Show Will We Beat North Cache Again? Vol. II WEBER STUDENTS REN DER PROGRAMS PUBLIC SERVICE BUREAU STARTS SPRING DRIVE The spring drive of the Puhlic Ser-ice bureau has started. Emerging from the campaign for midyear graduates successful in every way the officers began to round up promising talent for the rendition of programs. No sooner had this been done than two opportunities presented themselves whereby this talent could serve the different wards. Next Sunday evening at .7 o'clock a program will be given by this organization in the Sixth ward. Musical numbers will be rendered by Cleone Lindsay, Odette Patten, Lawrence McKay and Lowell Ridges. The readers will be Gladys Peterson and Grace Stone'. Derrah Van Dyke and Andrew Kasius will grace the pulpit. Last Saturday evening at North Og-den the Public Service bureau gave a similar program. The occasion was a farewell party for five soldier boys, four of whom were former Weber students. The honor students were Dewey Holmes '17, Arzon Marshall '16, Angus Brown '14, Robert Ellis '19 and Glen Toone, a member of high school graduating class of last year. Because of intimacy with Vera Bailey '17 he is also a dear f':iend of Weber. Musical selections were rendered by Maynard Peterson, Josephine Vol-ker, Ruth Evans and Helen Hinckley. Readings were given by Effie Kasius and John Croft. Prof. C. J. Jensen delivered an impressive talk in which he told of the valiant service these boys were giving and the way they could best become true soldiers. A dance followed the program and was attended by a large crowd. WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY OBSERVED FROGRAM AND HOLIDAY FEATURE CELEBRATION George Washington's famous birthday, February 22nd, was observed this , year at Weber by both a program and ' uu'iuuj, umi lu me me 01 me earner of our Country. The day previous that memorable date the faculty presented a fitting program in his honor. Two selections were well rendered by the Went! orchestra; Miss Florence Jepperson of cur music faculty artistically rendered "The Flag Without a Stain," Principal Beal read a tribute to Washington which is supposed to have been written by a British soldier, and aiso a portion of the last will and testament of our first commander in chief. Prof. Joel E. Ricks gave a talk on the life of Washington which was inspiring to the students, because of the fact that he pointed out that "George" was also human; that he had to fight for self-mastery, and that sometimes his appetites and passions triumphed over his better self. Such a theme brought Washington closer to the understanding of the students and gave them an added impetus for overcoming their weaknesses.

WEBER'S WEBER DEFEATED BY HIGH 22-18 FIRST HI VICTORY IN HISTORY OF SCHOOLS In the most sensational and tightest basket ball contest in the history of the game, Ogden high school defeated Weber for the first time in the existence of the institution with a score of 22 to IS. It required an extra period of five minutes to play off the tie of 18 to IS, which stood at the end of the usual game. The contest was "nip and tuck" throughout and was unusually rough. Lindsay received some very severe punishment and Jeppson was knocked unconscious in the extra five minutes of play. This had something to do with Ogden's two-field baskets which gave them the game. It is quite probable that a tie game will be played as this given each school a victory this season. The line-up follows: T. Williams f Schade H. Williams f Jeppson Clark c Jones Johnson g Lindsay Richards g Linford Weber: Field goals Jeppson 2, Schade 1, Jones 3, Lindsay 1. High H. Williams 1, T. Williams 2, Clark 3, Richards 1, Johnson 3.

FINAL Bumski Produce the Action UTAir, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1918 GAME S WATSON'S SQUAD MEET NORTH CACHE QUINT LAST CHANCE TO SEE OUR BOYS IN ACTION The last opportuntiy to see the Purple and White basket ball aggregation in real action will be afforded local fans and students tomorrow night. Weber is scheduled to meet North Cache at 8 p. m. on our own floor and in our final league contest of the 1918 season. Although our northern division championship vision has vanished, our final standing in the percentage column depends on this game. If we win we take third place, if we lose we finish next to the bottom. Weber's loyalty, for which she is noted, should be displayed tomorrow night as it has never been exhibited before. . Let us show our boys that we are proud of their year's work and that we back them to the last trench. The probable line-up will be: Weber. North Cache.

