By Sharon Oviatt

To anyone interested in music,
the following item may prove
amusing.
Mr. Raoul Maddox, band
director, has made himself a
musical instrument. Mr. Maddox
found a piece of rubber hose.
Experimenting, he rolled the hose
up and tied it together.
Using the metal piece of the
hose as a mouthpiece, he dis
covered he could make music.
Members of the band which
have heard Mr. Maddox play his
instrument agree that he it sounds
something like a french horn,
and plays in the key of F.
LIKE TO PLAY BASEBALL?
A summer baseball program
may be intiated for high
school students. The American
Legion hopes to buy equipment
for boys between the ages of
fifteen and eighteen. If there
is enough support for the team,
inner-school competition will
begin. This program is for AIX
boys, including students with
summer jobs.
The Legion needs money,
though. The Legion will raise
the money through magazine
subscriptions. If any student
or their parents wants to renew
a subscription or add a new
one, contact the American
Legion. At no additional cost
the Legion will send the sub
scription in and take part of
the companies' profit. In this
way a student can help the
American Legion and himself.

Hall of the American Legion,
Ashland branch. The phone
number is 482-2224. The hours

Ron Willock is the happy
owner of the newest car (owned
by a student) in the parking
lot. It is het yellow and white
1955 Chevrolet two door sedan.
Ron's "bomb" is powered by a
small 323 cubic inch Chevrolet
engine. The engine looks "sleepy"
from it's outward appearance, as
the valves are covered with stock
265 value covers. The carburetor
that powers this machine is a
stock two-barrel. Transmission
wise Ron's "sleeper" is pushed
by a stock 3-speed with column
linkage. The rear end is stock,
but may be changed in the near
future, according to Ron.
The interior in this "swift"
little Chevrolet is stock. The
headliner is pure white leather,
in immaculate condition, with
seats covered with a green and
white leather. Ron installed beige
carpets on the floor to add to
the inside appearance of his car.
He does have a lot of trouble
keeping it clean, though. "It's
all due to the 'fellows' and their
oversized feet!" exclaims Ron.
Ron was asked if he was going
to make any radical changes on
his Chevy. "I might change the
tires from 7" 10"-15' to 8"-15'
in the back, and 5" 90"-15' in the
front to give a lower gear ratio
to the rear end."
Ron is very proud of his car
and he certainly has every right
to be.
Five flag girls will travel to San Francisco soon. The girls from
left to right are Nola Neilson, Barbara Lawrence, Bev Hartford,
Sandy Roberts, and Billie Jean Collins.

Juniors Sponsor
Annual Dance
Dogpatch U.S.A. temporarily
expanded its city limits to the
Ashland High cafeteria November
7. The junior class sponsored the
annual Sadie Hawkins dance.
A live band highlighted the
activities. Hay and old clothes
were the main features of the
decorations. Marryin' Sam had a
busy evening as couples lined up
to get "hitched."
Prizes were awarded for Mr.
and Mrs. Dogpatch, Daisy Mae
and Little Abner, and the best
costume. John Roberson and
Kandy Korthese took the honors
of being Mr. and Mrs. Dogpatch.
Mike Mcquire was Little Abner.
Linda Nickelson was Daisy Mae.
The prize for the best costume
was won by the junior class
president, Terry Skibby.
A flash of color in action
was the scene the flag girls
created at Ashland High's
Homecoming last weekend as
they took part in the half time
activities. The group made their
debut in their new red and
white uniforms as they did
their part to pay tribute to the
theme of the Graduate.
