GRANTS PASS LION
(By lira Fowcll) ,
Depicting the life of tho Chrlstus.
hie Inheritance from seven genera
. Hons, Adolf Fassnacht last eve
ning gave a wonderful portrayal of
the famous character as the lead
ing actor in the Freiburg Posalon
Play, presented by the Freiburg.
Baden. Germany cast In Llthla
park, Ashland, under the sponaor
hlp of the Ashland Chamber of
Commerce.
Fassnacht, who ! recognized
throughout tho world for work In
tho play, resembled the portraits
of the Saviour os palnte.l by fam
ous old-world masters. Otnors In
the cast, especially Mary, the
' mother of Jesus, taken by Elsa
Fassnacht, John the Beloved,
played by Joseph Meier, and Willi
Eltrndt as Judas, brought to mind
the descriptions in the New Testa
ment of these people.
' . , Follow lileul
Tho appearances, characteristics
and actions of the cast and the
settings gave the observer a sat
isfactory enjoyment, probably be
cause it so nearly resembled tho
Imaginary representation of the
events go outstanding in Ulblicai
history. ' ' '
Stage settings wore designed by
Adolf Fassnacht, and excellent
lighting arrangements added to
tho effect of many of the tableaux.
The first appearance of Jesus
In the production was his tri
umphal entry Into Jerousalem,
where he was acclaimed by the
multitudes. The conference hold
by the scribe and priests to plot
against hlin, his farewell and de
parture from Bethany and Judas'
first consultation for the betrayal
wore covered , In the opening
' scenes.
Ono of the most beautiful pic
tures In the production was that
of the Ijist Supper, where the
twelve were gathered with Jesufl,
and the hours of anguish on Mount
Olivet, followed by his betrayal and
capture.
Outstanding- riinrnnters
Judas was, a character to.be
' pitted as he begged for the releise
of Jesus, and his hurling of ihe
thirty pieces of silver at the feet
of the priests when he realised his
mistake too late, was a superb bit
of acting. Christ's appearance ;oe
fore Pilate and King Herod, iihn
mocking crowds and their deromd
for the freedom of Barrabbas were
also outstanding. .
Climaxing the work of tho priests
to rid Judea :of Christ, was his
crucifixion at Golgotha, along with
the two thlevos, mldM. the storm
and earthquake. Thb glorious res
urrection and triumph of the Sav
iour concluded the play, with the
large choir singing the "Hallelujah
Chorus," as a tableau of the risen
Christ was given.
The Freiburg players are being
assisted by a large number of val
ley people who comprise the
chorus and orchestra, under the
direction of Ralph V. van Court
right. By special arrongement th,
"Members of 'the Grants Pass
Uons club voted nt Thursday
noon's luncheon meeting to close
up the affairs of the organization
at next week's meeting," says the
Grants Puss Courier. "The" action
followed two weeks discussions of
the club's attendance and value to
Its members and the community.
t "Undoubted benefits to members
who nttend regularly did not over
balance lack of benefits to other
members who Joined only to at
tend Irregularly and then drop
out, It was decided, and the vote
by ballot revealed a disinclination
to continue the meetings. " '
"Membership. In the club, had
been cut to 25 recently In an ef
fort to eliminate non-attending
members. The club properties and
funds In the treasury will be con
sidered at next Thursday's meet
ing, and .disposition of money on
hand decided."

and unemployed - today, .a contri
bution from- the Batanga church
Ifi Cameroun, West Africa, whlch
raised the money a eocoanut

.The Rev. Albert Good, Presby-U
terian missionary- at' Cameron n,
sent the money to the board of
foreign missions here,' explaining
that the Bulu tribe's newspaper,
"Mcfou" had published an article
saying: - -
"There are ' actually people 1n
America who do not have enough
to eat."
Pastor Edumb-Musambi and his
son, a church elder, concluded aid
must be forthcoming to the United

festival. The $3.77 raised was
turned over to Dr. Good, who wrote
to the missions board, "perhaps
you will be able to multiply this
sum."
