MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MED'OKD, ORKOOX. THURSDAY. DECEMBER 12. IOH.i. PAGE THREE FINAL SHOWINGS OF SHAW.DRAMA "Candida." the dophltlciitd Oorge Bernard fltaw play now betnR prt aented by the ,ctora of the South ern Oregon Normal aohoot witn marked iavor, will pl&y for the laat tlmea tomorrow and Saturday even ings In the ball room of the Llthla hotel In Ashland. While the polished performance of the players haa added moat to the enjoyment of the play, not little of the charm haa been al lowed by the intimate style In which It Is being presented with no stage, seta or propertlea other than a room marked only by a rug and period furniture, the audience being In a single circle about the room. The effect la that of having the play presented In the home. or. more accurately, of witnessing a drama of real life, rather than a play In which the actora have rehearsed their "parts." This feeling of de lightful Intimacy la further carried out by the novelty of serving cof fee to the guests in the lobby at Intermissions. Prof. Angus L. Bowmer. director of the play, has stated that the par ticipants have shown an unusual maturity and insight In their In terpretations of the various roles. "They show finer teamwork than any ether group I have had the pleasure of directing." Professor Bow mer said today. An Interesting thing about the popularity of the Shaw piece Is the fact that almost half of the audi ence each night is made up of persona who have seen the play be fore, but were so atruck by It that they have returned for the second, and even the third, performance. Miss Marjcry McNalr of Beverly Hills, Calif., will play the title roll Friday evening, while Miss Helen Edmlston. well known for her splen did portrayal of the difficult roles of Sorrel. In Noel Coward's. "Hay Fever." and of Portia In Shake speare's "Merchant of Venice." will play the title role on Saturday evening.

It Is to prevent the nomination of Mr. Hoover. That goes vice versa. The strangest mystery to Mr. Roosevelt's fellow travelers on his recent trip was the way Governor Horner of Illinois always wound up In the corner. It happened too often to have been accidental. When Mr. Roosevelt marched Into the Chicago Saddle and Sirloin club for his lunch he had Mayor Kelly and City Boss Nash at his side. No one took the hand of democratic Governor Horner. He marched In be hind and alone. The seating disclosed Mr. Roosevelt flanked by the same Messrs. Kelly and Nash. The governor was seated out In left field some where. There were reports In the preal dentlal party that the governor would try to see the president during the Journey later to Notre Dame. The Idea was that he would make an ef fort for presidential Intervention to establish peace In the democracy of Illinois. Strangely, there was always a crowd around the president during the trip. The good governor had no opportunity for anything but com ment on the weather. The facts lend confirmation to the old story that Kelly and Nash will put someone Into the primary next time against their own party governor. Society and Clubs By JAN KT W KAY SMITH Miss Burr Elected President of Club At the last meeting of the Travel Study club, whose hostess for the day was Mrs. Walter Prazer Brown. MIas Elizabeth Burr was elected president, Mrs. W. G.' Cool, vice president, and Mrs. Harold Grey, secretary. Miss Burr, appearing first on tne afternoon's program, spoke on Ar gentina, reviewing Its early history and Its development up to the pres ent time, stating that the principal Industries, such as cattle-raising, sugar and wine production are usually under foreign control, and that scenic beauty of the country Is much like that of Switzerland, with falls excelling Niagara. Mrs. E. N. Warner, guest of the club, spoke on Ethiopia, a country approximately the size of the com bined area of Italy and France, but little known until two years ago. Her talk was both timely and Inter esting, as she gave a message based on prophecy as viewed by Bible stu dents, who see in the Ethiopian situation today the fulfillment of Biblical prophecy. Mrs. H.
