TIGER TROUNCES BEAR The Orange Streaks Had little dif¬ficulty in disposing of the Bears in Bear River City last Friday. Gain¬ing the lead from the first they held complete control throvshout the game. The addition of UVt, a new man in the lineup, added consider¬ably to the spirit of the team. Ths efforts of Messrs. Hilton, Mayer, Foley, Hunter and Stitt were appre¬ciated by the splendid crowd that went up to see the game and to support the team. The yelling was excellent; Ogden High can well feel proud of her sons. Now we have one defeat and two victories to our credit; what is to stop us from the regional championship again this year? We'll make the old Tiger smile yet. On to Davis, gang. Let's give them a demonstration of what the "underdogs" can do. If we beat Davis, what can keep us from that championship? Not only will we make the Tiger smile; we'll make her go into hysterics. FAMOUS BROTHERS Another pair of fraters who cer¬tainly add their bit to O. H. S. are the Foley brothers, Joe and Frannie. Joe is a football man of no mean capability. He is a junior class representative and belongs to We 13 and I Wannan O clubs. Frannie .shines at both football and : basketball. He is one of the best guards we have seen lately. He shares with his brother in member-ship in We 13 and I Wannan O. The two are known about school for their spirit and support of student activities. CHATTER AND CHAFF Iras Leavitt is ill. She is recover¬ing from a bad cold. We hope to see you with us soon again, I;as. Company C is going to the digs without you. i Old man Hilton's red hair nearly caught fire once or twice up at 1 Bear River. Once he and some Bear Riverite thought they were playing i a game of "I touched you last" and Jackie almost got a lust for b'ood that he couldn't quench. i Have you been initiated? If you haven't, apply after school for mem- J bership. Messrs. McKey, Foley, Tribe, etc., etc., will only be too 1 glad to show you the requirements, e Hugh Mayer was initiated, but at 1 what a cost to the members. e What, fellow students, had the ' greatness of Robert E. Lee and U. S. Grant to do with the prices of I rubber teeth? Mrs. Irwin has been t trying to find this out. And to \ comply with her wishes a number of students have been attempting 1 to answer her. " t There is one girl in this school i who deliberately comes up behind s you in the dark and trips you irom a behind. She got too frisky the other evening coming home from a Bear River and while Beech McConnell was walking to the nearest d farm house for a bucket of guz she t tried her little trick and got the J worst of it. ii AUNT JANE'S CORNER s; Dear Aunt Jane: 1 Could you please tell us why, with all the Friday evenings of the year " and with all the other nights, a P! basketball game must be played the 11 night of the Cadet Hop? The olfi- ™ cers who play on the team .mist n either miss part of the danco r p the game must be held on another night. It doesn't seem fair to me that those who contribute so much to the advancement of the school as do the basketball team shouH be forced to miss the best part of the dance. What can . be done about it? —A Worried Sponsor. Dear Sponsor: I Your comment seems to be one of the ironies of fate. Those who give so much it seems must be so treat¬ed. The only other thing It is possible to do is to change the date of th gams, which, I must admit, doesn't seem very likely. It would , be a fine thing for council to turn some of its pentup energy loose on. ; Wait a few days; maybe council will make an effort in your behalf. , —Aunt Jane. PHI LAMBDA TAU Imagine it! The rifle team has challenged Phi Lambda Tau to a rifle shoot. The team will have to be patted on the back because of their nerve. Not many people would challenge us. Here is another semester and Phi Lambda is all ready for it. The same officers will stay in office. They are: President Lucille Van Dyke; vice president, Florence Cave; secretary, Lucille Hales, and re¬porter, Pat Fredrickson. We are proud of these officers, and we are sure they will be just as satisfac- i tory this semester as they were last. During last semester we accom¬plished more, even, than we expect¬ed to. All our parties were very successful, our meetings were made more interesting by good programs, - the trips to the rifle range were great, and now we are working on the first club scrap-book in O. H S —Pat. WE 13 On Saturday evening We 13 held I the first moonlight skiing party ever to be held at O. H. S. The fellows nad a great time. Our ex-members were also in attendance on prom¬ises that they mend their ways On Thursday last, officers were elected. Dee Bramwell now pounds the gavel. O. H. S. AND WEST HIGH Wednesday afternoon at 1:30 o clock a trial debate on the state question, "Resolved, that the Utah compulsory age law should be changed from 18 to 16 years," was heLd Salt Lake wtih Ada Sailor and Dena Liapis of Ogden uphold¬ing the affirmative and Helen Smith and Edna Silver of West High, the negative. Critic was Miss Dorothy gvine, former teacher at Ogden The girls are said to have had "a wonderful time." After being treat¬ed to lunch in the West High cafeteria were shown through the entire building, from the roof (where they have a wonderful tele-scope, Stellae) to the furnace room irom which there is an underground tunnel leading to the school. (Thev were taken through it, too) The West Hight school is probab¬ly the best in the state and offers training in many vocational subjects including art copper, leather de¬signing, printing, china painting and auto mechanics. Thursday afternoon the West High affirmative team, composed of Jack Thacker and Les Rich, came to Og¬den to debate with our negative team, Herbert Stewart and Dovle Jenson. The Salt Lakers had lunch m our cafeteria, and at 2 o'clock they debated in the library. Many students attended the debate, and i I m sure they enjoyed it. I Besides the practice and benefit derived from these debates the oc- casions tend to establish better feel¬ing between the two schools, and we appreciate the opportunities we have of sportsmanlike verbal com¬petition as well as athletics.

