Show SPIRIT OF THE CLUBS On Wednesday after school, a ca ! meeting was called for the club t0 members in order that some spirit ai: of boosting might be instilled into them. It isn't necessary to do that. The clubs are for the. school j 100 per cent. They believe in action more than words. This was evi- , denced by the almost total club fr membership turning out and show- [ ing that they meant for Classicalias and any other school activities to go r over and that they would do every- Pr thing in their power to effect a sue- w cess, financially and socially. If you have any doubt as to the good of the clubs, students, erase them from I your minds. The clubs do things. \ They are a peppy bunch and are here to prove that their organiza¬tions are more than mere figure¬heads. AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Aunt Jane: I would like to know if parents are admitted free to the Classicalia? A There is some talk about the fact that everyone having to pay and that parents are no exception. I hardly agree, and think that the patrons should as usual be admitted free of charge. Senior. Dear Senior: Parents are not admitted free to _ the Classicalia and any free list is suspended during this dance. There 11 is an old adage that money talks. This must be made true at the Clas- 0 sicalia and in order that it will be p a financial success as well as a q social it must have a financial back- f, ing. No other dance has the object t] of raising funds as has this dance. r No other party is more of an obli- p: gation to the student body. There- t) fore we must make every possible p dollar that we can. Parents are a urged to attend and are certainly n assured a good time if they attend d but we must charge in order that [ t] the year book will not leave a defi- p cit. Don't take the attitude that the Classicalia is one grand scheme to d fleece you of your money. It is not. a i Merely are we attempting to face o ! our debts in the most efficient man- ner possible. Aunt Jane. i] THE TENNIS COURTS? Some say we shall. Some say we t: shall not. As it stands now odds si are about even. Council and one or v two of the clubs are pushing the thing as far as possible and maybe we shall get them this year. It seems that the necessary require- u ments are twenty-four feet of wire d half way around and an entire en- c closure about the present height. A 11 door with a padlock must be pro- 8 vided. This at the cheapest may be done quite reasonably and will not run over a hundred and seventy-five dollars at the most. This, of course, c does not include any fancy trim- Q mings or steel poles. It must be cs done with the strictest economy. A committee from council is making every endeavor to effect a fixing of 1( the courts in the immediate future. If they succeed we play; if they d don't, we don't play. D. A. C. s Yes, they got it!—Mildred Drake, f, George Thatcher and Elmer Broome. Have you noticed the long drawn c look on their faces? Well, let it be v said of them that they had the nec- v essary courage and fortitude to back _ all ill winds. They have proved t their mettle and the Dramatic Art r club, recognizing this, has accepted „ them. The student body will, no f doubt, immediately hear from these t students. d In behalf of our work we shall f continue to present our brief epi- j sodes in assembly, and with permis- Y sion of the student body and coun- g cil shall develop an amusing serial fj play. To do this along with other e things we hope that our past shall a be done in making those school days t dear, so that we may look back upon the past years as a source of happy thought and inspiration. Adios. ! P. S.—Next time we'll interview j, one of the members of D. M. C. Foss Heiner will go under the microscope j for scrutiny. CARPE DIEM t Folks, here's a little inside dope i on the snappiest club in O. H. S. i Last Wednesday we "tripped (?) the 1 light fantastic" on roller skates— ] this meeting we are going to "shoot 1 our stuff"—look out for stray ar- ] rows! We're a club that's bootsing the Classicalia. \ .'hy not—we're 1 proud to say that the queen, maid! 1 of honor and three maids came froml Carpe Diem and that's no small amount! Come on, students and friends, I let's make the home coming Classicalia the biggest success in the his-tory of the school. Wear costumes and be festive—we'll help if you will! j —Reporter, Maxine Fox. c THREE HUNDRED GRADUATES The graduating committee which 1 has been looking over eligible mate- c rial for graduation reports that it I looks at the present time as if the 1 graduating class will consist of ap- proximately three hundred and [twenty members. 