School Mevs s MAIL TRIBUNI, Medford, Or. A Friday, Nov, 6, 1959 Jackson School The second six. weeks of school began Monday, Oct. 26. The six weeks' exams proved to us that good study habits are needed. So this six weeks, we all vow we are -to study and study. Halloween was celebrated in all rooms at Jackson school. The P. T. A. Home Room Mothers planned the parties. We had eats and played games. The parties were held the last half hour of the day. A short program was held in the auditorium. The Teacher chorus sang two numbers. A dance by "Five Spacemen" was a lot of fun. The parade of children in their Halloween costumes was fun, too. - The orange and black Hal loween signs distributed : by the Junior High students to help people who are ill was explained to all the students at Jackson school. Pat Kilby explained it to th"e three first grade classes; David Doolen, the second grades; James Douglas the third grades; and Robert Phillips,, the fourth grades. The fifth and sixth grade reading classes discussed the reason for the signs and how necessary, for all children" to observe these signs and all rules of courtesy during "trick and treat." ' Katie Cook visited all class rooms this week to explain the UNICEF program. Many children will help on this project. The second grade curricu lum party was held Oct 29 from 9 to 10:30 a. m. At this time the parents were invited to visit in, their child's class room and observe the. class in action. No special program was planned.

Wed nesday night put a "pussy footers" label on Democrats who voted for the Landrum Griffin labor reform bill. Morse, in a speech at the Labor Temple here, answered recent criticism of him by Sen. William Proxmire (D Wis.) over the labor bill. Proxmire had accused Morse of being guilty of "unbalanc ed arrogant extremism." But Morse extended his at tack to include Sen. Hubert Humphrey (D-Minn.), Sen. John Kennedy (D-Mass.), Sen. Lyndon Johnson (D-Tex.), all possible presidential hope fuls. Sought Support Morse said Kennedy mani pulated passage of the bill with an eye "toward winning support from the South at next year's Democratic con vention. "I can guarantee he won't get the nomination," Morse said. Morse referred to" Johnson as "the great horse trader and master of expediency," and said Humphrey "cut the jugular vein of labor", wh.en he stood up in the Senate and said he was - voting for the bill. Morse blasted Humphrey, Proxmire and Kennedy for telling labor leaders in Wis consin that they thought the new reform bill was bad but that they had to vote for it. They voted for it because they were afraid of being de feated in the next election, he said. Not Afraid' "But I am one politician who isn't afraid of being de feated," he added. "Proxmire came to my desk after I voted against the la bor bill and shook my hand and congratulated me for my courage and said he voted like a coward." Morse said he told Prox mire, "you accurately identi fied yourself." .
