First Band Conrert
Delightful Treat
Ashland music lovers expressed
approval of the first summer con­
cert given last Thursday evening
by the Ashland Municipal band.
Favorable weather added its bit
to the evening's enjoyment and
the summer concert season got off
to a good start.
Featured on the program was
Bill Alves, who sang two numbers
to band accompaniment. This
proved a delightful diversion from
the regular band music and has
created a demand for other vocal'
selections for which Director Gor­
don Tripp is preparing to present
at future concerts.
Mr Tripp is not going in for
"heavy" numbers in his programs,
at least not in the beginning. He
is making good use of standard
marches, light overtures, sere­
nades and popular numbers, pre­
senting them in an entertaining
manner The first concert showed
the reayjt of intensive practice
and as the season progresses his
instruction will be manifest in the
high quality music presented.
Concert time is 8 o'clock sharp
Programs, used for the first time
this season, include the following
information and requests which,
if closely observed by the audience
will make the concert more enjoy­
able for all:
"This concert is presented for
the entertainment of the guests
of Uthia Park by the City of
Ashland."
"Requests will gladly be played
when possible. Please hand same
to program boys or to any mem­
ber of the band.”
"'Silence is urgently requested
while band is playing, and parents
are asked not to allow the child-
ren to play in front of the band
stand."
"'Automobile owners are re­
quested not to sound horns or
start motors while the band is
playing.”
The band has no fund for pro­
grams and if the practice is to be
continued throughout the season it
will have to be sponsored by indi­
viduals or firms. The Miner Press
provided programs for the first
concert and will gladly cooperate
with others who wish to help
make the band concerts more en­
joyable.

LINCOLN SI MMEK TRAINING
SCHOOL OPENED MONDAY
The Lincoln Training school op­
ened Monday and will continue to
July 10. The session will be one-
half day in length beginning at
9:00 o’clock and closing at 12:00
each day. Monday through Friday.
The summer school offers a real
opportunity for both parents and
children in Ashland. Many activit­
ies and experiences of interest and
value to both boys and girls are
being made available during this
summer session with no cost to
the community or to the parents
of students enrolled.
The children will be given in­
struction in the subject-matter
fields and a fine program of arts,
music, folk dancing and sports is
being conducted. This summer pro­
gram will be of special value to
students to prevent forgetting and
to strengthen the child's school
work generally.
GRADUATES NAMED
TO TEACHING JOBS
The following five seniors who
are recent graduates of the South­
ern Oregon College of Education
have received teaching positions.
They are: Jean Drew of Hilde­
brand, who will teach in Klamath
county: Bertha Wertz of Medford,
who will teach in Klamath coun­
ty: Cyril Sander of Medford, wh >
will teach in the Altamont school,
and Martha Gearhart and Margar­

Ashland's city council, in meet­
ing late Tuesday afternoon, de­
cided against hiring a recreational
manager in connection with enter­
taining the soldiers from Carnp
White. While going on record for
every form of cooperation in pro­
viding recreation for the soldiers,
it waa not deemed necessary to
go to the expense a new office
would create.
Discussion wax prompted by the
proposal of a government official
that Ashland should hire a mana­
ger or director of recreation, but
after hearing a report by G. M.
Green, who recently investigated
recreational setups in other areas,
the council arrived at the conclu­
sion that a manager would not be
necessary inasmuch as the USO
and other agencies already have
been set up for that purpose.
The council took no action on a
proposal that a recreational man­
ager be employed by the city of
Medford or the county. The USO
furnishes a city-wide recreational
program for which funds are pro­
vided by the city or county.
The council has petitioned the
Federal Security Agency to pro­
vide an adequate recreational
building here and also petitioned
the USO to furnish operating and
recreational management person­
nel for Ashland.
A delegation of ladies from the
Civic club, headed by Mrs. Charles
Weaver, attended the meeting, as
did Mrs. Earl Leever, chairman of
the Ashland recreational commit­
tee, and Dr. R. E. Poston, presi­
dent of the Ashland chamber of
commerce and member of the re­
creational committee. The group
presented an agreement whereby
the Civic club would open its
building for a recreation center.
Terms were $50 monthly rental
and agreement that the Federal
Security Agency or other renting
agency would put a new roof on
the building, with the Civic club
reserving use of the building for
meetings by that organization or
other organizations on Wednes­
day. The pioposal will be sent to
the Federal Security Agency,
whose representative had express­
ed favorable consideration for the
clubhouse.

Tentative hunting regulations
