Allocation Approved
TVio PAmmnnitv fluVi Vinarrl
of governors approved a mo
tion to allot $75 from club
funds for purchase of recrea
tion equipment for a program
this summer. Following sug

ber, and Mayor Arthur Mac
Kintosh, the group decided to
submit definite recommenda
tions to the school board and
city council for recreation
funds. This request would be
included in the city and
school district budgets for the
next fiscal year starting July
1.
Mrs. J. D. Lubbers, chair
man of the recreation com
mittee, said her group, con
sisting of Mrs. Ed Howard and
Mrs. Lloyd Hale, decided to
start with a small recreation
program this summer. This
would include girls' baseball,
outdoor volleyball, croquet,
crafts, horseshoes, and shuffle
board. A local store has offer
ed a 15 per cent discount on
any recreation equipment the
club purchases, Mrs. Lubbers
reported.
Mrs. Lloyd Nikodym, repre
senting the volunteer firemen,
said- her organization is con
sidering donating some recrea
tion equipment. Harris said
possibly school equipment
might be used if some adult is
made responsible for it.
Many Volunteers
Mrs. Lubbers said many
people have volunteered to
help with the program. One
person will be made respon
sible for each activity and
will list what equipment is
needed, she explained. The
recreation committee still
needs someone to supervise
the activities to be conducted
inside the community club
house. The committee now is mak
ing a list of how many women
are interested in helping and
what hours they would be
available. The program must
be worked out also with the
various church vacation Bible
schools so the two will not
conflict, Mrs. Lubbers pointed
out.
The board of governors also
voted to buy immediately a
first aid kit for the commu
nity hall and a fire extinguish
er. Harris said he would leave
the key to the building in the
drugstore so anyone wanting
to get inside can pick it up
there.
The volunteer firemen will
be allowed to use the club
house for their meetings in
exchange for some janitorial
work. Mrs. Nikodym said the
group has 26 active members,
too many to meet at the
various homes as they are now
doing.

The Welcome Mat
It takes all kinds, so the
saying goes, and most of them
eventually visit the news
room. It's just a matter of
time.
v Most people who climb the
stairs to the Mail Tribune's
second floor news room (we
have a splendid view over
looking a used car lot) are
average, reasonably complex-
f r e e individuals. But the
others, usually paying their
first visits, fit into any of
three categories - Stalkers,
Tremblers or Pals.
First there's The Stalker.
He (or sometimes she) takes
long, firm strides to a speci
fic desk, settles his business
unsmilingly, pivots and stalks
out the same way he stalked,
in. This individual, for some
unknown reason, is actually
very much on the defensive.
Next comes The Trembler.
She (or sometimes he) opens
the door timidly and ducks
behind the partition. Minutes
later she peeks out, then leaps
approximately three feet in
the air when a staffer says
"May I help you?"
Last, but certainly not
least, is The Pal. He barges
through the door (occasional
ly opens it first), displays at
least 75 white, pearly teeth
has cheery greetings and pats
on the back for everyone in
the room, and always wants to
see the managing editor. More
often than not, he's some sort
of public relations or publici
ty man.
Incidentally, The Stalker
has one other identifying fea
ture.
He's the one who leaves by
the wrong door and winds up
in the men s room.
An Ashland resident
named Homer Hugo Elhart
filed a report with police
last week after having a
minor traffic accident. A
very minor accident, in fact.
He estimated damage to
his car at 20 cents.
We have a new correspond
ent in Yreka, Mrs. Ruth Mid
dleton, and she's behind the
increasing number of Yreka
datelines appearing on this
page.
Persons who live in Mrs.
Middleton's area and have
story information can call her
at Victor 2-2807.
Then again, she's doing
such a good job of covering
the sheriff's office and police
department that you might
have better luck via another
means of communication.
Try sending up a flare.
Stopped in to see Ashland
School Superint endent
Stanley Jobe this week and
Ashland residents should be
happy to learn that he was
hard at work.
The recent legal tangle
oyer locks for the new jun
ior high school seems to be
out of the way (more than
one official referred to it as
"sour grapes") and Jobe is
now slaving over the new
budget. 1
No official comment on
said budget as yet, but Mr.
J. did point somewhat
glumly to a pencil on his
desk. A red pencil.
Another one from the Hap
py Camp High school news
paper. War Whoop:
A disheveled gent stumbled
into a psychiatrist's office,
tore open a cigarette and
stuffed the tobacco up his
nose.
"I can see that you need
me," said the doctor kindly.
"How can I help?"
"Got a light?"

Rural Reflections
By MAUDE ZIEGLER
Applegate Valley - Folks
who think they have troubles
these days should recall what
went oh 60 years ago: A bit
of correspondence dated Nov.
14, 1900 says that Charley
Hamilton, father of Boyd
Hamilton, was going about
the neighborhood looking for
his team and hack.
He had left his team tied
while he was in the Ruch
store, and the horses disap
peared. And neither were
there telephones then as a
means of checking up on the
wayward horses.

Hornbrook - Penny Barnum
has been chosen by the Rogue
Valley Council of Girl Scouts
to be one of four Senior Girl
Scouts to represent the Rogue
Valley council at the Three
Rivers Senior council to be
held in Eugene April 1-2.
She will represent the Pine
Crest neighborhood of the
West Siskiyou district of the
council. Selection of the girls
for the expense-paid trip was
made on the basis of answers
to questionnaires sent to all
Senior Scouts in the council.
Penny, a junior at Yreka
High school, is the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Barnum,
and has lived in Hornbrook
since she was four years old.
She has been a member of the
local 4-H club, and last year
was secretary of the Willow
Creek 4-H club.
For many years Penny was
the carrier here for the Med
ford Mail Tribune and two
other papers, and was a fa
miliar and welcome sight as
she made her rounds on horse
back. Since entering high school
she has had to give up two of
her routes.
Penny is a charter member,
and an active one, of the
Vaquerras, Hornbrook's girls'
mounted drill team. Her other
activities include many years
as a piano and accordion stu
dent of Mrs. Edith Greene,
and she also is a member of
the Latin club and the Girls'
Athletic association of Yreka
high.
Her brother, Mike, now in
the Navy, was a leader in the
local Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts,
and Explorers, and received
his Eagle badge several years
ago. It was through observing
her brothers' Scout activities
that Penny became interested
in the Scouting movement,
and before the establishing of
a Girl Scout troop here, work
ed as a "lone" scout in this
area. Penny has loved animals, and
