Pupils Learn About Latest Knee Action Wabbling Plentiful When Mother Earth Begins To Shiver OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette—Editor Jack Bennett—Associate Editor I believe there was plenty of knee-action Monday morning at seven minutes after eight. Imagine, there I was, drinking the last of my six health-giving glasses of water, when suddenly, the contents of my glass poured all over the front of ray dress. Wondering what had hap¬pened, I looked around the room. The chandeliers were swinging; the bird-cage was wildly bumping against the wall, and even the radio was swaying, as though debating whether to fall over or not. When I finally realized that we were having California's earthquakes as well as California's wonderful weather, my knees started wabbling! Do you doubt my word when I say there was plenty of knee-action? Ask yourself, how did your knees be¬have?—Gretchen. REMEDIES NEEDED Many students have complained about the many of the usual occur¬rences which happen or have happened during the school year. For instance, lack of accommodation in 5 the assembly, the omission of an opera, unfair selections (so some think) of some school positions, un¬equal rating of an individual judged from the standing of a club or popularity instead of quality of character, disposition, or personality. Is there truth behind these ac¬cusations or statements? Of course there is some or individuals wouldn't repeatedly make such remarks. But what these same persons don't offer, however, is any valuable suggestion for remedies of such vices, if one wishes to call them vices. If we haven't enough room for the students at assembly, what is to be done? You kickers, can you offer a solution? If we are financially un¬able to present an opera, can you tell us how we can earn sufficient money to cover expenses? If selec¬tions of officers are unfair, can you give the right method, how they may be chosen according to ability only? If the boys and girls are not rated as they should be, who is to blame? Students, themselves, of course. If any one has the proper ex¬planation to these questions, we will, I'm sure, all be glad to hear them. —Emily Merrill. GREATER VARIETY In answer to the request for more variety in the notes, we again say, write, darn ya, write. Surely there are more than two students in O. H. S. who know how to use a pen. Today we received about seven articles from Blaine and Emily, and one from some other kind friend. Again, we say, monopolization is your own fault. To have good notes, give us your support!—Editors. RECIPE OFFERED Recipe for quieting a howling dog. Materials necessary: 1—rubber stop¬per; 1 dog; 2 dog tonsils. Method—Open window, find loca¬tion of dog. Proceed to elevate one's self half way out window, grasp rub¬ber in left hand and hurl at dog. The dog on opening his mouth re¬ceives the stopper in left tonsil. This will silence dog. (Time is not guar¬anteed). P. S. If dog should continue to howl, repeat the process using right hand. If further information is needed, see (a man who has had this ex¬perience) Ed Smith.—D. & N. STATE FINALS This week our Ogden Tigers journey to Salt Lake City to parti¬cipate in the state basketball finals. By winning second place in the Ogden division, Ogden will be one of the three teams from the northern end of the state to enter the tourna¬ment. This is the seventh time in the past eleven years that Coach Kapple has taken the Tigers to the finals. Ogden should be proud of such a coach as Mr. Kapple. The teams he has turned out have made names for themselves and for the school. We hope that the Tigers have a successful visit at the tournament and that they will repeat their past successful final visits. More power to the Tigers! Don't be surprised if they upset a number of the leading teams of the state!—Blaine Larsen. A NEW METHOD Taking a true-false test is re¬markably easy. That is, if you do it my way which I'll admit is not guaranteed. My method is simply this. The statement is made. The interim be¬tween this problem and the next, statement I spend engrossed in thinking these thoughts, "It is false. No, it's true. It's false. It's true." At this point the teacher interrupts with the next question, and I hurriedly write "true," which was my last thought. With the following questions I do the same. After the test is over, I simply trust to luck. 'I've heard this method is not original; so I shant have it patented. Sentimental people have long employed this practice on flower petals to determine whether "he loves me" or "loves me not."— . M. M. W. WARNING Well, all you handsome males had better start planning your cam¬paign for your best girl. You know it won't be long before some beauti¬ful girl will reign over our famous Classicalia ball. Can you imagine a greater thrill than attending that dance in company with the Queen. Let's see, some stiff competition this year, for this high office. If you want to win the good favor of some fair damsel now is the time.—Guess Who. SUNNY SKIES Sunny skies made folks feel gay, Seem to have a kindly way j Of saying to us, "Don't feel blue;" And therein all their beauty lies— Oh, don't you think that sunny skies Were made to cheer up me and you? —Elizabeth Parkinson. SURE IT DID Mr."Smith: "Who succeeded Henry VII?" Fred: "Henry VIII." Mr. Smith: "Correct. And who came after Henry VIII?" Fred: "Mary." Mr. Smith: "That's right. Now, who came after Mary?" Fred: "Mary's lamb." Mother: "What do these High school students do with their week ends?" A. M.: "Sometimes I think they just hang their hats on it." "Was Robinson Crusoe an acro¬bat?" "Why I never heard that he was. Why do you ask?" "Well, it says here that at the end of the day he used to sit on his chest to eat his supper." Dixie S. (watching farmers stack¬ing hay) "Is it a needle you're look¬ing for?"