Pat Abbott Ralph Zeller Barbara Van Vleet . Paul Clute Betty Brenner Jim Jeffries Richard Taylor Ben Heitz Pat Wells Leroy Hill, Ken Gossip Hurts People Gossip is unfounded talk about a person bitter words spoken about someone's enemy or started as innocent joking. With each new person told, some thing more vicious is added to thetale. Take, for example, the fact that someone said Joe Blow was drinking cokes at his house. By the time the story got past three mouths, it was that he was drinking pure alcohol with a group of students, and that they were rolling off the roof. Even when it i3 discovered gossip is false, its too late to undo the harm. After people find out it is un true, they still hold suspicion in their minds. There is little anyone can do or say to remove this suspicion. People who gossip are usually jealous of those they are discussing; so be careful what you say when you are talking with others. FLASH! Did you hear what Mr. Parks did last Monday night after school? This will SHOCK you! He went home. Spare Time Can Be Useful Do you feel restless, always searching around for something to do in your spare time, and just unable to find it? Maybe you need a hobby, or if you have one, another one. When a person has a hobby, he has something to look forward to doing when he has spare moments. If you have things to discuss with your friends about your activities, you may get to know your present acquaintances better and make new friends, besides. More than once the hobbies enjoyed by people in their youth have become major steps in obtaining a life work, both enjoyable and profitable. But if you don't have a hobby now, talk with people who appear to be quite happy with life and find out their hobbies and interests. It will open a way for you. Well Easter's over for an other year. How many people broke a record and went to church! One day in a discussion class, the teacher was trying to ex plain something without much success, and accused the class of being a bunch of dumbbells who wouldn't admit they didn't know anything. "I'll prove it to you," said he. He jumped up and with a dramatic gesture said, "If there are any dumb bells in this room, stand up!" A long pause followed, then one lone senior stood up. Teacher: "Do you really admit you're a dumbbell?" "Well, not exactly," said Glen Ingle," but I hate to see you standing all alone." (Well, this might have happened!'

Wonder how it got Be Friendly! Be friendly! When you see a new student wan dering around the halls, go up to him or her, intro duce yourself, and show him around. Many a new student in Ashland High School has found sincere and long standing friendship and has ,also, made the statement, "The kids around here are so friendly!" This gives Ashland Hi a good reputation. Let's live up to it. And don't have just one friend; have many! Speak to everyone you see don't be just a "stick in the mud." You can't expect to have a lot of friends if you, yourself, aren't friendly. Always speak, wave, and have a pleasant ex pression on your face. This will make you well known, if nothing lse. Everyone immediately notices a friend ly person, and the friendlier you are, the more friends you'll have! Caller: "Is your mother en gaged?" Johnie J.: "I think she's mar ried."

I dash around the corner, trying to locate this commo tion, and am swallowed up in a dust storm everyone steps on me but eventually I arrive at the source of the dust. The students arc cleaning out their lockers after spring vacation! After I return to the base ment and my nice soft bed, I sleep until about noon, when I am again awakened by loud noises. This time I am almost at the scene of the noise. Sev eral junior boys have locked a girl in you'd never guess!

By JANICE CARTER The story so far: Herb Lewis was murdered by an unknown person. Gene Allison given a lethal dose of poison, and Mrs. Wright taken into custody. Later in the day the furnace exploded. Conclusion: For the rest of the week the police worked tirelessly on the case. Eileen Wright was freed because of lack of evidence. M A month passed, and no word L came of the phantom. Students went back to school, with Mr. Lewis's absence as a fatal re minder of what had happened. Finally, one night the phan tom appeared again! Barbara Van Vleet was com ing home from the wrestling matches when a person stepped out of the shadows and stood before her. "You are too dan gerous to live!" "Me?" said Barbara with surprise, "Why, you're joking. I bet you're about the most dangerous dan ger of all the dangerous men that have caused danger for others that ever lived!" "You must die!" replied the phantom. "Die? Merciful heavens, I can't die, why if I died I'd be dead 'and it isn't fun to go walking around dead. People won't have anything to do with you." The conversation went on for about a half hour. Then the police came and shipped the phantom safely to Salem. Later, this note was found after he committed suicide: "As I sit in my padded cell, I must die. Dead, is not living; there fore she could not die, 'cause if she died she would not live dangerously."
