Pulitizer Drama
To Be Presented .
By Vining Company
The fourth play to be present
ed by the Vining Repertory com
pany at Ashland Li una Theatre
during their April 14-May 10
season is the Pulitzer prize
drama, "Death of a Salesman,"
by Arthur Miller. This also won
the New York drama critics'
award as the best play to be
presented on Broadway in 1949.
Called by Brooks Atkinson of
the New York Times, one of
the finest dramas in the whole
range of the American theatre,"
this play has been a bigger suc
cess, not only in every major
American city but also in most
foreign capitals, than any other
serious stage presentation of this
century, with the possible ex
ception of "A Streetcar Named
Desire." . , ,
Setting of "Death of a Sales
man" is Willy Loman's home in
Brooklyn a home that he has
painfully paid for over 35 years
of hard work, calling on cus
tomers in "the New England
territory." But, like everything
in Willy's life, his home u shab
by. As he ruefully remarks at
one point, his refrigerator has
worn out before it has been fully
paid for.
Through a series of flashbacks,
it is revealed that Willy once
was a successful salesman or,
at least, he thought he - was. A
glad-hander, his ideal wag to be
"not only liked, but well-liked."
And, to their ruin, he had tried
to impress this ideal on his sons.
One o them he grooms for a
heroic football career. "Person
ality always wins the day," he
says.' . , .
But this illusion, shared by
many Americans, proves false as
old age encroaches upon the
once-optimistic drummer. At the
beginning of the play, Willy Lo
raan is shown returning from
one of his selling-trips, defeated
ly carrying his heavy sample
cases back to his home, and with
out a single order. He is finished,
but he tries not to face this
grim fact, nor the truth that he
has made both his sons into ne'er-
do-wells, by trying to force them
into ways not suited to their
temperaments. .
Richard Graham plays the
role of the pitiful, beaten and
confused traveling salesman
who sees in his sons' failures
his own futilities, mistakes and
misdeeds. Elmarie Wendel will
be seen as his . faithful wife.
Eddy Barron and Brad Curtis
as the sons and Angus Bowmer
as his friendly next-door neigh
bor. Block bookings for theater
parties and season tickets will
be available until April 12 only.

Speaker Explains
School Tax Bills
For Mothers' Club
A special meeting of Griffin
Creek Mothers' club was held
last Friday evening. Dad's night
was observed, and a large per
centage of the parents of the
school attended. '
Dr. Bill Sampson, assistant
professor of education at South
ern Oregon college, was speaker
and explained the school reor
ganization and six mill tax lim
itation bills. Entertainment for
the meeting was furnished by
the barbershop quartet, "Three
Notes and Dad."
During the. business meeting,
new Boy Scout troop committee
men were introduced. They in
cluded Floyd Robinson, scout
master; Walter C. Miller, as
sistant; Dr. George Goodrich,
community- representative; Har
old O'Connors, chairman of the
committee, Ed Goehring, Ben
Wells, Ray Guches, and Chet
Sessler. .
Report of the recent Smorgas
bord dinner dance showed a good
profit. Purchase of a sewing ma
chine for the 4-H sewing club,
new scales and visual aid equip
ment were announced as recent
purchases. It was also announced
a party for teen-age pr seventh
and eighth grade students would
be held Friday evening, April 4,
and a county teachers' luncheon
would be served by Boy Scout
mothers, headed by Mrs. Ray
Guches, on April 5th. Plans were
also made for the annual public
ham dinner April 20.
A nominating committee elect
ed included Mrs. George Good
rich, Mrs. Robert Minear and
Mrs. R. C. Warnock. Room prize
was won by pupils of Mrs.
Frinks's fifth grade room.
In explaining the proposed
bill for reorganization of schools;
Dr., Sampson stated the bill is
designed for two reasons to
help equalize educational oppor
tunities for all children and to
enable schools to have more ef
ficient administrative districts,
each district capable of main
taining schools for grades from
one to twelve.
He stated reorganization
means reorganization of adminis
tration rather than attendance
centers. He pointed out that the
bill is drawn to give everyone in
each community an opportunity
to express approval or disap
proval through public meetings
and through vote for board rep
resentatives. If passed, he stated
a state board will set up stand
ards, then a county , committee
will be appointed with repre
sentatives from each district to
study best possible methods for
setting up school districts in that
county. . ;.-
Financially, taxpayers would
be getting much more for their
money if the districts are reor
ganized, he pointed out, since
consolidation of purchase power
would mean quantity purchase
savings. In Jackson . County
alone, he added, a sum of $30,000
could have been saved last year
if all paper towels and other
paper products used in schools
in the county could have been
purchased on one order through
a central office. Also, 'under the
new plan, a surplus on one school
such as textbooks may be trans
ferred to another school having
a shortage. He also pointed out
the many advantages gained by
districts which are now non-
high school and which may be
forced at a future date to se
cure other arrangements for
high school facilities.
Speaking on the bill covering
the six mill property tax limita
tion, Dr. Sampson said that in
the opinion of the stale attorney
general it would nullify the basic
school support act. He added that
most groups believe .this is a
bill being promoted by pro
ponents of a sales tax as a means
of forcing . support of the sales
tax by school people and parents;
