Field Named
For Alumni
It has been brought to our
attention by a Mrs. Fred Car
ter of Ashland, that recently
people have been overlooking
the rightful name of Ashland
High's athletic field. It was
donated by Mrs. Lena Ander
son Phillips and was named
"Walter Phillips Field" in
honor of her son.
Walter Phillips was captain
of various sports, in which he
was outstanding, during his
years at Ashland High. He at
tended Oregon Agricultural
college at Corvallis, known to
day as Oregon State College.
He enlisted in World War I
and became an aviator. Cap
tain Phillips was shot down
behind enemy lines in Ger
many, and is buried in our
American cemetery in France.
Everyone should remember
to call the athletic field, "Wal
ter Phillips Field," to show
that we still honor one of Ash
land's most distinguished alum
ni.
