JUNIOR PLAY SELECTED The play chosen to be presented by this year's junior class is a three act comedy farce, "Melodrama in Nankipoo." It is to be given March 18, at the high school gym-auditorium. The following cast has been selected: Marjorie Landis, Mary Jane Casteel; Mr. Landis, Robert Scriv ner; Mrs. Landis, Bethal Blake; Aunt Mary, Juanita Phelps; Helen Ste vens, Sibyl Howell; Jimmie Barlow, Bill Barratt; Jack Dixon, John Craw ford; Horace Bilgewater Dilling ham, Omer McCaleb; Miss Kelly, Frances McCarty; Von Blagden, Joe Aiken; Burke, Leland Edmondson. The action of the play revolves around a group of small town peo ple trying to battle their way to the glamorous motion picture metrop olis Hollywood. Horace Bilgewater Dillingham, a local "genius," writes a "melodramatic masterpiece" in which he employs the age old mort gage theme with Simon Legree, Lit tle Nell, and all the over-acting, vil lainous gloating, and other laugh provoking characteristics so remin iscent of by-gone days and by-gone plays. With the people of the town as actors, Horace's play is to be pre sented before a famous motion pic ture director who is to decide on their ability to act. However, two or three of the characters, very much annoyed at the way events are transpiring, plot secretly to change the play around so as to make it ap pear as ludicrous as possible. Farmers to Plan Future In County Conferences Not what Oregon farmers can grow nor even what they would like to grow, but rather what can be grown and sold at a profit now and in the future will be given detailed study at a forthcoming series of 36 county agricultural economic con ferences, starting the last week in January and continuing to early in March. As a result of similar conferences held over the past 15 years, many changes have been made in Oregon agriculture which were planned in advance to meet changing conditions. A review of past findings in the light f recent developments and improved farm home life in future agricultural development are objectives sought in the new series of conferences, ac cording to farm leaders and 0. S. C. extension men in charge of advance plans. "With some curtailment of some of our crops apparently in the off ing, Oregon producers are faced with the question of what to grow in or der to maintain and continue to in crease the state's agricultural in come," says F. L. Ballard, vice-director of extension, in commenting on the value of such conferences. "Oregon is a relatively new state in many phases of its agriculture. The last 15 years have seen a tremendous adjustment in production in Oregon. "We have seen the small seed bus iness approach a four million dollar volume. Here we have no surplus crop, and one which will stand long shipment because of its concentrated form. We have seen the turkey bus iness grow to approximately one million birds annually, in competi tion with all the turkey states there are. We have seen apples drop from 70,000 acres of trees down to 20,000, and pears increase from 10,000 to 25,000 acres at the same time. "In every county of the state, far mers themselves, in cooperation with the extension service, will give these and other adjustments review in the light of new conditions." January conferences are: Linn, January 24; Josephine, January 25; Jackson and Marion, January 26; Douglas and Washington, January 27; Coos and Yamhill, January 28; Clackamas and Curry, January 29.
