Cvteriart To Have
Music Presentation
Por several weeks past elaborate
preparations have been under way
to present one of the most spectacu
lar musical stage presentations ever
seen or heard In Medford. It Is ti
tled "Kamennol Ostrow," that fam
ous composition being the central
theme of the prologue.
The stage setting has been built
to portray the Interior of a Jesuit
monastery. High up on the back
ground the moonlight streams
through a massive cathedral win
dow as a cowled monk slowly paces
the ancient monastery floor In medi
tation. The great church organ Is
playing a glorious theme as the scene
progresses.
Gradually the swelling of the mu
sic presages the coming of a mighty
storm and the monk prepares to
sound the great monastery bell in
warning of the approaching hurri
cane. The grand climax cornea when,
amid the tremendous swells of music
and vivid lightning flashes, the toll
ing of t,he great bell can be heard
above everything.
This same musical prologue has
been staged previously in many large
metropolitan theatres by Jack Ret
In w, with tremendous success. Madge
DeLasaux will present the musical
accompaniment. "Kamennol Ostrow"
will be presented at each perform

WALES IN DEDICATION
decision In the new trial pies is an
tic l pa ted.
Whether or not a new witness a
woman will be allowed to testify for
the defense, will be decided Monday
morning, when court resumes. The
court Indicated Prlduy that such a
procedure would re-oien the case,
that it would mean the Introduction
of testimony in rebuttal, and likely
moan "the Issue woulc become in
terminable." The court took the ques
tion under advisement.
The defense refused to reveal the
Identity of the woman, but claimed
she refused to make an affidavit, and
would be a reluctant witness, as to
a conversation with Mrs. Myrtle Ge
Bauer at a meeting of a secret order.
In which the Jurywoman Is alleged
to have expressed prejudice against
Editor Pehl and his publication.
The defense centered its attack on
Mrs. GeBauer and filed affidavits, al
leglng misconduct and prejudice on
her part. Attorney Kelly at one point
scouted Mrs. GeBauer's claim, she
had 'voted for Pehl." and described
her as "a vol liable woman," who "at
tempted to engage me In conversation
during the trial, in the hall, and I
grabbed hold of Allison Moulton,
Parr's attorney, as a matter of pro
tection." A small courtroom crowd heard the
proceedings.
