There's a seat down at Davis for each and every member of this school, next Friday. It would be a shame, students, to let this chance go by to prove to Davis that Ogden is the peppiest school in seventeen states. But aside from this, the team needs you. You know no matter how good a team is, that twelfth player is absolutely necessary to keep the old fight in them, to make them want to win. So let's all be there Friday at Davis to keep the old fight and a smiling team, if for nothing else. ANOTHER REMINDER. Don't forget the "get-acquainted" dance, next Friday, the 4th. It is given by the student body for the student body so your student body tickets will admit you. Because it . is a student body dance, we want the whole school to turn out and make it go over in a big way. r "Stags" are solicited, and let's save . the formality for the later events. I Remember, the 4th at the Berthana. R. O. T. C. Slowly but surely the R. O. T. C. j is beginning to round into shape. ! With the appointment of the of-ficers and the "noncoms" sometime ; in the near future, a great amount i of "seeding and weeding" is being I done by Sergeant Holloway and Colonel Cunningham to see who will be colonel, who captains and whq "shavetails." I By Armistice day, when the [cadets first strut their stuff in pub- "T the reSim2nt will again be in I the form that has made us honor j, school for five years. TRANSPORTATION TO DAVIS. I You don't have to worry, now, ! I about your means of transportation I to Davis. A Bamberger car has 1 been chartered and you can secure ; a round trip ticket for 60 cents. 1 Let's fill it up and go to Davis. , SCRAP BOOK EDITOR. ! Persons interested in trying out I for scrap book editor are urged to make it known to Mrs. Irwin be- i fore the end of the week. The scrap J book contains all O. H. S. notes, i editorials, pictures of O. H. S. ath letes and students, write-ups on dances, dance programs, etc. If in- terested send in names to Mrs. Irwin immediately. PHI LAMBDA TAU. Phi Lambda Tau had its get-ac- ? Quainted party Friday evening at c Marion Allison's home. We played c bunco and then we had a dainty card table luncheon. Did we have \ a good time? Well, did you ever r I hear of a Phi Lambda Tau party : where they didn't have a "keen" : time? Of course not! And—we had - a better time than that. \ WHO'S NEW IN THE FACULTY. I Mr. Taggart. our new French \ teacher, is another loyal son of this I city. He graduated both from the l University of Utah and, so he tells 1 us, from the school of hard knocks. \ At the "U" he received an A. B. i Since then he has taught two years t at Central Junior. He is newly I married and claims to enjoy it very s much. On Peach day Mr. Taggart I went to Brigham and picked I peaches on his father's farm (so he told his French classes) and got goose feathers in his eyes. We hope you'll like "Ogden High, Mr. Taggart. - v R. O. T. C. COMMENDED. d Col. Thomas Cunningham has S just received a letter from Col H L. Jordan, in charge of Ninth corps h area. Colonel Jordan says, among B other things: s "See in the N. Y. Times where e: Ogden again got H. H. S. designa- P tion. Congratulations to all con- d cerned. They certainly do things r in fine style in Ogden and I am O very fond of the town and the school officials. Please give my kindest regards tp the superintend¬ent and principal, and say howdy to Sergt. Holloway and the other sergeants if they are still there. "Have just returned from a tour in Hawaii. Am glad to get home and"! see real white folks and real ne-T' groes again. "My best to the Mrs. and yourself „ "Yours, 1 "H. L. JORDAN." Oct. 3, 1929 - Ogden high School Nes EDITORIAL j \\ At the game tomorrow Ogden n High will make its first appearance at an athletic conest. Let's give Davis a real demonstration of fine sportsmanship. Fair play in the 1 v grandstands is always as important ; :1' as fair play on the field. When Davis makes a good play it is our duty to cheer that play as though it were ! our own. When our players do the ." same give them your approval. If a is Davis man is hurt it is courtesy tc e be considerate, and if the umpire's y decision is not exactly as you think it it should be, say nothing. He proba- it bly is right and certainly he knows d the game or he wouldn't be an of- . ficial. If victorious, don't knock,13 e and if defeated, be game. s s. j All this is your part, students, i. Show Davis that Ogden High is a school of good sports. r COUNCIL President Stewart called Council 1 - to order. The roll was called and e the minutes were read and correct- t ed. H.

