lated some early day stories
and displayed an 1852 ledger
showing business transactions
and a marriage record book. !
At Hooperville, on Indian j

an Indian's home. On a rail j
fence hung many deer antlers,
hanging from the porch was
an old bird cage that had doz-1
ens of feet of large birds hang

owl with a huge wing spread ;
was tacked to the side of the I
house and snake skins hung
from the porch along with a
hornets nest.

Tuna Rice Soup Makes
Warming Lunch Dish
New York - (UPD - Tuna rice
soup is a warming main dish
for a lunch. Combine 2 (6V4 or
7 ounce) cans of tuna, drained
and flaked, with 3 vegetable
bouillon cubes, 3 cups of boil
ing water, 1 cup of cooked
rice, 2 cups (I-pound can) of
diced carrots with their liquid,
and ' i teaspoon of basil. Heat
to serving temperature, stir
ring occasionally. Makes 8

school. Dom Favero, member
of the Yreka High school
district board of trustees, ex
plained the bond levying
proposition measure on the
ballot in the primary election.
Mr. Favero explained the
need for a "yes" vote on the
measure. If the bonds arc
levied it will limit '.he tax
burden for construction of
buildings for high school pur
poses at approximately 40
cents per hundred dollars as
sessed valuation. The past
year it was 41 cents.
State Aid
Should the proposition pass,
the speaker explained, it
would allow the district to
make a first step in becoming
eligible for state aid if i
is needed in construction of
future buildings. If the bonds
are levied the present
amount charged against the
property and on which taxpay
ers are already paying, would
be used as part of the required
bonds needed for establishing
eligibility for state aid. Dis
tricts need to bond to 5 per
cent of their school bonding
capacity to become eligible
for state aid, he added.
At present the new district
has no indebtedness in its
name. Mr. Favero explained
that the debt on which Yreka
district taxpayers are now
paying 41 cents per on hun
dred dollars valuation has so
far not been assumed by
YUHS.
A "yes" vote is essential
in order to continue a plan
ned program of school con
struction, he stressed.
Department Discuised
Student requirements and
how grades are given In both
boys' and girls' physical edu
cation departments were dis
cussed by Ronnie Barnard,
physical education teacher,
and Allen Mclntyre who will
teach physical education next
year. They pointed out that
grades are not given exclusive
ly ability, but also on accom
plishments and on attitude.
Students are not graded com
petitively, but individually.
The faculty members ex
pressed the hope that swim
ming will be included in the
curriculum tor both boys and
girls next year. Soccer, too,
may be added to the activity.
The meeting was conducted
by Mrs. Paul Dunham, outgo
ing president of the high
school.
