High School News Notes presented a By CYNTHIA RUKOVINA Medford Hi teachers literally let down their hair Friday, and hilarious skit for the last regu lar pep assem bly for the year. Mimick ing the Pep team, basket b a 1 II team, coaches and referees, they entertained the student body, a c c o mpanied by an all-teach er band. The assembly gave the Black Tornado a rousing send off for the championship play offs with Crater High this week end. The first six weeks of the sec ond semester were climaxed in a flurry of exams Thursday and Friday. Tests in Social Studies, Languages, and math were given Thursday and English, com merce, and science Friday. The senior Hi-Y sponsored a dance for Medford and Crater high students after the game Sat urday night at the YMCA. Jim Pederson was chairman of the affair. Amendment Passed The Student council proposed a change to amend the Associ ated Student Body constitution last week, and the student body passed it, 651 to 72. It changed Article XII, Sec tion 3 to read: "Major awards may be awarded in minor sports under the following conditions: Tennis, first or second places in district singles meet, or first in district doubles; golf, mem ber of the winning or second place team in the State contest or member of the all-state golf team; wrestling, first or second place in district contest."

An announcement was also made this week that all interested students are invited to enter a state contest on safe driving. Contestants are to sub mit an essay on "My Code for Responsible Driving." The first prize is a $250 defense bond and the contest ends April 15.

Some people may entertain lavishly without show ing true hos pitality. Their -guests are ill at - ease and may even have a feeling of guilt about the trouble or or expense they have caused. Many people believe that the only way to show true hospital ity is to put on a show, as it were, for their guests. They work frantically to have every thing right, from ridding the house of every speck of dirt to preparing the most elaborate refreshments. Then, when their guests ar rive, they are tired, tense, 'and nervous. They are so afraid that something will go wrong that they cannot keep their attention on what their guests are saying. The result is that no one really enjoys himself. Contrast this with the ap proach of the hostess who pre pares for guests by trying to think up interesting things to talk about or to do. She has things reasonably clean and or derly, and she prepares food Easter 'Bonnets' Jiffy-crochet a pretty hat for her special Easter outfit!

By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D, she is sure her guests will en joy perhaps something differ ent, but always simple. Ready To Greet Guests Then, when the guests arrive, she is relaxed and ready to greet them with a smile. She can de vote her time to entertaining them and not feel she must hover over this or that detail of the refreshments for fear some thing will go wrong. She is able to create the impression that her guests are very welcome, that it is fun to have them, and that she has not been incon venienced either in work or money spent. One of the best ways to give guests the impression that they are truly welcome is to accept their offers of help, from putting up a card table to washing the dishes after the refreshments have been served. Guests feel guilty if they must sit by while the hostess works, and they leave with a guilty feeling when they remember the stack of dirty dishes their hostess must face after the last guest has gone. LETTERS FROM READERS Impressing Others: "What is the best way to impress others? I know boasting is quickly seen through." (A) Any attempt to impress others, regardless of how subtle it may be, is likely to be seen through just as boasting is. The best way to impress others is to be yourself and act in a friend ly, natural manner. People will be more impressed by your manner than they ever could ; I - 1 1 ' 1 De Dy anytning you saia or aia with the specific thought in mind of creating a good impression. Good impressions come mainly from sincere, natural behavior. Slapping in Public: "M? hus band slaps the children in pub lic if they are rude, impertinent. or say what he calls 'dirty words'. I have tried to explain to him that this antagonizes and embarrasses the children. His argument is that it is better to have them antagonized and em barrassed than to have people think he is a lax parent. Who is right?" (A) You are definitely right about this matter. Your husband may be creating the impression that he wants to create, namely that he is a strict disciplinarian, but most people today do not admire that type of discipline. It seems cruel to slap a child and give him no chance to ex plain or to hit back. A gentle reproof or a show of disapproval on the parent's part creates the impression that the parent is on his toes and trying to teach his children how to behave, and it does not antagonize or embarrass the children. Card Sending: "I think1 send ing cards to people on all oc casions is getting to be a racket. Do they really appreciate this?" (A) Anything that shows a person he is remembered and thought of enough to have a card sent to him inflates his ego and thus pleases him. It may be re garded as a "racket" by those who send cards just because it is the "thing to do" but most peo ple regard it as a sign of friend ship. (COPYRIGHT 1955, GENERAL FEATURES CORP.)
