Charlotte Roffers. field direct or of the American Red Cross at Camp White, has the following to say about Mrs. Rease Braley, Medford. Mrs. Braley can guide her mount successfully through any parade, as horses are one of the hobbies of this Red Cross lady. The Ladies Mounted troop of Medford finds her there for prac tice days and drill periods. She has been a member of the troop for 10 years and owns her own horse. This is only one of the many hobbies of this active lady. She came to Medford 33 years ago, from Brooklyn, N. Y. She is a real Medfordite now. Her Red Cross service has been long and faithful. Miss Rogers says. She first became a Gray Lady in 1942 during the old Camp White days of the army and the navy. Also, she was chairman of the motor ser vice of the Red Cross from 1944 to 1949, and came back into the active Gray Lady group when the domiciliary was opened. Now, she also serves as volun teer chairman of the Junior Red Cross and gives her guiding hand and support to Miss Vera Humphrey, director of Junior Red Cross. Mrs. Braley"s days are busy ones, for her greatest hobby is five grandchildren, one in Buen os Aires. Also, she classes poli tics as a hobby and is active in civic affairs, and is a member of the Jackson county chapter board of the Red Cross and the League of Women Voters. She is a republican committeeworhan and is active in the Presbyterian church, as well as keeping house for her husband, who is in the lumber business. But with all of these activities Miss Rogers concluded she finds time to come to the domiciliary each month with the Gray lad ies. For relaxation she plays bridge and square dances.