1 CLASSICALIA IS FEATURE EVENT OF PAST WEEK March 30, 1930 Miss Eleanor Stevens Is Crowned Queen At Annual Social ; The Ogden High school Classicalia which was held in the Berthana on Friday night, was one of the most : Interesting school events of the year. The Classicalia is an annual affair of the Ogden High school and is presided over by a popularly elected queen. Each year the competition for the queenship is very keen and the results of the final ballot are not revealed until the queen and her procession enter the ballroom. Since the following of the two highest as¬pirants—Miss Charlene Scowcroft and Miss Eleanor Stevens—was so nearly equal, it would have been difficult to foretell the results, and f the onlookers were tensed with ex¬pectancy as the pageant began. A blare of trumpets! Sharp or- 1 ders from the commanding officer! And the Cossacks, the finest soldiers of Russia, immaculate in their red, white and gold uniforms, marched into the court. Then, amid terrific applause, the queen entered. Seldom could a queen be found more beau- i tiful than Miss Eleanor Stevens, as ; she appeared attired in a gorgeous white satin gown which enhanced her own loveliness. Her majesty was attended by four petite pages, ; who supported the golden canopy . under which she walked. A short distance behind the royal canopy . came Miss Charlene Scowcroft, the i. maid of honor, in a most becoming . gown of gold taffeta. Next appear- ed a benevolent priest, Horace Nebeker. and little Miss Mary Hopkins, who carried the sparkling j r crown to grace the head of the queen. Then came the six popular 5 candidates for queen, superbly gown- ed in the deep shades of velvet that , indicated their royal lineage. Fol- ! lowing these came the ladies of the court with their officers; and imme- diately after four extravagant ladies of the court in much be-rtbboned and be-ruffled creations of the de- ; signer's art. A huge bear was next seen drawing a luxurious white sled : in which an exotic Russian dancer, Miss Maxine Fox, sat. In sharp p contrast to her dark beauty, which was set off by white satin and fur, Were the 16 attractive ballet dancers who followed in the procession. A ? throng of colorful peasants now , made their appearance with an ap- ; propriate spirit of festivity. That Russia, as well as any other coun- try, has a humorous side, was evi- ,, denced by the appearance of the .u funny family, incongruously dressed. A wandering band of gypsies came next, accompanied by an organ grinder and a diminutive monkey. Two dancing bears with their train- er cleverly completed the procession, and did much to entertain the spec¬ks tators. After marching around the room 01 the Cossacks divided to form an n. aisle for the royal train. The queen ;w j ascended the throne, which was set ,ss j against a background of a Russian Pe mosque with its stately minarets. (Her maid of honor next took her place by the throne, closely followed by the six ladies-in-waiting. The re- ipe mainder of the procession resolved. S. itself into the queen's court. When. ;he the court had assembled, the aged s— priest took the royal crown from its oot bearer and placed it on the head of ar- her majesty. The newly-crowned; ing! queen was then entertained by the 1 ;'re ballet dancers, a Russian solo dance aid! by Miss Maxine Fox and a peasant om folk dance. Those taking part in the pageant were: Maids—'Bernice Hall, Shirley Halverson, Guenivere Hess, Iras Leavitt, Ada Sailor and Beth Story; la¬dies of the court, Marjorie Ander¬son, Beth Peck, Rachael Medoway, Minnie Favera, Elda Skinner, Athleen Budge and Nelda Allen; officers [ of the court, Beecher McConnell,!

Nettie Newman was the violinist and Virginia Sanders was at the s piano. It has been the custom of each L Classicalia in the past to reproduce ; actual scenes from foreign countries 1 —that is, to create scenes such as one would find abroad, and this year ; the Russian motif was cleverly car- ; ried out. Inasmuch as this was the first time that the Classicalia has been made a home-coming event for former graduates, each booth repre¬sented the decorative idea of some former year. There were five booths. A Venetian gondola, sponsored by ; the Zeta Phi Zi and the French club, represented the 1927 idea. A Chinese shop under the direction of the Girls' ! association, carried out the scenes of 1928. The spring idea of 1929 was featured by the "We 13" club. ! This year's Russian idea was su¬pervised by the Hamilton club and the Phi Lambda Tau and comprised ' a snow house with artificial north- ern lights. The cafe, which was dec- orated in Japanese style, was spon¬sored by the I-Wannan-O club. j In such a setting were gathered 1 representatives of every nation on the earth, each participating in the ; joyful carnival spirit. 1 E. S. Smith of the high school faculty was in charge of the Classicalia with Rader Deegan as chairman representing the student body. , . Ogden 20 Years Ago From Our files. The Ogden high school faculty de- feated a picked team of the student , body 15 to 11 on the diamond.
