Fishing Lures Used
As Costume Jewelry
Cleveland, O. U.R) When
can allure do more for women
than men? ,
Why, when a lure is allure.
That double talk, happily, has
started a new business for the
manufacturers of fishing tackle.
Many women now sport fishing
lures as costume jewelry.
The gay lures, stripped of
barbed hooks or no, might catch
more men than fish, especially
in this leap year of 1952.

Festival Music Program
Explained by Director
Audiences who have attended the first half of the 1952 Oregon
Shakespearean festival plays in Ashland for the most part are
pleased with the entertainment provided this year under the aug
mented music program. While some have expressed disagreement
with parts or phases of the program, both the music director, Hans
Lampl, and festival fans and officials agree that generally the
music seems to be successful.
The new director faced a stu
pendous task when he arrived in
Ashland from southern Californ
ia in June. He has worked long
hours directing singers and in
strumentalists, and in addition
has arranged or written much
music for the four plays.
In an interview Thursday
night Director Lampl explained
some of his problems and gave
additional details of the work
being carried on in an effort to
provide the four .plays with
suitable music. One of the main
difficulties lies in the fact that
much of the true Elizabethan
music is of a type to make it
unsuitable to augment or height
en dramatic scenes, he said.

"Just as overly elaborate stage
settings would seem wrong on
an Elizabethan stage, an exces
sive amount of music would
undoubtedly impair the effec
tiveness of the Ashland produc
tions," the director declared. "As
it is, every one of the directors
of this season's plays took great
pains to keep the use of music
apart from .Shakespeare's own
original indications restricted
to such instances only where it
would help define the dramatic
situation, as the dinner music
at the beginning of the second
act, or the wedding-music at
the beginning of the fourth act
in "Much Ado," or the ghost
music in "Caesar."
"I believe that generally music
of the Elizabethan-Jacobean
period is best suited for the Ash
land productions. Thus a unique
unity of style as well as atmo
sphere is achieved. Unfortunate
ly this ideal unity can only be
realized with certain types of
plays. The reason for this lies in
the limitations " of Elizabethan
music itself. As far as the greater
part of all available material
shows, it does not contain any
thing suitable for a highly
dramatic scene, nor such music,
for instance, as could be called
eerie or truly martial.
"Unless the use of music is to
be restricted to songs actually
sung on stage, or dances and
simple fanfares, one has to go
beyond the Elizabethan ,' era.
While it is possible to write
music in a 16tly or 17th' century
style, it is futile to aim at any
dramatic effect. The vocabulary
of Elizabethan 4!music simply
does not supply it. - '
"Once a unity of styles has to
be abandoned, however, the best
results, to my mind, can be
achieved if a gifted composer is
free to write original music, pro
vided he takes pains to faith
fully mirror the ; atmosphere
aimed at in the particular pro
duction. ' i
For the incidental music- to
"Tempest" and "Much Ado,"
much authentic 16th and early
17th century music . was used,
spme of it from two of the main
sources of Elizabethan keyboard
music (the "Mulliner Book" and
the "Fitzwilliam Virginal Book")
some of it from a French source
of 16th century court dances, and
some of the song settings the
versions actually used in the
earlier Shakespeare productions.
Almost all the music was tran
scribed and adjusted to the par
ticular groups available, a small
number of strings and wood'
winds, some brass, and a harp to
simulate the sounds of the lute
"Much of the music had to be
especially composed in an "Eliz
abethan idiom," such as the set
tings of the goddesses' song in
the "Tempest," Ariel's "While
you here do snoring lie," and
the hymn "Pardon, . Goddess of
the Night" in "Much Ado." The
songs "Toss the Pot" and the
Agincourt Song in "Henry V are
authentic, the first a 16th cen
tury popular song, the other dat
ing back to the 15th century
All the fanfares in "Henry V"
had to be written especially,
since none of the 16tb and 17th
century trumpet signals found
in source books would have been
quite suitable. It was generally
attempted to give the fanfares
a flavor not strictly Elizabethan,
but more archaic to suggest the
style of the earlier period."
In "The Tempest" Director
Lampl also used '.'Come . Unto.
These Yellow Sands written by
Bannister in- the middle' " 17th
century and two songs of Robert
Johnson, "Full Fathoms Five"
and where the Bee Sucks.
These are dated about 1612.
"Sigh No More Ladies" in
"Much Ado" is an early 17th
century composition of Thomas
Ford, and all dances in both
plays are performed to 16th and
17th century music. The "French
source" alluded to earlier by
Mr. Lampl is. Gervaise whose
music was among the earliest
ever printed in Paris.-the printer
being Attaignant.
The music for "Julius Caesar"
was written by Ellis B. Kohs at
the request of Director Lampl.
This frankly modern-style music,
particularly that written as the
overture, has caused some ad
verse comment. Mr. . Kohs, a
graduate of the University of
Chicago who did advanced work
at Princeton university, has
taught at both College of the
Pacific and the University, of
Southern California and is high
ly regarded as a composer by
Mr. Lampl.
Audiences have been partic
ularly pleased with the offerings
of the Madrigal singers. This
group sang for the Bard's Hey
day, for opening night and also
appear each night for "Much
Ado."

