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.

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.
Time catapults by.
One day during October we In
stituted a search for a story we
remembered seeing in the pa
ncr "a couDle of months ago."
We finally found it in an issue
during Mircn.

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.

Hew Reading
Program Subject
Of Discussion
CENTRAL POINT - Methods
for an expanded reading pro
gram were demonstrated and
discussed in an all-day session
when Miss Muriel Bentson, re
gional textbook consultant from
Salem, visited Central Point
Elementary School recently.
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. An examina
tion of some of the problems
facing the children as they learn
to read helped each teacher to
re-evaluate daily planning,
methods of instruction, and am
terials being used.
