Christmas Opening
Slated Oeeember 1
By Merchants Here
Wednesday, Dec. 1, has been
set as the official opening of the
Christmas season by downtown
Medford merchants, according to
Don McNeil, manager of the
Jackson County Chamber of
Commerce. ...
This season's celebration is ex
pected to be one of the most col

Income Expenses
Of Shakespearean -Festival
Both Up
Ashland Oregon Shakespear
ean Festival income in 1954 was
above previous years, according
to William Patton, general man
ager, but the largest expenditure
for capital improvements in his
tory led to a deficit.
Total income was $37,178.60.
Total operating expenditures
were $30,445.08. Expenditures
for capital items anfl improve
ments, however, totaled $7,
704.63, bringing total expendi
tures for the year to $38,149.71.
The deficit of $971.11 came
out of the festival's limited re
i serve fund.
Sealing Biggest
The largest single expenditure
of the season went toward pay
ing for the new seats, Patton
pointed out. One-third of the
600 purchased' have been paid
for, with the balance due over
the next two seasons. Without
donations from patrons, the gen
eral manager said, this initial
installation of seats . could not
have been made. He added that
donations were still being re
ceived and gratefully accepted.
When the 600 now installed
are paid for, the association plans
to purchase over 400 more, so
that comfortable seats will be
available throughout the theater.
Patton stated that any associa
tion member wishing a complete
break-down of festival finances
might have a 1954 report upon
request. '
to revive the parade, lighted
street decorations and novel win

feature floats portraying Biblical
and fairyland themes. Numer
ous cash prizes will be offered
for' the winners of each partici

to Medford proper, and the Jay
cees are inviting any . entries
from surrounding communities.
In 1952, a total of 57 floats were
entered. j .'
-;. It was pointed. out that the
parade is not a commercial event,

meaning of Christmas and usher
in the holiday season. ,
Any group or individual wish
ing to enter a float should tele

Merchants Pay Costs '
The Retail Merchants associa
tion will finance the parade and
street lighting through payment
of 50 cents a front foot by each

that the association bought the
new decorations last year, but
was unable to light most of them
at the' time.
