Chamber Official
Tells Ashlanders
Planning Needed
Ashland James C. Schill,
manager for the western dis
trict of the U.S. Chamber of
Commerce, visited the Ash
land Chamber Tuesday to con
duct what he called a "brain
storm session." He spoke to
chamber members at their
weekly luncheon at the Mark
Antony hotel.
Schill had praise for Ash
land on one hand, calling it an
attractive city, but then he
asked chamber members if
they could not be doing more
than they already arc.
"We can't Just plan for one
year ahead in this day and
age," Schill said. "We must
project plans far in advance.
We must be willing to change
with the times or else go
out of business."
As an example, the speaker
noted that the Seattle, Wash.,
Chamber of Commerce has
projected plans as far ahead
as the year 2000.
Something to Sell
A chamber has to have
something to sell, Schill said,
and it has to have a budget
to back up the specific proj
ects it is promoting.
Schill tossed out a few ideas
for specific projects, empha
sizing that he had no idea
whether they would apply to
the Ashland area. "That is
for you to determine," he told
the chamber.
Schill's ideas including do
ing something to perpetuate
the central core of the city,
working with agriculture to
increase the profits of the
farmers and taking steps to
reduce the percentage of drop
outs between the ninth and
twelfth grades.
Study Safflower Growth
He noted that the Silverton,
Ore., Chamber is devoting
half its budget to a test to
see if safflower can be grown
in that area for the benefit
of farmers' incomes.
Regarding dropouts, Schill
said the statewide dropout
percentage is 24.8. Each youth
who fails to complete high
school results in a loss of
thousands of dollars of income
to merchants in his commun
ity. Schill said he realized that
many such ideas are "contro
versial," but he added, "Don't
worry about controversy. Pro
gress itself is controversial. If
a poll were taken right here
it would probably show that
a majority of Ashlanders are
against progress.

Plans to Handle Conditions
At Jefferson Are Reviewed
(Conlinutd From Pag 1)
At present, first and third
graders are utilizing one
room, and present plans are
for a combination of first and
second graders in one class
room next year.
School administrators have
pointed out that pupils attend
ing class in such situations
are grouped as homogenous-
ly as possible, and if parents
wish their child transferred
to a regular classroom, the
child is moved. Administra
tors pointed out, too, (hat
teachers in such situations are
carefully selected so the pupil
docs not suffer academically.
The plan for next year to
have a "split" class of first
and second graders is part of
the fifth alternative offered
to help relieve the situation
at Jefferson school.
Other Part of Plan
The other part of the plan
concerns the fourth grade,
which next year will have 69
or 70 pupils, a fact about
which concern was expressed
by the Jefferson school area
delegation.
This plan, as outlined by
Dr. Elliott Becken, assistant
superintendent, at a recent
meeting, has two alternatives.
One would be" to have two

Dr. Mayfield stressed that
any plan suggested for adop

the state department of edu

personnel at Jefferson school
would help relieve the situa

ber of fourth grade pupils.
Hosick said an area encom

be developed was within the
past lew days, school admin
istrators were not aware 01
the transaction, he said.
Keith Hockcrsmith, board
h a i r m a n, reviewed the
board's problem in holding to
minimum the number of
classrooms planned for con
struction before the 1963-64
school year.
He pointed out that addi-!
tional elementary classrooms
are needed at several schools,
and were planned to be in-1
eluded in a bond issue which
would have financed construe- i
tion of additional high school i
facilities as well as elemen- j
tary classrooms.
Bond Issue Postponed
However, because of at-1
tempts during the past year
to consolidate part or all ot ;
the Phoenix-Talent district to '
Medford, consideration of a
bond issue had to be post
poned until after that ques
tion was settled. This has re
sulted in a delay of about a
year on the district s construc
tion plans.
Hockersmilh pointed out
that during budget sessions,
10 additional elementary class
rooms were originally con-'
sldered. After reviewing at
tendance and census figures,
and reviewing plans for han
dling students, the budget
committee and school admin
istrators believed the mini
mum number of classrooms
needed next year could be
reduced to five without jcop-
rdizing the academic pro
gram,
He noted, however, mat u
classrooms are not added to
Wilson and Lone Pine schools,
some pupils in the primary
grades will be double-shifted,
situation which me ooara
has tried to avoid.
The number of additional
classrooms planned through
the operating budget was held
to a minimum in the interests
of economy, Hockcrsmith
said, pointing out that the
proposed budget Is a consid
erable increase over tills
year's general fund.
Show Slight Decline
Attendance and census fig
ures show a slight decline in
Jefferson school attendance
and a ureater-than-cxpectod
Increase In the Wilson and
Lone Pine school areas, he
said, a point which also was
considered in planning class
rooms, lor next year.
Other elementary- class
rooms are planned, including
at least two at Jefferson, as
soon as the district's construc
tion program can be redeter
mined and a bond issue called,
Hockersmilh pointed out.
The Jefferson school prob
lem probably will be discuss
ed again at the public hearing
on the proposed budget for
1063-64, which will be hold
at 7:30 p.m. Friday In Hed
rick Junior High school.
The delegation from the
Jefferson school area attend-
ine last nights meeting in
cluded Mrs. Rita Shogren, Mr.
and Mrs. Hosick, Mrs. Kay
Philips, Mrs. Betty Orahood
and Mrs. Lee Eisinstcin.
