CONFESSION fceet Rejectful Editor: Please reject the following confession or diary. Upon arising yesterday morning I iiund my mind to be very greatly fisturbed. But for my arriving at tin on time, the morning held noth- te: unusual. The fifth period found my mind M very much confused, as I have been suffering from a very severe .Hack of Accolitis. As the fifth period bell started me milling through our crowded ancient halls, however, I experienced a doubling ap on the heart beats. I felt a slight jjndding at my back and a meek feminine voice quivered, "Oh, Unk." I pivoted slowly with a melting smile beaming from my counten- itce for I believed that my weeks o( suffering, loss of sleep and pour.dace had not been in vain. In } 8 fleeting seconds before she made herself clear I was an exaggerated taase of youthiul expectancy. "Do you know tomorrow's assign- Bent for English?" she questioned innocently. Aw nerts! Why does miserable I fte have to single me out.—Yours Bhgeslr, Unk Sharon. Jan. 21, 1932 O.H.S.

After much jHPnd many flowery speeches,} ilPl.ytftlng and discriminating, were selected: President Bill Alsup; vice president, Bob Junk secretary, Curtiss Bybee; and reporter Ralph Berrett. 1 Then with much palavering it was si decided that Don Banks would be e taken in as the newest member of [. our illustrious club. No further business appearing we departed without y more ado. RALPH BERRETT. DRAMATIC ART Owen Croxford has been proposed to. That's something to gossip about, but here's something even better. The person who is taking ad¬vantage of the proverbial leap year is none other than our bashful Miss Hermoine Tracey. If you don't be- lieve this just ask any of the dramatic art club members to confirm tt my statement. Lucy McNeil will swear to it, as she was peeking through the keyhole. d A delightful one-act play was read e by Mrs. Kapple, and the Misses Arleen Sessions and Eleanor Umber h gave two duets.

LAST MINUTE WARNINGS e We know it is a little late to it remind you of the big dance to- night, but we would like to see ev- d1 ery girl at the Berthana. If by o chance you haven't your date yet, .-! maybe if you call the big moment he will consent to go even at this ! late minute. j And if you can possibly manage l it before the dance, the team would appreciate your support at the game, rt jit will start promptly at eight o'clock at the Weber High. We'll ' be seeing you at one, and we hone, p both, of these affairs. Remember, though, no tickets sold at the door. f Call Mrs. Irwin or one of the ticket committee, if S SPECIAL ASSEMBLY 4, To the surprise of all the students , of good old Ogden High, a special " assembly was called at two o'clock Thursday. Dr. Elbert H. Thomas gave a very interesting talk to the assembly. He told of George Wash¬ington, the father of our country, his life, his characteristics, and the [ aid he gave to us. The students en-1 r joyed this assembly immensely and; hope to hear from men who have rj as much in store for us as did Dr. Thomas. ADVISORY TEACHERS Students do not seem to under- I stand the importance of advisory ! ! teachers. When you are in doubt or in trouble, their duty is to advise you and help you overcome your difficulties. Consult your advisory teachers; they will be very happy to assist, you. CHATTER AND CHAFF Ann Pingree says that when the gentlemen bother her, all she has to do is Russel-a-Stone. Deirdre wants to know why Jack Tyrees her so. I wonder why Marion is so nippy. Perhaps it is because her name is Cheese-man. We are wondering if Dale will consider wearing a Dobbs hat. When some vie asks Bob Rushmer what he has been doing lately, he j will say "Oh Shaw." Martha McGregor admits she is an all-around student. There are always a few things Cleone Walker can count on, and those are her fingers. AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Aunt Jane: Why doesn't our faculty put on a play? The faculties of other schools put on plays which are enjoyed not only by the students but by many people who otherwise would have nothing to do with the school. Why doesn't our faculty do this? I am 1 sure ours could do so much better than others that they would be l much more widely known. —A Senior. Dear Senior: Why don't you consult the faculty members and arouse enthusiasm. —Aunt Jane. Dear Aunt Jane: Will there by any boys' specials at the Accolade? And by the way, who is Little Edgar? —Anxious and Curious. Dear Anxious and Curious: The dance is for the boys, what could they ask. Little Edgar- three guesses—the first two don't count. —Aunt Jane. ALPHA OMEGA If you saw any pale, sick-looking, nervous wrecks in the hall today you will have to excuse their appearance, for the "worms" have turned. Maybe you can't understand this but we will explain everything. They were at our initiation last night. We are now a full-fledged club of fifty members, who became honorary members simply because of their scholastic standing and typewriting ability. The membership of our club is unlimited and anyone who is willing to work and is desirous of becoming a member will be made such. We have just started, but watch our dust. —Dell Tower, Reporter.

The Red and Black athletes were pressed in the first half, but outclassed Ogden in all departments of play in the final periods. Weber led at the end of the first period 6 to 4 and held 13 to 11 ad¬vantage at the close of the half. The Mark Ballif five spurted in the third period to obtain a tremendous lead. At the close of the quarter Weber led 25 to 14. Ogden turned in her best brand of ball in the final period of play, but lacked the punch to overcome the big lead obtained by the Warriors.
