Show TWO RETAINED AS CANDIDATES FOR EACH POST Vote With Care, Advice Given In Student Body Election OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen, Associate Editor. The annual student body election drew one step nearer its close on Tuesday as Don Dee Olson and Adam Bengoechea were retained by the student body to run against each other in the finals for the presidency. Helen Abbott and Beverly Betts are the two girls who remain in the contest for the vice presidency. The office of secretary will be fill¬ed by either Lamar Briggs or Jo¬sephine Stone. Students, you have chosen wise¬ly. You must remember, however, that some people make fine stu¬dents and poor executives. There¬fore, before you vote in the final election, carefully consider each candidate in the light of his or her qualifications to hold the office for which he is running. The success of your next school year depends largely on your student body of¬ficers. Choose carefully. JUNIOR PROM SOON A week Friday, on May 9, in the Berthana ballroom, Ogden High school's gala junior prom will be held. Students, to attend this eventful dance will be one of your very last chances to mingle with a great number of high school asso¬ciates and acquaintances. The jun¬ior prom is one of the gayest and most beautiful social affairs of the whole season; don't miss the oppor¬tunity to spend an extremely enjoy¬able evening. Prices for admission will be 40 cents a couple and 75 cents for all those students without partners. Don't come stag. CHANGED TIME Because there has been a slight change in schedules on KLO for Thursday evenings, "Tiger Flashes" has changed its time from seven- thirty to eight forty-five. This weekly high school program is broadcast to present the talent within the portals of Ogden High school. Listen in students, to your friends. COMMON FOLK There's something 'bout the com mon folk Who aren't too proud to greet The humblest man they're like to pass Each day way down the street. Much sweeter tastes the bread they earn In honest sweat and strife. For there is beauty everywhere In common things of life. —Elizabeth Parkinson. VOTE FOR DON DEE At this time each year the ques¬tion of good and bad qualities in student body candidates is care-fully weighed. We are now comparing the talents of Adam and Don Dee. Both can¬didates are fine fellows and won¬derful students. But, students, we must go even further into the quali¬fications of each. Adam distinguished himself as the captain of the basketball team. Don Dee has made a name as a debater and as a member of the yearbook staff. But what of executive ability? Which of the two possesses this necessary requisite? Don Dee undoubtedly has the ability to speak, to express himself in public, and to meet and con-verse with people other than stu¬dents. We must have a student body president who has these qualities. Because of his ability to express himself, because of his likeability, and because of his intelligence, Don Dee Olsen is the only possible can¬didate for student body president. VOTE FOR JOSEPHINE Capability is an essential qual¬ity in any student body officer. No candidate is more capable to hold office than Josephine Stone. Having been student body secre¬tary at North Junior, she knows the ropes, and will, if elected step right into the shoes vacated by our hon¬orable Mr. Larsen. Josie is an "A" student, a cham¬pion speller and certainly not least, a charming, lovely girl whose loy-alty to Ogden has been shown by her support of all Tiger activities. Students, we beseech you, vote for the person who boosts Ogden. Vote for Josephine. — Dorothy West. REGISTRATION Now is the time for all students in the junior class of high school to think seriously and earnestly about the work they expect to take up next year. They should have by this time a fairly definite idea of the courses of instruction offered, of the teach¬ers under whom they should like to register, and their object of gain¬ing a high school diploma. Within the next few days all stu¬dents will be expected to register and we sincerely hope they will be prepared to register in a manner that will be entirely satisfactory for next year's work. THE SIX PERIOD DAY Ogden High school has decided to adopt the policy of practically all high schools throughout the coun¬try of having a six period day in¬stead of a seven period day next year. This will be particularly helpful, it is thought at Ogden High school, as it will avoid congestion in study halls that makes the present ar¬rangement, of seven periods un¬satisfactory. It will correct also a tendency on the part of a few pupils to register for more work than they can successfully carry. Four majors and a minor are considered a satisfactory school pro¬gram; in case the student takes three majors and two minors he still will have one period for study. A very exceptional student perhaps may take four majors and two mi¬nors. The six period day gives students ample opportunity to select the work that he wishes and enables him to make a success in high school. In registering it will be well for students to keep this arrangement in mind. YEAR OF GREAT ACTIVITY WILL SOON BE ENDED May 23, 1935 Seniors and Juniors Have Many Things To Turn Over In Minds OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen. Associate Editor. Only four more days of school! The season of 1934-35 for Ogden High school will soon be over, stu-dents, only to be recalled in mem¬ory As we look over the past nine months, how many incidents have occurred—the opera, the school play, the Classicalia, the junior prom, the Accolade, the Thanksgiving dance, the successful football season, the basketball season, Print Dress week, the S. A. R. contest, the Lewis con¬test, and innumerable other activ¬ities which could hardly be men¬tioned here. And tomorrow every¬one will receive his yearbook. To look over such a wonderful school year is enjoyable. The seniors always will have pleasant thoughts engraved upon their memory of their last high school year; the juniors only have that much more to look forward to. TO RECEIVE YEARBOOKS On Friday afternoon everyone will receive a yearbook, edited by Ruth LaVin Cragun, provided the amount due has been paid in full. Our Classicum promises to be one of the very best ever published. Students, get your yearbooks now! LAST RADIO PROGRAM Tonight over KLO from seven un¬til seven-thirty Ogden High school will have its last radio program of the school year. This enterprise of broadcasting has been the first of its kind since the founding of Og¬den High school; it is hoped by the Notes editors that "Tiger Flashes" will be carried on in the years to come. The public is cordially invited to tune in to "Tiger Flashes" this eve¬ning. We're sure you'll enjoy it. GRADUATE TO BE RABBI Philip Finkelstein, 29, an erstwhile debater and orator of Ogden High school, will have the degree of rabbi conferred upon him by the Hebrew Union college, Cincinnati, May 25. We extend our hearty congratula¬tions, Rabbi Finkelstein. You were always a great student; you will be great as Rabbi Finkelstein. NOTHING TO TALK ABOUT Now that we are to have a new high school, we wonder what we shall find to fill this column. Ever since "Notes" were begun in The Standard-Examiner, an appeal for a new high school has always been regarded as pertinent and timely. What shall we find to take its place? Maybe for a little we can rave ap¬propriately about the grand and glorious features of our new school building. HISTORY OF SCHOOL For some months, a complete his¬tory of Ogden High school has been in course of preparation by mem¬bers of Amor Scribendi, writers' club at the school. The book was typed, bound, with illustrations, charts, maps, etc., and entered for competition in the national tercen¬tenary celebration contest in New York, commemorating the three hundredth anniversary of the first American free public high school, the Boston Latin school, founded in 1635. High schools throughout the country have entered their histories in this competition. On May 13 the club was encour¬aged by receipt of a letter from Marc Rosemblum, chairman of the judging committee, asking "permis¬sion to hold this splendid history for a period of a year in order to include it within a traveling ex¬hibit." The club announces that one copy of the book will be placed in the Carnegie library and one in Ogden High school library. Members of the club are Dick Bailey, Iona Langford, Iola Langford, Barbara Blackman, Frona Glines, Rose Yoshioko, Jack Richards, and Parley Jensen. COMMENCEMENT To mark the closing days of school, the following calendar of events is announced: Friday, May 24, one p. m.—Award assembly; two p. m., mothers' tea; eight p. m., fashion show.
