Show RIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 29, 1933. Pupils Summoned To Pre-Season Contest Ogden High To Meet South High Saturday At Local Stadium An opportunity is afforded the students of the Ogden High school) to see their football team play a pre-season game. In most cases we never get to see our team play teams that are not members of the Ogden division because most of the pre-season games are played out of Ogden. But now, students, the chance has come. Ogden plays South High of Salt Lake City at the Ogden sta-dium next Saturday at two-thirty o'clock. Admission charge will be your student body ticket or 25 cents. Let's get behind our football team this year, students.—Blaine Larsen. SENIOR MEETING Senior class meeting was held on Wednesday at three-thirty with President Larkin presiding. After many nominations it was finally de¬cided that Mr. Thornley and Mrs. Newcomb would be our class ad¬visors. Speakers for the first two assemblies were elected. These are Jack Quayle, Barbara Reeves, Grant Jensen and Anthony Yarbrough. who volunteered. As these students are reliable and very able orators, our assemblies will undoubtedly be benefifial and inter¬esting, and there will be plenty of competition for the juniors.—Elva Miller. ASSEMBLY Thursday's assembly was called to order by Principal Merrill. The first and second numbers were selections by the orchestra, entitled "Hungarian Dance, No. 6" by Brahms and "Sparkling Crys-tals," composer unannounced. We have a very good orchestra this year and are very proud of it. Mr. Merrill introduced to us Mr. Hazlewood of Salt Lake City who, in turn, introduced Captain Campbell of New York. Captain Campbell had flown from New York to Salt Lake City in his autogiro plane. Captain Campbell gave us a most interesting talk on the way air¬planes were invented and how they were used during different periods. He also told us of many wonderful flights which had taken place and of records which he has made. He then explained briefly the way an airplane flies and answered ques¬tions from the audience. Captain Campbell informed us he would fly over our school sometime between now and October 6. We were very glad to have him as our guest and we hope we shall hear more of him —Merry Vee NOTICE Girls and boys when you go home t this evening look through your clothes and those you don't need give to the needy. There are many boys and girls in Ogden who are unable to attend school because they lack a sufficient amount of clothing to cover their bodies. I am sure almost every one of you will be able to find a pair of last year's shoes, a coat that is too small and other pieces of clothing that will make it possible for another girl or boy to go to school. Saturday morning at eight o'clock Boy Scouts will call for anything that will be of value to the poor if you will leave it on your porch. Help Ogden and help your school. —Eleanore Eccles. BIG ENROLLMENT According to a report issued by the office Monday we have 523 girls and 477 boys in attendance. As we figure that means exactly 1000. As the building accommodates 700 nicely it would appear that we have fully reached our quota. O yes, we need a new high school. DISAPPOINTMENT The few students who knew that O.H.S. broadcast over KLO at eleven-fifteen Wednesday, were dis-appointed that the message was not relayed through our radio system to every class room. This was an over¬sight at the office occasioned by Mr. Merrill being away at a prin¬cipal's meeting at that hour. A GOOD START At faculty meeting Monday the teachers reported unanimously that they have made an excellent begin¬ning of the year's work. Classes are all large and students seem to be interested. Note, We'd better be interested, for with the assignments teachers are making we should be obliged to be interested or dreadfully bored. A HANDY GIRL Students visiting the office are delighted to meet a new face, a very pretty one at that, belonging to an alumna of the school who has been engaged by the board of education to help keep office re¬ports, records, etc., up to the min¬ute. This young lady is said to be very handy, and indeed she'd better be for her surname is "Handy." INTERESTING TALKS A. L. Christiansen, county agricultural agent visited the zoology classes Wednesday and gave very interesting talks on local insects, bugs, / etc. He explained also the dread- s ful malady that has attacked Weber county horses occasioning losses s of about $1000 per day to Weber county farmers.

SUNDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 1, 1933 TIGERS TAKE GAME FROM SOUTH HIGH Kennedy Sparkles in Col¬orful Contest At Local Stadium BY REX GREAVES Coach Ernie Simkins' 1933 Ogden; High Tiger eleven looked promising in its 12-0 triumph over a heavier Salt Lake City South High aggre¬gation in a pre-season contest at the Ogden stadium Saturday afternoon With three regulars on the sick and injured list, the fighting Tigers got going in the second quarter and unleashed a neat assortment of plays which furnished some nice entertainment for an audience of about 1000 persons. Maurice Kennedy, who alternated at quarterback and halfback for the Orange and Black, was outstanding in a classy Ogden backfield which produced an even half dozen sec¬ondary stars. Kennedy's playing recalled the days of his brother Dan, a decade ago, when Dan was an all-state triple threat performer for the O. H. S. Maurry reeled off two long runs of 58 and 37 yars and numer¬ous shorter gains. He did most of the line plunging, scoring Ogden's second touchdown in the third quarter after a beautiful pass from; Clyde Greenwell to Ernie Sanders had counted the first score in the second quarter. Kennedy backed up the line well on defense and aver ased 50 yards on his punts. Although the spotlight centered on Kennedy, he was not alone in a well balanced Ogden backfield. Clyde Greenwell gave a splendid exhibition of forward passing and looms as one of the finest passers ever turned out in prep competition in the state. Greenwell's first fling of the game was good for a touch¬down as it shot 30 yards like a bullet to Sanders who raced an addi¬tional 30 yards for a touchdown early in the second quarter. Whit¬taker, halfback, took out the only man in Sanders way on this play Greenwell's placekiclc for extra point was squarely between the uprights, but was disallowed by the "dead ball" rule, inasmuch as Whittaker was on his knees in holding the ball in placement position. Greenwell's passes for the most part were well directed and the kind the receiver likes to handle. Two passes to "Hod" Burbidge who replaced Whit¬taker were each good for 25 yards. A good part of the Ogden defense is bound to be built on Greenwell's passing ability. Burbidge and Whittaker showed plenty of speed in their ball carry¬ing chances, while Gene Wayment, giant blocking half, carried out his assignment in consistent fashion. Playing a defensive half Wayment spoiled practically ever pass the South High eleven attempted. The other Ogden backfield per¬former to see service was Merl Woodland, a hard driving plunger whom it will be hard to deny a starting berth in the future. Johnny Pignataro, Betteridge, and Herb Habbeshaw were the offensive ' threats for Bob Davis' South High Cubs. Pignataro got away to nu¬merous side stepping gains and was always dangerous whenever he got his hands on the ball. Habbeshaw's capers were much on the order of Pignataro's, while Beteridge was a powerful plunger. Max Wilkins and Bob Halliday, -huge South tackles, looked good in diverting many of the Ogden off-tackle thrusts. Wilkins also matched Kennedy in the kicking department. The Salt Lakers missed two ex¬cellent opportunities to score. After an exchange of punts in the opening quarter, the South gridders advanced the ball from past midfield to within a few yards of the Ogden goal where the Tiger line braced and forced Pignataro to try a lateral. Johnny circled left end with a clear field only to be nailed on fourth down by Green- well coming up fast to make the tackle. A fumble in the third quarter gave the Blue and White team the ball on the Ogden ten yard- stripe. The South club, however, returned the compliment by fumbling on their first down. Davis used his reserves the final quarter. Kennedy started Ogden on its way to the second touchdown with a 37 yard twister around right end be¬fore being run out of bounds on South's 39 mark by Day and Halli¬day. Kennedy and Burbidge ad-vanced the ball to the 30 yard line and on last down with a yard to go, Burbidge, now calling signals, took a 20 yard pass from Green- well to the 10 yard line. A plunge by Kennedy, a drive by Burbidge, and another plunge by Kennedy counted the other six points. Green¬well's attempted placement was turned into a run, when a bad pass! from Seal, center who was shaken up on the touchdown play, did noli give Burbidge time to settle the ball. Burbidge tossed the ball back! to Greenwell who managed toj squirm within a few inches of the goal. The Orange and Black line made; a game fight of it with their heavier opponents. Piersanti, Herscovitz and Call did some nice tackling, while the lanky junior ends Sanders and Revell, also came in for their share of the honors. In Sanders, Revell, Seal and Bar¬ker, Simkins has a quartet of boys who all tower over six feet. Pete Piersanti, Jerry Call, and Benny DeCorso, the guards, are rugged youngsters built on the order of Dan Milligan, Ogden's all-state guard in 1931 and 1932. Another week of. practice, and the return to the lineup of Captain John Kinnard and Leonard Higgins, the only regulars from last year's team, will make the Tigers . favorites to beat Bear River in theii first league game at the local stadium next Fri¬day.
