PAGE TWO ROGUE NEWS WED.. NOV. 26. 19S8 Bench Subjected lo Destruction The senior bench is a symbol of gratitude to AHS from the graduating class of '54. It is a tradition here at AHS for each senior class to buy a gift for the school. They buy these gifts with their class money, and some of them are quite expensive. These gifts are a way of saying "thanks" to AHS for all the fun 'they've had, the friends they've made, and all the little things they will have to remember. The senior bench is valued very highly by the seniors, but it seems that some people do not under stand. Students here in Ashland and the adjoining towns do not respect the property of others when they insist on using destructful acts against it. Underclassmen, you will soon be seniors and I'm sure, if you have any school loyalty at all, you wouldn't like for someone to destroy your class sym bol. Someday you will be able to stand on the bench and defend it from the underclassmen, too. It is rumored that if this senior bench continues to cause trouble it will be taken out. We're asking the students of AHS to consider all these things we have said so that we will be able to keep the senior bench for years to come. Shakespeare Faces Crisis!

Are you a collector?? AHS is on a 'collection spree.' The PTA is collecting MJB coffee keys to obtain a large coffee maker. You. too, can be collector.

Did you notice a resemblance between the costumes of the girls in "CheapcT by the Doz en" and the latest clothes tad at AHS? Of concern to Ashland High is the problem of school pride. This problem has been pointed out by Superinten dent Jobe and emphasized by Student Body President. Jim Bjork. We note in the "Med ford Hi Times" that this school also has litlerbugifis.

DRIRV tJUEEM It has been noticed that the juniors could participate more in extra-curricular activities at AHS. The juniors have a junior prom coming up In the future which is a very expensive ac tivity. If the class will start sponsoring dances and fund raising drives, they will be able to finance the dance which will encourage more participa tion. Wouldn't it be possible to form a committee to make a schedule for the remainder of the year with interesting pro jects that can be worked out? We've had about 40 par ticipation at clais meetings, and much less representation on class activities. It will take complete cooperation of all the class to have a successful year and make the prom a success. The juniors do have pride of class. Perhaps the seniors do have a big class, but many jun iors believe that the juniors have the creative brains, the tenacity to put on the prom in spite of all obstacles. They can show the sopho mores and freshmen that they know how to do things. Let's get on the ball, juniors, and show the school that all of us have the drive and the pride to put thing over. 11 -ism 4
