Page 4 ROGUE NEWS WED.. NOV. 25, 1970 Sours Come To Ashland From Bosporus Shores If You Dare by Larry Taylor The late French President Charles de Gaulle once stood within 20 feet of two Ashland High students. This was only one of the many unique experiences of senior Jan Sours and her brother Dave, a sophomore, during their stay in Istanbul, Turkey. Jan and Dave arrived in Istanbul in September, 1968, and spent ten months there. Their father, Dr. James Sours, was on an exchange program between the University of Iowa and the University of Istanbul. They came to Ashland when he received the position of President of Southern Oregon College. While in Turkey, the Sours lived about 500 yards from a cattle -fortress guarding the Bosporus Straits, the gateway to the Black Sea. Every day they saw Russian ships pass by. One of the things that surprised Jan and Dave was the number of Americans they saw in Europe. They met one family when they were buying an automobile at the Volkswagen works in Germany, and later found that they were also living in Istanbul. They noted the differences between Istanbul (a major world seaport of about 2 million people) and small Turkish villages. Istanbul is "...really cosmopolitan." Also, they compared it to American cities, in that it is "alot more liberal" than the surrounding countryside. As far as school went, Dave attended the Robert College Community School, a branch of Robert College, the oldest American college outsidethe United States. Since there was no girls' school for Jan to attend, she studied American History at Robert College, French at the Community School, took a correspondence course in Algebra, and spend the rest of her time at a Turkish school called Esenis. wkklll Ashland General Hardware Sporting Goods Tools - Plumbing & Electrical Paints We give S&H Green Stamps 90 NORTH PIONEER ASHLAND Enjoy Snuffy's Snack Bar By Denise Balog and Kacey MacGraw Article II Here we sit, in deep thought, pondering the question of what are the advantages concerning Snuffy's Snack Bar at Ashland High School. After extensive meditation, we came up with the following three problems along with their solutions. First, there is the problem of wanting to fill your stomach up with nourishing, hot food. Where, other than at the A.H.S. cafeteria can you get delicious food items such as; fishwiches, grilled cheese and bacon bits, korn dogs, tomato and vegetable soups, tamales, chow mein, and none other than those vitamin building green beans. These are just a few of the "HOT" foods available at non-inflation prices. Secondly, for those A.H.S. students on diets, dessert items are available for thosd who feel like going off their diets for approximately 45 minutes. Cake, brownies, cream pies, puddings, and turnovers are just five of the most tempting items JAN AND DAVt SOURS came to Ashland last year when their father Dr. James Sours was appointed President at Southern Oregon College at Snuf's Bar. But, where would the cafeteria be without such "goodies" as jello, cottage cheese and fruit balls, canned peaches and pears, salads such as macaroni, potato and tossed green and seedy, red watermelon. Third, and last of all, there are five, computer -type machines with your favorite candy bars, soft drinks, ice cream bars, potato chips and multi-flavored life-savers, s at the far end of the cafeteria. Such cavity and calorie inducing items can become disasterous to any student with a set of beautiful, white teeth and a shapely body. In conclusion, we would like to say that for those students that are genuine cop-outs with 35 cents in their pockets, Lincoln grade school can provide a nourishing, hot, lunch where you can go back for seconds, thirds, fourths, fifths, etc., etc., etc. (Try doing this at Snuffy's Snack Bar with good ol' George Findley watching, we'll bet 10 to 1 that you end up with a sore behind )s RUGS - CARPETS I CLEANERS & I LAMPS - DESKS LAUNDRY PHONE 482-2281 Serving Ashland Fast friendly service For Over 70 Years I46S Siskiyou Blvd. at Hwy. 66 ASHLAND SANITARY SERVICE 62 Eott Moin B,LL'S MODE 0'DAY COLLEGE 66 LADIES' FINE 1515 Siskiyou BWd.

This project was quite successful. The class winning the penny drive received 25 of the total earnings. Low and behold, the sophomore class of AHS walked away with first prize.

Drama Guild On December 11 and 12 the drama guild is planning to give performances of the play, "The Importance of Being Earnest." It is a good play and has humorous incidents throughout it. Honor Society During Homecoming week the Honor Society sold Ashland Grizzly pennants. They are trying to raise money for a possible trip this spring, and under the able leadership of a real brain they just might accomplish their goal. Spanish Club On November 2 the Spanish Club had a taco sale! This sale was to help promote spirit for Homecoming and also to earn some "mula" for the club. No textbooks!! However, the new Humanities course is conducted through selected readings, discussions, and guest speakers. The new one-semester course, under the direction of Mr. David Wight, will b: offered second period next semester. The tentative program of the course is to take a broad view of man; man in relation to himself, to others, to the arts, and to society. The class reads selected literary works ranging from Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman to Joseph K rut en's critical essay "Is Our Common Man Too Common." The selections are then discussed to the depth warranted by student interest and time. Written work for the course amounts to a few "informal quizzes" and several semi-formal papers. The remainder of the course is supplemented with speeches given by experts in related fields. The class draws speakers from the school, college, and community. The Humanities class recently read Tennessee Williams' The Glass Menagerie and saw the play at the new Angus Bowmer theater. The class also attended the symposium "Liberation: a search for values" which was sponsored by Southern Oregon College. As a supplement to the unit on personal identity, ministers spoke to the class on such topics as "Christian Conversion" and "Man's Relationship with God." While studying man in relation to society, it is hoped that a lawyer will speak on the legal procduures for minors.
