Symphony Concert
Pleases Large
Crowd Wednesday
A record crowd heard the
Southern Oregon Symphony Or
chestra in concert last evening
at the Medford high school and
enjoyed a departure this year
in concert routine because of
the presence of many young
students.
Opening with the first move
ment of the beautiful melodious
"Unfinished Symphony," the
most famous of Schubert's
works, the audience was favor
ably impressed.
It seemed particularly timely
that John R. Knight, director,
should present the work of an
American contemporary com
poser, Joseph Wagner's Concerto
in G. Minor. This selection re
vealed the hand of one well
versed in the technique of or
chestra procedure and under
standing of instrumental effects.
Refreshingly welcome was
the piano soloist, 13-year old
Roger Wolf, a pupil of Roberta
Ward Bebb, who gave a bril
liant performance of this new
concerto on the Baldwin grand
Diano purchased this year by the
high school.
Master Wolf played with ex
ceptional rapidity as well as
.laritir onrl nhvlnuslv DOSSeSSeS
good musicianship which scored
his success. The orchestral sup
port in the concerto was also
splendid.
The outstanding renditions by
the high school chorus under
ths mnnhlB direction of Miss
Floy Young, proved worthy ad
ditions to the symphony s reper
toire. Thi, rpmaindor of the Droeram
was devoted to Wagner's "Pil
grim Chorus," Massenets "Ele-
nlo' nnrl VprHi's "T.H Travlata."
all performed with praiseworthy
interpretation.
Thi rnnrlndintf number. Tuc-
cl's "Danza Chilcana y Estilo,"
was especially spirited and eag
erly received by the large aud
ience. In answer to the applause,
"Hungarian Dance" No. 8, by
Brahms, was given.
For the marked success 01
thin pnnrurt much credit is due
John R. Knleht the founder and
conductor of the orchestra. With
no thought of platitude, it
should be said that musical Med
ford and the valley is greatly
Indebted to him.
During the evening, A. H.
Banwell spoke briefly regarding
the excellent scries of three
musicals to be presented here
in the near future by Hunt
theaters.
Zonta club sponsored the con
cert.

Ye Poets Cornei
"Gold Star" Mother.
Well we remember, with hearts of
woe.
We walked where the yellow pop
ples blow.
And counted markers, row on row,
In a foreign field so long ago.
The only thought to ease the pain
Was this, they did not die In vain,
For memories of them should never
wane.
Since right prevailed and peace
should relga.
Now, where our soldier laddies He,
War cloud gather and bombers
fly.
Oh. what mockery it la to men.
Tli at the war they fought must be
fought again.
But not by their son, may they
never stand
In the foreign fields of another
land,
To fight for a cause they think Is
right,
For nothing Is settled at all by
might.
Far better to vow neutrality, '
Nor be overcome by sympathy.
And keep out of war, that others
. may see.
The world WOULD be safe for
DEMOCRACY.
By P. Lincoln.
Thanksgiving Day.
You say you want to be
A tall beanstalk,
With gaudy pumpkin shoes,
To make folks talk.
Then you could place
Beneath the blazing eaves
Of gold and silver flecks.
The gayly tied-up sheaves;
The brown cornstalks.
You want a Piper Cub
At close of day.
To bomb salvia's bed
With sunset's ray.
Raise your Thanksgiving prayer
Above the wishing-well
As in my sturdy verse,
This tale I tell.
Mae Stafford.

HEARD BY COURT
The civil suit of Irene Camper
and Lester Camper, 'against W.
A. Albrecht and others, for re-
scindment of a contract involv
ing sale of the Edgewater auto
camp, on the Pacific highway
near Gold Hill, is underway in
circuit court before Judge H. D.
Norton.
By agreement between At
torney George A. Codding, repre
senting plaintiffs and S. Sher
man Smith of Grants Pass, rep
resenting the defendants, the
case is being heard without call
ing a jury.
Twelve witnesses were called
by the plaintiff yesterday,
chiefly in support of the plain-
tiffs' contention there were "mis- j
representations," and equipment ;
of the auto camp was not in first-;
class condition. Witnesses also '
testified to the amount of busi- (
ness handled at the place.
It was expected the defense
would open this afternoon and
present as many witnesses as '
the plaintiffs. Most of the wit
nesses were from the Gold Hill
district. j
Communications
The School Budget
To the Editor:
Now that the park bond elec
tion is over and 1108 of us regis
tered an emphatic NO on it, I
am going to give you anotner
dose that is a whole lot worse.
Our school budget has a far
greater budget amount EVERY
Year that can be eliminated and
not hurt our schools at all, and
I am going to give you some fig
ures and comments on the bud
get to be passed on, and with
these figures bear in mind that
our sewage disposal plant wants
two clocks to tell time by and
that had to be an item in their
budget, and also that when the
average school district wants a
$1000 playshed they have a
BOND ELECTION on it.
So here goes: Section 5 of the
budget is maintenance and re
pairs repair and maintenance
of buildings and grounds, $13,
500; total $17,000. Section 8
reads New Buildings, $15,000;
alteration of buildings, $5000;
new furniture, equipment and
replacements $4000; assessments
for betterments, $4000; other
capital outlays, $2500; total $30,
500. And to cap all this is sec
tion 10: Emergency $5000, or a
grand total of above amounts of
$52,500 and that is not only this
year alone.
The figures of the last six
budgets are as follows:
For repairs and maintenance,
a total of $71,200 and for article
8, capital outlay, $121,800, or a
grand total of $193,000, and in
those figures is included $50,000
for new buildings in the last
three budgets, and not a single
bond election, or even a protest
from anyone.
Now why in the world it
should take a fifth of a million
dollars to keep up our school
equipment in only 6 years after
we gave them almost a full set
of new schools in the last few
years is more than I can see.
Now if you property owners
that voted NO on the park propo
sition really want to protest
i something, be out next Monday
