Jacques Lecoq is the director of Ecole Jacques Lecoq, the renowned school
of mime and theatre movement in Paris that he founded in 1956. In his work
there, M . Lecoq has developed mime beyond its traditional lim its. Thus
liberated, mime has become the foundation o f a dramatic form based on
gestures, attitudes and movements o f the human body. His school has in­
fluenced mimes, comedians, directors, actors and teachers.
M. Lecoq. who has been professor at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure de
Beaux Arts in Paris, specializing in the study o f movement and space in drama,
began his career as a physical education and sports teacher. For two years he
was a member o f the “ Comédiens de Grenoble” Company under the direction
o f Jean Daste, who used the methods to Jacques Copeau. In 1948, he moved to
Italy where he was soon appointed Master o f Mime at the Piccolo Teatro o f
Milan. There he created a number o f original works o f mime and helped start
l ’Ecole de Piccolo. He also directed productions for stage and television, and
choreographed for the Opera o f Rome.
Since his return to Paris, he has directed and choreographed various produc­
tions for the Theatre de France and the Comedie Française, as well as for other
theatres and international festivals, Him and television in artistic capitals o f
Italy. Germany, England and Greece. In those countries and in Denmark,
Finland, Rumania, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Canada, and Japan, M.
Lecoq has directed professional study courses on his methods o f instruction.
He has served with the Conseil de l’ Europe as expert on the subject o f sport and
permanent education. He is presently touring major South American cities as a
guest and an ambassador o f the arts o f the Republic o f France.
A series o f four workshops are
being sponsored by the Columbia
Region Association o f Governments
(CRAG) to acquaint citizens with the
prelim inary d ra ft o f the region's
Housing Opportunity Plan (HOP).
The first workshop is set for 7:30
p.m. Wednesday, August 9th, at the
Hillsboro City Hall Council Cham­
bers, located at 205 S.E. 2nd Street,
and is being held for Washington
County residents.
The second workshop, for East
M u ltn o m a h C ounty residents, is
scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Thursday,
August 10th, at the Gresham Council
Chambers, 50 N.E. Elliott Street.
Portland and West M ultnom ah
County residents are invited to the
third workshop, to be held at 7:30
p.m. Wednesday, August 16th, at
the CRAG offices, 527 S.W. H all
Street in Portland.
The fo u rth w orkshop,
fo r
Clackamas County residents, is set
fo r 7:30 p.m . Thursday, August
17th, at the Clackamas Community
College
C o m m u n ity
Center
Building, Room CC-117, at 19600 S.
Molalla Avenue in Oregon City.
Each workshop is scheduled to last
two hours, and any person having
questions is asked to call CR AG
P ublic Involvem ent C o o rd in a to r
Amelia Lanier at 221-1646.
The first round of workshops is to
acquaint the region's residents with
•he Housing Opportunity Plan and
how it operates. The H O P
establishes a system fo r providing
federal housing assistance to
jurisdictions throughout the CRAG
region.
It contains estimates o f housing
needs for the region and individual
ju ris d ic tio n s o f over 25,000
p o p u la tio n , and contains an
allocation process by which annual
and three-year goals may be fulfilled.
This allocation process is called
‘ ‘ la ir share” d istrib u tio n , and is
designed to channel housing
assistance money and programs so
that in d iv id u a l ju ris d ic tio n s are
carrying th e ir fa ir share o f the
region's housing assistance, without
any jurisdiction being overburdened
with a disproportionate number of
the region's assisted-housing units.
The HOP also takes into account
the form o f federal housing assis­
tance so that jurisdictioas are provided
with a variety o f programs, such as
those a ffe c tin g new housing,
re h a b ilita tio n , and rent-subsidy
assistance.
The H O P is im p o rta n t to the
region’ s housing situation because it
is a mechanism fo r carrying out
regional housing policies. These
policies were adopted by the CRAG
Board o f Directors in March after
nearly two years o f form ulation by
citizens, the Housing Technical A d­
visory Committee and CRAG staff.
These first four HOP workshops
w ill be followed in early fa ll with
another series that w ill address
specifics o f the HO P a llo c a tio n
process. A fter the preliminary HOP
is revised, i f needed, the final HOP
w ill be subm itted to the C R AG
Board in November fo r adoption.
In d ivid u a l ju risd ictio n s then w ill
decide their own participation in the
region’ s HOP.

Williams joins Bernard staff
Dr. Thomas V. Williams, Dentist,
has moved from Seattle to Portland
and joined the staff o f the Portland
O ffice o f D r. Lawrence Bernard,
where he w ill head Dr. Bernard’ s
newly instituted Orthodontic Depart­
ment. D r. W illia m s has been in
private practice for 31 years and for
I Vi years operated the Family Dental
Clinic in Seattle. There the majority
o f his practice included the O r­
thodontic needs o f both children and
adults.
Dr. Williams is a graduate o f the
University o f Oregon Dental School
(Class o f 1947, and also spent one
year at the University as an Instruc­
tor. U n til recently he practiced in
West
Seattle
and
Camas,
Washington, where most o f his 29
years in Prosthetics was devoted to
the O rth o d o n tic care o f both
childrens' and a d u lts ' teeth. He
served as a Captain in the U.S. Army
Dental Corps during the Korean
War.
W ith a deep interest in the ad­
vancement o f Orthodontic Dentistry,
Dr. W illiams has been active in both
the professional organizations in that
field and in furthering the study and
application o f modern Orthodontic
techniques. He was elected to
F ellow ship by the In te rn a tio n a l
Academy o f O rth o d o n tic s in
recognition for his Orthodontic con­
tributions. Among the organizations
with which he has been identified
and the offices held by him are: Past
President (1971) — International
Academy o f O rthodontics. C hief
C lin ic ia n to O rth o d o n tic Study
Clubs in Portland, Seattle, Univer­
sity o f Calgary, Vancouver B.C. and
Frederick M aryland. Lecturer in
Cephalometries — U.S. Dental In­
stitute, Seattle, Washington.
“ There is a fast grow ing
realization that orthodontic correc­
tion o f crooked teeth has inestimable
benefit to the individual treated —
not only by the prevention o f many
dental health problems but also in
psychological attitude o f the patient.
A person who is ashamed to smile
because o f crooked or irregularly
spaced teeth, rarely shows the better
side o f his true personality,” Dr.
W illiam s explained. “ M odern o r­
thodontic methods have shortened
the time required for corrections, as
well as reducing the inconvenience to
the patient. It is most gratifying to
see the personality changes that a
beautiful smile can bring. It truly is a
gift that w ill last a lifetim e!”
MIRACLE WHIP Salad
Dressing from Kraft is an old
favorite in salads and dressings.
But its secret blend of
herbs and spices adds a fresh,
lively one-of-a-kind flavor
to your favorite breads, too.
For special taste treats,
