When the campus is breathless and at attention, watching the particular brilliancy of Weber's track captain develop into his form that will endeavor to lead Weber to more victories, there is excuse for departure from column policy.

Come back and see Weber. OGDEN attended McKinley high school, where he starred in basketball and tracK. While in high school, he broke the Junior scholastic 440 yard run record with the fine time of 53.7 seconds. During the dual track meet with Westminister, last year, Clift upheld Weber's fighting spirit by winning the honor of high point man. And what do you think of this! When ouizzed as to his early track training, he replied that, while a I youngster, he had a habit of running away from the paternal mansion; so I mama used to tie him up by his over alls, but this didn t stop Clift. His desire to be a great track star was so great that he calmly slipped out of the overalls and went exploring to his heart's content dressed a la September morn style.

W KSL INVITES WEBER SINGERS Recently the Girl's glee club was invited to sing at the Mt. Ogden stake conference in the Ogden tabernacle. The number which they were especially requested to give was "Come, Come, Ye Saints." The perfect blending of sweet voices accompanying the beautiful reading by Hortense Hatch, brought: memories and even tears to the audience. The afternoon following the presentation, the girls went. to Salt Lake where, after giving three numbers in the Twentieth ward, they returned to the KSL radio station. At 8:45 they same on the air singing "True to the Faith." This number was followed by "O My Father," and "Come, Come, Ye Saints." Instrument obligatoes and minor -mode variations individualized these often sang numbers. As the result of the radio program the Weber college music department with "Pop" Parry as leader, has been extended the privilege of performing over KSL at any time. Numerous letters of congratulation have been sent from various sections of the country. We extend ours also. The men's group is working at present so they too can go on trips and assist in entertainment. The girls club has been invited to sing at conference in Salt Lake in April, and the men's chorus may accompany them. W Dramatist: "Why, are you going away already?
