John Kaegi, sophomore: "It's kind of a dumb idea, if you ask me." Karen Baker, sophomore: "It's all right, but I don't see the use of one; we've done all right with out it so far." Dave Garner, sophomore: "I don't like the idea." Kerry Lindley, sophomore: "If it's free, why not?"

The other Ashland students who comprised the delegation ware Connie Felger, Dick Knies, Mike Lundergan, Diane Williams, Caro lyn Wolfe, Sami Everett, Brian Whitham, Chris Hoberg, and Miwe Dawkins. Movie Views Who's Minding the Store? Jerry Lewis scores another one. Yes, Jerry Lewis, that madcap maniac you saw in the "Nutty Professor", has done it again in "Who's Minding the Store?" The story Isn't too important; it concerns the old story about mother not wanting daughter to marry below her station in life. Jerry Lewis plays the individual in Jove with daughter, daughter is played by Jill St. John, and mom is acted by Agnes Moore head. The picture was very funny in the sequences featuring Lewis, but dragged at times when the supporting actors took over. Among the other featured play ers was Ray Walston who played a sex-crazed office executive. Nancy Culp, who is featured as Jane Hathaway in the "Beverly Hillbillies", was a disappointment in her role as a masculine big game hunter. "Who's Minding the Store?" was a wild laugh on big business and big businessmen. Accompanying this Jerry Lewis comedy was a minor epic titled "Duel of the Titans". This picture was filmed in Italy and starred two Ameicans: Steve Reeves from the Hercules pictures and Gordon Scott who used to be in the Tarzan pictures (aahheeee, remember?) Both of these muscle-bound heroes moved through their parts with all the agility of robots. The movie concerned the found' ing of Rome but this fact wasn't brought out until the last ten minutes of the picture. A Ticklish Affair "A Ticklish Affair" was a good motion picture. It concerned Navy widow (Shirley Jones) who was raising three small sons single-handedly. Along came handsome Navy captain (Gig Young). She liked him and he liked her. The only flies in this ointment of love was that he was a Navy man who traveled-frets- base-to bers to become better acquainted with international relations and organizations. At the meeting, the students formed a model Common Market and attempted to solve the quest ion of what to trade and what tariff concessions to make if Great Britain were allowed to enter the Common Market. Out of seven possible offices and awards to be won at the annual convention, schools in Southern Oregon captured five. Jon Roberson, as mentioned previ ously, was elected state vice-pre sident. Grants Pass was voted the second most active club in the state and won an award for having the best notebook, Crater won the award for having the third best notebook, the state historian was from Medford, and a Grants Pass student was elected to the office of state secretary. The former vice-president of the state organizatin was Angus Duncan whose father is a repre sentative from this district to Congress. Are You Auto Safety Conscious? Here is a chance for the stu dents of Ashland High to prove to themselves and to everyone else that they are auto safety conscious. Besides proving a point, there are 29 cash prizes that can be won by the students in the high school Auto Safety contest sponsored by the Amer ican Motorists Insurance Com pany. There are four divisions in the contest. The first is for auto safety material printed by a school weekly or bi-monthly news paper in a series of publications during the contest period Feb ruary 24 to April 6, 1964. The second division is the same as the first except it is for non weekly publications. Division num ber three is for all other auto safety work done in school by the students. Individual student creative work is included in the fourth division. Additional details and infor mation can be obtained in Mrs. McAlaster's junior English room (29). m m Behind the Scenes: Art Service Corps When one stops to remember the work that the Art Service Corps has done, he can truly ap preciate this organization. As a comparatively new club (founded last year), the Art Ser vice Corps has contributed its services to making posters for school and social functions, doing bulletin boards for teachers, and sponsoring a campaing for stash ing the trash. This year a new program has been set up. There is a workshop and a service division. The former is to permit members to work on artwork of their own choosing; the latter is the regular part of the club that does the service projects. The A. S C. has added another feather to its cap by the Inter national Art Exhibit in the school library last fall To mention some of the countries represented in this exhibit were Japan, South Viet nam, India, Holland, and Turkey. Behind the scenes, the Art Service Corps functions quietly but its services can be appreciated by all. Hats off to the Art Service Corps! The above students have been