Princesses Named
Selected this week to reign
with Queen Audrey at the
roundup are Princess Judy
Briggs, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
William M. Briggs, Ashland; and
Princess Glenda Martin, daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Mar
tin, Medford.
Sixteen-year-old Princess
Glenda is a sophomore at Med
ford senior high school, and is
planning a writing career. A
lover of music, she plays first
violin in the high school orches
tra. A member of the Medford
Trail Riders, Princess Glenda
participates in horseback rides
and games with that group. In
the roundup she will ride a
white Arabian gelding, '"Beans,"
a rodeo horse from New Mexico.
At the present she is training
"Dr. Pepper," her three-year-old
Tennessee walking horse. For a
hobby, Princess Glenda collects
photographs of horse shows and
rodeos in which she has partici
pated. She is a member of the
4-H club and has sheep, dairy
and sewing projects underway;
is club reporter for Howard
Stock club, and president of the
Howard sewing division. Prev
iously she has been a member
of the Longview Colt club and
Cowlitz Comity Saddle club of
Longview, Wash., and participat
ed in drill teams of both clubs.
Other Hobbies
Aside from these activities
she enjoys tennis, roller skating,
picniking. In the kitchen she is
not at a loss, according to Mrs.
Martin, who says her specialty
is roast chicken with dressing
and rich brown gravy.
Princess Judy Briggs won't
remember this for she was too
young at the time her mother
was overheard to say, "Judy
just isn't happy unless she smells
like a horse." That was the way
with Judy. Whenever she wasn't
to be seen, she was sure to be
found out in the corral fondly
caressing her mount or riding
briskly up a side road.
Now 16 years old, she is a
freshman at Ashland junior high
school, a member of the Ash
land Riding association and a
veteran in the show ring with
her trained Arabian gelding,
"Tezeyn." Judy has an array of
ribbons won at the annual Ore
g o n All-Arabian horseshows
held in Portland. She is making
plans now to enter the show
again this year.
In Article
Princess Judy and "Tezeyn"
were subjects of a two-page
article with photographs in the
Oregonian magazine section
last year. With patient tutelage,
she has trained "Tezeyn" 'In such
stunts as sitting up, kneeling,
counting his and Judy's ages by
pawing front foot, lying down,
picking up a whip, placing one
forefoot on a high pedestal; and
drawing all four feet onto a plat
form with Judy on his back.
In the summer. Judy makes
long trips into the mountains
with her parents, last year mak
ing the hazardous trip down
Rogue river from Galice to Gold
Beach.
Though they will preside
regally over the roundup June
10 and 11, this year's queen and
her princesses could no doubt
"show up" some of the best per
formers in the ring.

Crater Lions Club
Tells Plans for
'Clean-Up' Drive
Crater Lions club has started
planning for a city-wide clean
up campaign.
Preparations were launched
last week at a meeting in Mayor
Diamond Flynn's office.
The Lions committee, headed
by Lloyd Evans, reported that
this number of conventions sched
uled here and tourist travel al
ready started has made club
members conscious of unsightly
conditions at the city approaches.
Committeemen said that, with
the cooperation of residents,
many unsightly spots in town can
be cleaned up.
City to Help
Mayor Flynn has assured com
mitteemen of city assistance.
He informed them, nevertheless,
that there was no money in the
city budget for expenses in haul
ing away reiuse. it was said that
residents themselves should
make their own rubbish disposal
arrangements. The new disposal
ground at Camp White is avail
able. Other members of the Lions
committee are Cliff Horn and
Paul Bray. They will work with
newspapers and radio stations
and may call for the assistance
of other groups.
Proxy Marriage Of
Bergman 'Added Sin'
Rome, May 27 (U.R) A high
Roman Catholic church official
said today that the proxy mar
riage of Actress Ingrid Bergman
and Italian Director Roberto Ros-
sellini is an added sin" in the
eyes of the church.
"In view of the notoriety of
the case," the official said, '".Miss
Brrgman and Rossellini are not
only living in sinful adultery in
the eyes of the Catholic church,
but with the publicity attached
to them they set a most per
nicious example in civil society
itself . . .
"The possibility of a (Catholic)
church wedding for Miss Berg
man and Rossellini is well nigh
completely excluded. The church
does not recognize their respec
tive divorce and annulment."

Actor Henrv Wilcoxon, bored

ed today all
the big-n a m e

hung onto
their wives for
10 years ought
to get together

It's about

did something
about this sizzling wife-switching
reputation they've got, he says.
That belongs to the hot-blooded
boys on the fringe not the
solid citizens who only need one
woman to keep up their ego.
Anrl if vnu'ta Vtonn Hrnrtlin
over the recent amnrnus antics
from Rome and Paris and Spain,
Wilcoxon's list of "stay-married"
spouses will give you quite a
jolt.
They're not tired old has-beens
nobody hears about any more.
They can still generate enough
oomph to wow the ladies with a
passionate clinch. And plenty of
'em still have to fight their way
through squealing bobby-soxers
every time they stick their pro
files out in public.

Young and Walter Pidgeon all

department.
And if the 20-year-anniver-saries
don't convince you, Wil
coxon can go back even further.
"Cecil B. Demille will be cel
ebrating his 50th wedding anni
versary in 1952," he says. "There
may be an item in the papers
about it." But it'd be a much
bigger story if he divorced his
wife.
"That's why I think we need
this 'Same Old Girl' club. May
be if we got together once in a
while, we could convince the
public people do stay married in
Hollywood."
Plenty of Big Names
Look at Joe E. Brown, Jean
Hersholt, and Otto Kruger, he
says. They've had the same old
gals for going on 40 years now.
And how about to 20-to-20
I class?
Plenty of big names in
there, too: Fred Allen, Jack
Benny, James Cagney, Charles
Laughton, Frederic March,
George Murphy, Edward G. Rob

Stack this list of married
movie stars up against the play
boys who flit from bride to

playboys who get the short end
of the deal.

She's Expecting Baby
London, May 27 (U.R) The
best source today spiked a re
port that Rita Hayworth is ex
pecting another baby.
Miss Hayworth herself paused
in the lobby of the Ritz hotel,
glanced at her top-hatted hus
band on crutches and said:
"No, it's not true. I'm not ex
pecting." That was all she had to say
about a Los Angeles report quot
ing "sources close to the family"
that she was.
Bells with a delicate, musical

as "tinny" than as "silvery." Ap
proximately four parts of copper
