    Traditional Appearance
Band Plays At Berkeley
Ashland High School's Grizz
ly marching band participated
in the annual University of
California Band Day held last
weekend in Berkeley. Over
5,500 students from 70 Califor
nia and Oregon high schools
participated.
Before departing for Band
Four Girls Travel
On Heritage Tour
Four AHS seniors particpated
in the annual American Heri
tage summer tour sponsored by
the American Heritage Asso
ciation.
Linda Cannon took the five
week tour which includes travel
through Canada. Susan Beecher,
Sally Rountree, and Janet
Thompson went on the three
week trip.
The tour, which is aimed at
giving students a first-hand look
at American history, was at
tended by 160 high school stu
dents from Oregon and Wash
ington. It included stops at such
historical sights as Williams
burg, Jamestown, and Phila
delphia. Although the tour was con
cerned with history, some of
the participants found them
selves involved in current
affairs while in New York City
and Washington, D. C. One
group sat in on the first day of
Senator Dodd's hearings. An
other group listened to Sena
tors Robert and Teddy Kennedy
during a NATO hearing on the
disarmament of Germany.
Fun Side
All the representatives stress
ed that the trip was not all
serious. Sally Rountree still
shudders as she recalls the
problems caused with eight
girls in a single room at the
hotel in Washington. Janet
Thompson remembers her be
wilderment when cannons fired
as she walked past the White
House. She explained, "I
thought it was being attacked,
but it was a salute for some
one." Traditions Greet

Day activities, the band and ma
jorettes, assisted by the Ash
land High Flag Girls, presented
a half-time show at the Ash
land Red Bluff football game.
The show, entitled "March
King," featured march selec
tions by John Phillip Sousa. An
added attraction was a major
ette duet which was performed
while the band played "King
Cotton."
Travel To Berkeley
After dinner in Red Bluff,
the three buses chartered by
the band and flag girls traveled
to Berkeley where they began a
long day of activities. Saturday
morning was entirely devoted to
rehearsals. Noon featured a
salute to the visiting bands by
the host Cal marching band.
Shortly after lunch, thousands
of uniformed bandsmen, flag
girls, songleaders, and major
ettes hiked up the hill to the
University's stadium. At half
time of the California-Pittsburgh
game, the combined
bands and performing groups
presented a gigantic half-time
show.
The band then proceeded to
Teachers Tour, Study
While many Ashland High
School faculty members spent
spare summer hours at home
conserving energy for the com
ing school year, others partici
pated in brain-stimulating edu
cational institutes, and still
others found themselves in the
role of the typical American
tourist.
Maureen Smith's summer in
cluded touring Oregon with her
parents who were visiting from
Kansas.
Science and Math
Among those deciding to
stimulate their thinking pro
cesses were several other AHS
teachers including Mr. Lance
Locke, Mr. John Barlow, and
Mr. George Keil who attended

San Francisco. After checking
in at the Hotel Sutter, students
were free to explore the down
town San Francisco area and
Chinatown. During this time the
band members had an oppor
tunity to go shopping and sight
seeing. Many students discov
ered little shops where they
could buy souvenirs and have
their portraits drawn.
Fisherman's Wharf
On Sunday the buses pro
ceeded to Fisherman's Wharf.
Students also visited the Aquar
ium and museum in Golden
Gate Park before leaving for
the long trip home. Students
were required to attend class on
Monday.
The expense of the trip was
the responsibility of each band
member and chaperone. How
ever, students are earning reim
bursement through the band's
annual community birthday
calendar project.
The Band's trip to the Band
Day event will be this year's
major appearance for the group.
Each year the organization
makes one such trip including
the traditional visit to San
