PAGE TWO ROGUE NEWS FRIDAY. OCTOBER 10. 1952 Does This Mean You? Did you ever notice how some people disrespect school property? During the summer months, part of the building and some equipment were repainted, desks were sanded and varnished, windows washed, floors refinished, and numerous other duties per formed to brighten up the entire high school build ing. A lot of work, worry, and expense was put into the building where a great percentage of our time will be spent for the next eight months. Students should refrain from marking on the throwing paper on the floor and on the campus; and other small but destructive acts. If all will cooperate to keep Ashland High School clean looking and well kept, everyone will be proud to be members of the student body. It's Up To You If you were called upon to get up in front of the assembly to lead a yell, how would you do it? Just stop and think about it for a minute. You might say, "Oh, that would be easy," or "Well, the yell leaders have had a lot of practice and I haven't ; of course I couldn't do it." Did you ever stop to think about the work that goes into the learning and leading of a yell? How about all those twists and turns? Do you think you could do them right with the others so that you would have perfect timing? If you think yell leading is easy, just consider it a bit. Be a little thoughtful of the kids who lead them. A lot of work, practice, and time have been put into every yell. The least we can do is to appreciate it and give our yell leaders our whole hearted support. If that person next to you isn't yelling, prod him a lit tle ; he's probably afraid to open his mouth for fear someone will give him a dirty look. Don't you feel more like yelling if the other kids are? Sure you do! It also makes the yell leaders feel a bit silly when no body yells for them. Your support at the games is most important. If our boys can hear you yelling, it gives them more in centive to "get in there and fight! Let s all go to the games and show our best school spirit! Headquarters Chat Welcome back to A.H.S. Most of us are glad to see school end in the spring; then along about the middle of August we begin to get the urge to come back to school. There is something about getting back with the gang and away from the hard work of summer that makes school a most welcome place to go. Most students and teachers like school and are anxious to get the advantages offered by our public schools. We know that the student without a high school education will have to take the crumbs as far as good jobs are concerned. The student without a high school education finds the door to good employ ment closed in his face in thousands of instances. It is a natural thing for people to seek learning and personal advancement. When a person turns his back to education he is not doing what a normal in dividual does. It is natural to wish to succeed and make a good record that will be worth a great deal to us in the future. It is not natural to be disinterest ed in success and not to have a desire for a good record. The principal's office and the faculty have felt that since school started this year we have an excel lent and above average student body. We have few er troublemakers and more good workers than we have had in many years. Everywhere about us w e see good work whether it be in athletics, journalism, debate, clubs, cheerleading or school work. The stu dents, who are shining in these activities are to be commended. If you are not in any activity, join up. It is more fun to belong than to stay on the sideline. The opportunity is there; reach out and grasp it. If you have any problem about your personal life or your school work, the offices of the principal, deans and teachers are always open and marked "Welcome." We wish to help you in your striving for success. ROLAND L.

A panel of six students, three Republicans and three Democrats, was orgtnized in each of the classes by Mr. Lindley.