WHO'S NEW IN THE FACULTY Although the absence of Miss Irvine is to be regretted, the students of the spoken word are more than delighted with her successor, Miss Stohl. Miss Stohl is a Salt Lake product, 1 having been graduated with an A. B. degree at the University of Utah, c She has"received her training in oral expression at the Royal Academy of Public Speaking in London. As she 1 dislikes publicity we will leave the rest of the judging of her to you. . Ogden High wishes you success this f year, Miss Stohl. I SCHOOL PLAY TRYOUTS Tryouts for the school play will be held soon. Miss Stohl read the play in the library this afternoon. It is "The Poor Nut," a delightful play in a collegiate atmosphere. If you have any drama in your soul at all, Miss Stohl urges your appear¬ance in the tryouts. The success of j the school play depends on the abil-1 ity of its cast. Who knows but what j you are the one to demonstrate that; ability? REMINDERS What happens the 4th? Ogden High plays Davis, at Davis; "Get Acquainted Dance" is held at the Berthana. Student body tickets are good. Be there. Let's fill that Bamberger car up and go down to Davis 100 per cent strong. The fare is 60 cents, round V trip. Admission 25c, and S. B. ticket. SCHOOL SAVINGS The school savings of Ogden High a are on the increase. We are depos- ? iting more money lately than ever before. Get the Tuesday banking, f j habit, students, and if you haven't! opened an account as yet, do it next! Tuesday. Let's have 100 per cent « thrift in O. H. S. _ SNAKE DANCE TONIGHT A pep rally and snake dance will be held tonight. It will begin at v High school at 7:30. Everybody be d there, on time.

May the blessings of heaven attend them in their deep sorrow. tl STUDENT VISITOR The high school was given a oi pleasant visit on Monday by a for¬mer student, Fred Stephens, who is now with the navy and has spent vi the past several months in Panama, a] working in the submarine salvage h department. He reports that he gi likes the navy and gets quite a thrill e; in his deep sea work. He expects to . complete his navy work in another year's time. Ogden Oct. 4, 1929 . . High School News HENRY AIKEN, Editor Pro-Tem j I-WANNON-O ' I-Wannon-O met Wednesday eve tr " ning at Bob Barker's, Maximo-Wan a' i non-O Deegan presiding. This meet n f ing was our best so far this yeai ? Means of bettering school spirit am L ; sportsmanship were discussed. Henry Aiken was elected council mem f, - ber. A committee was appointee to secure ties for the club. A tall ' was given on Benjamin Franklin, ai t a master mind of science by Henry Aiken. Mr. Smith also gave us som I new ideas on Franklin. After a watermelon bust in Bob's kitchen, we . adjourned. SCHOOL PLAY TRYOUTS The school play was read Thurs¬day after school in the library. It was well received and from the looks of it we're going to have a worthy successor to "The Patsy" this year. Tryouts will be held soon.; GET-ACQUAINTED DANCE Don't I or get the get-acquainted dance tonight, every one. Come and help make this dance one of the best Ogden high ever gave. Stu¬dent body tickets are good. "Stags" are solicited. GIRLS' MEETING On Wednesday morning at 8:30 a special meeting of Ogden High, girls will be held in the assembly room. We desire that every girl of Oct. 5, 1929 Ogden High School News (Henry Aiken, Editor Pro-tem.) DAVIS BEATS OGDEN, 7-6 In one of the most spectacular - and hard played games Ogden has ever engaged in, the Davis gridders downed our men, 7 to 6, last Fri¬day, at Davis. The game certainly proved the fineness of our men. They played like heroes and deserve a great deal more praise than the score would indicate. The grand¬stands gave fine demonstrations of good sportsmanship and yelling. Congratulations, Davis. Your spirit is fine and you have a great team. O. H. S. NOTES TYPIST The greatest number of heroes go unheard and unsung. Thus it is ! in newspapers. The typists and their kind, the ones who give the paper the last touches, often are never ! known. Students, we wish to intro-i ' duce Miss Lucile Van Dyke, the O. H. S. notes typist. DANCE A SUCCESS j Our social calendar started off with a bang at the get-acquainted dance last Friday. The decorations were collegiate in atmosphere; the refreshments were lavish owing to a duplicate order, but even at that we consumed everything. A good time was had by all and the student body officers in charge deserve a big hand. It was the largest school dance in years. BELIEVE IT OR NOT Doc Stone attributes the fact that he can play football to the fact that he belongs to the Sophisticat¬ed Order of the Twelfth Street Schoolboys. Ed Smith says that school chil¬dren are like melted glass. Melted glass is awfully soft. The football team is practicing this week on the sides of Malan's peak so as to get used to an up¬hill football field, preparatory to our game with Box Elder, Rriday. We had more students