Show AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Aunt Jane: When is the student body presi¬dent of next year chosen? When are the members of council chosen? It seems to me funny that council can function so early in the year when most organizations are just getting started in the first week or so of September. —Junior. Dear Junior: The student body president of next year is chosen in April or early May. He is elected by this year's student body. The group of this year are much better able to judge the worth of a fellow than] are a gang of green juniors just up t from junior highs. This is why the- student body presidents are chosen by the preceding student body. The club representatives for the most part are elected the last of this year 1 to serve next. The only ones whc 1 must be elected next year are thi j class officers and representatives The business managers and editor; are all elected this year too, so yoi see that council almost has ful strength by the second week , o: . school in the fall. ' —Aunt Jane. CLASSICALLY The Classicalia will be held or;' the twenty-eighth this year. Thfi committee is doing some tall work¬ing and thinking to make this th best Classicalia that you ever at¬tended or will attend. The studem , body is urged to co-operate with thi , Classicalia committee in an en . deavor to make this one of ou most beautiful and finest dances Let's get our dates early if we'r taking them; if not, spend youi money on a picturesque costume Everybody get the Classicalia spirit CHATTER AND CHAFF Carpe Diem had a shindig befori the game last Friday. It was hel at Charlene's. We hope they had i good time. There are about 10 boys in thi, school who have dates with th queen for the Classicalia. We won¬der just which lucky boy will wir out. Perry Warde wonders why Joe Foley reminds us of Henry Clay Won't you help her out, fellow stu¬dent? Famous last words: Oh, the mor we are together the merrier we'l be. Hod Nebeker is gaining bacl some of the lost weight which In lost last week. He attx-ibutes th fact to bear meat. WEST POINT APPOINTMENT Word has been received that Eliot Sampson, formerly senior class pres¬ident of Ogden High, has passed the West Point entrance test with the second high rating. This is a very fine record. Eliot now attends the Weber college. Ross, an older brother, will graduate from the military academy this spring. Aren't you sorry girls aren't allowed, Dor¬othy? PHI LAMBDA TAU "Say, we want a snappy report on this party, and we don't mean may¬be." "Good grief, yes, let's have a good report once." "Ya, tell 'em that Friday night, after the game. Phi Lambda Tau, had one of its biggest and best par¬ties. Lay it on thick, and let every¬body know that Madeline Malan is a real hostess, and that Phi Lambda Taif has parties that are worth be- I ing at." "Well, no, I wouldn't say it in ex¬actly tnat way—but let them know that this was a jolly little affair." "Don't forget to tell them about the eats. Oh, that cake, boyee!" Etc., etc., ad infinitum. Then this little reporter got angry and went home. PAT. P. S.—It was really a "snorty" party, though. March 4, 1930 OGDEN . .

