The bars have been working
hard and give considerable prom

six-feet-four stands over the
others like a giant among a group
of pigmies. But what they lack
in size most of them make up in
speed and fight; and it's fight
that wins ball-games; fight
speed, and brains. Most of the
boys, however, lack experience in
actual games. This is what has
our Grizzly Tamer, Coach Bliss,
worried. He has used Northern
California to gain this experience
and the boys are showing up well
on the field of battle.

the building, we have sixty joxes
of pears which we plan le can

Girls wishing to earn their

have 500 points. She must also
be a member of the G. A. A.
Approximately thirty-five stu

two weeks. Although Miss Kil

a sextet or octet. Plans for the
numbers to be used this year and
the public appearances to be
made are not yet complete.
' Miss Kilgore urges all students
interested in the glee clubs to
see her at once.
"I would like to have a large
enough group of students try

LIBRARY SCENE IS SEEN
The two meetings so far have
served to start a thorough pro
gram for the coming year.
No longer can pensive students
recline In the big library win
dows and listen to the birds and
bees or watch the classes In the
opposite room. Gone are the days
of sitting eight on a side of a
i mall table, go that writing was
a sort of choice motion. The old
library that students of Ashland
High have known and loved for
years has gone the length of
most all libraries that have done
their duty. It has been out-grown.
We have a new library. The
windows are much too high to be
used as seats, but aren't needed
for that purpose. There is pleut.
of space for sufficient tables and
chairs for a large number of
students. The librarian does not
havo to act as a traffic-coo to
regulate the traffic between the
shelves and the tables. There are
even parking si aces now.
Industrious students tan spread
their elbows 'way out without
linking them with their neighbors
There Is plenty of light on the
subject, either from the six big
windows or the big overhead
lights.
There are shelves and shelves.
When a book is with -drawn and
then replaced, the operation does
not call for the use of a can
opener and a shoe horn.
Now we are away from tho
here-to-for Inevitable buzz of the
busy hall and the sla:n of the
heavy doors at least we think
we are. Since the new library
is located downstairs, peace and
ouiet, the desire of every self
re""ecttng library, are now at
hand.
IMPROVEMENTS
GREET STUDENTS
A new library nearly three
times as large as the old one. a
typing room, a physics, and a bi
ology room are the major im
provements of the building.
The upper part of the building
has not been so obviously chang
ed. The old library was trans
formed into a book mark. Iu
Room 6 a new stairway was In
serted, which leads to the new
rooms.
The biology room has now the
added comfort of seats placed iu
the same manner as the seats in
the Chemistry room, the only ob
jectionable feature being the nec
essity of typing pupils walking
through there on the way to the
typing room. The new library has
sufficient seating capacity for
those who go there to study.
The girls' and the boys' rooms
are also down stairs.
