ASHLAND HIGH SCHOOL
Various Notes That Tell of ActiVi-
ties in the Realm of the
Three RS.

Robert Spencer and Fred Garrett
are expected to join the senior Eng
lish class this week.
A meeting of the Annual staff was
held Wednesday afternoon under di-
rection of Editor Ashcraft.
Two large classes in sociology un-
der Miss Parker have been organized
and will begin active work as soon
as few more copies of the raxt book
arrive.
Miss Wagner has become enthused
in the Annual cause and is putting
in one period day in it's behalf.
Miss Wagner has been chosen facul-
ty advisor for the IA edition.
The new semester began Monday
and all students have clear record
to begin on. The senior English
class will take active steps into ar
gumentation and debate as a starter.
The last semester cards were given
out Friday, including all grades for
the first four months of the school
term and examination grades. There
were very few failures in any of the
examinations.
Reports from klamath Falls say
that although the Ashland debaters
were defeated it was a close decision
and that two of the judges papers
were very close. There is some con-
ISOLATION in that.
Among former residents of Ash
land who were seen in Yreka when
the teams went over were Elmer
shorty Orr, formerly high school
student here, and L. A. Petersen, a
well-known Ashland tailor.
The two senior English classes
have been combined and will meet
as one class hereafter since Miss
Wagner thinks it advisable that the
upper classmen should be together
in at least one of their classes
Professor Moore suggested Tues
day evening that the school applaud
the freshmen for their meritorious
conduct during the school hours and
for not getting lost in the Railways
or getting into the wrong class
rooms. The suggestion was unani-
mously accepted.
Miss Gala Vogeli, formerly stu
dent at the Ashland Polytechnic Col
lege, is taking Miss Madge EGbankS'
place as secretary to Professor Bris-
coe while Miss Eubanks will assist
Miss Davenport with the domestic
science classes. The change was
made at the beginning of the new
semester.
The basketball schedule which
Coach Klum has arranged 20 date is

land, January % and "a. Corvallis

ruary 20 and 27; Medford at Ash
land, February 26 and 2S.
The task of reseating the assembly
to accommodate the new freshmen
was undertaken Monday morning
and three rows of desks were left
for their accommodation. Monday
evening school was dismissed fifteen
minutes early so that the young
rocks might roam about the build
ing undisturbed by any upper class
men and to enable the freshies to
find their respective class rooms.
While the high school teams were
in California the freshies and sophs
had little game of their own on
the gym floor Friday evening. The
sophs were after revenge for the
football result sometime back, and
from the looks of the score they got
1t, since the upper classmen were
victorious l6 to Z. Among the fea-
lures of the game were Paynes beau
tiful throw into the wrong basket
and the Official stunts pulled off by
Referee Salisbury. The lineup fol-
lows:
