For years it n has been the exclusive and unde- niable right of boyhood to hurl z. snowballs at the shivering and de- fenseless weaker sex. But the worm t: has turned and the weaker sex have now taken to snowballing the—well, perhaps they are still the stronger sex, though nowadays it is difficult to tell. Not content with picking on boys their size thye have assaulted the boys of Ogden High. Yesterday si the first casualty occurred, with " Willie contracting a severe cold, as P1 a result of snow being thrown down sr his neck, by those young rowdyess- M es. The excuse further stated that w unless something was done, Willie tc would not be allowed to return to hi 'school. But that's the gross unfair- C ness of it, nothing can be done, for dumb as they are, they seem to vi know that we won't wash their tl j faces, even though some need a good ja5 washing, for we can not harm mo- g I ther's little angels, as they are so w small and besides they are girls, w Not only that, but just imagine, !if they are throwing snowballs now, what will they throw at their bet¬ter halves later on. Yes, a remedy c for the situation must be found at vi once. Perhaps Aunt Jane c'an sug- o jgest one.—Sid Gordon. ' ie ai ON LEAP YEAR ji j A man's conception of Leap Year —applied and theoretical: ir The scientific explanation of leap P1 year is that there's something like P six hours left over after ft year is! SI [ put back together. Because it is ! positively unethical to let them d wander off into space, someone away 0 back about the time the high school rn was built decided that it would be a 0i good plan to herd them all together fC and make an extra day out of them every four years. It was found that there was not quite enough to do this every four years and that in time we would find that we were ahead of our¬selves. For that reason it was de¬cided to abandon the leap year at the beginning of every century that can be divided by 400. Myself, I believe that the fellow that con- : cocted this plan must have had lobster the night before, or it might have , been that it was in the days before prohibition and it was payday. ' Whatever his apologies, the fact re- 1 mains that the ancient Egyptians ( did a much better job of it than did this theoretical person. They ' merely solved the problem by having 1 five or six feast days every now and then that were not even on the calendar. . J For some reason, another person equally as mentally deficient as the first thought that it would be a good ' idea to give the girls a break dur- I ing this so-called leap year. Con- i sequently the dear things take mat- 1 ters into their own hands and thei result is a good many eligible bach- t elors are scratched off the list on all years divisible by four. There- fore. look out all you eligible bach¬elors. CI could name several but I won't).—Charles Wood. Jan. 12, 1932 O.H.S.

Mr. Kapple slipped on the gym floor (what do . you bet the oil had something to !do with it?) and hurt his back so much that he has been unable to teach his classes. t Mr. Newman has been teaching Mr. Kapple's classes, and, as he is a former football player, I don't suppose he is having any trouble. He is an Ogden man, a graduate of the high school and the state university. He was formerly em¬ployed by the bureau of public roads. Now for the hard part of the job; we hope Mr. Kapple has a speedy recovery, but we also hope to have Mr. Newman with us for some time. —B. T. GIRLS' BASKETBALL The girls' gym classes, with the! . exception of the seventh period, are : beginning to play basketball. Most of the girls have played some, but' it seems that there are many new rules and regulations which must be learned. They are spending much time practicing the different passes, the many ways of shooting a basket and the finer points of guarding. When these are mastered and combined with the pep the girls ; have stored up, especially for bas¬ketball there will be many excit- ; ing league games. —B. K. ; SMOKELESS SMOKER [ Sometime in the near future a r smokeless smoker will be held in l the school gymnasium. For the ; past few years there have been no l smokers so this one is a rare treat. . Most of the bouts are between boys ; who for some reason have scores i to settle. There are also two bouts , between two boys from Weber County High and our boys. The girls have been especially in- i vited to attend, although in the past they have not been allowed. We , are assured that all who come will get their fill of good boxing and i wrestling. The time, date and price . will be given later. —Fay Cardon. WANTED: SPORT EDITOR That is the cry of the Quarterly ' Classicum staff at present. Our ad- ; vice is that all boys and girls of Ogden High school who are ath¬letically inclined, understand and appreciate an exciting, sportsman- like game, and would enjoy record-' ing the same for one of the school's i publications should enter the com- i petitive try-outs for the position of . sport editor. The only requirements are to pre- 3 pare an account of the Weber-Og- i den basketball game to be played [ on Friday, January 22, and to sub- 1 mit this article to either Mrs. Wade i or Mr. Robins by 4 o'clock on the following Monday. Certainly this most crucial game of our team is enough to inspire any student, and then, who would refuse such a desirable position? RAMBLINGS Although everybody admits hav¬ing a reverent feeling toward our old building, I'll bet that everyone who saw the fire department leave so soon after arriving last Friday was at least just a little disappoint-ed. There wasn't so much as a curl of smoke to make the old relic look any different; than it did the day it was completed, which is far¬ther back in history than anyone's memory should be asked to go. The other morning Louise Peter¬son when passing the gun room was attracted into said room by a loud pounding. When she discovered that it was caused by your's truly hammering some curves out of a few ramrods she looked very disappoint-! ed and exclaimed, "Oh, I thought! you were hitting Art Cartwright on the head." If just an ordinary bathtub was able to show Mr. Maxim how to silence the noise of guns and ex¬hausts, why can't something show someone how to end the racket that lis present in our halls during the noon hour? —Jim Gibson. DIARY OF A DAMSEL .... Freezing Friday— My present excess chilliness tends to dilute the hot memory of warm [Summer afternoons with various brands of shudders; winter flan¬nels entirely hide the healthy rem¬nants of the fine coat of tan I painfully acquired in bygone hours of sunlight exposure. Merely as a memory tester and general exer-cises of that often neglected func¬tion of the human mind, an ancient page of my diary asked me today: Have you forgotten those heated debates with Mother Nature in favor of an occasional shower, the cold shoulder with which you con¬fronted the insolent sun, those frenzied attempts to ward off death by the melting process, the inquir¬ing and pleading glances bestowed upon innocent, passing clouds, and the fervent prayer your parched lips breathed, asking the controll¬ing power either to send a series of refreshing rains or to give you a cool termination to an unbear¬able earthly existence? The genius still remains to be I found who can render life happy and comfortable in the superlative i degree, but I prophesy he will prob¬ably spend his spare time (and also [business hours) chasing industrious ; heat imps, confining them during - the burning months of July and I August, and sending them forth again in January to mingle with : snowflakes, King Winter, Jack Frost and North Wind. —Susie Seventeen.
