The roll was called, the minutes were read and approved. It was moved and seconded that all proxies be rejected unless a rea¬sonable excuse is presented. The motion was passed. By a motion the social committee report was accepted. The report concerned the Thanksgiving dance. Mr. Aadneson reported for a new school club, which will be known as "Rhythm Ramblers Typing club." This club is now recognized by Council. Meeting then adjourned. —Earl Reeve, secretary. ANOTHER SAD DEATH Again Ogden High loses through death another beloved son, Walker Low, '31, who passed away on Wed¬nesday morning. Walker was one of those quiet, reserved, stalwart fel¬lows who won his way into the hearts of all acquaintances. During his first year at High school, Wal¬ker demonstrated that he had a rich baritone voice of very exceptional quality and promise. From that day until graduation day Walker was in great demand as soloist, as member of quartets and glee clubs, and thus endeared himself not only to stu¬dents of the school but thousands of others who heard him on many occasions. He took the leading part in two operas, was soloist at com¬mencement, and won first place in the state contest last spring. Be¬sides he was an excellent pianist, and, in fact, a young musician with a most promising future. In ad¬dition to his talent he was a good student and a boy of very fine char¬acter. What seems saddest of all he was an only child, the idol of happy father and mother, who gloried Jn his achievements and his bright prospects in life. To these parents We extend the sincere sym¬pathy of all students who had the pleasure of knowing, Walker. A. D. M. CLUB " and the feather beds roll over on the floor and you awake shivering to find the menacing evil of double pneumonia hanging grin¬ning over your poor head." Thank you Mr. Taggart. Now we'll know what to take with us on our future trip around the world—and to France in particular. Two quilts,! four blankets, and plenty of sheets should be adequate. Did I hear a faint echo—"customs officials?" They'll welcome you. And your bag¬gage—maybe.. But just wiggle a wicked eye and—poof. It's so sim-ple. "Speak for yerself Jon Alden!" next delighted our attentive ears. Miss Carma Allen may be a brunet but she surely can giev a good imi¬tation of a naturalized Swede. You never can tell! "Once a month we could hold our [business meetings at one of our homes with a little social after-wards. I think it would be very nice, but that's just a suggestion," ! deprecated Miss Ellen Halgren. "Which days?" "Where?" "I can't come," rose loudest above the brief clamor. "On Fridays, then, if Council permits." "Well—yes." It doesn't take long for order to be restored with Parliamentarian Halgren wielding a commanding contralto. "Cuffs are cutest." "Oh, I think binding is better." "We must have them all alike and a hem looks nicest anyway," come the voice of authority. And a hem it is. Sounds like a dressmaking estab¬lishment and too much conversa¬tion? Well, we've got to be uni¬form, you know, and if club meet¬ings aren't mostly conversations, what are they? With apologies to Mr. Wood I will announce in the same old way: Neoma Teuscher was elected presi-dent of A. D. M.; Kathleen Laurie, vice president; Louise Allen, secre¬tary, and Marjorie Wood, reporter. REMARKS IN GENERAL As I can see there is only one thing wrong with holidays, and that is that it takes nearly all of the following school week to get that Frigidaire atmosphere out of the building. Even with these low tem-peratures the number of radiator ro¬mances doesn't seem to increase. This is a situation that should at-tract the attention of both psycholo¬gists and automatic-stoker sales - men. Here is the actual low down on the mathematics department as quoted from one of the teachers: "What these students don't know about mathematics would fill many volumes." , , , Sisters can truly be a big help; they can tell you all of your secrets that you have forgotten. They have a system that makes Sherlock Holmes look childish, but it may be that this is just some of that in¬tuition we have heard so much about—James Gibson. THE TROPHY CASE Ah, the trophy case! It is about the only thing in this building, be¬sides the rosy cheeked young pupils and the dignified and intellectual appearing teachers, which shows of what this school is made. When you stand before the case, gazing at its wonders, the image of our "much in need of a new" school fades into the background. You see the trim R. O. T. C. companies striving val¬iantly for awards to grace the case, The grim faced football and basket¬ball boys are next visualized as they fight for the honors of the school. You leave it feeling proud as a pea¬cock. This trophy case is indeed a ray of sunshine, isn't it?—Bobbie Kimball SCHOOL GIVES FINE PROGRAM Members of the Ogden Kiwanis club met with students of the Ogden High school, today at noon at thi invitation of A. M. Merrill, principal, and were treated to one of thi finest programs heard this year. Dinner was served by the domes tic science department in the school cafeteria, after which the member occupied a special section of seat; in the school auditorium. Miss Elaine Evans gave a resumf of the achievements of the school ii the past ten years and included rea ords of some of the outstanding students. Clyde Bassett talked on the neec of a new high school and pointec out deficiencies of the present build' ing, which is overcrowded. Under the direction of Glenn E Hansen, instructor of the depart' ment of music, and Mark Robinson supervisor ot music in the Ogdex City schools, excellent musical num¬bers were presented. Next Thursday the club will b( guests of the Future Farmers of America at the Weber County High school. Dec. 4, 1931 O.H.S.

Russ Stone as one who really knows the "fair sex." MaLou Dobbs and can she man¬age her French accents! Ivan Neilson as the mysterious musician who killed himself for a ! woman. Nice going, Ivan! Your past will find you out. —J. F. AN IDEA It has been suggested that we do something for our fathers. What to do! What to do! At last here is an idea. As you all know, we had a moth¬ers' tea, so why can't we have a fathers coffee. The fathers feel slighted because they are never en¬tertained here at school. Why don't the girls' association entertain them—or let the boys en¬tertain them and serve them as the girls did mothers. This idea was submitted by 's father. —Sarah Ganie Maisfield. SPORTSMANSHIP It is the duty of every individual to preserve the rights and standards which the library holds. It is in- , deed selfish to cause confusion, ' thus annoying those around. Al- though an individual may have j nothing to occupy himself with he (should respect the other person by remaining as quiet as possible. The 1 library is not an individual affair, but a community affair. It is just , what the students make it. Why not have it a quiet, pleasant room for studying and reading? The or- 1 der has been exceptionally fine this year, but there is always room for improvement. —Fay Cardon. WHAT IS IT? You may have often wondered Just what sort of tonic a student needs to make him perk up and study a bit. In the opinion of most of us, "there ain't no such animal," but as a fact there really does exist such a creation. The sad part of the story is—it lasts but a week—every sixth week. This last week vou may - have noticed students reciting and having their hands in the air during recitation, where formerly they were every place but. Sometimes a stu¬dent raises his hand and is called upon to answer, but he only stam- mers some incoherent muttering or |
