Cloverdale High school news r

There have been several 4-H members and parents in the office recently, wondering if they could receive 4-H materials for next year. The answer isyes.Weencourage members to get started early on their projects. Some of them lend themselves better to fall participation than spring or summer. Division three forestry should be started in the early fall because there are more tree seeds mature in the fall than spring or summer. In this division, members must collect, identify, and preserve tree seeds. They will keep better if they are kept in a cool, dry place. A suggestion would be the attic. If you have trouble reaching the seeds, get a cane fishing pole, fasten a stiff string, such as a nylon fishing cord on the end of the pole. This should be about 12 or 14 inches long and fastened on both ends of the string so as to make a loop. When you reach up to get the seed and pull down, the string will tighten to hold the seed. The weed project is another one that is better to do in the fall because the weeds are more mature and have more parts to display. Many of the projects can be completed anytime of the year. This might be an idea for the kids to work on during the bad day which we will have this win. ter. Many interesting scenes can be found for photography. The fall and icy winters lend themselves to very pretty colors. —Fro«it weather anu cool temperatures speeded up coloration. For second straight year, region’s foliage should be superb. Peak could be approached by Oct. 12. Foliage changes more widespread and general than elsewhere.

WASHINGTON (UPI)-The American Society of Newspaper Editors (ASNE) is asking presidential candidates to take a stand on the claimed right of Presidents to withhold information, in some cases, from the public and Congress. The ASNE also, in cooperation with the Freedom of Information Center of the University of Missouri, is asking candidates for House and Senate whether they will support full disclosure of campaign contributions, spend, ing and outside financial inter, ests of lawmakers. All replies will be made public. The inquiries were formulated jointly by ASNE and the Freedom of Information Center. They were sent to candidates by Sam Ragan, executive editor of the Raleigh (NC.) News & Observer-Times and chairman of the ASNE Freedom of Information Committee.

A project that I would like to see become a more popular project is the Home Grounds Im. provement. Many people are fixing up their property, so why not have the children help with this. Include the home furnishings project in this also. Come in and get your 4-H material for 1969. Freeman comments on own record WASHINGTON (UPI) — Republicans won’t agree, but Orville L. Freeman thinks he’s done a good job as agriculture secretary in the eight-year term he plans to conclude Jan. 20. Freeman announced Thursday that when the next administration takes over, no matter who wins, he plans to enter private industry as president of a new Washington - based firm, EDP Technological International, Inc. Beset by the obvious political handicap of low grain prices in an election year, Freeman finds top Republican campaigners telling farm audiences, “The Humphrey - Freeman farm formula has turned out to be the politics not of joy, but of disaster.” Issues “Fact Sheet” At a news conference called to disclose his 1969 move to private industry, Freeman handed reporters a “fact sheet” summing up his own view of the past eight years on the farm front. Realized net farm income has gone from $11.7 billion in 1960 to an estimated $15 billion this year, the statement said. And farmers’ equities—assets minus debts—have increased 31 per cent. Now 58, Freeman said he plans to work permanently for the EDP firm. The company will apply modern systems management and computer technology to programs designed to build more efficient food producing and distributing industries, mainly abroad but also in the United States.

Congress and Presidents since George Washington have tangled repeatedly over the claim of “executive privilege” exercised by Presidents in refusing certain information requested by Congress. When the President himself withholds information on the internal operations of his office, the lawmakers do not generally object. But they have protested strongly in recent years to extension of the “executive privilege” claim to cover information denials by other officials of the executive branch. Ragan, in letters to the three presidential contenders, put the question this way: “In some recent administra. tions the claim of an ‘executive privilege’ based on the Constitution has been used by many executive branch officials to refuse information to the Congress; in other administrations the use of the ‘executive

privilege’ claim has been limited to the President himself. Would you, as President, narrow the claim of power to a presidential authority or would you broaden it to permit other executive branch officials to claim ‘executive privilege’ to withold information from Congress?” Ragan also asked each of the candidates whether as President he would appoint a full-time, qualified White House staff member to handle complaints about improper withholding of government information. He said such a job was provided for as part of the government’s system for protecting defense secrets, but

that it never has been filled. Candidates for Congress are being asked—in addition to questions about full disclosure of contributions, spending and outside income— whether they favor a change in congressional rules to open all committee meetings to the public except where the committee by majority vote has determined a closed session is required to protect the national security. Also, they are asked to take a stand on opening committee sessions to accredited press and television photographers. Senate hearings sometimes are opened to photographers, and to broadcasters. House committee sessions are not.

