Benefit Tea I Wednesday Aids Annual Fund Drive One of the largest social events of the past week was the benefit tea given by the Jackson county committee of American Cancer society. The tea, held at Hillcrest orchard, attracted a large number of Medford and Jackson county women. So successful was the tea , first of this nature sponsored by the committee, that is was decided during the course of the after noon to make it an annual event. Displays of hobby and antique collections made the event highly Interesting to the visitors. Mrs. H. A. Davis' collection of hand made dolls excited much com ment. Mrs, Davis fashions the artistic little figures from pears, makes authentic clothing, com plete to eyeglasses and jewelry, and sometimes arranges them In family groups with small furni ture pieces and household arti- y MiteMea engrav- if I kif n heavyweight i sterling.

The restoration comprised 41 pages in Act III of the original score which are not included in standard editions. Boris Goldov sky, director of the opera, dug them up after extensive research in Europe. They were found in an old book on Bizet which had reprinted them. A study of Bi zet's original manuscript in the library of the Paris Conserva toire indicated the omissions. The manuscript also indicated that a section of 16 pages and another of nine pages had been dropped from the first act. Gol dovsky is still searching for those, having enlisted the co-operation of the Library of Con gress and the State Department in Washington in searching the music libraries and archives of Europe. 1 Boy Seoul News Plan Dinner Scouts, parents and leaders of Boy Scout Troop 8, Medford, will meet Tuesday, April 29, for the annual charter dinner at the Episcopal church parish hall.
