Printed by Berliner & Mc Ginnis, Nevada City. EDITORIAL The New High School When the doors of the new Nevada Union High School opened Monday a new chapter in Nevada County educational history began. Asa community, we have every right to be proud of our new structure. We also have a responsibility to aid in the landscaping program, and can expect the cooperation of civic-minded organizations in taking their share of the task. Students who moved into the new building this week no doubt have a feeling of pride in it. School sprit this year should be atanall-time high. The student council has. already shown by work crews that the students are eager to aid in work that is yet to be done on the site. We are sure the high school board of trustees will be among the first to point -out that there are additional facilities needed to complete the new school. And they willalsoagree that before many years the school will need the planned expansiontobe abletohandle its proposed limit of 1500 students. Yes, we are proud of our new school. But structures are only a vehicle for education. Our school board must furnish the necessary equipment, our administrators and teachers must give of their experience and talent in bringing forth the full opportunity to learn, and our students must take advantage of this opportunity. The school spirit that we expect to see exhibitedin extra-curricular activities must also permeate the classroom. In the final analysis, we want to be proud of our graduates as well as the plant in which they matriculated. BUY UNIT LOTS & SAVE+*= D.E.

These are notes on the busy summer of 1961 a summer that was all too short... Ruth is through with hg@r'd watching. Many times I have written of her dedication to her feathered friends. She is a member of the Audubon Society. She has attended could better understand their songs and eating habits. She has fed the western wood pewee and has protected the nest of the bush-tit.It's like having your hand bit by those you feed. Lack of gratitude, that's . what it is. Now Ruth is through, THROUGH! While walking in Union Square SF last week, a City bird, a pigeon, scored a direct hit a bullseye! Far and away the most facinating of our week-end guests was a perfumed marcelled apricot blond hussey who arrived at our redwood cottage wearing a chastity belt. I assure you that it was not at all necessary, All the Nevada City dogs are gentlemen. They may be mongrels but they got manners. The dog predicure, the trimmed pom pom tail and the jewelled collar was all too much for Paddy. On Goco's arrival, the grandest $375 French Poodle I have ever laid eyes upon Paddy just took a look didn't wait around to sniff canine Qhannel No 5 but :scrammed! under the house bewitched bothered and bewildered.

Two schools of thought have quickly developed about this controvessial masterpeice -is it a very immoral film or a very moral film? You will have to decide for yourself. Word of caution to the Grass Valley Movie Committee: Recommended for the mature adult only. onions a real skill..I'll never forget. the first time my German bride foldedthe dough over the meat-potato-onion segments. the monstrosity came out of the oven looking exactly like a Shriner's slipper. Movies? We viewed two memorable ones LA DOLCE VITA AND FANNY, LA DOLCE VITA is the story of a young reporter in today's Rome coverning a series of parties and sensational events for a scandal sheet. Violence, depravity , beauty, foolishness and emptiness are all portrayed. A presumed miracle in which twochildren who think they have seen the Virgin is horribly exploited. As the hero in the story pursues Rome’ upper and lower depths for items cheap and gaudy (followed by a fiendish pack of photographers) he is progressively swallowed up in the sin that he writes La Dolce Vita The Sweet Life Is La Dolce Vita one of the ten greatest pictures ever made? Or is it a phony? San Francisco movie goers are trying to find out by paying $32,000 a week and filling two theaters twice each evening. FANNY is a wonderful fable of love. Here aré the young lovers Horst Buchholz and Leslie Caron FANNY isabig, cheerful, full of nonsense move withLeslie Caron, Maurice Chevalier, Charles Boyer and Horst Buchholz. Chevalier is a wealthy merchant seeking a wife in the autumn years of his life. His friend, Boyer, runsa wine shop on the water front and is a card player for fun, and is the father of Buchholz, the lover of Caron, Buchholz runsaway to sea unaware that he has left Caron with child, Chevalier accepts the child as his after his marriage to Caron. It's a happy fable of love and the entire family should see it. The sound of the movie is as appealing as the picture itself, photographed in France in rich color, You hear the music but not the words of "I Want You" as Caron's lover runs away to sea, and "My Restless Heart" answering the mysterious call of the sea, Those who enjoyed Fanny as a musical comedy stage presentation will recognise "Love is A Very Light Thing” and "Oysters, Cockles and Mussels” . My sister Estelle Tracy gave the best capsule review of FANNY said Estelle-"It was so wonderful I wished it couldhave gone on for another hour". Any of you remember Estelle? She was Goddess of Liberty in the Nevada City 4th of July parade in 1916, She is just as ptetty to-day as she was 45 years ago. Has been on the office staff of St, Matthews Episcopal Church in San Mateo for the past 25 years. Make the movie FANNY a must when it shows at the Del Oro. AState Park atthe Malakoff in the North Bloomfield area could be one of the finest things that ever happened to the merchants of Grass Valley and Nevada City. The Committee appointed by the Board of Trade to look into the entire park possibilities for western Nevada County is an excellent one. The California Beaches & Parks program has something for everyone and every area big locations small locations. Spent two days in Mendocino County on my vacation checking into their State Park system. MendocinoCounty, that long ago learned the good of going after progress collectively like NC and GV can, has 11 state parks -a national forest-and a state forest. Talktoany merchant in Mendocino in any town and he'll tell you-without the camper and the tourist "wecouldn't survive." My SF spies report quite a sight in Trader Vic's Hong Kong Room, Who but PlazaGrocery merchant John Sbaffi, in SF for a Giants game sittin with aplomb and splendor talking to Herb Caen about Nevada City and being served for free by Trader Vic himself Vic's special fresh scrod flown in from Boston, Sothe summer ends. Andthe more things change the more they are the same. Eons and eons ago, even before Mary Clutter Jones Wallis was a babe in the crib, Postmaster Wallace, inthe early evening hours, used to play his horn on the porch of the Red Castle on Prospect Hill the sweet music would drift zephyr-like down into town a sound that all was well in NC. Now there is a new sound coming from almost the same spot on Prospect Hill-a sound justas sweet and just as peacefulthe sound of bagpipes palyed so harmoniously by Dr. H.A. McPherson.
