Singing m they had never amis
before (In the words of many mem
bers of the audlenoe) with a spirit and
flnease which reflected month of
training under the splendid leader
ship dt James Stevens, as well as an
unlimited love of song, the Medford
Gleemen appeared last night at the
high school auditorium In their Ursz
concert of the season.
Inspired by the masculine inter
pretation of a wisely chosen program,
the capacity crowd applauded again
and aain. bringing into the even
ing's entertainment such old favor
ites .as "Sylvia," "River Jordan,"
"Shortnin' Bread" and "The Bella of
St. Mary's."
Particularly Interesting and effec
tive In a dramatic way was what the
program described as "A Potpourri
of Negro Spirituals." with an orig
inal prelude, impressionistic of native
Jungle music, interludes and arrange
ments by Almus Prultt.
"Aframerica" the number was ap
propriately entitled. A darkened
stage preceded Its opening, then the
weird drumming of the Jungle waj
i heard as the white vests of the sing
ers formed ghostly tier upon the
stage, while the music alone con
tlnued. The flashing of lights was
accompanied by a burst of song and
the voices moved into such numbers
as "Nobody Knows the Trouble I See"
end "Joshua Fit the Battle of Jerlco."
Another number, with a pleasing
original touch was "The Last Round
Up." arranged for the Gleemen by
4 Sebastian Apollo. The much sung
song of the range took on new char
acteristlcs. and proof of its worth was
realized in the applause which fol
lowed immediately after the lMt
strains of "get along, little dogle,
get along."
In "Cornfield Melodies" and a
chorus from Robin Hood, the evlo
work of M. E. Olson, tenor, and George
Peckham, basso, won much praise for
the two well-known Medford singers,
Sebastian Apollo, assistant director
and accompanist, added a much an
tlclpated piano solo, "Rrgoletto." by
Verdi, to the program, and responded
to the enthusiastic Insistence of the
audience with "Manhattan Serenade'
as encore. The latter was played from
his own transcription, and was a
thing of beauty.
James Stevens, who appeared the
perfect showman and director
throughout the evening, urging his
singers on to express finer things than
their voices had previously given, did
, not sing a solo, which has come to
be a much expected part of Gleemen
programs. It was the one disappoint
ment of the evenine for many people.
Fletcher Fish, however, entertained
L again with one of "Doc" Butler's or
" Iglnal compositions as a surprise num
ber, offering this time an invitation
to the world to attend "Oregon's Dia
mond Jubilee" here next summer, and
the verdict of the audience was "All
who hear will be on hand" for a good
laugh at least. And to hear the Glee
men. who have become one of the
Rogue River valley's best assets.

Interest at heart, go unthanked,"
Roscoe C. Nelson at a meeting pf the
Junior chamber of commerce here
last nlg,ht, urged that "we develop
a sentiment to thank worthy men for
good public service."
'I like to see you single out men
for recognition this way," Nelson
said at the banquet honoring Worth
W. Caldwell as Portland's first Jun
ior cltliren of the past year.
"I know of many men who have
foresworn public service, because
there was no encouragement," said
Nelson who resigned as chairman of
the state board of higher education
after a bitter battle of words with a
University of Oregon faculty mem
ber. "Ti'iey get criticism. Insults and
Jibes from the opposition, and little
or no thanks or recognition from
those who should have patted them
on the back and told them they were
doing a good Job."
"Dr. Knox' report on liquor con
trol, for example." he said, "is an
honor to the city of Portland, is a
finer work than the Rockefeller re
port. He has gotten nothing but
Jibes for It, but it Is the only plan
possible which would not open the
way to return of prohibition. Such
men deserve support."
