"INDIAN IDEA" FEATURED AT CLASSICALIA Colorful Event Witnessed By Large Crowd of Dancers An "Indian Idea" was featured at the annual Clasicalia given Friday evening t the Berthana and the pageant was impressive and beau¬tiful. The gaiety and frivolity of the evening was interrupted by the in¬cantations of the medicine man, Andrew Brunetti, the weird wailings of the tribesmen, and the monoton¬ous beatings of the tom-toms which ushered in the death bier of the Indian queen, Miss Dorothy Knowl¬den. Tom-tom demons, Alice Huggins, Nora Hawkins, Norene Bingham and Maxine Harris, led the procession, followed by their fellow tribesmen, Bob Bingham, George Thatcher, Charles Peterson, and John Cawley, who bore the huge tom-tom. The grieved and sorrow stricken old chief, Rowland Corry, with his fol¬lowers, Preston Mulcahy, Sheldon Winkler, Fera Young, Charles Wood, David Morrell, Raymond Raty, Russell Farr, Dale Anderson, Edward Olsen, Harmon Williams, Paul Robi- son and Louis Peery, came next crying out their prayer to the great Manito. Then seven weeping maid¬ens dressed in gayly colored cos¬tumes, Ruth Greaves, Blanche Alison, Yvonne Pierce, Virginia Oborn, Echo Vaughn, Mildred Drake, and Florence Cave, carried in the bier on which lay the dead queen cov¬ered by a shroud. The maid of hon¬or, Miss Geneva Farr, entirely concealed by her mourning robes, marched behind the bier. Finally came the tribespeople bedecked in their drab, but effective costumes: Mary Underwood, Guinevere Woolley, Beatrice Allen, Margaret Betts, Hermise Broadbent, Margaret Thomas, Lucille Miller, Marian Stewart, Betty Goddard. Ruth Cleave. Ruth Ames, Jessie Barrett, and Eva Grover. Having placed the queen's death bier in the center of the sacred grove, the seven famine dancers in-terpreted a dance of the hunt. Sud¬denly the tribe drew back, for they heard in the distance the song, "In¬dian Dawn," sung by the young chief, Frank Grastiet, and his tribesmen, Walker Lowe, Clarence Dinsdale, Max Hooper, Ivan Burnett, Carl Monzell, Ed Olson, Gilbert Tolhurst, and John Purdy, who came in canoes to claim the bride. The old chief sorrowfully greeted them and told them of the death of his daughter. Through his power of hoodooism the medicine man pleaded to the god of fire who caused the water spirits, Anita Van Dyke, Elaine Evans, Geraldine Fitzgerald, Kathryn Heiner, Elaine Stevens, Lulu Hodgson, Jeanne Danvers, Harriet Robison, June Harrison and Ruth Gibbons, to come forth. By J their bewitching dancing these nymphs revived the queen. While the princess, Dorothy Knowlden, slowly rises and sings the "Indian Love Call" to her chief,; the medicine man with the explosion of a magic bomb, changes the knots ; of a tree into six beautiful maids-in-waiting, Helen Madson, Ila Smith, Eloise Brewer, Annabelle Barker, Oertel Aadneson, and Helen Van Buren. The old chief, with a] bow of his head, gave her to the bridegroom, who happily led her tos the throne, placed high upon a gigantic tree trunk, with rustic steps leading up to it. The maid of honor, Miss Geneva Farr, immediately fol¬lowed with the six maids-in-waiting. When the crown was placed on the head of the queen, so great was the rejoicing that even the winds, Elpha Morse, Kay Moyes, Louise Peterson and Mable Barton, entered and I danced. As the tribespeople continued their frivolities, the dance of the warrior maidens, Marie Louise Dobbs Mary Walker, Ruth Lindsey, Anna Fox, Dorothy Crawford, Janis Sherman, Naoma Teusher, and Naoma Wall, was going on. Suddenly the mightly tom-tom , burst, and with a blood-curdling cry, the spirit of the tom-tom, Lorna Malan, leaped out and with g her dancing interpreted the emotions of the tom-tom and finally dropped at the feet of the queen, d Folowing the pageant the large icrowd joined in dancing until midnight.

SERPOLETTE Have you ever met Serpolette, the Wilful, unruly scandal monger It may be that you don't care to meet, ha face to face, but if, for curiosity's sake, you would like to make her acquaintance at a distance, be to a seat at the South Washington chool auditorium either on the evening of April 10 or 11. The batflis—regular fist fights—in which she indulges are far better than, those of the star prizefighters of; today even when you are in a ringside seat. This most difficult role is excel¬lently portrayed by Maurine Cornia, who has a beautiful soprano voice ttd plenty of vim to create enough excitement for the best thrill-seekers. Of our city.