TO DAVIS, ON TO DAVIS With another championship in view, we encounter our greatest competitor Friday in the Weber gym. Davis High, according to re¬ports, is about as strong a team as they make in high schools. So they thought of Weber. Look what a lit¬tle courage and fight did in that case. Defying the reports that Og¬den High stood no chances for do¬ing things in basketball this year, Coach Kapple has rounded into shape one of the most spirited and scrappiest teams yet to grace the Tiger lair. They have overcome two seemingly invincible foes. Now, withjfce addition of Stitt, we may worrayvonders against Davis. The team, good though it is, is still on the upward climb, and has yet to reach its best form. Everybody out to see another Tiger victory at the Weber gym Friday. Your student body tickets are good. Don't forget your yells and songs. ORATORICAL CONTEST Calls have been made for the S. A. R. and the D. A. R. oratorical contests. If you possess any ora¬torical ability at all you are urged to try out. It is a splendid experi- f ence. The subject for the D. A. R. contest is national defense. The field is optional for the S. A. R. Let's have 'a big representation. You certainly will not regret having made the effort. BOOSTER CLUB The girls are going the limit in supporting the team of Ogden High school. A fine booster club is now In the making. Two spirited girls of the high school have composed a very worth while pep song. This song has been accepted by Mr. Han¬sen, out talented music instructor, as a big step toward the establishment of a club to boost the boys on to victory in our games. It is probable that short pep meetings will be held at noon and that we will practice the new song. We also hope to have many more new songs to add to the small collection we now have. Anybody especially gifted in writing songs should do so and see that they are given to the school. Because of their late start, the girls will not likely have much in the way of uni¬forms, but when it comes to yells, songs, and pep they will be there 100 per cent. The arrangements have not yet been completed and fur¬ther information will be posted lat¬er. AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Aunt Jane: I received an invitation for the Accolade from a girl with whom I had never been out before. We had a very fine time and I was treated well. Is it proper that I should take her to the cadet hop, even though I would rather go with another girl? I wish to be fair and to do the correct thing; however, since I made no ap¬proaches to the girl before, I can't see that I owe her anything, espe¬cially, CRACK COMPANY. Answer: It is always nice, if you have been asked to the Accolade, to reciprocate by asking the girl who entertained you to the hop or some other high school function, prefer¬ably a dance. It is not necessary, but courtesy asks that you return the favor in some way. Most of the fellows pay their debt as soon as possible. The hop is a dance where all are urged to have the most en¬joyable time possible, and I can not blame you for taking the view you do. On the other hand, one never loses or makes a mistake when he does the courteous thing. AUNT JANE. CADET HOP FEW DAYS OFF Believe it or not, there are only 15 school days left until the mili¬tary rules the world. Not much time to make that date. Some of the choicest early worms have been grabbed off by the earliest birds. You had better get yours in a hurry. Whatever you do, fellow students, don't miss the hop. It is about as fine and pretty a dance as Ogden High ever holds. "Sarge" Holloway , is working hard with his crack com- ' pany. He promises us a fine drill 1 the night of the 21st. Tickets will : be one dollar. CHATTER AND CHAFF We wonder if Max got a strained I neck posing for her picture in skis? 1 The picture was very pretty, girls. ; Carpe Diem members have sworn j that they will go on a diet hence- j forth until temptation next crosses I . their way. If you had seen all the food they packed away at their party Saturday you would have thought they were training to do a marathon sword act. Will Jim DeVine merit an apol¬ogy? We wonder? Time will sure¬ly tell— BETA ZETA TAU Did you know that young ever- ; green trees could look like human forms-—crouching, moving stealthi- , ly along ready to pounce on you any minute? Neither did we until Sat¬urday night. Between trees and newly made graves, we were very frightened (the girls, of course). But don't think we are the only girls I who ever get frightened that wayL 1 11f you were tipped from the bob about five feet from a new grave you'd be frightened, too. After the bob party, we went to the hoodie parlor and every one had the best time. We'll all re-member the party. FLORENCE DAWSON.

