% May 17, 1968 Herman creek' destination for Whitlow's hikers Whitlow’s hikers are at it again! Member of Leonard Whit low’s history class have sched uled another hike along Herman Creek trail for Sunday. According to Mr. Whitlow, the hike is planned just for fun and anyone in his classes who wants to come will be allowed to. “This is definitely, not a school sponsored activity,” commented Mr. Whitlow. “All students must furnish their own transportation and pack their own lunch.” Hikers will tramp about six miles up Herman Creek trail or, according to Mr. Whitlow, “until their feet get tired.” This is the secpond hike the class has planned this year. The last hike, a 13-mile walking tour of Eagle creek, involved nine members of the class and was held on April 6. “Because so many kids couldn’t make the last trip which we scheduled for a Saturday,” Mr. Whitlow explained, “I promised them another hike on a Sunday.” Mr. Whitlow, who was raised in the country, has enjoyed hik ing as a hobby for about five years.

After encountering many different students it is sur prising to find just how many work during the sum mer. Many girls stated that they would be working in fountains, soda jerking. Other jobs ranged from secre tarial work to key punch opera tors, and many girls are plan ning to work at the telephone company, where they receive training with pay. Three girls and four boys commented of working on ranches, as part-time hands, and enjoying the freedom of horseback riding. Eight girls and two boys will be having modeling jobs, which is not all fun and no play. Added to their statements was, “It’s more like all work and no eating.” Quite a number of boys re marked that they were going to help with supermarket work, and some added that they were going into construction work in We have the largest selects of paperbacks chairman. Other artwork ap pearing throughout the book was drawn by Mahlon Read’s art classes. Eastern Oregon. Three or four girls commented that they would be working at summer resorts, two of these in Crater Lake and one at Yellowstone National park, in Wyoming. Many different comments were received when asked why they were going to work this summer, such as, “Well, what else do you want me to do?,” and “If I don’t get a job this summer, I don’t go to college next year.” One boy added, “Well, because I don’t like to lie around all the time.” After talking to so many peo ple I found that summer jobs are almost a necessity. Some of us just need the money and some of us simply feel it our responsi bility to do something worth while with our time. Remember the old cliche, “Idle hands are devil’s tools?”, well, it’s been proven to be true. CLEANING BAR Puppets, quilt, cards given to Red Cross by Girls7 League Playing cards, donated by jun ior class Girls’ league, a quilt given by the sophomores, and puppets made by the freshmen are the service projects which will be given to Red Cross. Puppets numbering 40 were made at the home of Betsy Tur ner, freshman class Girls’ league president, on May 7. The pup pets were made of pink and green felt.