CHATTER AND CHAFF We wonder if Dave Wangsgard's economics class passed their test. May the gods be with them. We know that we couldn't have passed it. Mickey Wedell says that six pieces of ginger bread makes the old whis¬tle kind of dry. Ask any of Central 'junior's girls for details. Doyle Jenson's responsibilities 'have turned his hair gray.

GERMAINE In distinct contrast to the unruly Seroplette, we are aware of a no¬ble bred, demure, young lady whom folks call Germaine. Who else but dainty, sweet Yvonne Pierce for this character? She is in the opera as she is in her daily life—the same lovable person who has a brilliant smile and pleasant word for all her acquaintances. As she comes from the stage, your emotions will fol¬low her every move—you'll be sad- with her; happy with her; and at the close of the opera, you'll love with her. ARLEEN SESSIONS. S. O. S.

Many's the tiger that hasn't been killed because he didn't have the right expression on his face for a rug, Farrar Wheelwright is called "Tough" because he can step into a bed of pansies (flowers, not "We 13" fellows) and they immediately turn into tiger lilies. Mr. Smith: What is steam? O. B.: Water gone crazy with the heat. LETTERS TO MISS WOOLEY These two letters were received recently by Miss Wooley in appre¬ciation of the fine work she and the dramatic art department are doing: Dear Miss Wooley: The Daughters of Utah Pioneers of Weber county want you to know that they appreciate your courtesy to them in allowing your pupils to entertain our guests so pleasantly. Very truly, MRS. EFFIE HINCHCLIFF, DORA P. HOLTHER. Dear Miss Wooley: Wish to thank you so much for your efforts. The children were just delighted. Everyone said the play was pleasing. They showed I some efficient training, but most of all I enjoyed seeing them come down alone and assume the respon¬sibility of the afternoon. They were just like grownup people. Many, many thanks.

Ogden High School Notes April 7, 1931 RUTH GREAVES, Editor "Gratitude is the interest we expect to collect on a note of obligation, which is not only sometime dishonored, but which comes back to us without protest charges." MARQUIS DE CORNEVILLE Whenever ther is a heroine, there must be a hero, also. Such will you find in the character of the noble Marquis of Corneville, or, in real¬ity, Gilbert Tolhurst. His whole' bearing denotes courage, strength and nobility. After having been banished from Corneville, owing to civil war, he returns to his ances¬tral home, the chateau of Corne¬ville. By his kindness to Germaine he wins her love, and she consents to become his bride. ARLEEN SESSIONS. CAPTAIN SELECTED At the basketball banquet ten¬dered the boys by The Standard-Ex¬aminer, Dale Anderson was elected captain of next year's team. The banquet Wednesday night of last week was a success with the boys and all concerned. Al Warden serv¬ed as toastmaster with numerous other speeches being given by vari¬ous members present among whom was our own Mr. Merrill, who by the way, certainly did a splendid job of such a difficult task. CHATTER AND CHAFF Russell Stone says he's socially ostracised and goes to parties stag: Just a dear without any dough. David Morrell says that ever since he put the picture of Helen in the back of his watch, the hands just won't behave. Lou: How'd you like an ice cream soda? Virginia H.: Fine. I haven't had one in a month of sundaes. We'll either have to stop all prac¬tice debates or put Earl Reeves off from the state team. He couldn't concentrate because that girl he de¬bated against was—well here are his own words of explanation: "She lives in Morgan. Her name is Beth something. Sh-sh-she said goodb-y-e, E-a-r-l." ON EVERY SUBJECT The library means "books" to most of its borrowers; but it should also mean "magazines." On the magazine racks we find current numbers of the best gen¬eral magazines—monthlies like Scribner's, Atlantic, Forum, Current History, World's Work; weekly like Literary Digest, Outlook. These are for use in the library room only. This wealth of current material is made accessible through the mag¬azine indexes, which list, in one al-phabet, articles from all the leading magazines. If you do not know how to use the reader's guide ask the li¬brarian to show you how it is used. Supplement your book reading on any subject with the latest informa¬tion from the magazines. GREGG ARTISTS Well, students, have you seen our new uniforms? Of course, you have. Aren't they sweet? We think they are. Remember some few nights ago we told you to watch for a sur¬prise?
