WIGGINS Last Friday evening at the Ogden high school, the Americanized Hungarian-born pianist, E r n o Balough, presented an exceptional concert as an offering of the Ogden-Community Weber college concert series. The composer-pianist gave a program which included not only the great works of Haydn, Liszt, and Chopin, but also thrilling renditions of his own, which included "Dirge of the North" and "Hungarian Caprise." The New York World Telegram was certainly not incorrect when it wrote, "Mr. Balough can always be relied upon for absorbing programs, devilered with exemplary musclanship and stylistic variety." Mr. Balough was especially well received after his performances of Chopin's "Ballade In A Flat," and his two mazurkas, C major, and A minor. "Die Fledcrmaus" waltz which the young Hungarian artist Kavois, friend of Balough dedicated to the pianist, was well performed as his closing selection. For his encore numbers Mr. Balough played Letuona's "Malag-uina' 'and Chopin's "Waltz in C Minor." When in need of anything in good Hardware, call in or phone 2-1473.

"Fellow members, we will meet today at noon in room M-211," is the interpretation given to the siens written in Greek and Latin that are posted each meeting day by Alpha Rho Omega. Despite rumors, these signs were made to attract attention, and not to carry on subversive activities in code form. Despite jeers that were made when this young organization made the statement that they intended to outclass the older clubs on the campus, they have made a fairly good start. They ranked top on the list of scholastic standings for men's clubs with a 2.03 average, and tied for third place on the list comprising both men and women's social clubs. Frivolous initiation for the club will be held Thursday night, Jan uary 15, and serious initiation Sunday night, January 18, in the form of a banquet.

McCormac Sees Cause of Shift in Enrollment Winter quarter has found almost a complete turnover of students in the mechanics department of vocational trades, said Mr. James McCormac, teacher, in an interview. Seventeen class members of last quarter have found jobs and left school. "We are having a hard time keeping boys here," exclaimed Mr. McCormac. "However, many new boys have entered this quarter." The mechanics class is a two-year course, which teaches all the basic things a mechanic should know. Due to shortage of employes the government is offering training to men who will work on national defense projects'. The government pays the man $50 a month to learn this trade then after three months gives him a job. "Our boys get their start here in school and leave after a few months to take the gov ernment training," said Mr. Mc Cormac. Classes in this course are being conducted 24 hours a day. Mr. McCormac teaches a regular We ber college course, and govern ment-employed men teach the re mainder of the day.

West, Jr. Stories on winter sports and national defense are especially ac ceptable. The final deadline for the material will be February 13. All material should be turned in to Mr. West or Maurice Richards, editor. Much variety of color will be seen on the cover of this issue.
