GUILD SHOW WINS OF LARGE Capturing the members of the audience on their first peep through the curtains, which opened to reveal a atudlo, a maid, a man and the voloe of a babe the three-act farce, presented last night at St. Mark's Oulld hall under direction of Tom Swem, held the large gathering under the Intoxication of good, old sparkling mirth, through the grand finale, when Mrs. Jemes Stevens (Aunt Maria) exclaimed "Bless Hla Little Heart," title of the rollicking comedy, to be presented undor auspices of the Altar Oulld again tonight. Each, member of the cast added a necessary something to the spon- taneoua flashes of laugh-provoking wit, which sprung from the mouths of Mrs. Stevens and her aea captain sweetheart, Caleb Clayton, none other than Medford'a old favorite of ama teur theatricals Fletcher Fish. Although aged by a very realistic goatee, graying locks and a full grown nephew, the two appeared the perfect lovers, slaves to an un- surmountable streak of Jealousy, which added much to the humorous situations, arising from an attempt of the younger generation to fool the old folks. The babe, although he never ap peared upon the stage, except In voloe, formed the lesdlng compli cation of the plot, which moved along with breathless rspldlty from Inviting beginning to nuarious enu-lng. Th babe'a mother. Muriel, also a successful Interior decorator, waa pleasingly feminine and sufficiently business-like, as portrayed by Ellow Mae Wilson, local eololat, who sur prised the Medford audience with her handling of the theatrical role. Jack Danbury, the husband and father of the baby, at Infrequent Intervals, was milt the dapper young bond aaleeman In the per- aon of Frank VanDyke. who also showed the local audience that In the new blood, there la also talent. Harold OeBauer. the Junior mem ber of the cast, heaped additional proof upon this contention. In the dsshlng role of Billy Melrose, whose demands for a Roman aenator were only surmounted by hla need for a wife to satisfy the extra allowance granted by hi loving Aunt Maria. Mr. Harold Pearson, as the cnarm- Ing and Irresistible actress, Betty Smith, lived up to the fine reputa tion, which preceded her arrival In Medford from the Community theater of 8anta Barbara, where ahe participated in ivumeroua theatrical affairs. Th slsge settings and direction of the farce brought much praise to Tom Swem from the capacity crowd. Costumes from Ethelwyn B. Hoffman's were also the subject of approving chatter. Between act muslo from the Vic tor combination, donated by Palmer's Music House waa enjoyed. Th committee on arrangementa. which also added greatly to th suc cess of th evening, was composed of Mrs. Porter J. Nelf and Mrs. Royal B. Bebb. How They Stand (By the Associated Press.) American.

Travel Into Crater Lake national park so far this season has reached a total of 6,526 visitors arriving In 3,053 automobiles, Including motor ists from distant states. The travel of the past two weeks has been through the south or Klamath en trance, where roads were cleared earlier due to a lesser snow depth. Efforts are steadily going ahead to open the Medford or west entrance as early as possible, but are being somewhat delayed by storms of the past two weeks. In motoring to Crater Lake, auto lsts are assured one of the rarest trips of the year in view of deep snow still on the ground, reaching a depth of 17 feet in the rim area and from 40 to 60 feet in drifts. The park service has arranged adequate parking space at the rim. Steps have been carved out of high banks to permit visitors to easily climb to the top to view the lake in Its superb winter covering. Quite a number of winter recre ation tats have been making use of hills near the rim for skiing and to bogganing, the snow being In an ex cellent condition to encourage fast time. W. C. T. U.
