lack of materials, the city had been making definite strides forward.
The average citizen feels possibly that not enough changes are being
made for the better in the community, but as indicated by the Mayor s
report, daily changes are being made and these are definite improve­
ments.

and their coach Al Simpson, the story was an Associated Press story
concerning A l’s potentialities as a coach to replace Tex Oliver. We re
glad Al has a winning football team. But we'd sure hate to see him
leave Southern Oregon college. W e’d like to see some more winning
ball clubs come out of SOC, and with Al and the same ball club back
on the campus next year the possibilities -that the SONs will continue
to be, one of the nations leading ball clubs are very, very good.
