PAOE TTTREFJ HIGH SCHOOL CAST REHEARSING HARD ON OPERA MIKADO Tryouta for the all school produc tion, "The Mikado," to be presented . by students of Medford high school in February, have been completed and the cast Is in full swing of re- ! hearsals. The unusual idea of having an ex change of girts In three of the leads la being used again this year. So much talent was available that two girls are to be alternated, giving more people experience. The part of the Mikado Is to be played by Harold Grove, a senior. He played the lead of the doctor In the Junior High operetta, "Oh. Doctor!" two years ago and also took part in "H. M. 8. Pinafore" last year. Kanki Pooh, son of the Mikado, and in love with Yum Yum. will be portrayed by Bob Nelson. Bob also took part In "Pinafore" last year, Ko Ko. the lord high executioner, will be played by Ed Owens, a junior. Pooh Bah. or the lord high every thing else, is to be played by Mar vin Bnrk. He was also a member of the cast of "Oh, Doctor!" Pish Tush, to be portrayed by Olaf Severson, a Junior, Is one of the comedy characters in the opera. The role of Yum Yum wlll.be taken by Mary Kemv who has taken an out standing part in musical affairs, both in Junior and - senior high schools. Mary also took part In the production of "Pinafore" last year. Plttl Sing, the second little maid, will be enacted by two members of the glee club, who will alternate In the part. Connie Moore, a Junior, will play the part one performance and La Murle Beck, senior, the sec ond performance. Both girls took part In "Pinafore." The part of Peep Bo, the third ward of Ko Ko. will be taken by Doris Rose, another experienced singer. The evil doer of the opera, and per haps the most humorous character Is Katlsha. This part will also be al ternated. Margaret Pennington, a senior, will play the part one night, and Betty Paske. Junior the second evening. With such a cast, a good perform ance ts expected, not only in the exe cution of the solo parts, but also In the presentation of the elaborate chorus numbers. The boys and girls' choruses have been drilling diligently for several weeks under the leader ship of Miss Harriett Baldwin, glee club director, Wilson Walt, leader of the orchestra, and Ralph Burgess. Mr. Burgess has had extensive ex perience in Gilbert and Sullivan pieces, and his assistance has been invaluable. No activity affords a finer avenue for student expression or provides more social training than an all school production such as an opera. Every department of the school is involved and, a splendid training In co-operation is made possible through the combined activities of diversified groups and Instructors. Glee clubs, orchestra, household management class, general Industries class, the Journalism, English, physical educa tion and art departments are all called upon to handle some phase of the production. It has been traditional for many years for high schools to produce Gilbert and- Sullivan comic operas, because of the adaptlblllty of the material to capabilities of young peo ple, the universal appeal of the mu sic and humor, and because of the unexcelled opportunity to give the maximum number of students i chance to participate in a construe tive project. The truly outstanding support of the community given to "H. M. 0. Pinafore" last year, demonstrated the appreciation of the public for auch presentations.

C, gave Medford consider able publicity, It was announced by chamber of commerce officials today. The bulletin, headed "Hugl. Rankin Honored," was written by E. N. Kavanaugh of the forest service and Is being sent to 30 states in America, Alaska, Hawaii, Porto Rico and the Philippine Islands. The story follows: "It was my good fortune on No vember 15 to be in Medford and to represent the regional office at the luncheon complimenting retiring Forest Supervisor Hugh Rankin and his successor, Karl Janoueh. "Citizens of Medford and vicinity, business men and women, army of ficers, representatives of the park servloe and tne forest service. Includ ing among the latter supervisors from the three neighboring forests to the Rogue River, filled the large dining room at t.he Hotel Medford until there was no room left. This tribute speaks highly of the char acter of the men for whom the luncheon was given. "The many years that Hugh Rank in haa represented the forest service In southern Oregon have been years of constructive effort on his part and of work so well and so loyally done as to command the respect of all with whom he came In contact We know that at times he differed In his judgment with some of the influential people In Medford and vicinity but as the years rolled by his Judgment in most instances haa been vlnd tested a nd these people came to this chamber of commerce to tell him how they respect him for what he Is and has accomplished. "The tributes paid to Hugh and the work he has performed as super visor of the Crater forest, and more recently t,he Rogue River forest, could not -help but make one feel proud of the man himself and also of the service which he has repre sented so well. His own response to what was said regarding him was typical of the man, as he tended to belittle his part in the accomplish ments of the past. "The good wishes and offers of co operation extended to his successor, Karl Janoueh, indicate clearly that the people In the Rogue river section are thoroughly sold to forest admin lstratlon: they believe that forest conservation means much to them individually and collectively. Their promise to cooperate to the fullest extent possible wlt.h Janoueh In his ministration , of the Rogue River forest Is indicative that the progress PrevenM dangerou lntr.o,..w.n..r . vvn deliver Jul!
