Winter Concert
Presented Friday
By Student Groups
Indicating loyalty to the
school as well as interest in the
programs which the instrumen
tal department produces, a fair
sized audience gathered at the
senior high school auditorium
Friday night for the annual
winter concert of the band and
orchestra, disregarding a stormy
night.
The orchestra, conducted by
Miss Melba Chehak, opened the
program with Mozart's "Lucio
S i 1 1 a Overture," and this
group's second number, Schu
bert's "Ave Maria" was one of
the best of the evening. The
first violin section was featured
as soloists. Although the play
ers made a shaky start on Wag
ner's "Lohengrin," (Introduc
tion to Act HI) they recovered
and marie a commendable show
ing of this colorful composition.
The audience responded the
least to "Some Day," a number
by Whistler-Hummel in the
popular classification, played by
the strings alone, applauding
more for Valensin's "Menuef
and ."Pizzicato Caprice." McKin
Icy's "A Fox Hunt" was an in
teresting descriptive piece of
music, but the closing number,
Morton Gould's "Hill Billy"
failed to bring much response
from the audience.
The band program had spe
cialty numbers by small groups
from the brass section inter
woven with the more conven
tional marches and overtures by
the entire section, and these
brought much applause from
the listeners. Keith Mirick, Wal
ter Kendall and Ned Landers
were featured in a cornet trio
playing "The Three Kings" by
Walter Smith and Raoul Mad
dox and Henry Padgham ap
peared in a trombone duet,
"Swiss Boy" arranged by Paul
DeVille.
The Russian Folk song "Dark
Eyes", was well done and well
received by the audience, but
Leroy Artderson's "Fiddle Fad
die," heard often on the radio
and usually played by string
groups, was one of the band's
weaker numbers. t
The band brought the pro
gram to a rousing close with a
composition entitled "Early
California" by Izaac which in
corporated many familiar songs
of gold rush days in the state
of California. As an encore, the
band played the beloved "Wild
Irish Rose."
I. A. Mirick. suDervisor of In.
strumcntal music, conducts the
bands and Keith Mirick was
student conductor for the band's
first number.
Members of the orchestra
hope that proceeds from the
concert will be largely used for
a uniform fund for that group.
Orchestra members, always en.
vious of the dashing band at
tire, have lone talked of uni
forms and remain unconvinced
when parents and teachers point
out that the evening gowns
worn by the girls for evening
concerts, with the dark trousers
and white coats of the boys,
make a pretty orchestra picture.
Miss Barbara Burns' narra
tion and comments added much
to the evening's enjoyment, and
her careful, clear enunciation
made it possible to hear and un
derstand all she said. O.S.

A I h I a n d Officers of the
Southern Oregon Art Teachers'

cently to formulate plans for ac
tivities for the winter and spring
months. The president, Robert
Banister, supervisor of art in
struction in the Klamath Falls
city schools and Klamath union
high school, led the discussion.
This group expressed the hope
that the association could be
actively helpful to its members
in their various fields of art en
deavor. To this end plans were
made to have the membership
notified of the traveling exhibit
of grade school work from the
Klamath Falls schools, grades 1
to 5. The exhibit may be kept
for a two week period, and
teachers interested are to con
tact Mr. Banister. The expense
of shipping will be arranged by
the association, it is stated.
Another exhibit open to teach
ers and pupils is that of Indian
students from the Pueblo Indian
school at Santa Fe, N.M., which
will be at the Art gallery, 1227
Main street, Klamatn Kalis,
from March 6 to March 31. If

visit, a guide will accompany
the group for informal discus
sions oi tne pictures, uauery
hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

series of workshOD meetings to
be held in various parts of this
region. The first workshop meet
ing will be held March 9. 10
and 11 at Altamont school,
Klamath Falls. Miss Heller, an
expert in her field and spon

shop the internationally-known
teacher of crafts, Professor Em
my Zweybruck of the American
Crayon company has been se
cured. Included in the plans for the
soring activities of the associa
tion is the distribution of a bul
letin entitled "Art Today in the
Elementary Grades." said to be
most helpful. It was prepared
by Robert Banister and con
tains information often request
ed by teachers of art.
A committee for writing a
constitution and by-laws for the

Deputy Chief Inspector of Po
lice Patrick McCarthy originated
this system in Duane Street,
New York City, in 1910. Inspec
tor Mccartny also introduced tne
"one way street" system to this
country. Q. Have you anything
in your Horses & Women files
regarding the character of wom
en whose mouths are somewhat
larger than the average? A.
Women with large mouths are
generally matrimonial prizes
They are usually genial, toler
ant, lovable, human, have a
great appeal to men and an ex
ceptionally good understanding
of the matter of keeping the
male of the species happy and
contented. Or so say our Horses

