Practice Begun By Singing Club Officers Are Elected, With Prospects of Excellent Season OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette, Editor Jack Bennett, Associate Editor. The Girls' Glee club wishes to announce that it has taken care of all preliminaries and is starting out , to make this one of the most suecessful years ever known at Ogden High. By taking care of preliminaries we mean that along with other things we have elected officers. Last Friday, after the nomination of many capable members, the girls chqge Ruth LaVin Cragun as their presi¬dent, Marian Holbrook as vice pres¬ident, and Margaret Paine as li¬brarian. The chorus under the able direc¬tion of Mr. Hanson, has already be¬gun practice of some beautiful songs and hopes to have them ready for production before long. The ma- pority of the chorus is made of stu¬dents who. were outstanding in the musical line in junior high. It is reasonable, then, to believe that' with everyone pulling together this will become a never to be forgotten year for the glee chorus. PLAN OPPOSED In answer to the boy who put in an article in favor of police in our halls, we might say that a person always speaks about the subject on his mind and that the police seem to have gotten him. I Our school has regenerated to the ranks of grade school even to the extent of assigning us teachers and so we certainly don't want monitors to oversee our every move. At the first of this year our school president made known his hope that we might do away with the De Quorum committee and now some¬one with a guilty conscience wants to form an additional police sys-tem.—O. V. CALL FOR ACTION If you were listening to the an¬nouncement Tuesday, as you should have been, you would have heard something which, if taken heed of, will be of great help to the editors of the Ogden High school notes. Please take heed of this! Write something that will be interesting to everyone. A nice, spicy bit of gossip is all right once in a while but when something rather obscure happens and is written about, it does not hold interest for the en¬tire student body. We want to set a high standard for the notes this year, but this will be impossible unless we have the whole hearted support and co-opera¬tion of the entire student body. Come on, students, write reports on your classes, or any interesting thing which happens, but don't bother too much about scandal gossip. You all know where the note box is, so write, darn ya write!—Mary Pa¬quette. ATHLETES EXAMINED Drs. E. P. Mills and Roscoe Dra¬per gave our school athletes a thorough physical examination on Tuesday morning. Generally speak¬ing they found the boys in pretty good condition, but there were sev¬eral instances where the boys are suffering and will suffer more for lack of dental care. The doctors were a bit perturbed to learn that the teeth of school children receive so little attention Ways and means should be provided to take care of the physical being of students, future citizerul as well as their mental. GAMES COMING On Saturday of this week we playl a practice game with one of thel Salt Lake City high school teams. A week from Friday, October 6, we meet Bear River at Ogden in thel first league game of the season. Then follows, of course, the Weber-Honolulu game on October 7, that we are all supposed to see. STUDENTS ENTHUSED According to report, a 20 year dingering, dying hope for a new high school is reviving and we are actually oeginning to feel again that a new high school is possible. Ohr boy! Wouldn't it be glorious to have a new building with a real as¬sembly hall, a real gymnasium, and showers, R.O.T.C. rooms, labora-tories, a cafeteria, science rooms, etc. Let's hope for the best, even though we may die in despair. A RIFLE RANGE A strenuous effort is being made to provide some sort of shooting gallery for our rifle squad. The lat¬est report is that a part of the school garage will be set aside as a shooting gallery for the present year. One of the advantages that this will offer, at least, is that the range will be warm. How those boys will shoot when once they get into a warm room. ART EXHIBIT What's this George Larkin, Mor- ry Kennedy, and Harold Brubidge are hanging in the art room? No! No' It is only their pictures being displayed by Clyde Chambers, one of high school's talented post grad¬uate artists. Come on it and see foi yourself! You'll get a,n eyeful, foi these splendid drawings are surelj worth seeing.—A. H. WANTED—A STRING BASS The high school orchestra is ve*j badly in need of a few instrument.5 to build up its instrumentation. To¬day the most important need is Jt string bass. If anyone knows when we can locate one, please notify Mr Sanson, music director, immediate¬ly. SEPTEMBER 28, 1933. THURSDAY EVENING. Indian Summer Found Ideal Time To Start New Months of Study Nature's Gifts Heighten ; Students' Hopes For Successful Year OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette, Editor Jack Bennett, Associate Editor. Fall is here. Loneliness lingers everywhere over Earth's playground as Indian summer's brown, red, and golden tints brilliantly color the vast landscape around us, and cool, re¬freshing breezes continually blow. Brown leaves, red leaves, bloom in family gardens; and brown, leafy shrubbery, and golden grass strik¬ingly beautify the rugged moun¬tains.. Deep, blue skies stretching from clear-cut rims of purple rock to wide horizons blend perfectly with the ripened hues beneath its dome. Then, when the gorgeous sun¬set illuminates the bright fall scen¬ery, nature is indeed in her glory. What could be a more appropriate time to start our school year than in the Indian summer? For our hopes are high and our expectations are great, while We look forward to a successful year, socially and; scholastically. The colorfulness of autumn makes a perfect setting for the realization of our dreams, and; corresponds to the beginning of a colorful school year.—Emily Merrill. SEARCH ATTICS Have any of you ambitious stu¬dents ever gone into your grand¬mother's attic and found strange: devices such as spinning wheels, rusty swords, old fashioned dresses,; or maybe you came across some; musical instruments. At one time practically every home owned some kind of an instrument. If you would i I only look in your attics and try to find a string bass, or inquire of! "people around you as to whether I they know anything about one. I'm Isure you would be successful! Let us all try, maybe we can bring lone of these old relics back to life. —Dean Crandall TO THE FACULTY Why doesn't one of the faculty help form a pep club to encourage school activity? This club could save private benches at games until the game starts. This would unite some oi the pep of the graduates from the junior high schools. Don't be like some of the stu¬dents. Just because they get by, they don't do anything extra. Come on! Let's have some school spirit from the faculty.—Heap Big Chief. BON VOYAGE Charles Murphy, that well known red-haired heart breaker, is going into bigger and deeper waters. He is now an ex-cowboy, having been on a ranch all summer, but is going to be a big tough gob or somethin'. Murphy has joined the navy from which he can get an appointment to Annapolis. After serving nine months at sea. The navy has every opportunity for success for anyone who is willing to work. He has passed his physical and psychological tests with high honors, which is a good start to success. Ogden High school wishes to take this opportunity to wish him all the luck in the world in his future life. We also extend a hearty invitation to him to visit his old school when he comes back home. So bon voyage. P. S. Instead of writing to an old "cowpoke," B. B. will have to write to a "water soaked gob." CLUB ANNOUNCEMENT Ruth Goddard, president of the newly organized Allfanny club, wishes to announce that more mem-bers are going to be admitted to the club. All those eligible to join, will please hand their names and full- length pictures to the president or Bob Buswell, club organizer.—-Fred Nickson, reporter.
