SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday, July 23. I9S2 Pickin' Pears News, Gossip, Comment From Camp White By SID; HOLLINGS WORTH It is good to be back in Ore gon after 10 days -weathering fog and cold in the San Fran cisco Bay region. The trip was made via the new bus service chartered by the SP to replace passenger train service between Grants Pass and Dunsmuir. All things considered, it is an enjoyable modern journey be tween here and San Francisco, with not too much train ride (six hours) and not too much bus travel (three hours). Careful driving of the big buses and air conditioning make for ease of mind and comfort. Not many passengers take ad vantage of the service as yet however. The scenic advantages are extraordinary. A 10 minute layover at the Yreka Coffee shop breaks the monotony. And something has perked up the service on the streamliners. The return trip was noticeable in this respect, especially in the diners. As a traveling companion into Medford from the Dunsmuir connection, Matt S. Thomas, a Navy veteran of World War II, WEEK-END ON GLAMOROUS MONTEREY PENINSULA FAST, FREQUENT FLIGHTS . . , . . From Medford Airport SmthivestAmyspa PHONE MEDFORD 2-5851 was aboard. He was driving up here to investigate some mag nesium deposits in which he is interested and ran into a culvert near Bakersfield, Calif. He was hauled out of the wreckage, dusted off and sent on his way by SP's friendly service. It is interesting to recall at this stage of matters political that Bill Hum is a personal ac quaintance of Dwight Eisenhow er, and George Tallmadge cor responds frequently with Jim Farley, who in the state of divi sion in the ranks, is almost the sole personification of the Dem ocratic party that was. Very few people who know George I. Tallmadge are aware of his special service to Uncle Sam in the Philippines after the (Spanish American war. Having i served there during the war he was familiar with the habits of the natives and was on such ;good terms with them that he became a civilian scout. Some of his exploits, both dangerous and full of adventure, in the tracking down of Aguin aldo, making exciting tales of a little known chapter of Amer ican frontier warfare across the Pacific. "In dealing with the natives, I always made them understand that I was their friend," he says in explanation of his ability to go into any camp unharmed. . "One night I went to a hut to sleep, knocked and received 'the reply of a man, 'Who is there?' I told him in his own Jartgu?" On The Side By E. V. Darling (Distributed by Kinfl Feature Syndicate, Inc.) The yean are coming and joint. Whole races are borne to their rest. Bat never ceases the passion That burns within my breast. Only once more I would see you And make yon a low salaam, And with my dying breath murmur: I love you still, Madame. Heine A New Yorker strongly re sents my statement that Geral dine Farrar's performance of the highly baffling role of Car men was only fair. That, of course, is a matter of opinion However, the gentleman refers to Miss Farrar as "the first Am erican singer to essay the role of Carmen." That will cost him one Pittsburgh stogie. The role of Carmen was created by an American. By a singer who was born in New York City, reared what I wanted. It was very dark inside and to show my friend ship, I took off my cartridge belt and gun and handed them to him. "He led me to the straw bunk I was to occupy and It was so dark I couldn't see who was sleeping beside me. In the morn ing I found it was his wife and daughter." Tallmadge has a tattoo mark on his leg symbolic of the blood brotherhood he shares with a Filipino, and it helped him in many of the tight situations he faced. Striking from ambush with the cruel bolo knife was the hazard of this campaign in ":'"se da vs. IXIw regoe. Milk retail prices Under the present Oregon Milk Control Law the mini mum retail price of the milk your child drinks is fixed by the Milk Administration. It is unlawful to sell milk below that fixed price. The Milk Administrator prohibits passing on to you any savings from efficiency in wholesale distribution. Lower cash-and-carry store prices are also forbidden. Thus many parents cannot afford all the milk their growing children need. What Safeway Stands hi Safeway believes that the producer and con sumer are harmed by milk regulations which fix prices of milk beyond the producer level. For example, price fixing at the retail, level tends to reduce competition, create monopolies, and discourage modern economies in process ing, packaging, and retailing milk. As a result the price to the consumer is often higher than necessary resulting in reduced purchases, smaller consumption and disastrous milk surpluses. When consumers pay cash for milk and carry it home from the store, they save the cost of home delivery and credit. Safeway believes the consumer is entitled to that saving. It is Safeway policy neither to use milk as a "loss leader" nor to attempt to make an unwarranted profit on its sale. SHOP SAFEWAY ...

I am referring, of course, to the great Minnie Hauk, to whom Bizet, the composer referred as "the ideal Carmen." Horses and Women Many young women are now helping their escorts pay the restaurant and night club checks. This situation prevails when a career girl is taken out by a young fellow whose salary is not unusually large. In help ing pay the check the girl does not feel she is being imposed upon, nor is the young man em barrassed. So I note it reported. Very interesting, if true. I am having our Horses & Women ex perts check on it. I do not ap prove of the situation. The man should always have the pfivilege of paying the check. If the girl wants to help him she can take care she doesn't build up the tab by ordering extravagantly. That Club A group of Californians is re portedly grooming Harry Cole man of San Francisco to run for president of the "I Was There Club." Mr. Coleman is truly a formidable candidate. He was present at the SS General Slo cum disaster in New York in which over a thousand lives were lost, the San Francisco fire and earthquake, the Young Cor-bett-Terry McGovern fight and the Gans-Nelson fight at Gold field. He was also there on the spot when the notorious hood lum, John Dillinger, was shot and killed in Chicago. Asking: Queries From Clients: Q. My husband, a traveling salesman, has been raving about Constance Bennett, whom he saw recently in a stage play in Chicago. Not only about her action but her marvelous figure. Is Constance older than her sister Joan? What are her. measurements? A. Your husband's enthusiasm as to Miss Bennett seems to have Gotten under your skin. Better start raving about some hand some actor and get even with him. Constance is two years old er than Joan. Regret we naven t her complete measurements in our files. She is about five feet four, and weighs around 120 pounds. Has a nice figure but is no sweater girl. Mules and Men Most of the lingerie bought for Christmas gifts is purchased bv men. Most of the men Duy black lacy lingerie. The reason the men buy this type of lingerie is because it makes them feel wicked." Such is the statement made bv a member of the lin gerie manufacturing industry. I doubt that claim. Sounds HKe propaganda to me. Is there more money in black lingerie than that of other colors? The infor mation in the hands of our Horses & Women Department, based on careful questioning, is that the majority of women pre fer white lingerie to black. Naming Baby Queen Mary of England was christened Victoria Mary Au gusta Louise Olga Pauline Claudine Agnes. If your next offspring is a girl, might be a good idea to give her nine or ten names. Then when she grows older she can use the name she likes best. Best Performance Merle Oberon's best perform ance was as George Sand In "A Song to Remember." I saw that film again last night It is one of my , favorites. Of course, it doesn't tell the whole story of the affair between George Sand and Chopin. After George broke with the composer, she de scribed him as "a high flown consumptive and an exasperat ing nuisance." India Edwards Sees War 'Least Useless' Chicago (U.R) Mrs. India Edwards, who lost her husband in the first World War and a son in the second, says Gold Star mothers of the Korean war should ignore those "who would make you feel that your sons have been killed in a useless war. She told the Democratic Na tional Convention Tuesday night the Korean war has been the "least useless" in our history. Mrs. Edwards, vice chairman of the Democratic National Com mittee, said neither Democrats nor Republicans can guarantee peace but that the Democrats can do more to attain this goal than the Republicans.
