CHATTER AND CHAFF If you are unlucky, fellows, con¬cerning your dates for the Accolade, you ere not entirely out of a good time and a way of supporting ; your school. Don't forget that the 1 \eam plays a game on Thursday next. A number of dark clouds have been seen to float by during the ; last few days. We wonder if it ] means a storm or merely Mr. Han- i son's minstrel snow on parade. I i Col. Mayer's "Little Dog" seems to 1 know more about the whys of R. O. T. C. than does the little dog of ] Col. Cunningham. i Dee Bramwell will tell you what Claude Stevens looks like. Ask him. It is a name that fits Steve to a T. WANT-AD SECTION Male Help Wanted: A first-class : boy is offered a high-class position by any girl in the school to escort her to the Accolade. The hours are doubtful, the expenses are paid, a good time assured. What more could you ask, men? This cer¬tainly ought to solve any unem- ployment situation that is prevail¬ing. All applications must be in1' not later than Friday. The time to begin worK is nine o'clock at the Berthana ballroom. INTELLIGENCE TEST Where is the native home of the J Wangsgaards? What is the meaning of Carpe Diem? What is a "flooter," and under : what circumstances are you one? Why is wc.ier on the carburetor i as bad as water on the brain? ! . MINSTREL SHOW The music department has again j shown its worth. This time it is I, putting on a minstrel show to help pay for the radio system which has been installed. Tomorrow (Wed¬nesday) evening in the Lewis auditorium the black mates will enter¬tain you with their songs and jokes. Let's all turn out, students, and sup¬port the drive to pay for the radio. AUNT JANE Dear Aunt Jane: It is a problem with a number of girls whether or not it is appro¬priate to send flowers to the fellows for the Accolade. Some want to, and some think it is foolishness. I don't want to be the only one who sends them and yet I don't want to be the only one who doesn't send them. Could you help me out. —Just Me. Answer: The problem of sending flowers to escorts at high school dances has long been a- problem for the stu-dent body officers to work out. Some of the' students think it is their own business whether or not they wish to send them. Others think it is everyone's business. The student body dances are planned to be as informal as possible. The Girls' association does not want the girls to send them, and your dem¬ocratic spirit should prevail over your generous one. Come again. —Aunt Jane. UNABLE TO RETURN We regret to report that our li¬brarian, Mrs. Lilas Raymond, is still unable to report at school. Mrs. Raymond is recovering, but hasn't the necessary strength yet to re¬turn to her work. BASKETBALL The Tigers will encounter the We¬ber team on Thursday at eight o'clock. The game will take place on the Weber gymnasium floor and will be the first home game. Come on, gang! Neither Weber nor Og- den have won a game so far this season and it's bound to be a lucky break for one of us. With our steadily improving team and the unlimited support of the student body we are sure to come out of the fray as victors of the day. HEAR THE RADIO Several Salt Lake principals vis¬ited Ogden High on Saturday to look over the master radio installation at Ogden High school. In the very near future every school will be equipped with radio as is ours. HOME ECONOMICS' PINS Have you noticed our pins? They are silver, designed with the Betty lamp in a circular border and meas-ures approximately one-half inch in diameter. We had our choice be- twkeen bronze and silver pins, be¬cause members of the University Economics clubs have the gold pins, and affiliated high school clubs are only allowed bronze or silver pins. ORATORICAL CONTESTS Students are advised that the spring oratorical contests, the S. A. R,. the D. A. R., the Lewis and the National, will soon be upon us and that now is the time to begin gath¬ering material and formulating the orations. There is much good ma¬terial in school and we must make a very creditable showing in these contests. Ogden High School News jan 22, 1930 Politeness is a tacit agreement that people's miserable defects: whether moral or intellectual, shall on either side be ignored and not made the subject of reproach; and since these defects are thus ren-dered somewhat less obtrusive, the result is mutually advantageous.— Schopenhauer. WHAT COMES FIRST Parents, teachers, students, all are engrossed in the subject, whether or not one's student body or extra-cur¬ricular activities should be in a par¬amount position in one's daily scheme of work. It is quite gener¬ally agreed that bur academic work demands a first place in our school life. It should not be sacrificed for the apparent popularity and fame which certain types of activities tend to create. Such activities as club activties, athletics, social functions, and other student body affairs have their important position to fulfill, but never should they be considered the-most important. School spirit in the true sense can never result from the attitudes of such students. It is evident that certain students find benefit from outside work-only in the fact that a certain note of dis¬tinction goes with it. This is far from the true co-operation and loy¬alty that should result from the in¬itiative and team work that a bal-anced and true effort in student body activities creates. Let us, at Ogden High, have honest to good-ness effort along both lines; never should personal glorification be ahead of personal betterment and enlightenment.