OREGON Regional Roundup ly Clvt Twllchcll Xagiooal Editor There m something like 16 inches of snow at the ML Ash land Ski Area this morning, but a lot of people wish it weren't there so soon. The snow is build ing up a good pack for the rant ing skiing season, but it is slow ing down the construction work at the ski lodge. Three of the four towers have ; hom hoisted into place. The fourth one was scheduled to go up today. It originally was slated to be up last week, but the 30-ton crane brought in from Eugene for the job broke down, and another crane had to be summoned. The hole In the roof where thA fourth tower will go, and the spot which will be occupied by a chimney have left enough of an opening to let a fair amount of snow Into the lodge building. A temporary wall has been put up to keep the snow from blowing in from the sides, but It has still been coming in from above. i . i SUCCESSFUL IE IN CONTEST Bunco Weast, left, student body presideot at Coit of the Siskiyous, Weed, and Lynn Warns, editor of the college annual, pose oa the teeter-totter used by students to break all previous records in continuous hours of tee CiHsraa Junior Oritogw.

Smoother Surface We paid Eagle Point a brief visit Monday, going in on the back road that becomes South B Street. We were pleased o note that it had been paved since the last time we had driven on It. The ride was con siderably smoother than before. We realized it had been a lit tle while since we had last been on that road, but it surprised us somewhat when our Eagle Point correspondent, Gaynell 'Kram beal, mentioned that the paving job was done at least six months ago.

New Record for Teeter-Tottering By CHARLOTTE DAVIS Mall Tribune Correspondeat , WEED Breaking all Drev ious records in a current fad among junior colleges, that of teeter tottering, is the distine tion of the student body of the College of the Siskiyous at Weed. At 8 a.m. yesterday the south ern Siskiyou County college had achieved 170 consecutive hours, beating the previous record set by Shasta College of Redding, of 169 hours. Yuba College of Marysville and American River College of Sac ramento are others who have contests going. Started A Week Ago Bright and early on Nov. 13, Burton Weast, student body president, and Lynn Warren, editor of . the college annual, Silver Eagle," climbed on the teeter totter, marking the be ginning of the race against any other contenders. The students at COS were de termined to break Shasta's rec ord by teetering 180 hours straight, or perhaps even long er, if participants were willing. The rugged looking teeter-tot ter, consisting of a packing box, a rounded hall log and a plank, was set up in front of the John Mantle Student Center, so all passers-by could notice. Another identical one was set up In the college garage for night use. . The icy winds and the rains came, so permission was ob tained to move the main unit to the inside of the large stu dent center building. Administrators, instruc tors and office personnel show as much interest as the students themselves, although they do not actually participate. The elders show concern for the stu dents by helping take pictures, advise them on- news releases and are concerned for their health and endurance. Thus far no ill effects on class atten dance have been noted, as all show good self-discipline. The entire student body Is participating in the venture, girls as well as boys. Since there are two units, individual student contests have been go ing on. Thus far Hal Whipple and Ed Biasotti, both students from Yreka, bold the individual record, that of 17 hours and 35 minutes. Weast, Crescent City, and Warren, Redding, acting as gen eral managers, say that the day light hours present no problem to fill but it Is the nighttime hours that are becoming increa singly difficult to fill. Pass The Time ' Chess playing, other games, eating and record playing help break the monotony of the long night hours. Some of them have even taken short naps, by hav ing the partner continue the steady rhythm of the teeter-totter. One evening a regular hoot- enany took place in the college garage, 18 students participa ting, while the teetering went on. One avid participant, Norman Pillsbury, whose home is in Jamestown, New York, a forest ry major, rides a bicycle two miles to and from school each day.

In conjunction with the com mon level reading program since the sixth week of school, teachers met with Miss Bentson and also observed three reidtag classes in action. The observation classes were taught by Mrs. Viola Laird, Mrs. Lois Webb and Mrs. Aud rey Beman. The main objective oi tne common level reading program is to develop reading abilities, habit and favorable attitudes in a continuous process adjusted to meet the needs of the indi vidual child. Miss Bentson pointed out that teachers should be aware of the total group through an analysis of Individual needs and that thty should teach according to the weaknesses of children within the group. Teachers felt that Miss Bent son's visit was particularly helpful to them through the dis cussion ot new trends, philoso phies and methods.
