GLEE CLUB OF SCHOOL NEEDS MORE SINGERS Much Unused Talent Can Be Developed, Music Leaders Believe OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette—Editor Jack Bennett—Associate Editor For a number of years the state has sponsored a high school glees club competition. In most cases Ogden High has entered the contest and has many times been placed high in the competition. Once again time for the contest is almost here and throughout the, state, high school glee clubs are, preparing numbers. This year, Ogden High will not be able to enter, because it has such a small glee, club. Students, this is your chance to support and assist one of the most important parts of our school activity. If you feel that you would like to join the glee club, come and join. If you have any friends who are interested in music and are not already a part of the club, encourage them to join! It has been brought to our attention by junior music teachers that there are a great many of their former pupils who are not members of our music de¬partment. To these and all other students we appeal for support in this matter of increasing the enroll¬ment. No one can say that music is an unnecessary part of school. The recent cantata presented by Mr. Hanson has proved that music can be the better part of our lives. Students, there is nothing to be lost and all that is fine to begained by your Joining the Ogden High school glee club tomorrow! Take part! The school and the music de¬partment need you! —Blaine Lar-son. FIRST ASSEMBLY The first assembly of 1934 was called to order by President Jen¬sen. A Weber college student made, an announcement concerning the boxing bout sponsored by this higher institution of learning. Carpe Diem presented a very in¬teresting program. The first number was a cello-violin duet by Beverly Brown and Katherine Morrell, ac¬companied by Charlene Woods. A piano solo by Barbara Weeks was the next presentation. A very clever play, written by Ruth La Vin Cragun, was then enacted by members of Carpe Diem. Frank Fister, our capable yell-leader, and his assistants then led us in some yells and songs. After being reminded of the bas¬ketball games and the pep rally, the assembly was adjourned—M. P. JANUARY WEATHER The children ride on sleds with wheels; Their roller-skates still go; The skier oh, so mournful feels, For Ogden has no snow. The grass is turning green again; The farmer has to hoe; The air seems warm with April rain. Oh! Why don't we have snow? —Elizabeth Parkinson YEAR BOOK PHOTOS Dear Nose-All: When are thej pictures for the yearbook due? Will the same picture serve for a club and for the senior picture? — S. C. M. Dear S. C. M.: Your first question was answered in Friday night's notes. We are not sure but we think you must have a picture for each. See Mr. Robins or Miss Osmond. LOOKING FORWARD Did it ever occur to you that we, the young generation, are but a part of a gigantic play that had been in progress for hundreds of years be¬fore our arrival on earth? The cur¬tain went up centuries before our coming and will not roll down until many generations after our depar¬ture from this earthly sphere. This is best explained by Shakespeare when he says: "All the world's a stage, and we are but players." In fact, sometimes we are inclined to I feel that we are but stagehands. Since our stay is so short, the question foremost in our minds is: What are we going to do while we are here? We will not always be students in a school room. Very shortly now some of us will go out into the world of business and in¬dustry. Thus, the time spent in school should be used to prepare ourselves for the hard knocks we will receive in later years. If we are good students, we will surely be good business men and women. The one way we will be able to become efficient in future years will be to work during high school. The splendid part of it all is that, while earning good grades, we are also able to get a great amount of joy out of school by our participating in all school special activity and general association with our fellow students. —Blaine Larsen. THANKS Thank you, Snoop—I have been waiting for a wise crack from you. back to my childhood days I go— they used to say, just like you did dear Snoop. "Isn't he the cutest little dear?"—My but the world, and H need me. Once he wrote in papers, once he did, now he gets his lessons in¬stead. That is the sad tale of Burp III. Come on Burp, where there is as much common fodder as you carry around, there must be strength enough to spill ink. Congratulations, Jack Doone, on your appointment as yell leader. I'm sure you will help the school spirif to the utmost of your ability. Dear Ting, you are wrong, very wrong; I made a new year's resolu¬tion that I have not only kept, but intend to keep. But, oh, boy if you only knew what it was. I'll give you three gueses as to whom it pertains. If E. E. and the rest of the disap¬pointed people at O. H. S. will only open their eyes they will be able to see plenty of these so-called radiator romances. Just take a look at the radiator by the trophy case at noon. I see there is a new law on beauty (helps—Henna Packs—75 cents, eye¬brow tweeze—50 cents. Try this one. Curtwright—children's finger wave— 25 cents. Oh that it would only snow twelve feet deep. Ha—I have my own ideas. I would be the only one that could jget to her house. Laugh that off if it snows twelve feet —you funny lads.—Orchid—to you. EXCELLENT BOOK During many of the coincidental spare moments which most of us have, we sometimes begin to read a book to engage our interest. It might be a daring love novel, a brilliantly i written biography, or an unusual fictional story with engaging magic of charm and grace and savor, or an excellent adventure-tale. But how many of us read the books blazing with dramatic and warm human interest and filled with radi¬cal and influential changes of our civilization? The book-of-the-month for No¬vember, "The Great Offensive" by Maurice Hindus, is such a story. Every high school student should read it, for we live in the present, not the past, thus we should fully i comprehend and realize the results of conditions which people and gov¬ernments are making in the world today—Emily Merrill. THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY 4, 1934. STRAIGHT PATH CALL SOUNDED AT OGDEN HIGH SATURDAY EVENING, JANUARY 6, 1934. Warriors Defeat Bear River; Bees Conquer Tigers South Cache and Logan Basketball Teams Win Over North Cache and Preston as Division One Race Opens The Weber county high school engaged in a good fast workout Friday evening to administer a 46 to 24 defeat to Bear River in the opening game of the region 1 high school basketball league, while the Ogden high school Tigers drop¬ped a close game 25 to 23 to the Box Elder Bees on the Brigham City court. Weber, on the whole, looked very good in their first appearance. The team played ragged in spots but other spots showed a fast, well oiled attack with deadly shooting on the part of Dieu, center, and Kapp, forward. At no time did the Bear River quintet appear formidable. Weber, by virture of of three baskets by Dieu in rapid succession and a foul pitch by the lanky center and Kapp, forward, was leading by 8 points j before the tribe from Garland began j to find the basket. The Warriors were leading 15 to 5 at the end of the first quarter and just before the half ended with the score 20 to 7 Coach Mark Baliff substituted an entirely new team vhich collected three more points while holding the visitors scoreless to run up a score of 23 to 7 at the half. Weber was leading 39 to 16 at the end of the third quarter and again, just before the game ended Coach Baliff ran in a new squad to finish the game 46 to 24. The game between Ogden and Box Elder at Brigham City was far from being such a one-sided affair al-though the Bees were leading 14 to 9. The Tigers staged a great third 1 period rally and near the end of the game were leading 23 to 22 but a foul pitch by Simpson and a basket by Minson, left guard, gave the Bees their margin of victory. In the other league games in Region one, Logan won from Preston 20 to 17 afer staging a great second half rally and South Cache stamped North Cache 43 to 17. |
