ASHLAND, My 17. (Spl.) Ilv.
members of the City Council roted
Wednesday to permit Ashland beer
parlor to remain open until 1 o'clock
In Mis morning. Instead of closing
t 13 o'clock, midnight, while one
councilman favored closing at the
earlier hour.
Members of the Ashland Ministe
rial association have urged council
men to close the parlors at midnight,
Instead of permitting them to remain
open until 1 o'clock In the morning,
which la permissible under the state
liquor laws.
The councllmen were requested by
the ministers In a resolution for a
personally recorded vote on the sub
ject. After a conference with beer
dealers of the city, five councllmen
concluded that the law should re
main unchanged and the parlors
should be permitted to remain open
until 1 a. m.
The one member of the council
who favored closing the beer parlora
at 13 o'clock was Dr. O. W. Gregg.
It was generally agreed that the
weaker beer, of 8.8 per cent which
will be sold in July, would partially
solve the principal objections to keep
ing open until the late hour.
A committee from the council,
which met with Ashland beer dealers
last week reported that virtually each
dealer declared he would suffer severe
llnanclal losses If he were forced to
close at midnight.
The traveling public, as well as
Ashland residents, the dealers con
tended, would drive outside the city
limits or to Medford after midnight,
where beer may be sold with sand
wiches or meals until 1 o'clock In the
morning.

SHERWOOD, S1E1ETT
SENIOR CLASS PLAY
In the production of the senior
play, 'Take My Advice," to be pre
sented at the high school auditorium
May 23, the role of Jimmy Samson, &
young man whose business Is waking
up towns, Is to be taken by Bob
Sherwood.
Mr. Sherwood is credited with hav
ing valuable experience on the stage
through his career In Medford high,
Since his entrance he has been a
member of the Dramatic club and has
taken an active part In their presen
tations. He very oleverly carried
leading role in the Dramatic club
play, Tarklngton's "The Ghost etory,1
given this year. Among his other ac
tivities in school hsve been band, or
which he was president In 1933; the
Latin club, the orchestra and the
Studont council.
The feminine role opposite Mr.
Sherwood is carried by Miss Suzette
Stennett, who portrays Vlrgy Maiv
nlon, a snappy young miss of 18 who
Is quite capable or handling any situ
atlon.
Miss Stennett has also been a mem
ber of the Dramatic club for a num
ber of years and played with Mr. Sher
wood before In a student body pro
duction. She also acted In the Dra-
matlc club play, "Mrs. Oakley's Tele-
phone." Belonging to the Commercial
olub and the HI Times and Crater
staffs, she has proved herself efficient
in varied lines of endeavor, in sne
Latin club play of last year she slso
held a leading part.
The plot of the play revolves around
a newspsper office In the town of
Eureka, which Is controlled snd dom-
nated by a powerful man called Mr.
W&rgrlm. Miss Vlrgy Mannlon Is em-
oloved In the office of her brother,
who Is the editor. She meets Mr.
Samson when he comes to town In
the Interests of the Blckley Slogan
company which, through the workings
of Jimmy, la going to "put aureus
on the map." Complications arise
when Mr. Samson tries to sell his Idea
to Mr. Wargrlm.
The play Is being directed by Miss
Doris Baler, who Is very ably taking
the place of Ralph Bailey, who has
coached the plays in previous years

(Continued rroi vage one)
lis E. Mahoney, young ind militant
anti-power trust" candidate, present
mayor of Klamath Palls, and former
mayor of the town of Tekoa, Wash.
Two Withdraw.
Although the ballot will carry the
names of seven candidates for the Re
publican nomination as governor.
only five remained actively in the
race today. Two had withdrawn.
Among those to conclude active cam
paigns tonight were Ulysses Grant
McAlexander. a West Point classmate
of Congressman Martin, and like Mar
tin, a retired major-generol. Ms
Alexander, who never before had en
gaged In political combat, established
a precedent In political campaigning
by forgetting his adversaries within
his own party and concentrating a
bitter attack on Mahoney, General
Martin's opponent.
Many of those claiming political
prescience concluded that the Repun.
llcan race for the governorship waa a
neck-and-neck race between Joe B,
Dunne, state senator from Portland,
and Rufus O. Holman, atate treasurer.
Frank Lonergan, Portland attorney,
and Sam H. Brown, Gervala farmer,
both atate senators, were making
strong closing campaigns, as was Mc
Alexander.

ent, was opposed for re-nomlnatlon

(western Oregon) by J. M. uevers.

Democrats, W. A. Delzeu or oaiem,
John D. Goes of Marshfteld and R. R
Turner of Dallas, sought the nomina
tion of that party.
Walter M. Pierce of LaGrande, con
gressman from the second (eastern
Oregon) district, was unpopposed for
re-nomlnatlon, but either David F.
Graham of Vale or State Senator Jay
H. Upton of Bend will oppose him in
the eeneral election In November.
In the third (Portianoi district,
the five Republicans seeking the con
gressional nomination were J. E. Ben
nett, cltv commissioner; iwuwfc .
