    SIXTEEN MEDFORD (ORECON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Sunday. April 9. 1950
Bedlam Reigns at
Field as Children
Seek Easier Eggs
Medford high school's baseball
field was the scene of confusion
and bedlam for an hour yester
day morning as more than l.uuu
youngsters of Medford and vi
cinity waited impatiently and
then surged over the area in the
annual Easter egg hunt of the
Medford Klwanis cwrj.
Club pfficials said the throng
of youngsters was the largest in
the post-war history of the event.
Several hundred parents and
nlrlo hrnlhAPG llH HlStPrS fllSO
were on hand to chaperone and
watch the fun.
Manv Prlzal
Kiwanians gave away literally
hundreds of prizes. Karen Bal-
lance, 32 Eastwood anve, was
the luckiest youngster at the
hunt. She found the grand prize
egg and was presented a huge
stuffed Easter bunny. There
were 12 other major awards for
finders of lucky eggs.
Kiwanians experienced diffi
culty in restraining the eager
youngsters before starting time,
and when the signal was given
they swept over the field in
mammoth waves. Then they
crowded around the prize truck
for their awards. When they
trekked homeward after the af
fair they left the Dig amieiic
area strewn with boxes, sacks,
prize wrappers, crushed eggs
and egg shells.
Rice Emcee
E. Ron Rice, Kiwanis secretary-treasurer,
was master of
ceremonies, utilizing the facili
ties of the Fluhrer bakery sound
truck. At the end of the hunt he
operated the usual lost and
found children's service.
Providing entertainment for
the occasion were the Sloppy
Six novelty band. Its members
were Ned and Ted Landers,
Pomeroy Sorum, Jerry Lambo,
Jerry Adamson and Ken Piland.
Boy scouts patrolled the area
before the hunt.