at the Da¬vis game than we have had at an outside game in years. We shall have still more at the Box Elder game. Shall we have a special excursion? Of course! AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Aunt Janes: Can you inform me about the truth of the rumor that is going 3 around saying that there will be no Halloween dance? A junior. Dear Junior: Owing to the fact that the date for our Halloween dance was re-,r served by another organization at ; the Berthana, Council decided that . J the Halloween dance would be drop- \ ped this year and that the next "WE 13" REPORT e Just as an airplane rises rapidly from the ground, "We 13" have be¬gun our study of aviation this year. Up to this time we have staged a I get-together party and have started I to study extensively the parts of a e plane and their functions. „ We give fair warning to the other clubs of the school that we are out H to beat any and all records set by i clubs in previous years. DEE BRAMWELL, Sergeant-at-Arms. e FORUM The members and waiting list of 1 Forum get great pleasure out of" debating and studying argumenta- : tion. We have had two interesting '0 debates this fall and in the future hj we plan to have many debates and ly talks concerning the ethics of de- )fj bate. REST ROOM OPENED The rest room was reopened this! year, October 1, with a capable staff p of attendants in charge. There are H two attendants present in the rest r room each period, beginning with! the second. They are, respectively, D Delano Roberts and Lorna Evans,! Enola Johnson and Connie Jorgen- K son, Shirley Halverson and Marion C Clark, Ursel Baxter and Janet Man- p ning, Nelda Sessions and Dorothy Varney. I The rest room is designed andp maintained to care for those whofti are ill and unable to go home or B who may by resting a period return 4 to classes. No student is permit- & ted to visit the rest room during I the school hours without an admit- pi tance slip from the teacher to it whose class the student belongs or v from the office. If the student is ( too ill to get a slip, one of the at- tendants may do so. A roll is kept I every day of the students present, s accompanied by the admittance slips. j, In addition to the medicinal sup- f plies, a well-equipped sewing-box is provided for use of the students, We hope to make the rest room au I real service to the girls of the a school—Lorna Evans. n BIG SISTERS' WEEK At last it is here. Today marked f;'; the beginning of the annual Big Sister week. This school activity b is sponsored by the Girls' association. Last year was the first time that anything of this sort was tried, It proved to be so successful t'natB in the future it will be an annual E affair. o Each senior girl is given a junior girl for her little sister. It is fy her duty to see that she is taken L around the school and introduced to L new friends. There are many more T juniors in the school, for that rea- h son some Big Sisters have moreUi than one little sister. If for anyto reason they can't act as Big Sisters j- they should immediately notify b Guinevere Hess, Shirley Halverson, jo j Clarrisa Gould, Eleanor Stevens, fc Charlene Scowcroft, Ada Sailor, or i Mrs. Irwin. In this way every junior will be sure to have a Big Sister. At the end of the week a party & is given in honor of the juniors, y There will be games, stunts, vaude-:'( ville and refreshments. Everyone f will be assured of a glorious time, w Come one, come all, and make Big; Sister week a happy time for all. k _ —Ada Sailor. Another pep assembly was held u Thursday. Superintendent Hopkins ,1 pepped us up considerably by his j. talk. After a short yell practice rj classes were resumed. ate team, and to beat Congress in ur big debate. 5 DEE BRAMWELL. n i BELIEVE IT OR NOT Every student at Ogden went to Davis today. h Rader Deegan says that' he t "might" take Iras to the dance to- J night. L J Dad Beeson nearly had a fit of g apoplexy the other day, trying to g teach his fifth period class the I "how" of solid geometry. L THE UNSOLVED PROBLEM One of the big problems of life f is the choosing of a vocation. Nat- t urally every boy and every girl would , like to do the thing that he or she I can best do. But no one knows j what this thing is. All through the t " 'teens" young people are changing ( their attitudes and conceptions. The j boy will be now a conductor, a policeman, a storekeeper, a naturalist, ) a doctor, a banker, a lawyer, etc., ad infinitum. At practically no time can a par- i ent or teacher step in and say, "You t should be this or you should be j that." , What, then, can be done about it? As for the teacher, he can do this: He can try to sell the idea of the , I necessity for bringing a healthy i body and a happy frame of mind "! into the day's work and the value j of doing an honest-to-goodness day's work in whatever task or duty lies , at hand. ! Beyond this the teacher can not do much.
