'The Desert Song" Here Sunday
MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday, June 21. 1944 THREE
OPEN PART TIME
STARTING JULY 1
Beginning July 1 the Mar
Kade, recreation center for ser
vicemen at St. Mark's Episcopal
church on North Oakdale ave
nue, will be operated on '. part
time basis by the church, it was
announced today by the Rev.
George R. Turney, rector. The
change '.n operation was decided
upon at a meeting of St. Mark's
vestrj held Sunday.
For the past year the Mar
Kade , has been operated ; with
funds derived partly from fed
eral sources through the Jack
son County Recreation commit
tee and partly with funds from
the national Episcopal church.
According to the Rev. Turney,
the decision to take over opera
tion of the center was brought
about by the reduced need for
recreation facilities for service
men. Mrs. Ruth Boyd, who replaced
Mrs. Harry Hinman as director
a short time ago, will continue
as director of the center, it was
stated. The Markade board will
not disband but will be inactive
for the time being, it was said.
Mrs. Boyd stated that after
July 1 it is planned to open the
MarKade Wednesdays, from 5
until H p. fn., Thursdays from
5 to 10:30 p. m., Saturdays from
1 to 11:30 p. m. and Sundays
from 12 noon until 10:30 p. m.
Wednesdays and Saturdays will
be dance nights, with general
"open house" activities planned
for Thursdays and Sundays.
However, the change in dance
nights will become effective
next week, she stated.
