COMMITTEES FOR
LEGION POST ARE
NAMED FOR YEAR
Judging from the enthusiasm
shown at the last meeting of Medford
Post, No. 15, last Tuesday night, local
legionnaires are going to go places
and do things during tlie coming
year. A comprehensive program of
activities was outlined by the newly
elected post commander, Joseph F.
Fllegel, who stated that special atten
tion will be paid to community ser
vlco during the year.
One of the first efforts along this
line will be a local campaign to get
out a record vote In the coming elec
tion. The Amtrlean Legion has la
bored diligently In the past to urge
every citizen to exercise his right of
franchise and this year's endeavors
should show some tangible results.
A new school awards committee was
appointed and a series of contests
with suitable awards will soon be an
nounced to the students of local edu
cational Institutions. Capt. O. L.
Overmycr was appointed chairman of
the . military training committee
which will start work at once on giv
ing proper publicity to this Import
ant measure which will ba voted on
In Oregon this fall.
Cass Wymore reported on the Ar
mistice Day program and stated that
his committees were already functlon-
Ign and that present Indications point
to a splendid entertainment. All vet
erans and citizens of southern Oregon
are urged to reserve Nov. 11th for one
of the biggest and best patriotic cele
brations ever held In this locality.