Festival Footnotes
Dr. Margery Bailey, Shakes
pearean authority on the faculty
of Stanford university and aca
demic advisor to the festival, is
truly acting in that capacity, for
after every performance she at
tends, she settles herself at a
table at the Tudor Fair, which
serves free coffee to the actors
after each performance, or
walks down to the B and G.
There the actors gather round,
to satisfy their appetites, always
sharpened by the strain of a per
formance, and to hear her com
ments on the play. Such a gath
ering took place at the B and G
Thursday. Bill Ball, actor from
New Rochelle, N.Y., ran a close
second to Dr. Bailey in drawing
attention, for he rapidly con
sumed three hamburgers and a
double-decker ice cream cone
before leaving for the men's
dormitory at Southern Oregon
college where he is staying.
Talking about "Henry V"
Thursday night, Dr. Bailey com
mented on the sharp contrasts
which that play affords. A battle
scene is followed by a hilarious
comedy scene or one with a
deeply religious note; long
speeches are contrasted with the
gay and tender scene in which
the king tells the French prin
cess of his love.
-The group agreed that the
quickness with which these
scenes are staged adds to the
dramatic effect, but it was also
said by some who had been in
Thursday night's audience that
the rapidity with which the next
scene's actors began their lines
cut off the applause which ac
tors who had just finished
speaking otherwise would have
received.
Few directors can boast of
having produced a show that
ran without any accidents back
stage during the performance,
and this year's festival directors
are no exception.

Glimpses of Oregon's
Shakespearean Festival
Someone always trips over
some furniture backstage in the
dark, knocks over a halberd, at
tempts to get a drink from the
fountain which always protests
loudly, or accidentally shakes
the thundersheet which is hung
off stage right, during a most
dramatic scene. If all is quiet
backstage there is sure to be a
plane roaring overhead, a train
going by or a truck ' shifting
gears as it climbs the hill below
the theater.
Phil Hanson, who is directing
"Henry V" this year, has re
peatedly, warned his cast about
noise during scene shifts which
can be heaTd out front. Finally,
he told the cast after the last
run-through of "Henry," "If
you're going to throw the throne
chair during the French soldier
scene, please throw it farther so
it will make more noise. And if
you're going to drop that quarter-round,
- please raise it at
least two feet higher and drop it
a few lines earlier. You're not
coming in on cue." The cast,
which at first had listened seri
ously, realized that Phil was
joking, and the rehearsal ended
in a burst of laughter.
Accidents will happen on
stage, too, as Isaac McCarley,
who plays the French herald
Montjoy in "Henry" andPhil
Fulton, Duke of Gloucester, can
testify. In the last performance
of "Henry," Phil dropped a
purse which he was supposed to
toss to Rick Risso, King Henry,
who in tur-n tossed it to Isaac.
He also dropped it, and several
people in the audience remarked
afterwards that the purse sound
ed as if it contained beans rather
than money.

Salad Ingredients
Available on Lawns x
Chicago ftJ.R) A naturalist
says you can pick yourself a
salad in the woods, or even on
your lawn.
Roland E. Eisenbeis, senior
naturalist of the forest preserve
here, suggested the following
tasty ingredients: plantain,
lamb's quarter, sheep sorrel,
leek, wild onion, sourdock and
linden leaves, wild ginger, and
the usual dandelion leaves.
Plaintain, like the dandelion,
is a common lawn and roadside
weed. Eisenbeis said, and has a
broad-ribbed leaf. Lamb's Quar
ter has a small, silver-gray-green
leaf, shield-shaped; sheep sorrel
is similar to clover but has a
yellow flower shaped like a vio
let; sourdock is a long, curly
leaf which tastes like a lemon.
Change the popular tossed
green salad with tart fresh
grapefruit sections and slices of
mellow rich avocado. Use any
proportions you like and toss the
salad just before serving. A
wine vinegar, oil, salt and fresh
ly ground pepper dressing is just
right with this.
