If you have, try to imagine a combination of the thrills you got. If you can stretch your imagination to that extent you will get an idea of about one-tenth of the thrills the hikers experienced while sliding down the slopes from Mount Ogden.After toiling from 9:30 a. m. to 3 :4S p. m., we finally reached Mount Ogden. The trip was so strenuous that we were all per fectly willing to go back by way of the trail of least resistance. Said easy trail was sliding, so we started to slide on the crusted snow down the slope. This was the beginning of a thrill that comes once in a lifetime. We were all strung out for about a half mile when our little kewpie doll yell-leader, who is just as good a hiker as he is a yell-leader, being in lead started down the bottom of a steep hollow. The last we saw of him for the time was when he slid out of sight going about fifty miles an hour not exaggerating. Once started we couldn't stop and away we went to our doom, for all any of us knew. The suspense was awful. At every bend in the ravine we gained momentum. Our heels were gouging the snow in front of us and the flying bits sprayed us until we looked like old Santa Claus himself. Blinded by the snow-spray it was only luck that steered us past a small pine tree near the end of the ravine. At the bottom was a small snow drift which stopped us abruptly. We were brought to our senses by the laughter of those waiting. The thrill was so great that, as Brother Taylor expressed it we felt so thankful for having reached the bottom safely that we wanted to shout for joy. Larry, who had a little less good luck than those of us who had missed the tree, said he felt lucky to think that he was as whole as he was. We started home feeling well repaid for all of the hard labor we had undergone to attain the majestic heights. William Bryan. WEBER TROUNCED BY EVANSTON The college team was defeated by the Evanston high school team Saturday night at Evanston. The final score was forty-four to twenty-two. The character of the floor proved the undoing of the Weber five. The game was played in the town dance hall. The floor was so slippery that it was almost impossible to guard the fast Evanston players, without fouling.The loss of Wilkinson and Hickman hampered Weber's chances. The first half ended twenty-five to five in favor of the Evanston team. The second half the Weberites were able to stand upon their feet and outplayed their opponents. In this half long shots were the main feature, in contrast to the short ones of the first period. The majority of Weber's points were made by Vern Hill, many on free throws. NEW GAME BASEBALL IN THE PARLOR. Airs. Nelson (to Melba's little brother) "What did Athol and Melba do in the parlor last night ?" Small Brother "They played baseball." (Is that what you call it now Athol?) Bill Potts "I've been out watching them take gymn exercise."Francis Moore "Not 'gymn exercise', just gymn." Bill "No sir, I've been out watching them lay bric?-cs on the gymnasium. COLLEGE FIVE BEST WEBER-HIGH TEAM IN PRACTICE GAME The College team defeated the High school team Tuesday night at four o'clock in a practice game. At the end of the first half the score was 9 to 12 for the high school. But in the last half the College gained the lead, the game ending 20 to 19. Wilkinson was high man for the winners. This victory means that the Colege team is coming to the front forever in athletics. Up to this time the high school team has been superior and has won all the games played between the two teams. The College team is fast rounding into shape and before the season is over, it is expected that it will make an excellent showing. FACULTY ENJOY FROLIC "Backward, Turn Backward" on Faculty Night Students have been wondering" why the faculty acted so queer on Monday and were continually doing things wrong, but Bill says they were so twisted Saturday night that he wasn't a bit surprised that they had not yet straightened out. Those attending the party upstairs had their curiosity aroused when spectacular personages were seen occasionally moving through the halls to room 12. It was evident the tailor did not make their clothes as they were anything but a good fit. The masks were of every description, and either long flowing hair or hats pulled low adorned the back of the head. In looking at the feet, they were horrified to see that the feet were put on backwards yet looked perfectly natural. The arms seemed to dangle in either direction and would shake hands backwards