Box Shooks Oratorio Group Will Appear in 2 Performances Second annual presentation of Mendelssohn's "Elijah," by the Central Oregon Oratorio society, will be Monday, May 16. at 8 p.m. in the auditorium of John Tuck school, Redmond, and Tuesday, May 17, at 8 p.m. in the Bend high school gymnasium. Under the direction of Don P. Pence, a chcrus of 170 voices and a 38 piece orchestra will take part in the production. The stirring music tells one of the most coloful of all Biblical stories, that of the Prophet Elijah, who hid in a cave and was fed meat and bread by a raven. The part is sung by Rev. Allan B. Philp. baritone. Other featured soloists are Mrs. Albert Allen, Mrs. Wesley Baker and Rev. Walter Naff. Fred Dallas is con cert master and Mrs. T. D. Sexton is accompanist Story Familiar Woven into the music will be the story of Elijah's restoration to life of a widow's son, and a song of joy by the grateful mother. A high point is Elijah's challenge of the priests of Baal, and the fruitless efforts of the non-believers to produce a sign of fire. The familiar Bible story, recounted in song, tells how Elijah prepared an offering and God sent down fire to consume the entire altar. The followers of Baal repent and turn to God, and their chorus of thanksgiving is sung in jubilant gratitude for rain, which had been withheld as a punishment for sin. The dress rehearsal will be Sun day at 2 p.m. in the John Tuck auditorium in Kedmond, fense stressed today. It was originally planned to hold the dress rehear sal in Bend. Final regular re hearsal was last night In the gym nasium. ' The public will be welcome to attend either performance, offi cers of the society have stressed. Admission will be cost-free, but an offering will be received to de fray costs of the production.

CHOICEST GREGG'S Banner BAKERY Russia Ends (Continued on Page 5) sian and German guards at the checkpoints between the east and west sectors of Berlin would be removed at the zero hour.

Miller listed the National Recla mation association as "one of the more powerful lobbies doing yeo man service for the bureau of rec lamation." 1 "The engineers have a whole string of lobbies behind them, in cluding the aggressive Mississippi Valley association, arid the 'weal thy, Influential national rivers and narnors congress, ne said. He assorted that Presidents Hoover, Roosevelt and Truman all tried in vain to curb the lobby ing of the army engineers but they have consistently by-passed the White House and appealed di rect to sympathetic congressmen for appropriations. He said the engineers cvjn now are working to whip up public and congressional opposition to the Hoover commission's recom mendations that would take them out of the dam-building business.