TOMORROW NIGHT WEBER PROUD OF HER SQUAD COACH WATSON DEVELOPS CLEAN TEAM We publish above a pciture of the team which can boast of the best record in regard to clean playing. We a re proud to say that our team has had the smallest number of fouls recorded against them of any team in the northern division. No player on our squad has been put out of a game on account of personal fouls, or any olher cause. Jeppson as capta,in of the squad has filled his position to the admiration of hie- team mates and every Weber student. Jep's inexhaustable wind enabled him to fight his hardest up to the last second of play. "Longboy" Jones as center has been perhaps the most popular player od rlie team. His work at the small rinj had been up to the standard of the rest of the team. Schade, often called scabe, is by no means a scab. He is perhaps bashtul, small and short on the avoirdupois, but on the basket shooting he was a shark. Lindsay played guard to the satisfaction of all concerned. Ray, like Jep, was in the game all the time. Linford is another modest, bashful boy, but he was always able to get into the game. In the last few games Art has stepped to the front. He seems to spring into aTmost every play. "Shanty" Lindsay, "Swilly" Pete, "Bunny" Newman, "Ida" Shurtliff, Ellis Barker and Lee Davis will probably all be back next year and form a foundation for a first class squad. in "Prof. Pepp" March 8th See "Prof. Pepp" March 8th Benefit Weber Stage No. 11 STAGE LIGHTING SYS' TEM ASSURED ALSO INDIRECT LIGHTS FOR ASSEMBLY HALL - Weber is yet to witness some more improvements before this school year expires while the assembly is already dressed in 191S garments it will not be many days until it will be wearing the garb of the millenium. The best stage lighting system of any scho.'i cr church will soon be completed. So elaborate will the system be that any light effect can be thrown on the Mage. When our eyes behold this improvement they shall also view an indirect lighting system in the assembly hall. Moreover, electrical connections have been made for a moving picture machine, and should Weber ever decide to install one, no further wiring would te necessary. Credit for conceiving this plan must be given Prof. Pardoe, who also got different companies to estimate the ' cost. He then presented his plan to the board of control, which decided to put it into execution. The financial problem was solved when lrof. Pardoe volunteered to coach the faculty and class plays, the proceeds to be used to defray the expense of the stage lights, which is $200'. The board of control asked Prof. Beal to ask the board of trustees to defray the expense of the indirect lighting system of the hall, which is ?80. The request was granted, for which we desire to thank all concerned. The new system will save m electricity about ?1 per hour. It will be another of our achievements and incidentally another feather will be added to Prof. Pardoe's cap. SENIORS WILL STAGE 'PROF. PEPP' MAR. 8 Proceeds to go to Stage Benefit Fund The initiation of Weber- new stage will take place FriTlay, March 8th, when the senior class will present the side-splitting comedy, "Prof. Pepp." Although the modesty of the writer will not permit a little self-praise, it in no way hinders him from springing the "dope" on the rest of the crowd. Douglas Leishman, of the stage fame, will carry the role of C. B. But-tonbuster, and if you don't bust a few buttons laughing at him your case is hopeless. Andrew Kasius, as Sim Batty, a country constable, comes in for his share of mirth making. Lctty Ririe, as Petunia Muggins, portrays here life-like bashfulness as Sim's sweetheart. Dale Phillips will endeavor to carry the part of "Prof. Pepp." Mary Woolley, as Betty Gardner, Fepp's ward, Vera Hinckley as Min-eiva Boulder, his housekeeper; Ray Lindsay as Howard Buttonbuster, who has had the courts change his name to Howard Green, all in connection with the professor, carry the most serious but none the less comical parts.