This week at CHS has really helped to bring the year into focus and to get the school spirit going. The yell leaders for this 19681969 season were elected. This year Cloverdale will break the old routine by having five cheer leaders. Portia Collier is yell captain since she received the most votes. The others who were elected are Diana Denny, Pam Jordan, Joyce Shrader, and Patti Ziegleman. Getting the school spirit going is fine to a point; but 13 spirits (or witches as in this case) going around the school is something else. But, what? Oh, these aren’t really witches at all but the cast for the Thespian play, “Get Witch Quick”. Seeing how well the cast has been practicing its witchcraft, now seems like a good time to introduce the cast.

Another group that is very “spirited” is the Cloverdale Cross Country team. The CC guys are now 14-1 for the season but their major accomplishment was the winning of the county cross country meet in Greencastle on Monday, Sept. 23. The scores were Cloverdale, 48; Reelsville, 83; Fillmore, 84; Bainbridge, 85; and Russellville, 162. Rowan from Reelsville, finished first.

Two Cloverdale runners, Virgil Hunsicker and Ron McKamey, finished sixth and seventh. This Monday starts the Freshman Initiation which is always the opening ceremony of the year at CHS. The Seniors have picked their Freshmen to sponsor and all the Seniors are working overtime to find just the right character for their Freshman’s skit. Sunday, a group consisting of Sandy Mannan, Gay Pieel, Denny Sutherlin, Jerry Sutherlin, and Senior president, Rick Cummings met to start dreaming up (or maybe “nightmaring up” is more appropriate) the stunts for the Initiation Dance on Friday night. At the Senior-Freshman meeting, the Seniors also voted for 3 girls, one of which will be chosen for the DAR award. They, are Doris Elmore, Bonnie Van Pelt, and Pattie Ziegleman. The Freshmen were also instructed at this meeting to vote for 3 girls, one to reign as their Freshman queen and two to be attendants. Next week, I’ll be bringing you the happenings, fun, prizes, and royalty from the Initiation week. Till then, Annie Lewis

DEAR HELOISE: I've just learned the trick to “ironing” blue jeans and wash-and-wear pants. Before I wash them, I turn them inside out. Then when 1 put them in the dryer later, I only put ONE pair in at a time for about twenty minutes. Whamo. when they come out there's no ironing at all. All it takes is to turn them right side out. fold and hang them up. This works wonders on work shirts and wash-and-wear shirts, too. Mary Swanson ❖ $ * That’s what I call using your noggin, honey pic. tleloise $ # * DEAR HELOISE: At bridal showers I always give a little door prize. As each guest comes in they write their name and what they brought as a gift on a slip of paper. At the end of the party, a name is drawn and that person receives a small gift. This also helps the honoree and eliminates having someone write down who gave what! D. C. * * ^ DEAR HELOISE: When we make oatmeal at our house, we always allow enough to have some leftover. Then the next time we make pancakes, some leftover oatmeal is added to our batter. Our family thoroughly enjoys these. In fact, it's their favorite kind.

DEAR HELOISE: I am the daughter of a marble quarryman and appreciate marble and realize that most people think that marble is indestructible which isn't true. It can be scratched as well as stained. 1 find that non-yellowing automobile wax is one of the best protectors. It fills the I lores and leaves a glazed waterproof finish.

So I took an ordinary brass paper fastener (the kind with a round head and two legs which separate cn the other side), and used it for the day. Later. I bought a box of them and enameled sets in different colors. The cost is practically nil. they htok so nice. A Reader DEAR HELOISE: When the trash can is empty. turn it upside down and drive four to six nail holes in the bottom. Then the rain and liquids will drain out. Helps prevent rusting.
