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.

IS BROADCAST IN
FOREST BULLETIN
A United States forest service bul
letin recently published in Washing
ton, D. 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
