SOUTH HIGH SCRIBE Page Three Social Arts Members Elect Virginia Hammond Virginia Hammond was elected president of the Social Arts club at the initial meeting, Wednesday, October 16 in the music room. Other officers elected were Marva Tingey, first vice president: Maurine Lee, second 'vice president; Helen Lee, historian; Margaret Brubaker, pub-licity manager, and Evelyn Pay, secretary-treasure- r. Out of the contestants, 175 girls were chosen as members. Require-ments for entrance were a 200-wor- d essay on the subject, "Why I Want to be a Member of Social Arts," and a party plan for 100 guests on a budget of $7.50. Only graduating senior girls may join the club, further limiting membership. "Renee Walker, a former presi-dent of Social Arts, presided at the initial meeting. Sponsors, Miss Madsen and Miss Hair, and the new club officers, are already planning a handbook for members and a party for Octo-ber 29. A bigger and better year for Social Arts is predicted by the of-ficers. Cartoonist Reg Manning Questioned By Reporter South' students were privileged when Reg Manning, noted cartoonist, appeared on an assembly October 9. . The clever way of telling stories with his colorful cartoons was received with enthusiasm by everyone'. In other words, the assembly went over with a so-call- ed "bang." With the interest of everyone growing in Mr. Mann-ing, ways and means were pro-duced by which an intimate and ex-clusive interview was granted to your reporter. As far back as he can remember, Mr. Manning has been interested in art especially the drawing of cartoons. When questioned on the subject, he replied, "I've never even thought of doing anything else for a living. In fact, I've only worked three days in my life those I spent lifting crates for a cold storage company. Right then and there I knew I wasn't cut out for manual labor." Mr. Manning's hobbies are writ-ing (he has written several books),-makin- g colorful movies, and mak-ing his own phonograph records. When asked the source of his ideas for comics, Manning said that he just gets one idea, then others follow. It's rather like writing a book. "You have the main plot in mind, but all the way along you get new and different ideas." Mr. Manning is a member of the Associated Press and draws for papers all over the world. He re-ceived his training at the Phoenix Higs school in Phoenix, Arizona. Wins Award r, o ' 1 t ' I if- - - f i t V P Courtesy Salt Lake Tribune BARBARA ADAMSON Graduate Wins $50 Scholarship Do you want' to win the Ameri-can Legion Scholarship? Barbara Adamson, 18, 1941 graduate of South high school, won the $50 scholarship given by the Sugar-hous- e Post No. 65 of the Ameri-can Legion, with her essay on "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity." Dr. Charles A. Smith, faculty member of South, is chairman of the post scholarship committee. This scholarship, believed to be the only one of its kind in the na-tion, was started last year with an annual award. The scholarship is offered to students with a good high school scholarship record and who makes an outstanding contri-bution in some phase of American-ism. Dr. George Thomas, former pres-ident of the University of Utah, selected a faculty committee to judge the essays. Miss Adamson is now enrolled in the University in a pre-nursi- ng course. Both boys and girls are urged to try for the American Legion scholarship. Students' Poetry Deadline Given National High School Poetry association announces December 2 as the closing date for the sub-mission of manuscripts for the an-nual anthology of high school poetry. This is a contest that is open to any pupils who are in-terested in literary work. The association, states: "Each student may submit as many poems as he or she wishes. Each effort must be typed or written on a separate sheet, and must bear the name of the author, the high school attended, and the home ad-dress of the student, and carry thcjjfe any compensation for ac-cepted work, other than the recog- nition afforded the students by publication." "In order to insure it is originality suggested that the work be done under classroom supervision. Inasmuch as space is limited, more favorable consideration will be given to shorter poems." The manuscripts are to be sent to National High School Poetry association, 3210 Los Angeles, California. For further details consult members of the English faculty and prepare the following statement: The verse entitled is my own personal effort, signed (name of pupil). Faculty advice and super-vision is permissable. "The purpose of the organiza-tion is to bring before the public the work of students who show promise, and to foster and encour-age the writing of poetry by our youth. It hopes to stimulate im-agination as well as original think-ing, and to engender a deeper ap-preciation of aesthetic values. There is no charge for inclusion in anthology.

Yes, South has even produced some real celebrit-ies. "What happened to the writer of our school song?" is the ques-tion asked by many, of the stu-dents. Talented Elaine Clive is no longer a "Miss," but is happily married to a university man, Eldon Romney. Another of our graduates of '41, Lee McLeoud, is making a name for himself while attending the St. Mary's college in Notre Dame uni-versity. John E. Arrington, who was a saxaphone player in South's orch-estra before he graduated in '39, is now in the automotive business. When he isn't working he is either hunting or fishing. Planning to attend the U. S. A. C. at Logan, next quarter, is Betty Webb, who is a graduate of '41. South's alumni pass in - review, studying and working toward their goals. Dear Concerned: It's better to have tried and lost than not to have tried at all. It's right to say I'm in to win when you feel your courage fall. It's good when in your heart you know you did the best you could. Who'd reprimand you then, my friend, of course, nobody would. If you put forth the best you knew, no matter what the cost, Then smile at someone else's gain, you really haven't lost. Perhaps you've loaned your hap-piness to one who needs it more. And in so doing, opened for your self another door. A door that leads to understanding of the reason why Another man passed o'er the line and you did not get by. So go into the game again, regard-less of the call, For it's better to have tried and lost than not to have tried at all. Bonnie Jean Scott. 'My Sister and I' 'Are Manyat South Brothers sisters brothers and sisters, how lucky to have one especially how lucky to have one here at South.

Sigfried Weiss knows how to how affection to his big sister by giving Ruth one of those affection-ate (?) bear hugs.' Kenny Gregory teaches little sis-ter Edith the art of skating each Wednesday Bight at the skating club parties. Betty and Beverly McDanniels show sisterly love for each other as they put nicks in each others legs while playing hockey. Gladys and Margaret Brubaker simply love each other's lunch even though one eats more than the other. Margaret Kilbourne shows that much needed sisterly love by at-tending each game that her big brother Stanley plays in. Lois Glad just loves to show Joyce, the little one, how to let her pencil glide across scraps of paper leaving various designs. Duane Wardle often tells 'little sister Jean what fun it is to be on the Stage Crew by relating events of the day to her each evening. Teddy and Eddie Anderson are those two twins, who keep people on the edge of their seats in laugh-ter. Look! Mirrors! Placed at convenient intervals around the girls' dressing room new mirrors surprised and glad-dened many hearts by their ap-pearance. South high coeds will no longer be embarrassed as they dash madly from their gym classes after hay-ing waited an extra minute in vain for a glimpse into that one lonely little mirror.
