Headquarters Chat
Students of Ashland High School :
Many surveys have been made among successful
people inquiring what started them on the road to
success. It is amazing to see how many give credit
to one or more of their teachers for sowing the germ
of ambition into the pupil that spurred him on to
more study, college and success.
I remember from my own experience where the
idea of teaching came foremost into my mind. I had
an athletic coach named Walter Hughes, who was to
me, a high school boy, an ideal. He had a way of mak
ing us feel important and worth vAiile. He made me
want to be an athletic coach more than anything else
in the world. He was a smooth dresser and was an all-
around smooth character. I know now vhy the single
teachers used to look moon-eyed at Walt Hughes. I
thought that if I could just grow up to be another
Walt Hughes I would be happy. I went on to SOCE
and turned out for all sports ; I took up teaching with
special interest on Physical Ed. My first job was a
teacher and coach at Malin Grade school. I went on
to college and came out to coach Malin High school.
Probably the proudest moment of my life came when
I came back to Ashland High school as football coach
in 1942. Imagine me standing out there with a squad
of boys, filling the role of Walt Hughes.
Right now in Ashland High there are a great
number who will become successful because of the
ideal set by some teacher. Maybe it was the encour
agement to study more science, music, auto mech.,
snop, Dusiness, journalism, nistory, an., etc. jviayDe gram, Wednesday
it was a research assignment that opened up a new Nov. 16
field of interest.
Students who cooperate with their teachers find
that they are liked and they in turn like their teach
ers. Those who fight the teacher get nagged by the
teacher and there is little chance for success. The
failures in school are seldom failures because of lack
of intelligence. It is because of failure to follow or
ders, complete assignments, and to listen to the good
advice of the teachers.

Since the fall of 1944, some
350 students have received
scholarships through the Seven

applicants from the 11 states
under the program were grant

enable them to enter one of
the seven colleges.
The seven colleges included
in this program are Radcliff,
Vassar, Mount Holyoke. Wel-

Conduct in Assemblies
Recently Ashland High has brought to its stu
dent body some very fine assemblies. We have been
privileged to have both entertaining and informative
ones. Shouldn't we be proud of our school and wish
it to have a good name? Especially a good name on
having proper conduct during assemblies. This does
not mean constantly, rattling papers and books,
fighting, or doing an assignment in English or geom
etry. Everyone, of course, does not like the same
things or the same type of entertainment. If you do
not particularly care for the program, whether it be
an assembly in school or somewhere else, be quiet and
pay attention in all due respect to the performer and
to those around you who are enjoying the program
