Ninth Celebration of Music Week Scheduled for May 1-7 Music Is keeping step with the march of the times with regard to the plans for making the ninth National Music Week, May 1-7, an Impressive Illustration of music's place in human life. That movement, which represents "music of the peo ple, for the people and by the peo ple," Is this year being shaped so that the Music Week may be an ob jective for the development of activ ities which will stimulate the use of music as a salutary form of recre ation during the present emergency. Local committees In the more than 3,000 cities or towns observing Nat ional Music Week are making con tact with people In their natural group environments so that tfiey may be helped to experience the Joy of self-expression through music. Adults as well as young people are being led to realize that. In these trying timea, a highly satisfying emotional outlet as well as a positive force la to "Hear music, make music, enjoy music." "Music week la expected to render more service to music this year than ever before In the eight years of lta history," such is the declaration made , when announcing the new plans, by C. M. Tremaln, secretary of the Ntalonal Music Week committee. "Music la never a more vital force In human life than It Is In a time of stress such as the present. Although Music Week may be considered by some as being merely a peiod of one week In which the public Is asked to 'give more thought to music,' It Is mucb more than that. It represents In the various communities a peeiod of two or three months In which 'all sorts of groups get together to prepare for their own participation in the local Music Week. Moreover, many of those groups experience such pleas ure in that preparation that, follow ing Music Week, tney frequently de termine to make such musical activi ties a permanent feature of their group life. The Music Week on May 1-7 will therefore not merely be Il lustrative of the value of music In an emergency such as the present but It will be' the stimulant of many musical activities which will con tinue after thla emergency has pass ed. It Is therefore to be hoped that the coming Music Week will be ob served as widely as possible in order that it may be a strong llfe-enrlah-lng factor In our national situation." Along with the above keynote of I the 1932 Music Week, it Is suggested by Mr. Tremalne that that period be utilized by various communities as Many Festivities Announced For Girls' League Week Here By Foresteen Walker ' Starting on Monday, April 4, the girls of Medford high school will cele brate their annual Girls' League week.

HIGHWAY BEAUTIFUL PLANS OUTLINED AT A meeting of the central county committee of the Samuel Hill con test for the ueautlflcatlon of the Pa- , clflc highway was held recently at ' the Hotel Medford. Chairmen and ( members of local committees from points along the highway attended ; and discussed Interesting plans for j work to be done in the cext few I weeks. 1 A circular letter has been given to i chairmen of the different commit- I tees to be distributed In each com- j munlty, telling the purpose of this work. The first prlzeln this contest i Is 9500, second prize 1200. It Is necessary that the property owners on the highways give their co-operation to enable Jackson coun- j ty to win first price. Chairmen of committees outside of Medford are as follows: j A. T. Lathrop, Box 218 Central ' Point. Ore. Jno. Anderson, Central Point, Ore. : Tony Ross. Box 664. Gold Hill, Ore.

' r l the time for carrying out some pro ject for meeting whatever may be an outstanding musical need In the giv en towns. "Music Week will be a propitious time for such local ef forts," says Mr. Tremalns, "In that the spotlight of nation-wide atten tion will be thrown upon music throughout the observance. This should stimulate public response to the local projects whether it be for additional musical equipment for the schools; the providing of a scholar ship enabling a local high school stu dent to attend, or summer music camps: the securing of more associ ate members for a choral or instru mental society; the enrolling of more subscribers for a concert series, etc. The economic situation of local mu sicians should also be taken Into ac count. Of course, all such efforts will be In due relation to the para mount urgency of general unemploy ment relief." Further governmental recognition of the Music Week movement is seen In the addition of several state or territorial governors to the honorary committee for the celebration, which Is headed by President Hoover, and which Includes the governors of nearly all the states. Those addi tions include the following: George W. P. Hunt, Arizona; Ruby Laffoon, Kentucky; Sennett Conner, Mississip pi; A. Harry Moore, New Jersey: Ar thur Sellgman, New Mexico; George White, Ohio; Gifford Plnchot, Penn sylvania; George A. Parks, Alaska, and Paul M. Pearson, Virgin Islands. Such official endorsement of the movement is represented each year in the Issuing by the governors of a proclamation or public statement in honor of Music Week. That action was taken last year by 25 of the gov ernors. Program features of the celebra tion will be presentations of Amer ica's history as expressed in music. Bulletins containing suggestions for such features may be obtained upon request to the National Music Week Committee, 45 West 45th St., New York City. One of these high lights of the music week la to be a celebra tion of the 100th anniversary of the writing of "America," by Dr. Samuel F. Smith. Another is a special trib ute to "The Star Spangled Banner," on the basis of Us now being our national anthem.

