STUDENT BODY ASSOCIATION The school y-ear of 1935-36 has been a very profitable one. Early in the year, ground was broken for a new school building, and later in anticipiation of a greater Ogden High a new constitution, which provided for greater student partici- pation in school government, was drawn up. Appreciation of the fine arts was materially promoted. Dramatic ability was very evident in Ogden's production of Big Hearted Herbert. First place in both the Weber and the Provo debates fell to quick thinking Ogden debators. The work of the music students who participated in the regional and the state contests was outstanding. The athletic department also made an excellent record: Football players gained second place in the division, and the basketball squad captured first place in the division and second in the state. Nor was the social life of the school neglected. Successful dances proved the old schoo1's capability in social events. Behind these triumphs rose an everlasting wall of friendship, destined to bind together forever the students of Ogden High Schooil.

GIRLS' ASSOCIATION With sails ever set to catch the Winds of opportunity and responsibility, the Girls' Association is nearing the hom-e port. The Big Sister Party, held during the second week of school, was a clever exhibition of costumes and stunts. At this affair the junior girls were made to feel that they were an integral part of the school life. , This being leap year, the girls did not hesitate to make their dates for the Accolade, Which Was one of the most successful and memorable dances of the year. For some time past the Mothers were honored only at a tea given on Exhibi- tion Day. This year,however,reviving a past custom, an Easter Tea was given in appreciation of our Mothers. Of this Easter Bunny Tea the girls are justifiably proud. Interesting and instructive assemblies were given during the year. From the sale of pie, cake, candy, and ice cream, money was obtained for maintaining the Girls' Best Room. Under the supervision of Girls' Council the first O. H. S. Handbook was pub- lished, a detailed and complete text of current interest, containing yells, songs, club rules, articles on sportsmanship, and short histories of the clubs. Because there was no regularly appointed Dean of Girls, a committee of five faculty members, Mrs. Iean Case, Miss Emma Chesney, Miss Margaret Corless, Mrs. Florence Newcomb, and Miss Mary Woolley W-ere appointed as advisers. Under their competent guidance many storms were Weathered. Now at the close of our happy and prosperous year, the Girls' Association wish for the girls of 1936-37 a bon voyage.
