Muck 17, USt Civic Drama Guild Presents Comedy To-Close Series Although not . recommended for a Boy Scout conclave or a district meeting of women's dubs, "The Voice of the Turtle." the third Civic Drama guild play, presented at the high school audi torium, proved to be an enter taining, though slightly risque, voice. The play, while falling into the category of comedy, was not a "Deuy-iaugn piay out nts more readily into .the snicker classification and seemed to be particularly amusing to the ex servicemen in the audience. ' "Voice of the Turtle" starred Phyllis Manning as a lush blonde with whom nature has been ex ceedingly bountiful in every de partment except the "upper story. The success of the play hinged upon the effectiveness with which Miss Manning con vinced the audience of the au thenticity of her role as a struggling young actress recov ering from two love affairs but who still has dew in her eyes, roses in her cheeks and a vacuum still between the ears. In a pur ple sweater, Miss Manning out- Lana d Lana Turner. Helen McCall as Olive Lash- brooke gave an amusing and vig orous performance as the Broad way actress who had been around too long and too much on the merry-go-round known as life, but who still was willing and able to try once again for the brass ring. Wendell Mayes wa? sufficient ly sophisticated as Bill Page, the soldier with a cosmopolitan back ground who found himself cooped up for a week-end with the girl from Joplin, Mo. "Voice of the Turtle" was the third and last Civic Drama guild play which will be presented here this season. Tickets for next season's performances may be obtained from members of Ro tana or 20-30 club who jointly sponsor the plays in Medford. J.

By MRS. E. E. GORE Jackson' County Civic Music association brought the 1051-52 series of five concerts to a close Friday, March 14, with the pre sentation of the National Male Quartet: Attilio Baggiore, tenor; Gene Tobin, tenor; Vernon Sand ers, baritone, and.Bruce McKay, bass. The well-known pre-eminence of each member of the quartet as an artist in his own field gave promise of an outstanding eve ning of musical entertainment that was generously fulfilled. So limited and restricted is the available music originally com posed and written for male quar tet that these artists and their ac companist, Walter Hatchek, as sisted by - Leonard Marker, ar ranger, selected from the vast repertory of opera and song what seemed to be the universal favorite in its own class. Taking each number out of its own set ting, changing the original key, without aid of scenery, dramatic action or orchestra, they devised four-part harmony that was mu sically and technically interest ing.

The quality and timbre of the .dif ferent voice, the- sensitivity to change of mood, pleased the au dience very , much and stirred memories of both one's own sing ing days and of other concerts. The men seemed to have a limitless store of well-prepared numbers .and responded to the audience demand for more music by giving 10 or 12 encores. These were appreciated fully as much as the formally pro grammed list The ffrnun of niann solos played by Mr. Hatchek called for an encore In modernistic style. Coming to us from Corvallis where they sang for Oregon State colleee. the men took a 10:30 p. m. bus immediately fol lowing ine concert and were on their way to towns in Minnesota for a heavy booking of spring concerts. The present series, more or less confined to light musical en tertainment, had a definite ap peal and much regret was ex pressed that this delightful con cert should mark the close of the season.