(SpM Further proof of the speed and econ omy of the new Plymouth with float ing power engine mountings comes from the far-off Philippines, where a stock Plymouth four-door sedan re cently captured the speed record for the islands, according to word re ceived here recently by H. G. Moock. general sales manager of Plymouth Motor corporation. Speeding from Manila to Bagulle and return 347.37 miles In the rec ord time of six hours and 52 minutes, the Plymouth sedan averaged more than 60 miles per hour. This record Is most Impressive, In sofar as the road was in compara tively poor condition and the last 32-mtle leg of the Journey was a continuous climb, the city being 4800 feet above sea level. The run was the subject of much comment In Island newspapers as records heretofore have been attained only by cars In much higher price ranges. This marks the first record of this kind to be captured by a car in the lowest-price field. The new Plymouth models are now being displayed, by Eakln Motor com pany.

DANGER OF HALT IN PARK HIGHWAY A The news sent out from the Ore gonlan's news bureau at Washing ton. D. C, yesterday that it la un derstood that Secretary Wilbur has recommended a reduction of 15.000, 000 from the Interior department ap propriation bill, and as favoring the abolishment of the three government land offices in Oregon, ana eliminat ing all road construction in the fed eral parks, including Crater Lake park, 1 s rather dlscomfltlnn t o I the friends of that park and to Mid- lord business men. In the absence of Superintendent E. C. Solinsky, who Is en route to Hot Springs, Ark., to attend the con vention of national park superin tendents, from where he will go on to Washington, D. C, for a week's stay, Chief Ranger Canfleld yester day fw.!d that nothing was known about the matter here beyond the Oregon iuq dispatch. However, he waa Inclined to think that Secretary Wilbur In his reported recommendations, only referred to opposition to undertaking any new road construction In the federal parks, and did not have the finish ing of the rlm road units In mind. Canfleld pointed out that construc tion of this new rim road, the first unit of which was completed last season. Is one of the major Improve ments In the federal parks' program for this year, which means that it will be favored over lesser contem plated toad Improvements in national parka. Just how Crater national park will fare in road and other appropriations thla year will probably not be known until Superintendent Solinsky's re turn home.

MILLIONS OF POUNDS USED BY OUR GOVERNMENT E L An additional ten days In which to file a motion for a new trial, hu been granted Attorney Cius Newbury and Attorney Don Newhury, counsel for Albert W. Reed, Denver, under life sentence In state prison upon conviction of slaying Victor Knott. Ashland policeman, ln.st November. Pressure of other lefial buMn&w and the unearthing of new evidence r't's been advanced by t!ie dt,fpne as the reason for seeking more time. The defense Is exrected to base Its plea upon new evidence that Roy Lymon. companion of Knott on the fatal trip, was unable to furnish any description of the killers a short time afterwards. Laymon positively Iden tified Reed as the "trlRRer man," In his testimony. Reed contended that his companions, Paul McQuade and Lee Jackson committed the crime while he was searching for them, after they became sop era ted In Ash land. The defense claims to have found a witness who will Identify and corroborate Recti's contention that he was in an Ashland ham burger stand when the alarm of the killing was spread. District Attorney George A. Codding said Saturday trie motion for a new trial will be reslstod and that the state would attempt to controvert any new testimony. The state, the district attorney said, would show that Pa liceman Laymon gave a description "a half hour after the murder on which the search was bused." Advices received by local author ities state that Reed Is a cheerful and model prisoner with high hopes of a new hearing and freedom.
