I would like to pass on some information about the upcoming
local and county car rallies, including a few hints to the partici
pants. The Jackson County Youth Council sponsors these rallies.
Interested persons and our school's representatives planned the
local rally. They are charging a small entrance fee to cover the
cost of a first place trophy for the pilot and navigator. The top
cars are also given the opportunity to represent AHS in the
county rally.
Individual and school team trophies are given to the winners
of the county rally. Phoenix won the team trophy last year, beat
ing teams from six other county schools. Our local rally should
provide the necessary practice to enable us to win the top trophy
this year.
Now for the helpful hints for the participants. (I speak with
the authority of experience, having learned all these tips the hard
way.) Be sure the odometer in your car works. Little tricks like
taking shortcuts or disconnecting your odometer to make up for
lost mileage usually don't work. Backing up is really much better.
Also remember the old Russian adage about never trusting a
smiling boy who is overly helpful in pointing out the way. (Little
kids can't be intimidated very easily, etiher.) Above all, never let
another rally car know you are lost. If you pass one going the
other way, smile confidently, look straight ahead, and let them
get out of sight before you turn around.
The type of car you drive doesn't matter; speed isn't im
portant. The main thing to do is follow the course exactly and
enjoy yourself.
From the Willamette Collegian comes word that Cathy Christy,
AHS alumnus, has entered still another contest. Cathy, a partici
pant in debate, leadership, and drama activities, has switched to
another field. Would you believe that she is an entrant in the
Miss Salem beauty contest? This is true. Perhaps she is trying
by another method to get into West Point again?

WITH ANNIE
In the final few weeks of
school a mad dash by clubs to
raise money takes place. With
this rush to get in those last few
projects comes a loss of ideas
for raising this money. Here are
a couple of projects used at
other west coast schools.
At Astoria High, the Girls'
League sponsored a father
daughter banquet. It was a
smorgasbord dinner costing
$1.50 a plate. The money raised
from the dinner went into club
expenses and the Girls' League
Scholarship.
Red BlufT Union High band
members sponsored a stamp
drive. The members collected
S&H Green Stamps and Blue
Chip Stamps. These were re
deemed for cash at $2.00 per
book. The money was being
raised in order for the band to
purchase new uniforms. Some
$1,600 was raised through their
stamp collection.

COME IN AND BROWSE
Will Need
by Jan Gray
When talking to people from out of town, you may have no
ticed something interesting about their opinion of our fair city.
You might have informed someone that you live in Ashland.
The reply you received probably went something like this: "What'
You live in Ashland? Why, they roll up the sidewalks at sunset!"
Well, perhaps we don't quite roll up the sidewalks (the springs
are rusty) but we come very near to doing just that. After 7:00
p.m. in Ashland you can bowl, roller skate, or swim, depending
on the weather, and of course, you can always go to a movie. On
certain selected occasions, the school gym is open for certain
organized activities. On some nights the school library is open
because students have been firmly requested not to bring their
own books to study at the "public" library.
If this statement arouses your justifiable wrath, you should
know that you are now in the position of doing something about
this miserable condition. Evidently, though, it is going to be you
that has to do it. Ashland has attempted on various occasions to
organize a teen center. At this time the idea is once again being
given a chance. If a teen center is what we want and need then
we are going to have to be the ones to help get it going.
Mike Knapp, senior class president, recently organized a com
mittee to determine what facilities are needed in a local teen
center. Mike said if interest and ideas can be developed in the
school, that federal funds may be obtained to help finance the
center.
However, if little interest is shown in the planning stages,
the project will seem doomed to failure and the idea may be
abandoned. Suggestions will be welcomed by Mike and his committee.
