Show Friday, September 18, 1942. SOUTH HIGH SCRIBE Page Three Busy Alums Aid U. S. In War Work A survey of South's alumni re-veals that a large percentage are now numbered among the ranks of the nation's armed forces or are actively engaged in war work. Among the latter is Ann West, who is doing Red Cross work at Fort Douglas.) Also working at the fort are Dorothy Pittenger and Evelyn Pay. Corporal Richard Rufener, a graduate of '38, "was recently re-ported missing in action in the Phillipines. Now comes the good news that Richard is safe and still fighting in the Army Air Corps. The of the University of Utah will find Doris Dibble, last year's Scribe editor continuing her journalistic career as a member of the Chronicle staff. Some of the many former South-erners now hard at work in de-partment stores are Marva Tingey, Vivian Edman, Dawn Ryser, Joyce Melroy, and Betty Gillispie. Serving his country in the Army Air Corps is Don Drage. 125 REGISTER IN OFFICERS' SCHOOL The cadets of South High's R. O. T. C. battalion are getting down to the basic fundamentals of marching. The seniors are taking turns drilling their platoons, thus giving themselves the chance to see and feel just what being an officer will mean. Approximately 125 boys from 500 R. 0. T. C. enrollees are regis-tered in Sergeant McNair's officers school. This school is conducted by the "left over'' officers of last year, and its purpose is to train the seniors to become officers. At the end of the course a test will be given that determines the officers for the coming year. Due to the war conditions, there won't be any rifles to drill with. But Sergeant McNair is attempt-ing to make the lives of "his sol-diers" more enjoyable, by giving them the things that will always help them. 1. He hopes to instill in their hearts a word that goes in any condition, and that is dis-cipline. 2. Because of the war, he is going to build up the "rookies" stamina. This is to be accomplished by marching, extended order, and the pet of all, calensthentics. Great things are again expected of South's uniformed men, for they have an honor rating to win for their efforts. Sweater Boys Give Girls Competition It's not cold but it's the style nowadays, the wearing of knit wool sweaters is sweeping the South high campus. Red, black, blue, green and brown checkers, Indian relics, and Egyption hiero-glyphics are the designs right now. Keith Gustaveson, Morris Joe Kjar, Walters, and Dee Lowder are just four of the men who have be-come "Sweater Boys". The newest style in anklets for young men and women came straight from Scotland. Plaid stockings are flashing here, there and everywhere when the up-to-da- te lads and lassies are "Comin' Through the Halls". Violet Ruga has caused quite a sensation in her forest green plaid wool suit. It is tailored with a fit-ting jacket and pleated skirt. Edith Blue will surprise her classmates soon when she will wear her fire engine red suit. Smart summer suits are still seen around in their lovely pastel shades. Getting away from clothes we come to the new hair styles. The "Sheep Dog Bob" started by Ver-onica Lake has suddenly been a has been as the girls of South are getting feather bobs. Dorothee Kil-gore- 's brown locks have been sac-rificed for the short hair style. Blond Velma Warner is not to be slighted as she too has taken the scissors to her hair. Shirley Cohen, Beverly Camp-bell, and Joyce Johnson are three girls who refuse to have feather bobs, and are still wearing their hair long. All in all the boys anl girls are up to the minute in fads and fashions. Southerners Jump on Hobby Horse Feeling the need of expressing themselves in different ways, many of South students have wide and varied hobbies. Inquiring about some of these unusual interests, may give new ideas and suggestions that might help others to use their leisure time to a better advantage. Virginia Dent has more than one hobby. Perhaps her favorite is her collection of souvenirs com-ing from many states in the un-ion and a heir-loo- m, a miniature glass slipper that belonged to her great great grandmother. Virginia's second hobby con-sists of a collection of movie stors' pictures. The one she considers most outstanding is John Payne, she hopes some day to meet him personally. Horse back riding is a favorite hobby of Jaunita Ellis, who feels the call of the out of doors these lovely autumn days. Wilford Stevenson, a senior has taken in the past two years a great liking to the modeling of airplanes, while Connie Johnson has an en-tirely different hobby, which is a challenge to her. Modeling in clay and carving in plaster and wood. Small figures of lasting interest have been made by Connie in Art classes and during leisure time. Reading and archery round out the days for Don Hardman who hopes soon to be quite an expert with the bow and arrow. Sundays are well spent by Mitchell "Tony" "Peter" "Mike" George as he devotes his time to his hobbies, horse back riding and eating. After a few hours of riding Mitchell goes to his favorite Inn. The first time he went riding the horse bit him, but now he and the horse are the best of friends. Occupying the spare time, and very rare time, of Phyllis Kmetzsch are music and writing. These she closely associated with each olfter. Phyl pursues with gusto all types of music. (Even whistling?). George Brewer's favorite pastime is dramatics. He writes