wont won't be good to me Why the Tribune will vill miss publishing items of interest and news just because its Society Reporter gets on his is ear over nothing is beyond my comprehension sion but the reason no report of the Athletic Association Ball on Thanksgiving ing eve appeared in that paper is I am told because the committee did not make a headlong rush when a certain actor made his appearance to see who should he be fi first to implore him to grace the hall with his presence Later developments developments de de- show that the actor in question question question ques ques- tion is a personal friend of the reporter and that this gross neglect on the part of the committee aroused that gentleman's gentleman's gentleman's gentle gentle- mans man's ire A single word of explanation S on the part of either of them would have been sufficient to make m matters understood but the word was wanting the committee lived on in blissful r ignorance of the great crime they had committed and the reporter acted like a big baby and lost an item of interest for his paper And still the world wags on I It t is much to be regretted that a few people could not be admitted to the r ball It is very unpleasant for all concerned concerned con con- but as the he hall will accommodate accommodate iK date only a certain number and as that n e fi point had been reached h. h ell w what h at was to be bedone ben Ii n done if I have heard many opinions expressed f on the wisdom or lack of wisdom of the i policy ot of limiting the number of tickets to be sold to the capacity of the hall and then not admitting people who t come without tickets Most of those 7 whom I have heard on the subject commend commend commend com com- mend the committee for the courset course t taken Still there are those who cens censure censure cen cen- s sure sure re them and affirm that future balls f will suffer because of it The plan however is not an experiment The The Delta Phi has had it in successful successful t operation for two years and would not attempt to give a party under any other conditions People understand it and know that it itis is useless to attempt to work th the committee committee committee com com- and so purchase their tickets beforehand Personally I favor favor the plan j very much and hope to see the association association a- a tion adhere to it in giving future balls a Its advantages are so many and so very easy to be seen that they need not even eveni i be mentioned 1 F For r more than three thee weeks before the r. r h ban ball a notice on the bulletin board announced announced an an- v that no one would be admitted without a ticket and urged students to procure these essentials and yet a few students came down without having done as requested stating that they had hadJ hadnot hadnot not seen the notice What is the bullet bulletin bulletin bulle bulle- J t- t tin b board oar d f for or It has been remarked that Salt Lake girls simply go wild over every new new actor or other unknown individual who whop j happens to come to Zion but I did 11 think our University girls were not tobe tobe to to- be counted among the number Imagine Imagine- my l' l astonishment therefore to hear several of our girls roast one of the the- committee for not admitting a certain mem member ber of the dramatic profession whoa hOJ had failed to get a ticket They could stand by and see respectable honorable young men whom they had known since since- childhood in such a predicament without without without with with- out the least regret but hut the moment an actor met the same fate it was a shame and a disgrace Girls girls do use a small portion of that sense with which you are so abundantly supplied I wish some of the the young men attending attending attending attend attend- ing the University of Utah who cannot be induced to do anything outside of of- their own particular work could have dropped in into to Chri Christensen's sHall Hall last Wednesday afternoon and seen the young ladies of ol the the committee e and some others working like beavers preparing for the ball If such a sight could not not- awaken them to a sense of their duty then they are hopelessly lost It is a fact that there are many more earnest workers among the University girls than a athe the boys can boast of and after trying for days to get the young men to stir stir- themselves it is a positive pleasure to turn to the girls and hear their willing responses i One of our professors hit on a novel novels way of having students attend the balland ball and the football game He required that every member of one of his classes write te accounts of both events This This- may explain why Fridays Friday's newspapers were so much in demand By the way did anyone anyone see any of our professors at the ball I am informed that three of them purchased tickets but where were the others I 1 am informed that the High School Schoolboys Schoolboys boys and girls think that 1 am not treating treating treating treat treat- ing them right in some of my articles They say I am unjust and that 1 do not like them and so let my prejudice assert itself Not so I think the great majority majority majority ma ma- of High School students are ladies and gentlemen as nice as are to be found anywhere I admire them for their devotion to their school and often use this fact as a goad to stir up some of our own inactive students I wish we had a class of students as enthusiastic tic in behalf of the University of Utah as the High School lads and lassi lassies s are for the school they represent represent represent-it t-i t it t would be a pleasure then to attend here A great number of them are are my personal personal personal per per- friends and I am sure I esteem them very highly Some of our brightest and best students students stu stu- dents this year are High School graduates ates and we want more of them here I only wish that a few hundred of our own disinterested students might have havethe havethe havethe the benefit of a years year's training a at t the High School for the loyalty they would learn But I am for the right first last and always If anyone does that which he should not do if doing it in anyway concerns the University be he University Uni student High School member member member mem mem- ber or anyone else he need not look for formy formy formy my sanction and if opportunity affords I will make it a a point to be heard While on this subject I may say that I think it a disgrace to our school system and to the taxpayers and arid an imposition on the pupils that the Board of Education does not furnish respectable respectable respectable respect respect- able adequate buildings for the High School Schaul It should not be permitted that such an old firetrap be used as a school- school house We Ve have beautiful structures in all all parts of the city that have been erected as places of education and we weare weare weare are justly proud of our public school buildings but the one that should be the best equipped next to the University University- the High School School School-is is a makeshift and an eyesore a pretense to be something 1 that it is not Discharge some of our worthless office-holders office cut down extravagance extravagance extravagance ex ex- and steal of public funds and use the
