WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 14, 1934. Band Found Worthy Of Good Word Feels Overlooked During Manifold Preparations For Cadet Hop OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette—Editor Jack Bennett—Associate Edltot Lately there have been many commendatory words about the Ca¬det hop and the Crack Company. And I've heard so much about the band playing at the Cadetihop that I am afraid there isn't enough paper to put it all on. (Sarcasm). There has been lots said about the Crack Company and what kind of soldiers they are and how good they are, but not a thing has been said about the O. H. S. band. No, what's a band to O. H. S., they don't; need one to entertain them in the assemblies; they don't need it at the games to give the team pep; they don't need it at pep assemblies and pep rallies; they don't need it to advertise Ogden High school, and above all the crack company all the rest of the students don't need it at the Cadet hop. The crack com¬pany can do their drill without it. Yet they come in the band room every morning and ask Mr. Hanson when we will play with them. Cadets and students! Let's get together and support each other. The band can¬not support the school without the support of the students and cadets of the companies. So, students, get out and talk the band up. I'm sure they can come up to everything that you say about it. Let's pull all for one, and one for all!—Amen. A. band member.—W. P. WALKING HOME Since most of us would rather talk of walking home from school than doing it, suppose we speak of the different ideas on the subject. School is out for the day, and a steady stream of students flows out of the four doors of the school. Let us notice the many types of stu¬dents and their feelings toward walking home. Some fellows have things at home to do and because yf this they are in a hurry to reach that happy abode. Then there is another type of student, the happy- go-lucky type. This student is the most prevalent among us. He is the kind that starts out after school, has plenty to say to his boy friends on the way, and reaches home about three hours later. Now comes the fellow who walks home with his lady love. To him the walk home is just a bowl of cherries. Instead of see¬ing rows of houses on dirty, bare streets, he sees an avenue of beau¬tiful grass bordered by green, fresh trees. In his case the trip is much too short. Among the girls com¬plaints have been made to the ef¬fect that the walk home is too long or too short, as the case may be. The girl who lives near school wants a home just inside the city limits, while the girls who live nearly to North Ogden want to live next door to the school. About the only thing we can suggest to remedy this con¬dition would be to have the girls change places. With all of our dif¬ferent opinions isn't it strange that all of us arrive at the same place in the end—home?—Blaine Larson. THE WEATHER The weather man is not helping further the idea of deep thought in school these days. At this time other years we were plowing through two feet of snow on the way to and from school. This year our eyes have a habit of wandering from the print¬ed page to the wonderful splendor of an unusual mid-winter spring time. We feel like leaving fate and fleeing into the wide out of doors. Nothing seems more enjoyable than the warm sunshine. This sounds just a wee bit melo-dramatic doesn't it? Just the same, this is the way we feel and our work shows it. The teachers are starting to get over our collective failure to pay attention. Do you blame us? It looks as if the only way to regain our interest would be for the school board to appeal to the weather man. We hope they don't do it, though! —Blaine Larsen. INVITATION Wouldn't you like to have a com¬plexion like Jean Harlow and a physique like that of Clark Gable? Good food makes both of these. Be¬sides bringing health and good looks right foods enables one to study without any physical defects. Healthful and appetizing meals are prepared by the Cafeteria. The cost is small and the benefits great. Why don't you buy your noon-meals there? The benefit to yourself is cer¬tainly evident. —Elva Miller. BASKETBALL INTERVIEW Following are the questions asked "Toots" Whittaker, Ogden forward, and the answers he gave. Q. Do you think that missing a day's practice would hinder your playing the rest of the week? A. "If I miss a day's practice I get out of the spirit of the thing. Not only that, we get only three days of practice a week, and to miss one of them would be quite harmful." Q. What are your feelings when you are put out of a game on fouls? A. Although I hate to go out of the game, I realize that I fouled and cannot expect anything else. Just the same, a fellow hates to go to the showers because of four fouls." Q. When you have to overcome a big lead, do you feel the same as when you are playing a normal game? A. "When overcoming a lead, a team is more careful in defense and a little more likely to take chances in making points. This does not. however, break up team play. I think we handle the ball better in a close game than in a game we are just about sure to win." Q. What effect does losing a game have on your feelings toward the next game? A. "When a team loses a game one week it will be back the next game with the sole purpose of mak¬ing up for the ground lost. To lose a game sometimes adds pep to a good team. Our team may be cited as an example. We lost the first league game we played, we saw what was wrong and have not lost a game since." Q. Do you think that a team, at the first of the game, realizes that the making of foul pitches may be the means of wining the game? A. "No. A man feels that the baskets count. The only time that a player thinks of the importance of making a foul pitch is when the game is close and there are just a few minutes left to play." Merlin Woodland, guard, is next. —Blaine Larsen. THURSDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 15, 1934. Ogden High Street Parade To Prepare For Friday's Game Tigers Meet Box Elder Here; Weber Goes To Bear River HIGH SCHOOLS, REGION ONE Standing of the Teams W. L. Pet. Ogden 6 1 .857 Logan 6 1 .857 Weber 5 2 .714 South Cache 4 3 .571 Box Elder 4 2 .571 Bear River 1 6 .143 Preston 1 6 .143 Schedule for Friday Box Elder at Ogden. Weber at Bear River. North Cache at South Cache, Logan at Prestdn. Although the Box Elder high school basketball team is resting comfortably in a tie for third place in the division No. 1 race, they have a fine chance of pulling up to second by winning over Ogden this week and Weber the following. The Bees, incidentally, are the only team to hold a victory over the Ogden Tigers this year although the local team has been lucky to pull out of others, notably the We¬ber and Logan games, on the long end of the score. To assure the team members that the study body of the high school is behind them 100 per cent and even more a big rally has been planned for this evening on the streets of Ogden. MEET AT SCHOOL The students will meet at the high school at seven o'clock and led by the snappy R. O. T. C. band will march down town where the old formula of holding a pep rally will be run through. The Tigers, although they are tied for the top spot, can still be kicked clear out of the picture should they lose to Weber and Box Elder both. A loss to either one will put them in a tie for third place which they will have to play off with the added chance that they will be the losers. Inasmuch as the third place win¬ner of this division plays the win¬ner of Rich division for the right to go to the tournament it usually means that the thrd place winner here answers the roll call at Salt Lake when the tourney begins. The Bees, incidentally, have not been to a Utah state tournament for some time and this is the first year they have had a chance to make it. Of course a loss to either Ogden or Weber, who they entertain next Fri¬day night, would eliminate them from the picture. SCRAPPY SQUAD Earl Ferguson has a scrappy squad and one that is capable of turning in a fast game at any time. Coach Dix Kapple will start the combination that has been clicking so well for him the last two weeks consisting of Whitaker and Jensen at forward; Kennedy at center, with Captain Clyde Greenwell and Woodland at guards. Greenwell has completely recovered from his cold of last week and is expected to be back in shape to play his usual stel¬lar game. Ferguson will probably use the same lineup that he has started throughout the season with Rasmus-sen and Simonsen at forwards, Han¬sen at center and Mecham and Min¬son at guards.