—Timberline. WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH 14, 1934. Books Show Results of Spring Urge Teachers Are Requested To Be Easy With Fever Patients OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette—Editor Jack Bennett—Associate Editor Spring fever is again a control¬ling factor in our attendance and diligence at school. The proof of this is in the crowded windows of every class room just before the next period and on the roll books of teachers. Spring fever signifies a healthy and normal body. Stu¬dents immune to this disease are perhaps more desirable in any school but the human race should consist of individuals who respond to nature and spring; otherwise our knowledge and the ability to apply this knowledge would not grow and develop. Regardless of the good points in attending school, I am sometimes tempted to forget school for a day and revel in the wonders of nature. So far, I have withstood this temptation, but may weaken yet as a good many others have done. So teachers, don't be too hard on those who fail to pass this crisis successfully, for their will power may be a trifle weak and they are only human after all. — Eugene Poulter. CLUB DISPLEASED Did you know that: Frances B. has Blaine's Forum pin and the members of Forum don't like the idea so well, The Notes need your support? A number of I. W. O. boys were found to have no more grace than these high school girls that come to school the easy way? Maxine N. is out of school ill? Hurry back, Maxine! The Ogden Tigers went to Salt Lake City this week to take part in the state basketball finals? Burp II found that he had too much competition in writing puns so he quit? Leland W. is afraid to go to see Margaret Paine because he does not know what to say while there? The process of making the year¬book is in full swing? Lloyd F. is called the bully of company B by those stalwart gents? Blaine L. likes his new girl friend? Spring is almost here for sure? Yours truly is tired of entertain¬ing you lucky people with choice bits of news? I will be coming around the cor¬ner again sometime? Be prepared! —Peter Zane II. GREGG ARTISTS PARTY At six o'clock Friday evening, March 9, thirteen members of the Gregg Artists club gleefully embarked on a progressive dinner —the progress to be made on roller skates. They were accompanied by their advisor, Mr. Robins, and his wife in their cars. The first stop was made at the home of Arda Phillips where the fifteen enjoyed fruit cocktails. They then rolled on to the home of Mary and Martha Vance to relish hot chili. All was well, and the girls, revel¬ing in the beautiful beginning be¬gan their next journey to the home of Nancy Emmett where they were to be served ice cream and cake. Alas, they had made no allowance for the hill on Twenty-sixth street. Dubiously, several members at¬tacked it and came to a morbid end Deep in the business of dis¬covering which leg belonged to whom, their eyes were attracted by a fellow member descending rapidr ly, but not on her feet! A summary of damages proved six pairs of badly torn hose, and the corresponding number of pain¬fully skinned knees, and one dress minus part of the skirt, one skirt sorely torn, one damaged coat. More serious, however, was a sprained finger and injured arm. Yet the courageous spirit of the club prevailed; and the dinner went on. After first aid treatments had been administered at the home of Nancy Emmett, those members who felt capable patronized a local theatre.—Ann Wahlen. EARTHQUAKES By the time a student reaches high school he is able to bear al¬most anything. During his climb he has been through dry classes, sessions after school, rain, snow, long walks to school, hard lessons, and bad teachers. In fact the aver¬age pupil in high school can, in most cases, take almost anything. We don't mind so much our old building or our hard subjects but we do object to earthquakes. The teachers sometimes say that stu¬dents oftimes need a good shaking. Perhaps this is true, but if we must be shaken can't it be done individ¬ually instead of collectively? The quake rocked the building so much that in one room a young mouse was shaken from his nest. The one bit of humor derived from this earthquake was afforded students walking to school that morning. People made it a habit of coming out in their night clothes to see if the chimney was still on the house. Some fun!—Blaine Larsen. STATE CHAMPIONS Ogden High school is justly proud of the four members of the stu- I dent body who last Friday were de¬clared winners of the Utah State High school debating title. All four are members of the Forum club. Mr. Willis Smith, advisor of For¬um, coached both teams. Once again the debating art places Ogden on the map of lead¬ing high schools of the west. It would be well for the student body to pay attention to this activity and its followers. Congratulations to the state de¬bating champions!—Blaine Lar¬sen. ANNOUNCEMENT CARDS Have you noticed the crowds of juniors around the trophy case. Well, I did; and I therefore came to the conclusion that as the jun¬iors were watching it must pertain to the seniors. I investigated and found, as I suspected, there was something in the case which con¬cerned me and every other senior. Seniors, elbow your way through the insignificanti and see the an¬nouncement cards. Pick your fav¬orite and remember its number. We will vote in the near future on the one the class will use. — Jack Ben-nett.