Helpful Hint.
Manufacture something peo
ple use only once, bometning
they consume or throw away aft
er using a single time. Gear your
product to the currency, that is.
have it sell for a nickel, a dime
or a quarter. That is the advice
given by a highly successful man
to those considering going into
the manufacturing Business.
Keep it in mind, young fellow.
There are many products in this
category. If you can figure out
a new kind of pill, soft drink or
candy bar your fortune is made.
I would do it myself, but I am
afraid if I became too rich I

Young Republican
Group Approves
Reapportionment
Portland, Ore., Jan. 30 (U.R)
The Oregon Young Republican
club's executive board today in
dorsed a "slide-rule" compromise
plan to re-apportion the Oregon
legislature.
Previously, the Oregon Farm
Federation bureau and seed
growers approved the same com
promise plan which would:
1. Enlarge the senate to 36
seats with the election of sen
ators from districts set up on a
basis of population;
2. Provide for the election of
representatives on the basis of
one from each county with 3o
others elected from the senato
rial districts.
Neubergir Has Plan
Other plans to reapportion the
legislature according to the state
constitution's requirements, in
clude State Sen. Richard -Neu-berger's
measure for a strict ap
portionment according to popu
lation, and a "little federal plan"
which would elect one house on
the basis of population and the
other on the basis of counties.
In another action, the Young
Republicans Instructed Steve An
derson, their delegate to the na
tional executive board, to urge
national Young Republican

By Heavy Snowfall
Salem, Ore.. Jan. 30 fU.R)
Salem public and - private

The weather bureau here re

The minimum temperature

Fraud Possible In
Ten Palr Letter
In Sunday's issue of The Mail
Tribune was printed a letter ad
dressed to the editor from one
signing his name as Issa A. Se
moh, of Lagos, Nigeria, West
Africa. In the letter he said he
sought "pals in foreign coun
try and added that he wished
to exchange African products
tor American.
It was pointed out today that
similar letters nave been report
ed to postal authorities in con
nection with frauds attempted
by residents of foreign coun
tries.
In a recent issue of Collier's
magazine, in an article entitled
"Sucker Traps: Plain and Fan
cy," one such attempt is de
scribed. A Nigerian calling him
self Prince Bil Morrison wrote
to American papers begging for
pen pals. "And he got them by
the dozen," the article says.
Makei 'Pitch'
"After the customary ex
change of pictures the prince
made his pitch," the Collier's
article continues. "He promised
his Stateside ticn pals Nigerian
ivory, diamonds and other pre
cious jewels in return for a pair
of old pants and $4, American.
The clothing and the money
flowed Nigeriaward, but nary a
tusk or Jewel returned, so the
post office issued a fraud order
in response to numerous com
plaints," the Collier's story said
Having printed the original
article in good faith. The Mall
Tribune feels that its readers
should be informed of the possi
bility of fraud in connection
with the letter from Africa.

Pork-On-The-Hoof Support Prices
Causing Concern To Agriculture Head
Washington, Jan. 30 (U.R)
Secretary of Agriculture Charles
Brannan is concerned today with
the increasingly ticklish problem
of deciding at what level to peg
prices for pork-on-the-hoof when
present supports expire March
31.
He apparently can get little
guidance from the three major
farm organizations. A poll
showed today that only one of
the groups is willing to give a
specific answer.
Return More Dollars
Brannan's decision, which
probably will be announced next
month, will affect consumers,
taxpayers and farmers. Hog sales
now return formers more dollars
than any other commodity ex
cept cattle and calves, and dairy
products.
A spokesman for the National
Farmers union said present hog
supports ahnuld be extended to
protect shrinking farm income,
even though It may earn "sub
stantial losses" to the govern
ment. The American Farm Bureau
federation is not prepared to rec
ommend any specific support
level, a spokesman said. Sources
close to the organization said,
however, that the record shows
the Farm Bureau apparently
would favor some reduction In
support levels to discourage ov
erproduction and insure against
possible heavy government
losses.
A spokesman for the Nntlonal
Grange said the Grange has no
official position on whether hog
supports should be continued
and, if so, at what level.
Supports Stripped
The question arises because
congress has stripped from hogs
mandatory supports first re
quired under wartime legisla
tion. The ltfH tarm act leaves ii
up to Brannan to say where, if
Shut out cold. Keep in heat.

at all, hog prices should be
pegged.
Hogs now are selling close to
support levels so close that the
government entered the market
last week to buy pork for price
support. But before the govern
ment could buy any, hog prices
bounced up, and the department
as yet has made no purchases.
Record-high peacetime spring
nnd summer marketings are in
prospect. If present supports arc
continued, some officials believe
the government may have to
take a lot of pork out of the mar
ket to prop hog prices.
On the other hand, If supports
are lowered drastically, farmers
would be exposed to the threat
of a further break in prices. Hog
firices already have skidded a
ong way from postwar record
highs.
Income Declines
Net farm income has dropped
20 per cent in the last two years
and, according to Brannan, this
Is a ban omen for the nation a
economy. The agriculture de
partment expects farm income to
drop another 15 per cent this
year.
Hogs are vitally important to
farm Income. For instance, in
Iowa, hog sales account for two
out of every five dollars farmers