T. H. CUNNINGHAM, Lt. Col., U. S. A!., Retired OH, ARTISTS The drama—the glowing embers of the life of the school—the rising pulse, surging, red blood. Fall in line, my legions! The march is on! The new Ogden Dramatic club has an aim to revive and organize students who have ably taken part in major dramatic performances during the year and who still have warm enthusiasm toward that work. All other students who are inter¬ested in oral expression are invited to attend our meetings and take part in our enterprises that they may prove their worth and ability. The most original talent will be listed on our probation list for lat¬er consideration as future member¬ship. Come in, students, and give us your interest and we will give you our encouragement. DEVOTEE—FOSS HEINER. Ogden Feb. 5-1930 High School News Henry Aiken, editor-in-chief Lucille Summers amd Dena Liapis assistant editors. He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that rul- eth his spirit than he that taketh a city.—Proverbs. There are a great number of in ___ - dividual. in this world who believe- that enthusiasm and co-operation are merely a lot of warm air. They condemn the person who preaches school spirit. They think teams win as many games when there is no one to see them as when a whole student body is present. Don't fool yourself, fellow student. If you have ever done anything in a stu¬dent body way you know that to have a solid backing of the students I will make you fight in a way that I no individual effort could. Talk to the members of the team; they will tell you what it means to have the support of the student body. They will also tell you that about three- fifths of the student body sit in a back seat and watch the other two- fifths do all of the supporting. Og¬den High has done big things; she will continue to do big things. But "students, how much greater would 'her zenith be if all of us give .our suooort . In the game against Davis, let's turn out en masse. If you don't believe it will have an effect, talk to Les or Frannie or some other fellow who knows. I CADET HOP NEARER. Another day has passed. Another chance to notify that lucky girl has been delayed. Boy, if you know your stuff, nothing wilj keep you from phoning the lady friend right after you read this. Now is the time to do the work, now. Lay down this paper and make another poor lone¬some little soul happy. Maybe she has a date, you say? Listen, faint heart, if she refuses you can get a huge amount of consolation by re¬turning the compliment with the words: "Say, I've been turned down by better girls than you." Remem- 1 ber, the date is February, the twenty-first, the day before Wash¬ington's birthday. Tickets are one dollar per couple. If you . are taking drill your parents will receive an invitation free of charge. Urge them to attend; they will enjoy the drill and the dance. CHATTER AND CHAFF. Gee, but that DeVine boy .does grow those whiskers. We wonder if ne uses hair tonic. Ask him what he's training for. You'll be inter¬ested. Beth Peck is in the pest hut. She had some tough luck while trying to stop a toboggan by running her foot under it. Consequently her ankle balked and now she is laid UP with a broken bone. Too bad, Beth. We hops your recovery will be speedy. A number of the shin¬ing examples of budding humanity around here miss you considerably. Food for thought: E. S. Smith keeps alive and peppy during the winter months by eating cod liver pills. He says tney are truly de¬licious. If you are in the habit of eating four eggs in the morning for breakfast juso take a cod liver pill. They are just as nourishing. This is what Mr, Smith says. How true it is is hard to say. Colonel Cunningham ss back rrom the coast. The cadets are all very glad to have him back. He was certainly missed while away. The only club that hasn't given a skiing party is Forum. They don't have to ski to get skinned. Their assembly is now under way. Remem¬ber their last assembly? Johnny Carver almost spilled the beans last year. Take that as literally as you like. |
