MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON. TUESDAY. OCTOBER 30, 1934. PAGE TEREK Gleemen Score in Opening Concert at Klamath Falls Society and Clubs Edited by Irva Fewell Edwards By Arthur W. Warnock Harry Poole's gorgeous 600,000 Pelican theater In Klamath Falls was the scene of the first concert of the seuon by the Medford Gleemen last night. A keenly appreciative audience of muBtc lovers gave the Medford men much evidence, in the way of ap plause, of Its approbation and pleas ure for the artistically chosen two hour program that was offered. Really It was the best program the Gleemen have yet given. The men were at their best and James Stevens, the director, was In fine fettle. Like wise the program was well chosen. There was something for every taste among the offerings. Airs of happy tomfoolery, melodies of sentiment, bits that brought back days gone by, tunea that the most casual listener always enjoys. And yet not too much of any one thing. No Indeed. That would have thrown the program out of balance and Mr. Stevens is too wise a program maker to make that unhappy error. There were 15 programmed num bers but calls for encores were so In sistent that one gave up, quite hope lessly, the task of keeping the final count. The first group Included "Winter Song" by Bullard, graceful and flashing with color; "Land Sight ing," that dignified opus by Orleg. so virile in form; and "The Mascot of the Troop" by Victor Herbert, quite different from the other two and captivating in its lilt." And what a rollicking dashing number was "The Trumpeter" by J. Airlle Dix, the first selection of the second group, done with splendid taste. Sigmund Rom berg's "Desert Song," specially ar ranged for the Gleemen by Martha DeSouza, to whom a verbal tribute Is due for her talented showing, was wonderfully appealing with Its de licacy and grace. Whose tender and finer emotions have not been awak ened by "Trees"? There Is something about that exquisite little poem and Its equally exquisite musical setting that plucks one away from the tur moil of human life, for the time be ing, into a realm of serenity and awe that few musical numbers have ever possessed. Well, the Gleemen did '"Trees" better than these ears have ever heard it, to a novel arrangement. Energetic of waltz rhythm and plain tive of melody "Trees" was most touching. Higher excellence tn Its rendition Is quite unthinkable. Sebastian Apollo, the talented ac companist and assistant director, played th quartet from Rlgoletto. Done so well that the audience want ed more. So Mr. Apollo played, with artistic feelit-'g, "Nola" by Arnt. Mr. Apollo by the way, treated the audi ence, before the program began, to the great number "Hungarian Lust spiel Overture" by Keler Bela on ihe Pelican's huge organ. Mr. Stevens took his audience, after a brief Intermission, into quite other realm The next groups were brim ming over with fun and frolic. The first venture into the lani of light ness and laughter was "On the Road CLAUDETTE'S . . . featuring Permanent Waves to suit anybody's pocket book. Call 1518 and ask about them, or stop at 113 E. Main and talk It over. Sommer's Natural Permanent! . All work guaranteed. I to Mandalay" done by all the men with a dash of attack that was capti vating. Mr. Stevens was bubbling over himself with the spirit of the piece as he whipped his forces Into action and the watchful listener strongly suspected the vigorous Stev ens baritone was hard at work with his men even though the director's back was toward the audience. Then came Rudolph Friml's "Allah's Holi- : da" full of color, and fire, and the ater, as Friml's opuses usually are. The group closed with a medley of George Cohan's Melodies. You know, "Mary Is a Grand Old Name," "Re member Me to Broadway" and all those haunting. Jingling tunea that always tickle our ears and get grins on our faces. Had the genial Cohan, himself, been present, he. with that uncanny Instinct for lilt and melody; well, one could easily guess what he would have done. Yessir, he would have stemmed ud and decorated Mr. L5tvnn anri hi Af men. pvivv nn of them, with a Cohan gold medal of ftPDroval. And we are sure if he had no medals to give out he would have heartily approved anyway. Right here Mr. Stevens did his In dividual part. First he Bang "Tramps at Sea" by Herbert Stothart, one of Tibbet's favorite numbers. It tells the story of the upa and downs of the sailor who goes from one ship to another, like the old tramp printer from paper to paper, and who tells his experiences with the salt and savor of the sea. An old sea dog who is wise, witty and droll. A song that fits Mr. Stevens like a glove. He squeezed every particle of comedy and laugh out of It. Klamath Falls people sent up requests for two oth ers which Mr. Stevens also did in ms usual polished way. "I Love Life" and "Brother Can You Spare Me a Dime" Also George Pcckham song the "Old Black Crow" song from Robin Hood with his well known excellence. The last group of songs Included "Stenka Razln," a swashbuckling Cossack song that gave every section of the choir a chance to give good account of itself. Geoffrey O'Hara's "Give a Man a Horse" shows off a male choir to advantage and the ex cellent bass section acquitted itself admirably. The program was fast drawing to a close now. It was op portune that place be given "Wagon Wheels" and "Old Man River." those two perennial favorites, alwaya done so well by the Medford men. and done last night better than they were ever done by those singers. There's something mournful about the melodic fervor of the old wheels and the story of Old Man River and his eternal rolling along; something that clutches. . There's a philosophy and appeal to the Imagination In both those very modern songs that brings back memories, makes one pause and wonder at life's curious meaning, even sweeps one Into un dreamed and faraway times of the future. But Klamath Falls Insisted on more even after this fine finish and so "Shortenln" Bread" and "The ! Bells of St. Mary's" brought the ; memorable program to a close . . . j The Medford gentlemen, a group of natural singers, not boasting of being trained professionally, simply bub bling over with music, merely work ing together as a massed effort to get results, only singing for the sheer Joy, the real pleasure of singing; this famous male choir, under its efferves cent director, who is so refined and intelligent a music Interpreter, had given the best evening's entertain ment of its three years history.

