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.

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!

-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.

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.

Majorettes Plan
New Routines
"Although the majorettes
are fewer in number, their ap
pearance is superior and their
routines have improved im
mensly over the past years,"
states Julie Joy, head major
ette. "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.
