Speaker For Graduation Is Booked School Already Preparing For Class Exercises Next May OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary paquette—Editor Jack Bennett—Associate Editor The Rev. John W. Hyslop will ad¬dress the graduating class at the Sunday services to be held May 27. It is ten years since Mr. Hyslop ad¬dressed the graduating groups, so that we feel honored that he should favor us again. It is fitting also that Mr. Hyslop should meet us this year as his son, one of our promi-nent music students, is graduating this year. Doesn't it seem strange to be talking about graduation, since we haven't even had winter yet? STANFORD TESTS Do you wish to go to Stanford next year? If so, you better be at the University of Utah early Saturday morning to take the comprehensive examination, Garth Peck and Wilma Mulcahy will chaperone you. These examinations serve also for Mills college. BOOTH BARKER You all must know that it is the custom to have booths at the Classicalia. I would suggest that all you club members start thinking about which booth you want and then save your money. In case any of the girls' clubs find that they lack a pair of strong lungs to use as a barker, I am sure Phil Thompson would oblige you by taking the job. I really don't think you'll find a better man for the job. "Don't-cha think so."—Guess Who. UNFAIR One hears many remarks in school all day. The most frequent one and || justifiable accusation students ever made is the unfairness of snobbish¬ness. No habit is so cutting, so un¬bearable, so undemocratic, so posi¬tively ill-mannered, so disgraceful to his or her standing as a Christian as the habit of deliberately ignoring other people. And it is a habit. Just two weeks ago a certain girl, who was not clothed, perhaps, as fashionably or as well as most girls are, happened to approach a beau¬tiful, smartly dressed, popular miss who she thought was an old friend. A group of boys were standing near by. When the girl approached her one-time comrade, this girl, not wishing to be seen with her, delib¬erately turned her back. The poorer girl was naturally deeply hurt and quickly retreated, being sensi¬tive of ridicule. Later she was found crying to herself. Is this what you call democracy? Is this what you call a demonstra¬tion of school spirit, of friendship? Is this helping a good feeling among associates? The answer is undoubt¬edly negative. Public schools are not places for snobs. Those few people who are of such calibre would be wise, indeed, to conceal or destroy their conception of their importance in a school whose ideals are much higher, aims much longer than they could ever attain under such an illusion.—Emily Merrill. It was a drowsy, sweet spring morning. The students were in their fourth period classes dreaming con-tentedly about the good things anti¬cipated for lunch, when suddenly they began to feel faint and dizzy; things did not seem to be so drowsy and sweet as before. Everyone be¬came wide awake. Excited students began talking about the new, unique sensation they had just experienced. Thanks, Mr. Earthquake, for noth¬ing less than you could have roused this school of people, afflicted with spring fever.—Elva Miller. SPRING FOOTBALL If practice makes perfect, Ogden High will have a corker of a foot¬ball team in the running next year. The fellows began a spring foot¬ball practice this week under the supervision of Coach Simkins. A number of letter men reported back along with many football stars from the junior high schools. The pur¬pose of this spring training is to give the fellows a chance to don the moleskins and go over some of the early season routine. The junior high players are also given a chance | to show their wares before the regu¬lar season begins. Next fall the fellows will start the football season a great deal better off for their spring training in fundamentals. Students, next year's football team is in the making!—Blaine Larsen. MORE HUMOR NEEDED Any school notes needs to be al¬ways spiced with excellent humor; such type of composition is the life of the material. We have such witty souls in school giving bits of real humor in their conversation to their associates that it is a pity such saying can't be recorded. There are so many students who are clever in their own dialogues and remarks, and so miserably few who will con¬tribute their ideas to the notes. Why waste your valuable words on a small audience who might be un- appreciative anyway? Hand in your brilliant thoughts to be published for the delight of a much larger group who will undoubtedly enjoy mir work.—Emily Merrill. THURSDAY EVENING, MARCH 15, 1934. TIGERS SPARKLE WITH GREENWELL LEADING ATTACK Squad Meets Lehi At Nine-thirty This Evening Jumping into an early lead that saw them enjoying a 20 to 7 margin at the half, the Ogden Tigers es-tablished themselves as one of the favored teams to take the Utah state basketball championship Wed¬nesday night with their victory over Hurricane 35 to 17, and today were groomed for Lehi, conquerors of Uintah. The Ogden squad played its best ball of the season to completely be¬wilder the Hurricane team with its fast breaking attack and deadly bas¬ket shooting. Substitution of the entire reserve force in the second half cut down the margin of the Tiger's victory and slowed up their offensive some¬what but even the second string left little doubt as to which team was the strongest. PLAY LEHI Ogden and Lehi have been spot¬ted in the feature position this eve¬ning and will play at nine-thirty o'clock. Lehi, a long rangy crew, flashed some fast ball in their con¬test against Uintah, which they won 41 to 30 after having been held to even terms for three quarters. Every Ogden player broke into the scoring column in their game, with Captain Clyde Greenwell leading the parade with 10 points. Toots, Whittaker, forward broke out the first point of the game when he sank a foul pitch for one point. Hurricane tied the score when Stratton, center, dropp'ed through a foul pitch. Ison, Hurricane forward, then dropped a basket to give them a three to one lead but another foul pitch by Whittaker and a basket by Jensen gave Ogden a one point lead and they were never tied again. At the end of the first quarter they were leading 9 to 5 and at the half 20 to 7. They held the Hurricane squad to three points in the third quarter while they chalk¬ed up six to lead 26 to 10. The Tiger team looked decidedly hot, and if they are able to main¬tain their pace this evening, should give the strong Lehi squad a hard I tussle with the chances very good they will take the game.
