Seen.
Interest 1 increasing this
week in the preparations for the
annual fiesta of the Jackson
County League of Women which
is to be given next Wednesday
evening in the gardens of the
Porter J. Neff home on Berkeley
Way. Postponed from the pre
ceding night due to a conflict
with the lecture appearance
here of I. J. Fisher, the fiesta is
occupying the attention of a
large number of the city's young
women who are in charge of the
program.
Proceeds from the annual
event, always one of the most
outstanding benefits of the year,
are used by the league chiefly
for the series of lectures which
the organization brings to Med
ford each winter. During the
past winter the group sponsored
the appearance here of Dr. Don
ald M. Erb of the University of
Oregon, Superintendent Wooley
of the Boys' Training school,
James R. Young, former news
paper correspondent in the
Orient and others speaking on
a variety of subjects.
Mrs. Leonard Carpenter, presi
dent of the group, pointed out
today that the league is redoub
ling its efforts during the war
period to keep the general pub
lic informed about governmen
tal problems and stated that it
is most imr rtant during war
times for some organizations to
be "wardens of thought". The
league maintains a staff of
trained workers in Washington,
V. C, at all times and the local
league contributes a substantial
sum yearly to this office and to
the state office.
SWEDE ANDERSON
IT
Suffering a fractured skull,
facial injuries and a broken
right leg in an accident while
working in a shipyard at Cor
dova, Alaska, almost six months
ago, Harold (Swede) Anderson,
former local fireman and Med
ford high football star, has been
confined to his hospital bed
since the mishap, his sister, Mrs.
Ethel Florey, 439 North Front
street, said today.
"Swede's" leg Is still in a
cast, which will be removed the
latter part of this month, his
sister said. She explained that
three months after the accident
the cast was removed, but that
in turning over in bed the leg
was broken again, necessitating
the cast being put back on.

Many Aid In Numbers.
With two stages alternating
in the spotlight, a simulated
radio hookup between Medford
and Moscow became the clever
device for transporting the audi

tions party staged by the U.S.O.
entertainment department into
the colorful atmosphere of Rus
sian music, dance and drama.
The party was held in K.P. hall.
More than 300 Camp White
soldiers and U.S.O. volunteer
workers enjoyed the party, one
third of whom appeared in cos
tumes, ranging from peasant far
mer garbs to those worn by
the nobility in the Czarist re
gime. Giant Rjssian figures, design
ed by Jack Moran for the occa
sion, formed a striking mural
for thi walls, whose alternat' -g
spaces were decorated with
American, Russian and other
allied nations flags.
