Contagious Plague
Hits Ashland High
By Mel Clements
A great plague has fallen on
Ashland High School. This plague
is not only contagious to the AHS
student body but also to the
entire community. The disease is
not carried by rats as in the
"black plague." Instead it is ear
ned Dy .small Dugs, lilterDugs.
Yes, the great plague is lit
tering. Waste papers and trash
are found not only in the halls,
but also in drinking fountains,
stri-ets, yards, and virtually everywhere!
Students, arise! A war must
be waged against this terrible
disease which ihas infiltrated our
school. If, by chance when you
are venturing down the halls,
you see a litterbug, join the fight
step on him!

The Story of Christmas
And it came to pass in those days, that there
went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all
the world should be taxed (And this taxing was
first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)
And all went to be taxed, every one into his own
city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out
of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, unto the city
of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he
was of the house and lineage of David) to be taxed
with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
And so it was, that, while they were there, the days
were accomplished that she should be delivered. And
she brought forth her first-born son, and wrapped
him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger;
because there was no room for them in the inn.
And there were in the same country shepherds
abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock
by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon
them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about
them; and they were sore afraid. And the angel
said unto them, "Fear not; for, behold, I bring you
good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all
people. For unto you is born this day in the city I D Aerkll ifrinnc
of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And IvwSUlU IOn
this shall be a sign unto you: Ye shall find the babe
wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger"
And suddenly there was with the angel a
multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and
saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth
peace, good will toward men."
And it came to pass, as the angels were gone
away from them into heaven, the shepherds said
one to another, "Let us now go even unto Bethlehem,
and see this thing which is come to pass, which the
Lord hath made known unto us."
And they came with haste, and found Mary,
and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger. And
when they had seen it, they made known abroad
the saying which was told them concerning this
child. And all they that heard it wondered at those
things which were told them by the shepherds.

Who Am I?
By Mel Clements
I am in a very embarrassing
situation. My color is a brilliant
red because of my embarrassment
at being so loaded when people
visit the school. Every day more
and more of a strain is being
put on me and it is not very
often that the strain is lightened.
Who am I? I am the "lost and
found" table in the office.
A quick glance at me will dhow
a ream of paper, one notebook,
three portfolios, and two books
Although the average visit of an
article is about four days, I have
one friend who has worn out his
welcome by staying six weeks
This neglect of your property has
shown me that there is a lack of
responsibility at AHS.
To overcome this lack of
responsibility you, the student,
must first unload this burden
of misplaced articles that you
have bestowed on me. Then you
must see to it that I am kept
clean of any future misplaced
books, portfolios, pencils, pens,
and papers.
Then my color will not be
so bright red the next time you
see me.
VANITY FAIR
Bong, Bong, Bong. And as.
that twelfth bell .rings on the
night of December 31, 1964, you
cross your fingers, toes, and
eyes while solemnly pledging
your New Year's resolutions.
If this New Year's eve is like
that of last year, the foresaid
scene will be enacted by countless
AHS students in their attempts
to eliminate some of their faults
in the coming year.
Resolutions made last year by
students ranged from "to stop
chasing boys" to "to stop chasing
iris depending on the sex
questioned and from "getting to
bed early" to "not being tardy
for school." But by far the most
common promise concerned the
old gravel grinder," getting better
rades. Better than three out of
four of those questioned said, to
some effect, that they wanted to
get better marks on their report
card.
Wrhile resolution making is
generally thought of as individual
thing, (so you can break them
without anyone else knowing),
there were two girls who made
their promises together so that
neither one could Oheat on her
self. The resolutions weren't too

PLAY CAST AWARDS
DIRECTOR WITH PLAQUE
Mrs. Lucy S u s e e, Ashland
High School English teacher
and director of the senior class
play, was presented with a plaque
at the last pep assembly. Jon
Roberson, senior class president,
presented the plaque to Mrs.
Susce on behalf of the entire cast
and production crew. The plaque
was awarded to Mrs. Susee out
of appreciation for the work she
did on tfee play.
can hardly tell you have it on.
Here and there, at the eyes or
nails, you can add a light touch
of gold. The new party make-up
is most dazzling when you apply
it just once-over-brightly for a
beautiful, natural look.
Lipstick Goes Soft
The basic look is radiantly
feminine and gentle. The lipline
is soft: apply color with your
little finger not directly from
your lipstick tube. Sharp lines
anywhere are out of key. Lips
shine in candleglow colors, cop
pery pinks and tawny corals, the
new popular beiges and golden
peach tones. Some lipsticks have
irridescence blended right in,
others can be highlighted with a
frosted topcoat or lipgloss.
Subtle Eyes
Brows, unless tihey are fade
away, are unoolored. Eye make
up starts with a jeweled touch
of colored shadow. The new golds
come in cream, in a tube, in
sticks, in a tiny cake that you
apply with a damp sponge, and
compacts of pressed powder.
Eyes are defined with brown
liner, lashes are given lightest
fluttering with brown liner, lashes
are given the lightest fluttering
with brown mascara.
A Simple Hair-do
A simple schoolgirl hair-do
gives the Christmas look a special
kind of polish. Hair is prettiest
when it's softly styled, reflecting
light in every silky line. Brush,
brush, brush a hundred times
every night for highlights, and be
sure to shampo hair shiny clean
before eaoh party.
word "boy" was heard several
times.
An old fact was that the great
majority of boys never bothered
to make resolutions while most
of the girls questioned said they
had in some way or another.
To those of you planning to
make a go of it this year, just
one thing to remember, 99 per
cent of those questioned didn't
keep thir resolutions over two
weeks. Will you?
