and senior high school.
Preparations have, been underway
for the past week and many of the
teachers are already back in the city,
working odt last minute details un
der the leadership of Superintendent
E. H. Hedrlck. Teachers were hired
last spring for )ust four and a half
months of school and no new state
ment has been forthcoming regard
ing a continuation of the year to the
normal period of time.
It is ail up to the taxpayers, has
been the constant reply of the board
of directors to persons, asking "how
much school will Medford have this
year?" v.
Taxes Mean Schools
The last Investigation of the tax
rolls revealed a long list of delin
quencies still on the hpoks. While
great anxiety has been expressed by
parents regarding the situation, tax
. payers still appear reluctant and the
period of school is still undetermined.
Superintendent Hedrlck; however.
In discussing the situation yesterday,;
stated that the board is still hopeful
and the members feel that Medford i
taxpayers will not permit the schools j
to close at the end of the four and ;
a half months period. If the money
Is forthcoming at that time contracts
will be signed with the teachers for
another four and a half months. The
short period contracts signed to pro-1
tect the district, will In no way In
terfere with a continuation of school
at the expiration of that time.
A few changes in the teaching staff
. have been made following elections
last sprint;. The list of teachers will

Attendance Problematical
Mo prediction regarding enrollment
was made yesterday by Superinten
dent Hedrlck. who stated It was a dif
ficult thing to judge. He added, how
ever, that the number would prob
ably be fully up to last year's figure.
Economies have been effected in
all grades from the fourth . to the
twelfth and as a result the students
In these grades will have longer daily
schedules In order to enable fewer
instructors to carry on the work.
These schedules will be announced
Friday.

WASHINGTON (UP) Parent
Teacher association leaders from all
parts of the country will gather here
for the semi-annual meeting of the
board of managers of the National
Congress of Parents and Teachers,
Sept. 18 through Sept. 21,
Presidents of state congresses 41
parents and teachers, national com
mittee chairmen, and national offi
cers, who comprise the board of man
agers, will discuss plans and policies
affecting approximately 30.000 parent-teacher
associations during the
coming school year. , .
Much of the time probably will be
spent in discussion of the part which
the national organisation can play in
defense of the country's educational
system against the trend to cut down
school costs because of decreased re
ceipts In communities and states,
- "Paced with shortening school
terms, closed schools, overcrowded
class rooms, and thousands of school
children being deprived of school op
portunities," a statement from the as
sociation's headquarters says, "educa
tion's lay leaders in- the parent
teacher movement are urging vigorous
action to maintain school standards."
18 Forests Get 8 Million
SAN FRANCISCO (UP) More than
W. 500 ,000 will be spent during the
next two years for maintenance of 18
national forests In California and
southwestern Nevada, according to S.
B. Snow, chief of the Federal Region
al Forest bureau here. Used to pur
cl'ase equipment and to pay wages,
these funds will provide 1,500.000
"man days" of labor, or the employ
ment of 10.000 men at a substantial
wage for 150 days each, Snow said.

ADRIENNE'S
ASHLAND (Spl.) Ashland's pub
lic schools opened Labor day, with an
enrollment that compared favorably
with that of last year, according to
Supt. George A. Brlocoe, who reported
the enrollment as follows:
. Senior high, 330.
junior high, 290.
Washington. 235. .
Lincoln, 283.
This makes a total of 1038 today.)
The enrollment last year was slight
ly higher, but this Is probably ex
plained by the fact that some stu
dents are stilt on vacation trips with
their parents. Eventually the enroll
ment will no doubt equal that of last
year as in the Senior and Junior high
schools the enrollment was more than
on the second day last year, while In
the Washington and Lincoln schools
the enrollment was less.
