1973 rolled in with the same
excitement that 1972 left with.
As much a part of the beginning
of the "New Year" as parties and
the Rose Bowl, are resolutions.
Resolutions are those promises
that we make to ourselves and
those around us that are usually
broken before Valentine's Day.
Members of the campus were
asked to respond to the state
ment: "In 1973, 1 resolve to . . ."
Here are a few of them:
Linda Collins: ". . . make the best
of my last five months at Ash
land High."
P.E. teacher Dick t opple: ". . .
win twenty-five basketball
games this year."
Doug Engle: ". . . purchase a
bird sanctuary for lonely
hawks."

details of her application which
involved several interviews and a
selection as one of two applicants
from Ashland. "I filled out
hundreds of applications for AFS
international," said Linda. Once
her applications to the interna
tional chapter of AFS had been
accepted, the next step was
finding a compatable family for
her to stay with.
Her new family is made up of
six persons, including four
"sisters." Two of Linda's
"sisters" are away at college.
Linda is used to having four
brothers, two of which are away
from home.
Reactions to Selection
Asked about first reactions to
her selection, Linda said, "I was
jumping all over the place and
Mom was standing there crying."
She added that her parents were
happy to have her go because it
was what she wanted.
Arriving in New Zealand in
what will be summer there,
Linda will begin classes on
January 30. She does not know
yet what courses she will be
taking. The school she will be
attending has a student body of
about 400 with students ranging
in age from 12-18.
Upon returning next January,
Linda plans to spend some time
at home before enrolling in
spring term at Northwest
Christian College in Eugene.
Asked if she had any mis
givings about her trip Linda
shook her head and replied with a
very definite "Nope!"

Metal Spinning
Art Flourishes
by Steve Schmelzer
Some people just don't have
any concern for traditional crafts
and arts, but the crafts class
does.
The crafts class is practicing
the seldom seen art of metal
spinning.
Metal spinning is used to make
bowls, vases, and dishes. Ashland
High teacher Keith Mobley said,
"There is so much a person can
do by metal spinning if he's
creative. A well known example
of metal spinning is cymbals."
The metal spinning is done by
taking an 18 gauge aluminum
sheet and spinning it in a form
and then air spinning it until it's
shaped as desired. This process
takes about 10 to 15 minutes.
After the metal is formed into
the desired shape it can be
decorated by making designs on
it through acid etching and using
a jeweler's saw.
Hi-Q Defeated
Undefeated Ashland played
unbeaten Madras on Hi-Q, the
quiz show for high school stu
dents. Madras came out on top by a
score or 200 to 135.
The four man team consisted of
Rosario DeLaTorre, Peggy
Haines, Joseph Hawk, and Paul
Tumbleson.
