SOUTH HIGH SCRIBE Page 3 Girls Will Feature Spring Formals at Annual Dance In the spring, when a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love, the young girl's fancy lightly turns to of thoughts the Girls' dance and the lovely formal she will wear. Perhaps the gals would like to compare their dresses with these seven. JEANNE HAMMOND will be featuring a lovely formal in line for spring, of white organdy with blue flowers decorating the sleeves and the vee neckline. It's a drop-wai- st with a full skirt. JEAN MARIE DAVIES will highlight the evening with a blue chiffon gown trimmed in silver sequins. It has a full gathered blouse and a skirt with a bodice, also a high neckline, trimmed with the sequins. RUTH EGLI has a dainty pink formal, adorably designed with ruffles and a sweetheart neck. JEAN BRADY has decided to wear her white formal with a full skirt, bringing out the sweetheart neckline by the red sequence trim-ming. LORRAINE CHRISTOPHER-SON'-S gown is of white marqui-sette with a blue velvet sweet-heart neck. The top peaks over a full skirt and comes to a drop-wais- t. GLENNA GOODLIFFE will in-troduce her blue and white mar-quisette gown with puffed sleeves tightly gathered bodice, and a drop-wais- t. It also has the sweet-he&- rt neclc BETH CHASE will show off her two piece formal. The skirt, peasant style, of black and white checks, is topped off by a white blouse that has a square neck-line with black ribbon laced through it. Advisories Contribute Into Thousands During Sale Giving generously, South high Cubs almost tripled the original quota of the intensified War Bond and Stamp drive the week of April 19. This was only a grand climax to the entire second, semester's contest. As during the first part of the year, figures have been compiled by the book store staff and are presented here. The advisory groups are to be commended on their strong sup-port during the entire time of the sale. The figures stated be-low are the ones for the second semester contest, as far as April 23, and including the big drive. The five rooms that loaned the most to their government are list-ed: Room 119 $4,227.75 Room 313 1,285.95 Room 225 1,224.65 Room 228 1,203.15 Room 227...- - 1,162.00 South high has done good work all this year, and is sure to con-tinue it for the rest of the sem-ester, and on into next year, if the past is any sign of the future. Special mention goes to Kirk Brimley, Rene Rigby, La Wana Rigby, Mitchell George, Miss Bet-ty Noble, and Miss Virginia Walker for their purchases dur-ing the special sale. "Dig, Brother" Takes on Neiv Meaning The government has asked all patriotic Southerners, and all Am-ericans, to revise the old nursery rythme to read: "Mary, Mary, quite contrary, How does your garden grow, With onions, peas, and carrots, And tomatoes in a row?" No one hoes if anything will grow, but weed can at least try. If you are racking your brain for something to do next summer, you needn't worry, just rake your ground. Here is how to go 'about plant-ing a Victory Garden to aid the fighting fronts. First procure a shovel and a hoe. The latter is really unnec-essary because the weeds come up in spite of everything. Spade the ground, smooth it, and then plant the seeds in fur-vow- s. This is really silly, too, for the seeds can just be sprinkled on the ground and someone is sure to trample them under, if the neighbor's chickens don't get at them first. The first green that pops up should be immediately disposed of, for it is probably a weed. When the weeds crowd out the plants, and you can't tell one from another, your Victory gar-den is in its prime. With diligent care, a real plot of ground can be cultivated into a garden that you and your Uncle Sam can be well proud of. If your intentions are thusly, youd better try a different way than the above, because you would be getting nowhere fast. Social Arts Party Success; Clubs Present Assembly Although no one present got much sleep the night of April 22, the Social Arts "Slumber Par-ty" was a decided success. The girls arrived, loaded to the brows about 6 p.m. Everyone dropped her bedding in the girls' gym and re-tired to the library at 7:00 to study. All the studying that would ever be done was finished by eight, and all returned to the gym to prepare for bed. Bright new pajamas flashed around the hall and stairs. A pro-gram was presented at nine, then a pajama parade, and "lights out" at 10:00. But, that didn't mean much. There were midnight snacks and private crooning parties un-til at last everyone, including Miss Hair, dropped