Angel Time Out Trip to Hood River Music Festival Declared Highlight ; Music Good By Maxlne Buren ,' Statesman Woman's Editor It seems that everyone who attended the Hood River Music fes tival last weekend was Just about as enthusiastic as I. The music was good, the scenery beautiful and best of all, the participants seemed to be having such a wonderful time. t It is an' achievement in itself for a town which the Oregon Blue Book lists as having a population of less than 4.000 (though I sus pect the figure is much too small for the present population) to at tract more than an equal number to a single music event. For five years the people of Hood River, under the leadership of Boris Sirpo, have dreamed of a festival. This year they had four days of music. For the first year it should be considered a huge success. All Music The music festival, unlike oth er "festivals" of the country, had no contests, parades or carnival. There was no selection of a queen and no commercialism. Not even any balloons, but lots of coffee during intermission. Though several outside artists were brought in to increase inter est and provide a bit of sophisti cation, most of the work was tne by townspeople. jf Hood River is a city built along the great Calumbia, extending up the steep tree-covered hills on, the south bank. The festival was held in the athletic field above the town. We looked out over fthe field, toward the green home made stage. Across the river- to the north we saw a valley flanked by green-blue hills leading into the great white mountain, Mt- Ad ams, which centered the picture. To the left and right were rows of poplars, rustling in the breeze. The clouds put on their own show. Black on Thursday night, they swept toward the city several times, only to rush off towards the north, spilling their rain on oth er and less anxious heads. Satur day they were light and soft. Sun day they J, billowed up over IML Adams to form a perfect picture of western scenery. Sunburned Noses Hard working musicians prac ticed through the days during the festival, to ready themselves; for the evening performances. Sun day we listened for three hours in the blazing sun, while musicians and singers went through their routine diligently, but with appar ent fatigueuring the latter por tion of the practice. One of the most amazing and pleasing things about the festival was the obvious joy of spirit of the participants and helpers. Ev eryone seemed to be getting the greatest kick out of the festival.

MARILYN MYERS Salem ; "ft... i BETTE TWTTO Woodburn The noses of the orchestra mem bere were reddened to blisters for the performances, from hours of midday practice. Weather in Ore gon being what it is, they slipped on jackets for the evening, and nobody seemed to mind covering glamorous formal gowns probably purchased for the occasion. Lunches were brought to re hearsal, for the practices had ex tended over the noon hours. And many families were on hand to share them. Sirpo's wife put up a sack lunch for him too, as even a director gets hungry. Everyone seemed busy, but no one rushed so much he couldn't sit down awhile and listen to the music Most of the work was done lo cally, the shell, while not a pro fessional job, was an achievement for the men who made it. Every body was taking pictures, even the singers during practice. Tours were planned for visitors, meals were served at the Apple Growers association cafeteria, cof fee, soft drinks and ice cream were served by the American Le gion auxiliary during rehearsals and at intermission. Even the children had their innings Sunday afternoon when the junior sym phony and junior chorus, with two young violinists as special perfor mers, gave a concert. Yes, it was pretty good, we haven't had so much in fun in years, especially at a musical event. Portland Beavers YS. Salem August 16th No Reserved Seats Tickets on sale day of game at the ball park.