The C( team is priming itself to hand out to the Davis squad a beating for the j narrow victory which luck dealt out to them a few weeks ago. They ap- — preciate the splendid support that! r the student body has given them c3 thus far this year. It has added no j mean bit to their ability to come t out of a pinch and to play hard when the odds were against them, q Let's have the support of every stu- r dent down at Davis on Friday evening. In all probability a bus will € be chartered. No matter how you j have to go don't worry about that. c The main thing is go down to Davis to help the team to win the last vie- E tory in league competition this year. : t Good luck, men! Let's have some j real team play. CLASSICALIA The days are slipping by and ; fewer and fewer are the evenings j which remain for you to plan your ] costume md to get your date. Let's have everyone appear at the Classicalia in costume this year. The costumes greatly enhance the spirit that for eight or more years has given the Classicalia a unique place in the annals of Ogden High. Tick¬ets are 50 cents each. If you get a date you must buy two tickets. No dollar tickets will be sold. ADA, A SAILOR FOR QUEEN Students, here is your chance to support a girl that has done big things for Ogden High. Last year she was secretary of the junior class. This year she is president of the Girls' association. In each ca¬pacity she has given whole-hearted and untiring effort in behalf of these respective organizations. Ada is certainly the girl who deserves your vote on the ballots which will come out soon and which will give you the opportunity to show a great scout and a fine girl how much the student body appreciates her efforts in your behalf. Vote for Ada Sailor for queen. (Political Advertisement.) QUARTERLY OUT THIS WEEK On Friday next the third issue of the Quarterly Classicum will appear. It is full rf fine things this time and the student body will greatly enjoy it. The plan for publication this time is the Carnival Issue, tak¬ing the spirit of the Classicalia for the theme. Success, Bernice. TERM ALMOST OVER It is certainly hard to believe, but there remains barely thirteen weeks more of school. Two more terms and the senior class of 1930 will forever be out of the scope of Ogden High's jurisdiction. It seems rather terrifying at times to think that some of the students must in three months start on their road through life little knowing where the path may lead or what the winds of fortune will avail. It surely behooves one to take advantage of the multitude of advantages that modern high school education of¬fers to the student who will par¬take of the feast that is set before him. Whether we go on to a high¬er institution or not we will do well ' to specialize and to make an ex¬haustive study of some one phase of academic work. It is the world of specialization today and the man or woman who gets ahead in school , and in life is the man or woman ! who has made a thorough study of one particular line of work. Let's partake of the feast offered to us and at the end of 1930 we will have some place in the great world that awaits our commencement. YOU APPRECIATE THEM? It seems an almost tragic fact that the students who give most to their school are most generally crit¬ icised for their pains. Athletes, class officers, council, editors, clubs and club members, debators, all manner F of students who give to their school ber something of a constructive nature ten seem to be so little appreciated and rici so little recognized by the student ha1 body at large. It is regrettable, of giv course, that there are not posi- ma tions for every student in the school, dei It is also sad that every student 15 does not belong to a club. The fact clu remains, however, that those who col do occupy their respective positions vis in the student body have obtained ga their' place by consistent and hard work. There is no easy road to be- ea come the star on the team. It is de not every fellow that can be student body president. It is not ac every girl who can edit the quarter- W( ly. Still a great number of the stu¬dents grumble because the team doesn't win the regional champion¬ship or because council does not h take some vigorous. action on some ge pet scheme. It is almost without ™ exception that those who occupy the positions they hold are the best to be found and have secured their jobs by merit and not by any other means. It remains therefore for the ll rest of us to be constructive in our criticism of fellow students who are working in our behalf. CHATTER AND CHAFF jj The officers are getting powerful hungry waiting for that sponsor's n- banquet. A number who have been a fasting for it are losing a lot of. a needed weight. c; Do you recognize the happy. 0 rather heavy set fellow who is of; such great assistance to Wally Manning at the games? That's Johnny Carver, last year's tape roller. It's a funny thing how we get such a v kick out of coming back to jobs fc which we used to hold and to give. 0 the fellow who holds it after us a _ bit of help and a bit of advice where we failed or where we made mis- ] takes There's only one dark horse in the race; she isn't exactly a horse but she's dark and plenty nice. That's a good girl! Deegan's famous last words: "To be or not to be; that is the ques¬tion." FAMOUS BROTHERS Do you remember Blaine Morse of two years ago, fellow student? He was quite a big "Shot" while at-tending this institute of penal ser¬vitude. His footsteps are being lit¬erally traced this year by his young¬er brother, Grant. Both of the Morse brothers have their well ; known virtues and vices. Grant is a member of We 13 and Forum. He plays first clarinet in the band and second fiddle at the game of love. All in all the Morse family have ; been quite an addition to O. H. S. By the way, the Hopkins family from father to sons have done tall things for O. H. S. We'll turn the I spotlight on them soon. Ogden High School News 1 How bitter a thing it is to look into happiness through another man's eyes.—From "As You Like It. THE SILENT CALL It is, of course, a fact that Ogden High still has the same old building with the same old prospects for get¬ting a new one. Time aftei time appeals are made to one source and then to another with the view oi obtaining some kind of a united eft fort to accomplish our aim of hav¬ing a new high school before the present generation dies of old age. Few things are needed worse m Og¬den than a new high school. Few thtnes if improved would reap big¬ger harvest The old adage, "In ' the education of its people lies the safety of the republic," is as true t in Ogden as it is anywhere else. Not Promises have been made; speeches have been given; articles have been G written; it bodes no good for the H youth of Ogden even after many A good intentions have been announc- R ed. There are literally hundreds of L reasons why Ogden should build a E new high school. The main one, of course, is that the present school is E antiquated, inadequate, and over¬crowded. To this we may add many s others, but it is useless to make c pleas. Action is the only remedy. ADVISORS OF ACTIVITIES C Few students appreciate the num- p ber of teachers who are vitally in- c terested in some phase of extra cur- i ricular work. Not many high schools q have so many faculty members who (Si give as much time, extra time we may add, to the welfare of the stu¬dents' activities. There are about 15 teachers acting as advisors of 1 clubs. There are two advisors of clu the respective classes, two advising wh 1 council, and others acting as ad- visors on committees and social or- 1 ganizations. It is a fine thing that wji 1 O. H. S. has a faculty which is so ] " eager to co-operate with the stu- ed 3 dents and to help them in their nu 5 drive for bigger and better school b activities. Thanks, teachers, your th work is much appreciated. we 1 CHATTER AND CHAFF " Beth Peck is back to school.

The contest will begin Friday, March 7. The English class has been divid¬ed into rows, and each row has a number. Every other Friday, one row will give a program. Since there are five rows, there will be 10 weeks of competition. At the end of the 10 weeks the class will vote on which row gives the most interesting program, the winning row receiving a prize. The chairmen of the various di- 1 visions are: Jeanness Wright, George Thatcher, Andrew Brunetti, ( Paul Edson and Norma Dana. : AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Aunt Jane: When will the ' student body be notified who is , queen?

Last year there were s seven as two maids tied. After the . first ballot there will be seven can- tf didates, a second ballot eliminates t all but two. the one receiving the 1 most votes is queen, the other is j a maid of honor.