OREGON LEADING NEWSPAPERS ENDORSE DUNNE FOR GOVERNOR Tremendous Impetus Given Dunne's Campaign Through Endorsement by Portland News-Telegram, Oregon Voter and Eugene News. Tremendous Impetus was given to the candidacy of Joe B. Dunne, re publican nominee for governor last Friday when he was enthusiastically endorsed by three publications of state-wide reputation, the Portlano News-Telegram, the largest Indepen dent liberal newspaper in Oregon, the conservative Oregon Voter and Eugene News. Martin Not Peoples' Man. The Portland News-Telegram says: "Martin expediently assumes radi cal tendencies, hoping to appeal to those hard pressed by the times. There is nothing constructive nor economically sane about them. They would be disastrous were they put tn vogue. "As governor of this- state, he would 'be a most dangerous menace to our social and economic wel fare. "Martin's utterances during this campaign have been derogatory to the state and Insulting to Its people. "The statements of hts sponsors have been equally bad. "He Is a partisan throughout ana as governor would conduct a parti san administration. This the people of the state would not tolerate, especially since his backing comes from vested Interests. He was In fluenced Into the gubernatorial con tent by these interests." Dunne Qualified Reprrwnt People. "On the other hand." says the News-Telegram. "Joe E. Dunne u qualified and capable. He Is without a doubt better ac quainted with the point of new ot the average man than any otner candidate on the ballot. "He likes people and he enjoys fraternizing with them. "He has made his own way througn life and knows the hardships of the wage earner. Likewise, he has ex perienced the trial and tribulations of a business man. "He knows Oreg:n and Its peopie. "He is a leader and a natural born bxwter. "He Mr all the qualification to make a good goiernor and be bu our endorsement." regon Voter Endorses Dunne. "We recommend -voting for Joe E. Dunne for governor. He does know the state and Its problems, he is experienced In affairs, he Is singu larly gifted with understanding ot human needs and aspirations, he is instinctively constructive and he is responsive to sincerity of earnestness in appeal." Martin "Obstinate Partisan.' "The reasons we do not regard General Martin as so well qualified as Dunne are all found In the gen eral's public utterances since he be came a candidate for governor and In the statements made In hU be half by his party organ, the Oregon Journal. , "Those utterances and statements reveal an impenetrability to Informa tion and a political fixation which compel us to regard General Martin aa so obstinate a partisan that hts administration as governor would be so colored by 'his partisan prejudices that it would be likely to Involve our state In more difficulty than would an administration by the adaptable polltlciin rhom the re publicans have nominated. "Oeneral Martin seems to have lit tle faith In tho state unless he is elected. Dunne 1a Instinctively con structive and has faith In Oregon. "Months ago Martin was away al.ead. but everywhere he went he lost Totes and everytlme he spoke he lost more votes. Dunne has made lots of friends by personal contact." Eugene News lor Martin. The Eugene News, one of the lead ing up-state dally papers, has de cided to unqualifiedly support Dunne for governor, and says: "After weeks of observation and careful consideration the News has decided to support Joe E. Dunne be cause he knows his state as few men know It. "He has a wide acquaintanceship with tlie people, farmed through his long res.denee In Oregon." ! iPa;d adv.. bv the Jnckwn County t Republican Central Comm;tt.)

TOOK PILLS FOR 30 YEARS, THEN CEREAL BROUGHT RELIEF Mr. Forsythe Endorses ALI. Bran for Constipation Tf you suffer from headachet, loss of appetit and mergy or any oiner 01 ine frequent effect or con. stipation.read this voluntary letter: "After taklnu pills and tablets for about thirty years for consti pation, I started to take your All Bran three times a day according to directions. Today I can eat cheese, and that Is binding, and certainly feel fine." Mr. Ed. For- sytne, uox Z19, Youngstown, N. Y. Science says All-Bran provides "bulk" to exorcise the intestines, and vitamin B to further aid regu lar habits. In addition, All-Bran is rich in blood-building iron. The "hulk" In All-Bran is much like that of leafy vegetables. Inside the body, it forms a soft mass which gently clears the intestines of wastes. Isn't this pleasant "cereal way" far more henlthful than using pat ent medicines so often habit forming? Jr.rt eat two tablespoonfuls dally. In ious caser use with each meal.