and pro-duces his own plays. He also takes make-u- p lessons which led him to buying a make-u- p kit. Experi-ments with his grease paints are done on his associate, Earl Ed-munds. Leon Hagen is an enthusiastic stamp collector. His main interest is in old United States stamps Another admirer of movie stars is Beverly Duffy. Her collection of pictures consists mostly of her two favorites, Don Ameche and Alice Fay. Wolfe Stoll stated, "I mess around on the piano, but can't play." Anyway Wolfe makes this his hobby along with airplane modeling. The Pawn Shoppe i NewJersey Scribes Interview Kay, The Old Professor By Camilla Smith A group of high school inter-viewers from Northern New Jer-sey met with James Kern Ky-se- r, (Kay Kyser the old Pro-fessor of the "College of Musi-cal Knowledge"). Among inter-esting facts learned were that while he was still at college, the University of North Carolina, he organized his first band. The Blushing Bride They tell us of the brushing bride, who to the altar goes. Down the aisles of the church. There's Bill, who she motored with, and Bob with whom she swam; there's Jack she use to golf with, and Steve who called her "LAMB"; there's Ted, the football man she owned, and Don of the tennis days; there's Herbert, too, and blond Eu-gene they took her to the plays; and there is Harry, her high school beau with whom she used to "MUSH". No wonder she's a blush-ing bride Ye Gods!! she ought to blush!!! The Frond, Palm Beach High, West Palm Beach, Fla. Enrollment for the fall semester of the Woman's College, Denver, Colorado surpassed even the most optimistic expectations. Denver is now listed as a leading winter sports recreation center. Social Di-rector of C W C plans skiing, skat-ing treks. "Shall we have a friendly game of cards?" "No. Let's play bridge." W 0 w Teacher: "There's no difficulty in the world that cannot be over-come." Pupil: "Have you ever tried squeezing toothpaste back into the tube?" W 0 w Grandma: "Have you done your good deed today?" Boy Scout: "Yes, I taught a naughty little girl not to stick out her tongue at a Boy Scout." W 0 W-- "Lock Your Bike," Dyer Cautions School Pedalers Miss Winifred Dyer, assistant principal, has made another sug-gestion, this one concerning all bicycle owners, byi demonstrating with 36 bicycles in the blockade, she will show just what will hap-pen to those students who insist on leaving their bikes unlocked. Tuesday when Miss Dyer made an investigation to find out what per cent of the 36 locked their bikes, she found 14 still without locks. The problem of what to do about this difficulty was not hard to coupe with, Miss Dyer said. First she decided that these bicycles would be gathered and put in a safe place without the knowledge of the owner; second, a letter giv-ing this information to the parents of the pupils will be sent out and bicycles returned when an answer is received. Bikes are to be locked up for the students' own good, the office said. Want Club Charter? Hale Sets Down Rules With the appointment of C. Dewey Hale, Dean of Boys, as lead-er of the faculty committee for approval of clubs, it is now poss-ible for club minded students to see that their dream-clu- b is made into a reality. Dean Hale asks that students desiring to organize for action as a club, follow the by-la- w in the Constitution of the Student Associ-ation. "All clubs exist for, and must be honestly striving to achieve, worthy educational objectvies." "Any group of students desiring to form a club may apply to the club committee for the appoint-ment of a sponsor, with whose help a charter is prepared and presented to the committee for approval." Another suggestion is that you pick your sponsor, the name for your club, and have a petition to give to Mr. Hale when you apply for the right to organize a club. Students Deem 'Hello Day' As Success South's annual "Hello Day" Fri-day was a success according to those who attended, as it gave all students the opportunity of renew-ing old acquaintances and making new ones. Autograph sheets were distrib-uted and introductory cards were pinned on all students during ad-visory period, thus making it much easier for students to get acquaint-ed. At the matinee dance a drawing was held and ten one dollar war stamps were given as prizes. Those winning were; Packard Greer, Donna Elg, Donna Brimley, Bever-ly Christensen, Virginia Carlisle, Keith Wright, Cherril Christensen, Ralph Seely, Leland Windward, and Phil Eckersley. BAND, ORCH, CHOIR, NOTE INCREASE IN ENROLLMENT Band members found themselves occupying the music room instead of room 114 this year due to the increase in enrollment over that of previous years. The orchestra numbers 50 members and A'Capella choir has 76, slight increases over yast year. Special groups, boys' double and single quartets, and single and double trios for girls, as well as a string ensemble, will begin or-ganization soon for performances at local functions. Instructors George H. Durham and Armont J. Willardson an-nounced that definite plans for the year's entertainments have not been scheduled, but all of the musical groups are eager to do their bit in the war effort, will per-form in neighboring army camps, theatres, hotels and clubs. j THE WELL j 2044 So. 5th East j Dial 62 j Fountain Service, magazines, I j school supplies I FOR A REAL CANDY j THRILL j j Brazil Foursome J j BAR j 224 So. 1st -.
