Show SUNDAY MORNING, MARCH 11, 1934. Coach Simkins Opens Spring Grid Practice Will Have Eight Lettermen Out For Squad In Addition To Junior Classmen And Group From Junior Highs Footballers of the Ogden Senior High school will don the old moleskins and start their spring preparation Monday afternoon, Ernest Simkins, coach, said Saturday.Simkins will have a large group of boys in togs, including some eight lettermen from last year's team, six juniors and 17 who won their spurs in junior high school football. Out of this group Simkins feels he will be able to mould a squad I that will be ready for most any competition, by fall. Out of the eight lettermen returning Simkins will have an almost complete team needing only a center, two backs and a tackle to fill in. Woody Call and Benny DeCorso, co-captains of last year's team, and guards will be on hand to fill in their old positions. In addition Earl Rowse and Ray Vaughan, quarter and full, will be on hand to take care of the backfield posi¬tions and two more boys to fit in at the halfback posts will be de¬veloped. GOOD ENDS. Ernie Sanders and Phil Revell will be out for ends, their old posi¬tions, and Jim Randall will be on hand to take his regular turn at tackle. Revell will probably make the trip to the state tournament with the Ogden Tiger basketball team and for that reason will not report for another week. Pete Piersanti, another letterman, will be back fighting for a spot at guard and there is a possibility that unless someone noses him out for the berth he may be made over into a center or a tackle. However, there is a bulk of mater¬ial available for the other positions on the teams and the majority of the boys will have a good chance to nose out some of the lettermen from last year. Chet Christensen and Jack Nye, centers, will be out from the junior class, and either one might fill in the vacant spot in the line. Tom Childs, tackle, will be on hand for the workouts and may be just the person Simkins is looking for to fill up that vacant post in the line. Max Carruth and Harold Williams, will be two backfield men out for the squad and Eugene Johnson will report among the ends. JUNIOR HIGHS. From the above group Simkins will have ample material but in addition will have the 17 men from the junior highs. This material will include Blaine Frost and Justin Colyer, backs; Floyd Olsen, end, and Ranson, tackle from Lewis; Riley Bingham, Wayne Steed, McNamara and Glen Draney from Washington and Glen Clark and Pat Deming, ends; Corey Cherrestrom and Vernan Freases, guards; Billy Kinard and Charles Wood¬cock, backs, and Charles Norton, tackle, from South Washington and Norman Anderson and Calvin Agricola from Mound Fort. Anderson, however, is a good baseball man, holding down the pitching job at Mound Fort, and it is possible he will not be able to report. The field at the Ogden high school is ready for play, Simkins said, and the squad will work out there unless it is sodded. There is a CWA project on file now to sod the field and build a running track and if this goes through the football squad will probably work out at Monroe avenue park. A track approximately 350 yards around with a 110-yard straight¬away is planned for-the field which will go clear around the football area. MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 12, 1934. Queen Will Reign During School Party Gayest Event of School Year Comes Early In April OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette—Editor Jack Bennett—Associate Editor Coming— the big event of the year! What? Classicalia! On April 6, at the Berthana ballroom. Be¬sides being the gayest dance given by O. H. S. it is also one of the most important. Why? The queen will reign over this dance. As you most likely know, the queen is chosen from all the senior girls, and usu-ally the prettiest, sweetest girl in the school wins. This year there seems to be so many charming girls within our walls that it will be quite difficult to make a choice. Admission is only thirty-five cents, so lack of money will not be an acceptable Excuse. Also, costumes are to be worn, so new clothes will not be needed. Make your daties now, students, or arrange to go stag because everyone is expected to be in attendance—April 6.—M. P. UPS AND DOWNS Gosh! The most terrible things have happened lately. Ruth Dyer and Garth Ludwig have at last been separated in the physics class. They now sit a whole two rows apart. I-Wanna-O has lost their chauf¬feur for a while. He got in a little accident one Saturday. He stopped for a stop sign and another car came up and hit him. The other car turned over and was seriously damaged. Some senior girls have centered their attractions on some lucky jun¬ior boys. The lucky junior boys hap-pen to be Wright and Rowse. These senior girls spend all of their sev¬enth period study writing perfectly lovely notes to these he-mans. One of the notes would begin thus: "Darling Earl", Can't you remem¬ber way back in the sixth grade how you used to write such notes. Oh for the life of a "kindergart¬ener." Will some of the phoney writers such as Orchid, etc., please write some articles for the paper. There should be an article for the paper every night. Please get your weap¬ons out and start shooting away.— Kwitcher Bellin Kin. THE ORATORS' CHANCE The Lewis oratorical contest is to be held in April. The speeches are to be from six to eight minutes long and may be on any subject that you choose. Miss Ballinger is in charge and anyone wishing to enter the contest must see her. Mr. Kapple (excitedly) "Hello! Is this Dr. Mills? Come right up! Merlin Woodland just swallowed my fountain pen. Dr. Mills. "I'll be right up! What are you doing in the meantime?" Coach, "Using my pencil." "If the devil can find plenty for idle hands to do, a number of our teachers are wondering why in the devil he doesn't—Timberline. WHY WE ARE LATE Have you ever been in s linn to get somewhere during the daI between classes. Well, I have nil here's my story: "I started out on the run is 1 really was in a hurry. As I was running when someone, out warning, stopped right in MB of me. Of course I bumped sit I him and nearly knocked him ow l I, blushingly, murmured my ajofrl gies and hurried on around him. "I just got past him when rhll there in the middle of the hall ml a group of students talking. I udl to slow down and then go out aroadl them. "When 1 got past that group, I there was someone in front of kI walking so slowly that I had to ip-I ply my brakes and slow down toil step a minute. I couldn't pass be-B cause the traffic coming the otterl way was too thick. "Just about that time I was fltcl minutes late for class, and had ttl run whether I knocked down ffl killed a few people. And I'm telling you, I certainly made the pecpkl scatter as if I were a young cycloatl It made a lot of people mad. te I what are you going to do?" Now my suggestion is this: Wbjl don't we have a four speed-way hill and have each marked of. iil ropes. There would be two cooigl and two going. In each one, oal would be for slow people and tlxl other for fast ones—and there soil be only certain places where could cross over from one side tateH the other. Now wouldn't this be a fine dei We might get to class on time, ail Mr. Merrill and the teachers rl n't always be angry at us becail we are late for classes. We cocJdff get there on time. What say? If you like it, nM I can change my name.-Just A Lily. KEEP OFF THE LAWN Please do your "good turn" toward making Ogden "the city beautiful" by keeping off the lawn. Otherwise why have cement walks? --L. R. |