really better than frontwards. No one informed them that these peculiar people were only the Weber Faculty, coming to their Backwards party. .Every minute from the time the first guest arived until the close was spent in laughter and fun. Games and dancing were indulged in and every one present had a lively and jolly time. During the dances the faces and heels were toward each other, causing much laughter. Mr. Ber-rett refused to either bend or sit so was obliged to stand thruout the evening. Mary threw the ball and fell forward on her nose, flattening it out, although she now says she has a bump on the back of her head. When all was going along nicely, a loud clatter vas heard without and in came Mr. Poulter on the run, his wooden shoes reechoing thruout the building, his Dutch mustache combed most charmingly, and his clothes fitting like a glove. Late in the evening, all were escorted, heels first, to the dining room where a pencil and paper was handed to each guest to write down four things from the menu printed in keeping with the party. When the writing was translated by the waiters, some found they had ordered a toothpick, an all day sucker, ice water, and gum, while others who were more fortunate found on their plates fruit salad, sandwiches, cake and buttermilk. But on account of Mr. Manning's being unable to attend the party, there was plenty for a second order so all fared very nicely in the end. The menu (from which the lunch was chosen) was a follows : 1. JCilmertubter Buttermilk. 2. Nutghouds Doughnuts. 3. Yalsulser Kc All-day suck ers. 4. Spaper Apples. 5. Retiecaw Water. 6. Mug Gum. 7. Hi Toothpicks. S. Ed. Altesedupeat Salted peanuts. 9. Wandesichd Sandwiches. 10. Padteatties Cake. 11. Walradst Fruit Salad. Going to be great doings at the College vaudeville. RALLIES HELD BEFORE WEBER-OGDEN GAME True 'Weber Basketball spirit was manifest by the rallies held the Thursday and Friday before the game. One of the most interesting features was the fable by Mr. Wilkinson in which he stated how ten year hence the little "Blanches". "Larries", "Petes", "Lotties", "Kens" etc, would listen and hear the story of the great Weber-Ogden game, and how much more thrilled they would be to think of Weber's victory. "Pete" and "Steve" also told of the coming basketball game and what could be expected. They explained why everyone should go to said game. Yell practices followed the program each day. The yelling exhibited showed that the students were determined that High school would not have a chance to use the wreath they had obtained for Weber, if yelling would do any good. FOREIGN NOTES Last Tuesday afternoon, two troops of pretty Chinese Maidens rather startled the students of Weber when they made an unannounced visit during the noon hour. Attired in gaily colored costumes, rich in their sparkling trimmings, they made an elegant picture. Torches of burning incense enhanced the effect. At first Weberites did not know what to think of the intrusions of our fair sisters of the Far East. Accompanying the young ladies was Manager Goss of the Orpheum Theatre, under whose direction the visit was made. After their departure, some of our brilliant students recollected that the Chinese picture, "East is West," was being shown at the Orpheum Theatre and decided that Mr. Goss was taking this means of advertising it. JUNIORS GIVE DEVOTIONAL PROGRAM One of the interesting programs of the year was given by the Junior Class January 18. The program began with a prelude by Thelma Durrant prayer was offered by Sherman Couch. James Linsay and Carma Douglas each sang solos. Eleanor Shorten gave a delightful reading. A young genius, Dale Wangsgard also entertained the assembly. One of the features of the program, and it was a serious feature too, was a few remarks by Pres. Tracy, in which he stated that Weber High school would discontinue in the spring forever. The news cast gloomy reflections throughout the assembly.The last number on the program was a scream. This was a solo dance, proudly dedicated to the Seniors, which quickly banished the cloudy looks. This artistic dancer was none other than the sweet and charming Miss Jacobs. COLLEGE TEAM DEFEATS - WEBER-HIGH SECONDS Last Tuesday, January the sixteenth, the college hoopsters beat the Weber-High seconds by a score of 32-20. The defeat to the seconds came through the superior team work and basket caging of the college. Vern Hill was the high-point man for the collesre team. EVANSTON BRIEFS Sign on office