MAY II. 1971 For Coming Year prft Counseling Center New Officers Reaveal Plans Advises Ashland Students iiy Connie Bulkley "Power to the people" seems to be a common goal towards which the newly elected student council will work in the coming year. The phrase is not meant as literally as John Lennon intended it. When interviewed most of the new officers indicated they would like to see the council in its proper perspective as the voice of the students. They were asked questions concerning what they wish the student council to students and student action.

To find out, he need only visit the Ashland High Draft Counseling Center, lo.ated in Room 4 of the cafeteria building. The Draft Counseling Center is a new institution at Ashland High. It was started last month, with help from the Southern Oregon Draft Center people. The Ashland Center has a staff of seven students: Kevin Brown, Scott Brown, Ty Cook, Bill Ellis, Kevin Lewis, Brad Mix, and Larry Taylor. Draft counseling at the high school level is a relatively new thing. However, it is becoming increasingly important. The new lottery system calls for the drafting of 19-year-olds first, and thus creates a need for draft information for even pre-draft-age youths. A draft board is not likely to grant any special favors, so adequate knowledge of draft procedure must be available from an independent source. The Ashland High Draft Counseling Center is such a source. The idea of draft counseling is not to persuade a person to any stance on the war or the draft. Draft counseling is completley non-political. The purpose of draft counseling is to make tach person aware of his alternatives under the draft law. The Ashland High Draft Counseling Center staff has access to material through the Central Committee for Conscientious Objectors and other national organizations, the Southern Oregon Draft Center at SOC, and the University of Oregon Draft and MUltary Information Center in Eugene. Sign-up for counseling is at noon in Room 4 (George's old Study Hall), and is free of charge. The Center's staff expresses the hope that all students will take advantage of this opportunity to become better informed about this country's Selective Service law. Cindi Dale council. He also wishes for some type of open forum, even to the point of having shortened periods, and then a student council assembly. Cheerqueen Cindi Dale has activities in mind which will promote more school spirit and participation by all students. Lesli has several wishes for the inter-club council. She wants to have a bazaar-type affair by all the clubs at the beginning of the year. She hopes this would give the students insight into what clubs AHS has and the functions of each." She also wants to see more efficiency through a timetable. This would coordinate the activities and meetings of clubs to avoid conflict, which has occurred in the past. If the student council can initiate these activities- which will bring more "power to the people", something constructive might be accomplished. ) CHOLMTrC J THE ROQUE NEWS ( P"" I Editor-in-Chief Connie Bulkley Assistant Editor Kathy Nidever Business Manager Lila Lewis Advertising Lois Hill, Doyle Tabor Reporters Denise Balog, Linda Brown, Susan Dawes, Mary Hoxie, Kacey MacGraw, Ted Ncuenschwander, Jerry Scanned, Hugh Simpson, and Larry Taylor Photographer Wallcy Vait Advisor Clilford Brock Rondo BOWLING Lanes Special Bowling Prices for Students Snack Bar Open Lunch Special 50c San.
