GRA INITIATES NEW MEMBERS Girls Recreation Association held a fun night, September 13. All girls interested in join ing the G.R.A. were invited. Games were played in the gym after which the girls went to the health room where the officers explained the purpose of the organization, the system of points and awards, member ship qualifications, intramur als, and activities. Entertainment was furnish ed by Elvis Presley (Nancy Lininger), Rusty DrapcK Lin da Wright) and other panto mine impersonators. Officers of the G.R.A. elec ted last year, are president, Darlene Miller; vice president, Betty Sorenscn; secretary-treasurer, Jane Yaple; intramural manager, Carol Lininger, assis tant intramural manager, Nan cy Lininger; publicity, Kiki Doddridge; and honorable member, Kathy Ingle, past president. Fifty-eight more girls are now members of the Girls Rec reation Association as a result of the initiation held Septem ber 20. Bare-footed and blindfolded, the girls were taken through a maze of unidentified objects. Reminders of "we'll be to the worms any minute" resulted in screams. Next, they were led to the gym where they were left, still blindfolded, to wait patiently for guides who never returned. Officers of the G.R.A. told of the club's aims and ideals and led the girls in the pledge. PLAZA GROCERY On iha Plaxa By the Way "Where has Lloyd with the 55 Buick gone?" Such is the lament of a certain senior girl. Is it the guy or the car you're looking for, N.? Orchestra hit the jackpot on some music lately. Got some real rare stuff in. Something about Orpheus in his under wear. Whadda ya say to taking up a collection and buying the poor guy a suit? If any of you happened to notice quite a few bright-eyed juniors running around in a daze sometime on or around Sept. 27, it can probably be attributed to the fact that their class rings had just arrived. By the looks of the rings, they had a right to be dazed. Quite a few swaps have been made, too. If school spirit can be measured in any way by the amount of Red and White that turned up on Color Day, Ashland High school has it. However, there were some worried freshmen running around without any on. Most of them won't forget again. J. H., do you always make as much noise when you have to crawl through a box as you did at the G.R.A. initiation? aay, Mr. Mobley, if you ever see me with the hie coughs, just leave me alone huh? Poor kid, you shouldn't have scared him so bad! Have you found out what happens to energy that's left in the body when a person dies, yet J.? If you haven't. don t worry about at; you won't be around to find out after you die. And now to curl up with an apple and my old faithful, American problems. Don't laugh juniors, you'll have it next year! Stevenson Heads New Rally Squad Seven girls will form the Ashland High rally squad in cluding our yell queen, Vivian Stevenson, and her squad Jeanne Keenan, Evey Deets, Sherry Taylor, Kiki Dodde ridge, Ann Winters and Diane Bowlin. Plans for the coming year include new yells and dance steps, according to Vivian. The adviser for the group is Miss Christopher, who stated that, "Credit should be given to them for the tremendous back ing they have given our foot ball team so far this year."

STOP FOR ALL KINDS OF DRINKS AND CANDY ZUPE'S CONFECTIONERY 607 - Siskiyou Ashland SKATE Yilh The Gang AT Ashland Skafevay -THE ROD- A Rod is distinguished by its appearance; It sags mostly all over. It has short fuzzy hair at one end and long fuzzy shoes at the other. It wears a shirt, a narrow belt, and just about wears a pair of trousers. Its accessories include a rat tail comb. If the weather is right it sometimes wears a long scarf. It can usually be seen in 'groups of two or more standing beside walls or loung ing in chairs. It subsists chief ly on gum, candy bars, pop, peanuts and comic books. Rods are from three to seven feet tall. The shirt (the upper half of the uniform) is worn with the collar standing up. This is as sumed to achieve two pur poses: (1) is imparts a more regal bearing and, (2) it pre vents prying eyes from seeing If its neck is clean. The colors of shirts are many, pink being the most. It is adorable. The sleeves of the shirt must be rolled up to show muscles which s o m etimes resemble those of man closcfy related to the Rod. The trousers are most inv portant. They must be of the proper size: five inches larger than the waist measurement This may be accomplished by placing about five pounds of lead in the seat of the trousers. This could be removed when the proper sag appears, but it isn't. The trousers should be at least long enough to sag over the shoes and erase any tracks that may be left if the Rod moves. The coiffure of the Rod con sists of equal parts of hair and oil. Some hair is left on top of the dome for re-seeding. The sides are elegant. They are long. They are wavy. They swoop over the ears graceful ly, meet in back and end some where behind the collar; The coiffure is repaired at regular intervals, about every 13 min utes, with the rat-tail comb. If strenuous, labor, such as sharpening a pencil has taken place, the repairs will be made more often. A Rod must never stand facing downward unless he is well oiled, for a catas trophe would result: the coif fure would collapse on the Rod which operates on a tight schedule. Lifted From David Douglas Highlander Portland, Oregon Experience is something I al ways think I have until I get more of it. Burton Hillis SNOW WHITE FREEZE TRY a G R U M P Y Lost! My Points An ugly rumor is that a certain girl lost her points to a hall phantom, supposedly to one of the West hall gang. These points were right in her fist along with a bunch of po litical stickers that she wanted to put up if or Daddy. Thanks to our real cool stu dent body president Roy Gray who takes care of everything, Roy wiped her tears away and took her to Snuffy Smith in the absence of Mrs. Taylor. Mr. Smith stated, "I don't know why the West hall gang want to pick on an under classman, especially when we want to encourage underclass man to get points for various activities." Fads & Fashions This school season promises to be one of gay colors and u- nique fashions. New fads have arisen in Ashland High along with the new styles in cloth ing. With ever-popular sweaters, mixed or matched, this fall's skirts are leading the style pa rade. In a variety of knits and yarns they offer endless va riety. The trimmed-to-match look on sweaters is very smart, for instance: tweed skirt, tweed trim on sweater (by the way' on the market are new cold water soaps made especially for lovely woolen sweaters, which will keep them fresh and fluffy). Slim, gently flared skirts and skirts with sewed down pleats are definitely in the pic ture. In tweeds, plaids and flannels, these skirts can be worn in so many combinations of sweaters and blouses that they offer a real savings to school girls. The choice of colors in both skirts and sweaters is even greater this year. One of the luscious new shades is a warm, glowing coral. The fashion picture this year is the neat, well-dressed look, and judging from the students at , . Ashland High, teen-agers are up to date on fashions.

"Credit for their perform ances goes mostly to the head majorette, Julie Joy, who has held this position for two years. Her ideas have proven to be very helpful," states Miss Hagen, the adviser. Julie's team consists of Lani Knox and Marianna Fletcher; both entered majorettes this year. Marianna, a senior this . year, is also president of Pep club. Lani is a junior and plans to be head majorette next year. An example of their fine work is the job they did at the Lakeview game. They plan on having routines worked in with the flag girls during bas ketball season. "Plans for this year are to start a majorette club for girls interested in how to twirl a baton. The purpose is to teach some girls to twirl so that they may go out for maj orettes next year," stated Julie Joy. Support the advertisers DON'S RADIO & TV 33 E.
