THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY 30, 1934. Boys Say New Unit Is Needed Aver Many Things Could Be Accompanied By Association OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette—Editor Jack Bennett—Associate Editor We lack one important organiza¬tion at Ogden High. We boys need a boys' association for the develop-ment of a mutual feeling between- the male members of the student body. The girls took up the idea a number of years ago and since then have formed an association that has a good deal of influence on girls' activity. The officers of the association arrange for the girls to hear fine speakers on many subjects during the course of the school year. Just last week the Girls' associa¬tion presented the Accolade, one of the most splendid parties so far this year. Why can't the boys do these same things? True, we have our clubs to for¬ward a spirit of friendship, but they do not include enough of the stu-dent body. We need a boys' associa¬tion that will reach out to include every boy in the school! Boys, let's form a boys' associa¬tion! LOST Lost somewhere between Sunrise and Sunset—sixty golden minutes each set with sixty diamond seconds. No reward offered for they are gone forever. Realizing this tuth, a few years ago I had my landscape gardener make plans for an ideal settlement tax free, located at Sunset. Now with my one-seated plane I am sav¬ing those golden minutes every day between Sunrise and Sunset.—Ruth D. McCune. ACCOLADE SUCCESSFUL One of the most important social functions of the year occurred Fri¬day—the Accolade. Because of the large number of young ladies and gentlemen crowding the floor, the success of the dance was apparent. Every school was represented and especially did the students of Ogden High support the event. Music, laughter, and gay, conver¬sational mumurings filled the at¬mosphere, and all seemed to be en-joying themselves immensely. In the latter part of the evening when an assortment of balloons were released from a large basket attached to the ceiling, the boys and girls made a mad scramble to get them and to pop them. Soon after the music ceased, bringing the night of gayety to a close. All those who were present are to be congratulated upon making the affair beneficial to those who sponsored it. May following enter¬prises of our school be as successful. —Emily Merrill. OF GREAT BENEFIT In many of the Englash classes this year, oral talks are regularly given to improve fluency of speech, prac¬tice in using correct grammar, pleasing presentations and to devel¬op good transition, coherence, hu¬mor, organization, and interest with¬in the subject given. Such work is indeed an important part of the assignments of the year. In every club and business or social organ¬ization, addresses, orations, reports, and in fact every type of oral ut¬terance is necessary to express the motives underlying the functions of the society. Fluency of speech expresses sure- ness and knowledge in what one is saying, and proper English usual¬ly denotes that the individual speak¬ing is well versed and highly edu¬cated. An amiable facial expression and pleasing mannerisms convey so¬ciability and help to hold the in¬terest of the listeners. When the student gives his talk in the English class which he is in, improvement of these attainments is reached. Since this is, of course, of such great benefit now and in to have such work in the following terms. --Emily Merrill. I'D LIKE TO KNOW Whether or not Mark C. caught up in his English? What's been the matter with Harry S? Why Janish W. uses henna on her hair?—She doesn't! Why Virgi M. and Reed B. are all in a fluster? Who has been on Kate J's mind lately? How M. Paine makes that grand pose when she shoots a basket? Why Dorothy B. is talking about romance? Who is that French girl every¬body calls "Divy?" Why Margaret G. runs around with a padlock in her hand? Don't forget to "Come up and see me sometime."—Mae West. THAT NEW SCHOOL The perennial question, "When shall we get that new high school?" still confronts us. Once in a while a spark of hope brightens only to be smothered by some dark report that we cannot get it on account of "this" and "on account of that" and all the time government money flows out to scores of projects that are not one-tenth as vital to the people of the community. Ogden, let's wake up and do something! THE EFFECTS OF LOVE I am not sure of anything; I hope you will not disapprove: I feel just like a yearling, For I am in love. I do not know this from that; I do not know a chicken from a dove; I do not know a mouse from a cat, Because I am in love. Everything is so enchanting; Everything is bright above; Everything is made of sterling, Because I am in olve. This morning I said, "I do and dare," This morning I forgot my glove; This morning I do not care, For I am in love. I hope that you do not think I jest From what I have said above; For as you undoubtedly guessed, I am in love. —Fred Cortner—Novi Poetae. WEDNESDAY EVENING. JANUARY 31, 1934. Quiz Bares Ideas Held By Players Athlete's Slant Is Learned Through 5-Question Interview OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette—Editor Jack Bennett—Associate Editor All of us have our ideas on cer¬tain basketball topics. However, there are few of us who have the slant of the athlete because almost none of us are classed as athletes. In view of this fact the writer will contrive to present the attitude of members of the basketball teams on five questions: Q. Does the cheering of the stu¬dent body have any effect on your playing in a game? A. Yes, cheering of the student body gives me a feeling of support. When I come out on the floor and hear the playing of the band and the singing of the school song I get a thrill that I would never get if I were not a member of the team. Students do not know how much their cheering helps team work. Q. Does a basketball team, in your opinion, function better as a collective five or as a group of in-dividual stars? A. By all means the collective five is the more progressive. To have a group of men playing toward their own glory instead of that of the team is the most disrupting factor in any athletic game. Half the battle is won if the men on a team play as one. Q. Does a pep assembly inspire you to fight in the oncoming game? A. Almost more than anything else. Combined with practice a pep assembly does a great deal toward improvement of the spirit of the player. Q. Do you hold true to any set training rules? A. Yes. I make it a point to eat the proper food, not attend any functions on school nights, and to be in bed at ten o'clock. Q. Is winning always a matter of getting the "breaks," or is it the result of constant training? A. It is both. I have found that I in most cases the team that trains 1 is the taem that gets the "breaks." The team that is fighting hard is the team that makes the breaks. Perhaps Grant has given us some, new ideas on these questions. He is in a position to know the answers, being one of the forwards. Maurice Kennedy, center, will be the next Ogden Tiger to be asked these questions.—Blaine Larsen. CHEWING GUM An epidemic is spreading from room to room, from door to door, from floor to floor, where girls and boys are found. What could it be? Why chewing gum, of course. That teachers' enemy, Mr. Spearmint Flavor, is waging a war against the slowly succumbing, helpless, young creatures— students — by injecting the jaw moving habit into their sys¬tems. This menacing danger, Mr. Spearmint Flavor, alias Mr. Double- mint, alias Mr. Juicy Fruit, and alias others, swaggers into study halls, stalks into English classes, saunters into German and Latin classes, and history periods. Sometimes he is greatly disturbed and bade to leave by the piercing glare and command of the instruc-tor. Occasionally, he slyly creeps back to his abode unnoticed to nurse his wounded feelings. Mostly, how¬ever, he clutches boldly the person unawares and strikes at his weaken¬ing resistance. Then the poor fel¬low wags his jaws unceasingly all day long. Aha! Far be it from me, how¬ever, to insinuate, that the expres¬sions on the victim's faces are not angelic.—Emily Merrill. PERFECT RECORD I One of the most unusual happeaings of the school year occurred lai Thursday. As all students knoifl every teacher has strived to bait100 per cent attendance in all elm I all day, and that is just what happened on January 25, 1934, in room 213. All students were proud o! this record and are trying to retain it —H. D. Reporter. IMAGINE Barbara Foulger without her charming personality. Dorothy B. walking to school. Barbara S. and Grant going steady once again. (Gee, kids I do wish you would). R.L.V.C. acting as Mae West. The Langford twins not looking alike. Mary West with red hair. DANCING STANDARDS The following standards were announced Tuesday by the high school faculty concerning high school dances: Dances, if sponsored at all by the high school, must: Be held in a suitable hall.