—The Editor. THE ACCOLADE The only thing that holds us away from the Accolade now is time. Only two days remain until the girls will be digging down into the depths of their purses and hearts to show the masculine sex how a date should really be conducted. Grand marches, dancing, pretty programs, delightful " refreshments, all are prevailing our dreams. Let us hope that the an¬ticipation will " hot be greater than the fulfillment of the imagination. Don't forget the date, the price or ; the time. R. O. T. C. The crack company is going along merrily toward the accomplishment .of its ambition to be the most pol¬ished group of soldiers to be found anywhere. The rifle team recently chose Junior Cazier as captain of the team. We wish them success in their quest for the Hearst trophy. In the companies, work is advancing to the more technical and intricate details that are necessary to perfect the best unit in the Ninth corps area. The sponsors are doing their bit to bolster the spirit and morale of the fellows. Never have we had a bet¬ter, more liked group of girls. Col¬onel Cunningham, who is in San Francisco, is reported to be in fine ; trim according to the results of his physical examination. AUNT JANE Dear Aunt Jane: What and how many are the re¬maining dances of the year? When do they take place and what is the "motive behind each?—One who be¬lieves in preparation. Answer: There are, besides the Accolade, which appears Friday, four other regular high school social functions. They are held once a month. The Cadet Hop, held by the military de¬partment for the cadets, comes on February 21. Then comes the Classicalia, which is held to help pay for the annual Classicum. After the Classicalia, which is held March 21, comes the Junior Prom, the dance given by the juniors for the seniors. The last dance, the Senior ball, is a faculty treat. It is open to grad¬uating seniors only. The prom comes in April and the ball in May. These remaining parties are some of our prettiest and it would pay one to arrange to attend all of them.—Aunt Jane. HALL OF FAME We nominate to our hall of fame: Rader Deegan. Because public pressure is too great. Even though he was not to appear in the hall of fame his virtues were so exempli¬fied that a hall of fame without him would seem as an assembly without a racket. Because he is rather hazy when the nature of certain chemical compounds is concerned. Because his most famous saying is: "Don't do as I do; do as I say." Because little Susie will soon have a brother-in- law if reports are true. Edwin Smith, alias Uncle Ed. Be¬cause laughing gas was the only thing that ever got him in the hall of fame. Because he not only be¬lieves himself but he also- expects others to do likewise. Because he got so angry the other day that he even crawled the frame of his be¬loved fifth period class. -That is a thing hardly to be believed. -- Maxine Fox. Because she believes that in true praise lies the only spur to betterment. That is the why of her complimentary talks to the com¬panies. Because she believes that the report, "eighty men absent, sir," is merely a means of getting "Sarge" stirred up into a tantrum so he can tell the "caydets" to make the "old bean function." GREGG ARTISTS Meeting was called to order by President Lois Robinson. Future plans were discussed, and soon you will see us with our new pins. It was agreed upon that four new senior members would be taken into the club, and anyone interested in shorthand and desirous of joining our club is invited to attend our. meetings every Friday afternoon in Miss Stephenson's room. All mem¬bers must have an average grade in shorthand of B or better. We unanimously elected Mr. Farnsworth and Miss Stephenson to be our advisors, and with the combined aid of these two excellent teachers, our club shall certainly be an industrious one. "Gregg Artists" is our new name and "Gregg Artists" we will be. Our officers are: Lois Robinson, president; Erma Funk, vice presi¬dent, and Rachel Medoway, secre¬tary—Selma Rosenthall. YEARBOOK PICTURES Have you noticed the window dec¬orations in the photographer's stu¬dio? Judging from the appearance of things, Robert Parks has com¬pletely overcome his inferiority com¬plex. Several other lively students have also taken advantage of the prices offered, lor pictures through our contract. Now is the time to get your pictures. Don't wait. Let's have a snappy yearbook out early, so order your cuts now.—Yearbook Editor. H. C. MEETING H. C. Held its usual meeting on Thursday the sixteenth. The min¬utes were read and approved. The main topics discussed were: The planning of a bob sleigh party and also planning for an excellent program to be given next Thurs¬day or the following Thursday. The meeting was a very brief one, due, perhaps, to the fact that Jim Edwards, the club president, wanted to walk at least one block home with j his girl friend.—Club reporter, Ruth Gibbons. AMIGOS DEL MUNDO After President Konold had called meeting to order by the usual meth- ad, a report from the party commit¬tee was called for. It seems that they decided to take a night Saturday and have a bob party. Of course everyone else agreed to this superb suggestion, and arrangements were made for our sleigh and horses. Boys! Watch your behavior! We i are all asking partners, and let me ! tell you every one of the club mem- ] bers is going. j After a hilarious ride we are go- I ing down to the noodle parlor. We are going to announce this fact: A. D. M. has pep.—Lois Rob¬inson, reporter. NOTICE All work for the next issue of the quarterly should be in by Monday, February 3, and not later than Friday, February 8. It will be a Pierrot and Pierrette issue with a carni¬val idea prevailing throughout. Please try to arrange your work so that the material will be in on time.—The- Editor, Quarterly Classicum. BASKETBALL Due to the Accolade, which will be held Friday, the game with Weber ; will take place on Thursday. The 1 game will start promptly at 8:15. This will be the first home game and is played annually to decide the 1 city championship. If you wish a ' victory for the" team, be there and - ' yell for them.- LOCAL FIVES PREPARED FOR CLOSE BATTLE Warriors Favored Over Tigers; Bees Play Bears On Friday OGDEN DIVISION Standing of the Teams W.
