Gummy Water
Students! Unite! Help wipe out gummy water.
How many times have you walked over to one of
our gleaming water fountains in our school expecting
to receive a nice fresh, cool drink of water? But as
you bend over you find a nice, juicy wad of gum
left behind by some person who had a bad case of
the dropsi. It really does spoil your taste for the
water, doesn't it?
Actually it's not very hard to walk over to a
waste basket and dispose of the gum, or arrange
it in your mouth so it won't accidentally drop out
into the fountain where every high school student
refreshes himself with a cool drink of water.
We don't have very much of this gum business
gonng on, and I give you praise for that, but I recall
one too many times when gum has been found in
the fountains.
Students! Let's wipe out this gummy water
business.

Have you noticed more adults
wandering around? They are
another group of student teachers
from S.O.C.
We would like to add our con-
graulations to Joy Farenhurst on
winning the contest for Home-
maker of the year.
What's this we hear about Jan
Susee accepting a bribe to have
a story written about him?
We would like to point out that
Ashland High was the only school
in the United States to have
lOO'.l acceptance of its students
at Stanford University.
The sophomore team has been
doing quite well; why don't some
more people turn out and support
them?
Has anyone noticed the new
fad? You're nobody unless you
have a pair of crutches.
Why doesn't someone clean Mr.
Iba's new window? It is terribly
dirty.

Guillaume is still in Holland, so
he can finish his study in art.
Julia said her father is a Lino
type-Operator (printer) and prints
publications, school newspapers.
and commercial work. His work
was said to be similiar to the
kind of work he did in Holland.
"I'm so glad that we moved
to Ashland," replied Julia. "It's
so beautiful here and I just love
small cities."
She likes the mountains, valleys,
and lakes, and says it's so much
different than Holland. Despite
the differences she still likes the
big city of Amsterdam, with it's
museums, real old churches and
houses dating back to the 16th
and 17th century.
Julia said the reason for moving
to America, was that Holland
became too crowded.
According to Julia school is
much different in Holland than
in America. She says in Holland
you can't pick your own subjects
like we do here. They have fifteen
subjects all together, and are
required to take four languages.
World history, and Holland
history.
Julia thinks school is so much
easier here, especially because we
can pick our own subjects, and she
says we don't have very much
homework.
"I like Ashland High School
very much," comments Julia.
"Especially the students and
teachers. '
The Knies family have traveled
a great deal. They went from
Holland to France, England, Ire
land, and then to America on the
boat. It took them ten days, and
they all enjoyed every minute of
the excitement. They arrived in
New York on May 1, 1961, where
they took the train to Portland,
Oregon. They then came to Ash
land.
Julia's last words were,
"I love everything here."
