MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON. FRIDAY, PRIL 22, 1932. PAGE SEVEN I E By Jeunesae Butler. That Medforda musical season. In augurated last fall by the local chairman and committees, working in connection with the Civic Music association of Chicago, has been sue. cessful. and that the closing concert last evening was a brilliant culmi nation, la the general pronounce ment. The concerts, five we believe In all. have been well attended, each " one considered the outstanding so- rial, aa well as musical event el ' the week In which It took place. Thla success represent much ef fort. Interest, and co-operation. Greater effort may be needed to continue next year, but with the success of the season Just ended for encouragement, as well aa other In dications, those most interested are confident of the completion of their plans. Miss Coe Glade, American-born and American-trained contralto of the Chicago Civic Opera company, and her excellent accompanist, gave a thoroughly satisfying musical. The singer, young, graceful, and most attractive, with a gorgeoua voice and marked dramatic ability, gave generously of her talents. Her program, kind to American composers, was sufficiently varied, for an audience not altogether as one In Its musical preferences. Five encores were given. Unnecessary to dwell upon tone, range and other vocal requisites of a singer so uni versally and recently placed with the great contraltos of the world, we would like to mention Miss Coe'a very Individual mannerlsma in the way of posture and gesture. Man nerisms quite the opposite from unpleasant, for they added a touch to the atage picture, as well as lend ing assistance In the Interpretations. Regarding this latest star of the concert and operatic .firmament, we would say, "here Indeed, Is an Indi vidual, an artiste, who la bringing and will continue to bring out. her own Ideas, not those of tradition." Mr. Rhodes appeared three tlmea aa soloist, and once as composer. Miss Coe'a last encore being "Be tween Two Hills," words by the American poet. Carl Sandburg and music by Mr. Rhodes. The piano for last night's concert, an Ivera and Pond grand, was loaned by Palmer's Music house, aa all concert instrument of the sea son have been, and much apprecia tion of the muslo house's co-operation was voiced last night by offi cers of the southern Oregon branch of the Civic Music association.

Marie Dressier Laughs at Old Age; Past 60, Movie Star Feels She's 20 I - rSvX f Middle age Is the best part of life, take it from Marie Dressier, ntio is past 60. but who says she feels aa thouch she were Just approaching her twentieth birthday. The film star Is shown above as she appears In real life and on (he screen. BLUNT WARNING (Continued trom Page One) HOLLYWOOD (AP) It's a foolish woman who folda up her hunda at 50 with the Idea that "life U over" and lfa a foolish one. too. who tries to hide her age behind flapper paint and gown.v So believes Marie Dressier, film star, who Is past 60 and proud of It. . "I don't know anything that Is much more pitiful, even tragic, than the middle-aged woman who slumps back under the 'weight' of her per haps 50 years," Miss Dressier says with conviction. "They are such fools. As soon as their families have grown and their hair turns gray they quit." Miss Dressier doesn't believe In quitting, or even in being tired more than absolutely necessary. Despite clouds and rain that darkened the day, she seemed to be especially young and gay during this conversa tion about her "unagelng age." "Why if thoBe middle-aged ladies Just knew It," she said, "life is Just beginning for them. Finally their responsibilities are over. They can quit sacrificing for their children. They can live for themselves. I feel younger today than I did at 35. I didn't really begin to live until I was 60." Years ago Miss Dressier was a star on the stage, quite a famous one, too. With advancing years she lost much of her popularity, and then began her race with age. mlnatlon not to let the public forget her. She kept on working, although she reached and even passed middle-age during her "comeback" trials. She never thought of quitting because of age because "age ts a state of mind." "I wish I could stand on the house tops and shout to all women, 'Don't dread middle age. Look forword to it Instead. It's the best part of life"; she said, and she meant It. "Youth doesn't depend on outside appearance. Zt comes from within. I may look a well-preserved 60 but inside me I know I'm Just approach ing my twentieth birthday. "And another thing, I'd like to say a word or two about this trylng-to-look-young business. There's no fool like an old fool, and the silliest thing In the world Is a middle-aged woman trying to look and dress and act like a flapper."

"We are unable to understand what these warlike preparations mean," he said. "The situation la becoming serious. Russia Is concentrating four dlrlskms In Siberia on the Manchu rlan border. We can only wait and see whether the storm breaks." "Zt Is time the Japanese made up their minds to cooperate wholeheart edly with the new regime In Man churla for the establishment of a great civilization In the Par East." he continued. Objections Flonted. The League of Nations or Soviet Russia may attempt to frustrate our efforts, alnce both object to our ac- tlvltlei in that region, but they won't be permitted to turn us from our course. It is unnecessary for us to heed what they say about us." "A certain country Is talking about applying the nine-power treaty In Manchuria. Japan will resolutely op pose such an attempt.

F E CLAIM BACKED BY (Oontluued trum Page One) of the same club as Mrs. OeBauer. Pehl's counsel said: "We are not In a position to make her name known now." They further stated "ahe shuns the notoriety of testifying. Because of the eleventh hour dis covery no decision In the new trial motion will be forthcoming until Monday or later. The defense, with B. K. Kelly as spokesman for Fahl's counsel, cen tered 1U attacks upon asMrted state menu of Mrs. OeBauer, the alleged prejudlc of the Jury as a whole, the residence of Anderson Mee, a Juror, and alleged errors of the court In tta Instructions. Entire Jury Tlted Attorney Kelly in his remarks charged that "Mrs. OeBauer was vol uble and prejudicial." and that after the "verdict ahe unrestrainedly rushed to congratulate Parr and boasted 'I turned the trick.' " The defense also charged that their affi davits showed the entire Jury was prejudicial to Editor Pehl and "de sirous of putting his psper out of business by their verdict." They charged that their affidavits one filed today by B. W. Miller of Applegate showed that Anderson Mee was a resident of Josephine county and that he .had been ex cused from Jury service for this reason. The defense also held that Its object "was to purge and clean the Jury system In Jackson county." The plaintiff held that the counter affldaviu wlU show that the allega tion against Mrs. OeBauer were "ex aggerated," and filed by renters, em ployee of renters and supporters and friends of Pehl; that the Jury "com posed of honorable and honest citi zens was unprejudiced," and that Anderson Mee thought he was a real dent of Jackson county; that he had voted In a Jackson county precinct for 12 years, and that his home Is less than 100 feet across t,he line in Josephine county. The legal phases of the case are many and varied, the court ruling that kindred affidavits filed In the Albert W. Reed trial motion oould be argued, "but trust to the court to winnow the extraneous matter. The legal arguments will center about the Oregon law, that after ft verdict is rendered the residence of a Juror is Immaterial, and the law point that If affidavits are at vari ance all are unconsidered. In t,he case of Nledermeyer, Ine against Pehl for the collection of a mortgage against the publication, the court issued an order that Nleder meyer, Inc., fix the date when as slgnment of note and mortgage was) made by L.
