Driving Hints Fori8,
Ashland Students
Mr. Hall, drivers education
teacher; Herb Hays, chief of
police; and Judge Cottle, judge
of the Ashland traffic court, were
interviewed by this reporter for
possible driving tips for AHS
students.
Be Cautious
Mr. Hall advises owners of
autos and motorbikes to be care
ful not to throw gravel by spin
ning their wheels. Injury will
result unless precaution is taken
on this matter.
Chief Herb Hays warns drivers
to be more observant in the
evening hours. He urged drivers
to be cautious in congested areas
after games and in school zones.
Operating Hondas
Judge Cottle reminds students
that a driver's permit is not suf
ficient to operate a Honda. Laws
governing permits state a person
18, or older must be sitting be
side the driver. Hondas are de
signed to have someone sit be
hind or in front, but not beside
the driver. Therefore, it is a
violation of the law for anyone
to operate a Honda unless he has
a driver's license.
Insurance Rates
Statistics show that rates for
an unmarried girl between ages
1720 are higher than rates for
the married girl in the same
classification. At age 21, the un
married girl receives a regular
rate.
Married boys under 21 receive
a lesser rate than unmarried boys
under 21 receive.
The following poem, written by
drivers education teacher, Mr.
Hall, illustrates the problem of
the road today:
MR. BIG DEAL
Spinning tires and turning wheels
makes one feel big
In the eyes of others, just more
graves to dig.
Crumpled steel and twisted mass,
can only mean one thing:
Just that one last fling, to play
back memories like bells
will ring.
Even though you hurt down deep
and your heart cries out within
The pain you feel way down in
side shall wipe away your grin.
For when you're standing, staring
down at a grave dug deep and
cold,
You'll wish you hadn't taken that
one last step to be big, daring,
and bold.

Math Department
Starts New Plan
Ashland High's teaching staff
in the math department was in
creased to four with the addition
of Mr. George Brady. Also in
cluded on the department's staff
are Mr. George Keil and Mr.
Robert Day, according to Mrs.
Louise Windt, head of mathe
matics at AHS.
Among the items new in the
math department are tilt
top desks, new textbooks, and an
experimental teaching plan, which
is taking place in Mrs. Windt's
room.
Mrs. Windt tried a similar pro
gram last year on a smaller scale,
and is now using it in all her
senior classes. In this new system.
no daily assignments are handed
in and the grades are based on
tests. The students are expected
to make more use of textbooks
and become less dependent on
the teacher.
At the beginning of each class.
Mrs. Wrndt goes over important
material in the day's assignments.
answer any questions, and then
lets the students study. They may
study math or any other subject.
as long as their math is finished
some other time. Students may
work alone or as part of a group.
students who had gone on to
college often return to visit high
school teachers and complain that
they are having trouble in college
because they had not learned to
study on their own or make the
most of their time. This Ls the
reason Mrs. Windt is trying the
new program.
