BPW Carnival To Raise Scholarship Funds Tomorrow The size of the girl's scholar ship which will be donated next year by the Medford Business and Professional Women's club will depend upon the results of the "circus-carnival" being held at the Medford armory at 7:30 n.m. tomorrow, club members said today. The first in what it Is hoped will be an annual event, the car nival will raise money to send some Medford high school girl to an Oregon college of her choice. Whether it will be a tuition or full scholarship de pends upon the outcome tomor row night. All 90 members of the BPW are cooperating in making the event a success, according to Miss Dana Plntz, general chair man. The armory will be com pletely decorated, she said, with signs, paper streamers, gay booths and balloons and features of the carnival will be a fortune telling booth, unusual dancing dolls, refreshments, and a num ber of games. In explaining the scholarship plan, BPW members said that good average grades, a career already chosen, and a need for financial assistance, will govern the selection of the girl to be given the college help. If the funds raised tomorrow night are more than adequate for the scholarship, any excess will be devoted to other philanthropic activities, and to building up a fund for next year.
