TARZAN OF APES
Medford got a distinct thrill last
night with the production on the
screen of the astonishing story of
Tarzan of the Apes." The daring
plot was unfolded with such realistic
effect that the audience at the Page
theatre burst into enthusiastic ac
claim at the many startling situations
caughtjiy the camera In the heart of
a forest In wildest Brazil. Of course
the novel that set the world by the
ears was built around a plot laid In
Africa. But the moving picture artist
who screened the production last
night had all the settings necessary
for the scenes, from tho Vigorous ele
phant who pushed over a tree that
stood In his path to the wildest of
lions, tigers, jaguars, crocodiles,
monkeys, upeB, chimpanzees, gorillas
and what not. The wild animals fig
ured all thru the production from the
first act to tho finish.
Gordon Griffith ns Tarzan Ihe boy
was matchless. There was a simplic
ity that was convincing and a naiv
ette that showed the true artist.
Elmo Lincoln as Tarzan the man held
the audience at his heck. Ills won-
lerful agility and muscular powor
wero not a whit better than his emo
tional strength1, shown for all too
brief a spell in the closing scene.
The picture will be shown tonight
und Thursday.

As the fruit of an Idea which orig
inated with Alan Hracklnreed, in the
development of which he bud had the
close co-operation of C. M. Thomas,
a selected class of the cltlzeuB of
Medford and'vicinlly will shortly en
joy the benefits of a locul branch of
the University of Oregon officers'
training school, to be known as the
"Medford Unit" of that Institution.
Arrangements for the establish
ment of the branch school have been
perfected by correspondence between
Colonel Leader, commandant of the
department of military science of the
university, and Mr. Brackinreed, dur
ing the past six weeks. Colonel
Leader's reply to the lnttcr's first let
ter, In which he proposed the estab
lishment of the class under the uni
versity's jurisdiction, Indicates the
value placed upon the proposed work
by tho faculty:
Letter From Leader
"University of Oregon, Eugene,
July 22d, 1918.
"Dear Mr. Brackinreed: Your let
ter of July 20th just received. 1
certainly think that you could not
possibly he doing a greater service to
your country than in the way you
suggest. We are trying to do some
thing of the same sort here in Lane
county, and It will be undoubtedly
of the utmost value. We will be de
lighted to have you do it under the
jurisdiction of the extension work of
the university. I would, when pos
sible, send university officers, and
give you what assistance I could, and
Would come down myself if I could
squeeze In day. The age limit will
not, of. course, remain as it Is at pres
ent very much longer, and when It Is
changed, the full force of your or
ganization will be seen. 1 only wish
there were a hundred such organiza
tions In the state. ,
"I have the honor to be, etc., John
Leader."
To Extend Work
After this encouraging response,
Mr. Brack itireed prbceeded with the
enrollment of prospective members
among the business and professional
men of tho city, and further corres
pondence with Colonel Lender en
sued, In which Jlr. Thomas also took
part, resulting in a broadening at the
Interest taken in the matter by the
university, and tho opening up of a
wider field for the activities of the
movoment. It is now proposed to
spread the organization of local units
thruout tho whole state, upon a uni
form plan which is being developed
thru correspondence, ud which will
involve the formatlou by the univer
sity of a corps of traveling Inspectors
who will go around instructing and
lecturing the units and trnlnlng them
in the higher sciences of war, such
as bombing, bayonetting, field engl
norlng, trench warfare, semaphoring.
judging distances, topography, map-
reading, etc.
Not a Military Hotly
Tho local unit will be a civil stu
dont body, and not a military organi
zation. It Is not Intended to Impose
any military obligation or duties on
the members, or to trench upon the
field occupied by the stnto or national
guards. A captain and lieutenants
will be appointed, who will drill the
members, but after they have mas
tered the usual military drill. It Is In
tended that drill shall be a secon
dary consideration In tho work, and
that first place shall bo given to the
mastery of the higher military
sciences, with tho prime object of
qualifying the members to become
officers and non-commissioned offi
cers to train men In the arts of war
fare. This purpose is clearly ex
pressed in tire name prescribed for
the local branch by tho university,

namely, "University of Oregon Offi

This name will he applied to the dif
ferent units organized In the state.
It Is understood that special facilities
will be given to members of the local
organizations to attend the state
Officers' Training Camps at the uni
versity. 51 gc Limit
While regular membership In the
organization will be restricted to
business and professional men of the
ages of thirty-one to fifty-five (on
June 5, 1917) provision will be made
for the admission of men on the
present draft list, a number of whom
will be charter members of the unit,
and also for the organization of i
junior company of youths under
twenty-one. Tho charter list alreauy
bears the names of more than fifty
business uud professional men of
this city and vicinity, and a formal
organization meeting will be held In
the near future, as soon as the final
word is received from the university
as to the form and limitations of the
'local branch.
In the meantime, the work of out
side organization has been begun In
Ashland and Grants Pass, by Messrs.
Thomas and Brackinreed, and they
expect to push the work of organiza
tion, acting as state organizer and
state secretary respectively, under
the university's authority, In other
communities as fast as practicable.
In this undertaking, they will have
the full cooperation of the university
authorities. Colonel Leader states,
in this connection: "I think the idea
a magnificent one, and any assistance
which my officers or I myself can
give you, you can count on. If the
idea does catch thruout the state,
as we feel certain It will, we will send
out traveling inspectors, either from
the military committee or from the
officers of the university regiment.
One of the chief reasons I have lor
considering that tho matter will be a
success is because you are interested
in it, and propose to give a portion
or your time to it."
Colonel Leader has detailed Lieut.
A. E. Caswell, of the university regi
ment, as acting staff officer in charge
of tho extension work contemplated
by tho organization.