off. At 6:30 some happy little chickadees sang out "Good Morning!" Breakfast was served in the cafeteria, the gym was cleaned up, and every-one was on time for once. The assembly April 30 was the connectaion of the different clubs and the talent that each con-tains. Each group that partici-pated wrote its own skit, and solved the problem, "Is ourclub necessary during war-time- ?" Clever ideas were worked out by the clubs. After the plays, the organiza-tions were blessed into Allieu Heaven or doomed into Axis Hell. n t Various Activities Engage Alums From South High By Phyllis Clayton As word is received every day, from every place, of what South's Alums are doing to aid the war. we must stop to realize how close this war has come to us. It does not only bring sorrows, for our education still ,goes on, and marriages still take place. And y, Cubs, did you hear about the wedding bells that rang March 31 for Rebecca "Becky' Sharp and Calvin Sor-ense- n? Becky is a graduate of South in '42, and Cal a grad-uate of East of the same year. They were both sophomores of the University of Utah. Becky was active in Social Arts and SHAG when at South. The couple are making their home in Woods Cross, Utah. La Raine Dorton? '39, is now studying to be a navy nurse. She is at the Salt Lake General hos-pital, where she has been train-ing for the last three years. La-Rai- ne will graduate in May and in September will become a grad-uate nurse. While attending South, La Raine was president of SHAG, Literary Editor of the Southerner, active in debate, and chosen DAR representative. La Nore Dorton, La Raine's sister, graduate of South in '40, is attending the U of U where she is majoring in English. La Nore was president of SHAG, ac-tive as a debator, Literary Edi-tor of the Southerner, and also chosen DAR girl from South. ' T Live in Fellowship j with great minds through j good books.

For the twelfth time since South high opened, the faculty list has contained the name of John G. Crook. He says, "Teach-ing U. S. History has practically become a habit." Before he began teaching, Mr. Crook attended the preparatory school and majored in history at the University of Utah. Mr. Crook follows the war news, not only for classroom purposes. He was a member of the AEF during the last war. Out of 22 months in the service, he spent 12 of them overseas (France), in the medical corps. He must have had some good times, for a gleam in his eye gives him away when he relates his humorous ad-ventures. In connection with contributing to this war, outside of war bonds, Mr. Crook spends his spare hours in a flourishing Victory garden. But, as he explains, gardening is one of his hobbies. Being modest, he wouldn't say what pleasure his students re-ceive from the various dialects he uses in class. Mr. Crook is outstanding at South, not only as a teacher, but as an individual, too. Girls Invade Shops Women riveteers, welders, armed force members, bus and taxi driv-ers, etc, have nothing on the girls that are taking "strictly men courses. Bright prints are dotting the masculine rooms and shops. Mr. Hess is extremely proud of his girls that keep right along with the boys in the wood shops. The girls design, make, and display their clever "brain-children- ." The articles that emerge are mostly on the fashion side. Originality is prominent. While the boys engage them-selves with furniture, the new members of the class are busily preparing pins, carvings and small household articles. Right now they are working on beach shoes, with wooden soles and leather tops. The girls are skillful and have proven themselves handy with both ma-chinery and their hands. New and different products am-aze the boys; regular articles are dispensed with. These are women s ideas, come to change the entire outlook of a man's class.

EXCHANGES By Aline James Central high school, of Mus-kogee, Oklahoma, literally took over Station KBIX on April 20. Broadcasts went over the air at intervals from both the station's studios and the school auditorium. The students did themselves proud. Another example of student talent is the Minstrel Show of the Mesa College of Grand Junc-tion, Colorado. The Zeta Chi sor-ority hid under black faces, white gloves, and red ties and gave the college an enjoyable even-ing. Commencement was April 22 for the seniors of Dora high school in Dora, Missouri. The school, through the Dora Spot-light, their newspaper, bade the seniors farewell and wished them good luck. THE ARMY: Hello, girls, you wouldn't care to go with us would yTHE NAVY: Hello, girls.
