sooner the better." There's a girl in school who Is certainly faithful to Steve Merrill. She even stands ready to put his coat and hat on for him at noon. "Hello." "Hello, this you Naomi?" "Yes." "Do you still love me?" "Yes, who is it?" SATURDAY'S GAME We play our second game in league competition next Saturday night at the Weber gymnasium. There is absolutely no reason now why we can't have the whole-hearted support of every student in high school. Your student-body card will admit you so be there promptly at 7:30.

MISSED We've missed you, John and Guinevere, for the past few days, and only hope you may be able to be with us again soon. Ogden High School Notes February 6, 1931 Ruth Greaves, Editor. No matter upon what step of the social ladder we may stand, we are never so high nor so low that we can afford to be discourteous. AWAITING SATURDAY Saturday night is the big night for our basketball aspirations. If we defeate Bear River, then we'll be in a position to challenge Weber for the leadership of the league, that is, of course assuming that Weber beats Box Elder. If not, everything will be well and good—if we beat Bear River. If—that depends a lot on the sixth man if that means anything then the game is won, in the bag, cinched, and all other expressions of premeditated victory. Harrumph! Just a hint, gang, when ' the last of our students stop filing in the gym door and find seats, there ain't gonna be nuthin' but standing room. Get there early. The game Will probably start at 8 o'clock, so bring all of your good old pep along.—Snoopy. FEBRUARY 13 Two, four, six, eight, ten, twelve— don't miss the thirteenth. Maybe the others are important, but say- do you know what the thirteenth is besides Friday? Well—it's the date of the Cadet hop. The crack com¬pany is working hard to give a genuine exhibition. Don't miss it Fellows, get your dates; girls, get your fellows.—Owl. AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Aunt Jane: What's the matter with all o: these cadets? —A. B. Dear A. B.: Perhaps they're superstitious oi i Friday, 13th, but cheer up; there's a week left. —Aunt Jane. Dear Aunt Jane: Can you tell me when we can get our pins and rings? —L. M. Dear L. M.: Lewis' informed me that they are on their way and expected daily. As soon as they arrive I will noti¬fy you. —Aunt Jane, CHATTER AND CHAFF Since Dave Wangsgard has lost his voice he is reminded of the joke of the old maid who lost her voice, had fifteen proposals, and couldn't accept any. Sheldon seems to be losing his in¬terest in blondes — especially near the Twelfth ward. Paul Gilgen: "The little things in life are dear to me. I love the in¬significant, the plain, the simple—." Fast Student: "Yes, I've often noticed, how self-satisfied you seem to be." NATIONAL CONTEST i The National Colonial Daughters' - society is sponsoring a patriotic es-ii say-writing contest, open to all stdents.

The following subjects are suggested: The George Washington Bi-centennial celebration. Forests and Their Relation to Floods. Summer Military Training Camps. Our Immigration Problem. The Monroe Doctrine and the Author. For further rules governing tbaH contest see your English teacher. This is a contest well worth )oaH while. A NEW HIGH SCHOOL I wish that I may see the time, When high schools grow In every clime, Not old and gray and shabby ones, But bright and new and shiny ones. Oh what a time our students hire, As they in dreary corners laugh, I And 'round the radiators stand, To fondly hold a maiden's hand. Now this you know is very bad, For no one all his studies has, When opportunities as these, Are attained with so much tut. So this condition'd surely be, Remedied most certainly, If our fair city were adorned, With a high school finely formed. So now you have another reason, Why new high schools are In seuon,H And I think with proper care A bumper crop might take the ifc,H COUNCIL REPORT Council was called to order by President Corry.