door: "Dr. Holland and Dr. Cheese, Dentists."Bill Pots: '.'Yes, Holland cheese." Claude: 'More applause," and everyone wondered why Francis Moore started to clap. "Plumber" wanted to know if there was a Lyccuum in Evanston.Ruth, you should have seen the way Sic used his "far-away" look on the waitress. WEBER WINS FROM BEAR RIVER BY LARGE SCORE Displaying a wonderful brand of ball, and showing a good deal of improvement, Weber cagers easily defeated the Bear River five, the score being 42 to 17. Weber winning from Bear River and Box Elder from Ogden makes Weber and Box Elder tied for the division leadership. The team played a wonderful game from the first quarter until the final whistle. Almost the entire squad was used. The infants were outclassed in all departments, but went down fighting. They displayed spirit throughout the game. Couch and Budge played a fast game, caging a number of long shots. Couch topped the players in scoring, totaling ten field goals. Had he not had considerable hard luck he could have counted many more. Budge showed his ability to cage fouls counting eight out of nine chances. Halliday and Price, at guards, played a good game, blocking many of the Bears' chances to score. For the visitors the work of Harris was the outstanding feature. Watkins also played a good brand of ball. WEBER TO PLAY DAVIS IN FOURTH LEAGUE GAME One week from Friday night the Weber High School team will fight the Davis High crew. This game will be played at Kays-ville. With the conclusion of the game played that night one half of the league games of the Ogden division will have been played. At this time little can be said regarding the outcome, but it is hoped that the Weber men will put into the game all that they have. If they do this we may be sure of victory. 'MERELY MARY ANN" HAS HER PICTURE " TOOKEN" The director and cast of "Merely Mary Ann" met at Mr. Rabe's studio early one morning last week to have photographs made. The play abounds in so many pretty and comic scenes that it was difficult to know when to stop. The girls who appear in act IV were beautiful in their evening dresses. Dick, the canary, was wept over by Josephine in true dramatic style. While Florence, as "Rosie," smiled in vain her most "killing" smile. Olin, as the young, hand some composer was adamant. One has to see Mrs. Leadbatter and the Rev. Samuel Smedge to appreciate their make-ups. Larry spilled the tea right merrily in spite of his crutches. The pictures will be around town within the next few days. "Merely Mary Ann" promises to be Weber's prettiest play. Remember the dates, February 13th and 14th, at the Orpheum. What funny animals the following would make : Lewis Green, with Sieman Bowman's legs. Heber Jacob's face with "Fat" Passey's body. Monk, with "Mighty's" face. Wm. Cheney, with Dan Shupe's disposition. Irna Cram, without her vamping ways. Frank Douglas, without a new girl. OGDEN THEATRE Showing Only THE PICK OF THE WORLD'S GREATEST PHOTOPLAYS Open 1:45 till bedtime COLLEGE DEVOTION ALS College devotionals on the twelfth and nineteenth were worthy of commendation. On both days the program was given under the direction of the Student Body. The program of Jan. 12 consisted of: Devotional Music Francis Cragun Prayer Olin Ririe Vocal solo Adelaide Asliton Reading Devorah Hoxer Mr. Elijah Larkin then addressed the students. He gave a very interesting talk. The program of Jan. 19 was as follows : Devotional Music , Edris Christenscn Prayer R. Poulter.... Reading Grace Foutz Vocal solo, My Wild Irish Rose James Lindsay Reading Emma Buchler Claude Helm, athletic manager, then explained the game with B. Y. C. "The team was jinxed," he said. "Next time they'll be more used to the glamor of the red suits." A SCENE FROM THE BOYS' GLEE CLUB "Now listen, Heber, it's you who's throwing the whole thing off going 'blaa-blaa' like a sheep and hitting those notes 'way up there like you were trying to knock 'em out," moans Mr. Manning for the " 'steenth" time, Wednesday. "I was following you exactly, that time," comes meekly from Heber. The whole bunch laughs, Bro. Manning included, after which they start in again with Athol upsetting the apple-cart. When the piece is finally perfected the student body hears it some morning in Devotional, and marvels at the fine harmony and perfect coordination among the singers. Nobody but the Math, students in room thirty-one suspect all the preliminary tragedies. Wanted Some scandal about Pleber Jacobs ! Watson-Flygare Hardware Co.
