To the Editor:
On accepting the nomination for
the Medford district I wish to let
the voters know my position in rela
tion to the schools and to the present
administration.
X had no Intention of running for
nomination as a director, although
numerous people bad requested me to
do so. Several petitions were put
Into circulation without my knowing
It. A week ago Monday morning I
was called and told that more than
enough names had; been secured to
nominate me. At that time I still re
fused to run. Later-petitions were
presented with more than five times
the number of signatures required.
I looked them over carefully and
fund the names of leading school pa
trons and taxpayers of the district.
It wss then that my civic pride
prompted me to accept their nomina
tion. My greatest desire Is to do my
best for our schools. .
I feel proud for having had a hand
In making our schools what they are.
I was chairman of the school board
that elected Mr. Hedrlck superinten
dent. I sponsored him, and am sin
cerely sorry that he has been listen
ing to etreet talk, as I a mnot an
antl-adminlstratlonlst. I have no set
program. If elected I would try to
meet the Issues with Judgment and
common sense. I realize these are
trying times for us all, but X believe
things are on the upward trnd and
that better days are ahead.

mouth; no hard and soft places.
It must have the right flavor and aroma
the right amount of aromatic Turkish.
It must reach you just as fresh as if you
