Several people around Ashland High School were recently asked
what they felt should be done about the annual Rogue Valley smog
problem. These are some of the findings:
Connie Bulk ley, junior: With man's ability to
land on the moon, it seems logical that some
other method could be developed than
smudging. Fruit growers argue the cost of
installing new methods, yet I think something
else could be developed saving money, by not
having all the manpower cost today, as well as
the environment.

Robert Hutchison, senior: It dulls the shine
on my car.
Elaine Duffy, secretary: It is so much better
than it was fifteen years ago, you wouldn't
believe it. Speak to the weatherman for warmer
weather. Cars are producing more smog than
any of these orchards.
Leslie Grimm, senior: The old smudge pots
should be replaced by the new orchard heaters
that don't cause so much smog.
Jerome Higgins, teacher: Being that they're
(the orchard owners) are part of the
community they should take action. . . possibly
working with the species of pear that is not
susceptible to cold or if artificial methods are
necessary, develop those that are less polluting.

Bill Mearns, dean of boys: They should do
more experimenting with new ideas on
eliminating some of the harmful particles in the
air to animal and plant life. But this is going to
take money and time. It also takes willing
people. People have to want to do this before it
will become successful.

television stations have can

commercials filmed by actor
Tony Curtis because of his
conviction in London Monday
for possession of marijuana.
person's handwriting and the
relation to personality. Janet
Insley and Rob Merriman
stepped down from the audience
to demonstrate their script on a
blackboard.
Bateman analyzed the writing
and gave a short talk on how
writing is affected by both
outside and inner influences. He
cited several examples and
pointed out that an experienced
graphologist can tell the age, sex,
hair color and eye color simply
from a person's handwriting.
At the age of twelve Bateman
took up ventriloquism though he
had to offset his problem of
stuttering. Also a poor writer as
a child, the correction of this led
to Bateman's interest in
graphology.