chosen for the All-State Band or the chorus. They are, from left to right, Charles Moore, band; Bill Alner, chorus; Marcy Tretsven, band; and John Reid, band. Not pictured is Steve Chapman, All-State Orchestra. What Is Happiness? Discussed at Seminar Happiness was the topic of ' Aristotle's views on happiness. discussion at the February 10 Humanities Seminar meeting which was held at the home of Trudee Lewis. The students prepared for this seminar by reading sections from Aristotle s Nicomachean Ethics which attempts to define hap piness and to show what consti- tues a happy man. An optional tplprtinn wu an article in the Saturday Evening Post, "December 21 issue, which asserts that no one has the right to happiness at the expense of other people. Before the discussion started, an Encyclopedio Britannica film was shown which concerned BAND PRESENTS CONCERT On Thursday, February 8, the Ashland High School Band pre sented a special concert for the student body. The band, directed by Mr. Raoul Maddoz, played a selection of marches, Latin Amer ican numbers, and modern serious music. This is the first time the band has put on a special concert for the students and Mr. Maddox commented that he thought the audience was one of the best the band had ever performed for. Also at the performance, Mr. Maddox introduced the mem bers of the student body who were chosen for alUtate band. orchestra, and chorus. Charles Moore, John Reid, and Marcy Tretsven will play in the band while Bill Alner and Steve Chap man were chosen for the chorus and orchestra, respectively. The most important question discussed "vas whether happiness is the same for all people. Most of the students felt that happiness is different for each person, thus refuting Aristotle's assertion that happiness is the same for all people whether they realize it or not. To support their argument, the students referred to Happiness Is A Warm Puppy. A second " question discussed was whether a person has a right to happiness, even at the expense of other people. It was generally agreed that true happiness is not possible when other people are injured. Yell Queen Kay Newton Interviewed by Reporter At one time or another almost every girl has wanted to be on the- rally squad and receive the recognition and popularity that seems to automatically come with cheerleading. Kay Newton, Ash land High's Yell Queen, gave another side to the picture when she was interviewed by this reporter for the Rogue News. One of the first questions asked was why she had to wear a brace on her knee while yell leading. Kay replied that once when she was practicing the jplits, she threw her knee out of place and if she doesn't wear the brace her knee might "pop" out if place, thus showing one of the hazards of cheer-leading. There is more to cheer-leading than getting out in front of the student-body and leading the yells. It takes hard work and a lot of practice in order to have a good yell squad. Kay said that the cheerleaders have four practices after school during the week for about an hour. They also had practices during the summer. Greatest Responsibility According to Kay, "the greatest responsibility of a cheerleader is to remain peppy and energetic all the time." And as yell queen Kay has many duties to perform: organizing yells, representing the yell squad in Student Council, organizing pep assemblies, and many other smaller duties. When asked if she remembers any embarrasing incidents which she wished she could forget, Kay Ideal Boy A composite of an ideal boy at Ashland High might include the following boys: Personality Dave Lohman Smile Clyde Nelson Dimples Glen Smith Eyes Greg Sorenson Intelligence Tim Thompson Laugh Ron Le Blanc Build Dean Samuelson Hair Roland Sturdevant Sense of humor John Yaple Pep Rick Oliver An Ideal Girl A composite of an ideal Ash land High girl might be: .

In a loud Sense of humor .... Charla Murphy clear voice I yelled 'O.K. Let's Pep Kay Newton da a yell called Beat the Grizzlies Complexion Cindy Forga I My face turned about five shades of red!" Advantages of Cheerlcading But, according to Kay, there are many rewarding moments in cheerleading "like times when be fore the pep assembly, the school doesn't seem to have any spirit and you ask them to do a yell for the team and they really yell. It makes me feel good and very happy. I also get to meet a lot of people," continued Kay, "and I enjoy meeting and talking with others." After five years of cheerleading Kay says that there are many advantages which outweigh the disadvantages. When she was asked if she had any time for other activities, the yell queen replied, "Yes, I enjoy dances and parties. I also enjoy knitting, cooking, and snow skiing, even though I'm not very good." As she is a senior, this will be Kay's last year of yell-leading. She has demonstrated her talents and abilities as a good cheer leader all through high school and seems to have enjoyed every minute of it.
