This event, sponsored by the club each spring, is designed to afford exDerience in showman- thin to 4-H and FFA members in Jackson and Josephine coun- tips who have dairy projects. All whose projects are of this type are eligible to enter their ani mals reeardless of breed, and may make arrangements to do so through their club or group leaders, it was stated. Warned About Quality Jersey club members were ad monished at the meeting not to relax their vigilance in offering a quality product to consumers, It was pointed out that recent information released through Oregon state department of ag riculture channels indicates a tendency on the part of dairy men to permit bacteria counts to swing upward as prices for milk decline. A no-host luncheon followed the club meeting and at its con clusion, Glen Klein, Jackson county agent for 4-H activities, discussed dairying as it is car ried on in New Zealand, where grass forms the basis for the in dustry, with english rye grass and white clover constituting the usual combination, grown for both permanent pasture and ensilage. t . , No Supports Functioning wholly, without benefit of government supports or subsidies, and handicapped by the vast distances which sep arate them from major centers of population. New Zealand dairymen have been able to com pete successfully in a world market by converting their fluid milk into such staple products as cheese, butter, and dried milk, The speaker, who spent a year in New Zealand working and studying under the Inter national Farm Youth Exchange program, illustrated his talk with a series of kodachrome slides taken there. Mrs. W. D. Mongold was program chairman. Eighteen members and guests of the club- attended. May 15 was chosen as the date for the next meeting. It will be held in Josephine county with the place to be announced later. EATON'S DINNER HOUSE 112 Crater Lakt At.

(U.R) The Coast Guard resumed its in vestigation Saturday into a col lision between a Swedish freighter and the yacht Suomi off Point Arguello in which five men aboard the yacht lost their lives. Point Arguello in fhich five men aboard the yacht lost their lives. Officers and crewmen of the Swedish ship Paramatta refused to testify Friday at a Coast Guard hearing. The Parramatta struck the Suomi early Thurs day in squally weather and the $25,000 yawl sank quickly. Outside Limits William Roethke, attorney for the freighter's Swedish owners, challenged the Coast Guard's authority to conduct an inquirv and advised the personnel of the freighter not to answer any questions. Roethke contended the acci dent occurred three and two tenths miles offshore, outside the territorial waters of the United States. The hearing's chairman, Coast Guard Capt. J. A. Brdsnan countered Roethke' tactics by ordering an immediate applica tion for a hearing in the U. S. District Court. maw I with Morioria M1IH ?

Around Hollywood Hollywood (U.R) Betsy Blair, an actress noted chiefly as Gene Kelly's wife, finally has reached "TCgrcn her own star- uum Decause of her admit tedly "plain, o r d i n a r y" face. The red haired actress and Ernest Borgnine, the sadistic s e r Aline Mosby geant in "From Here to Eternity," have emerged as the hottest screen romancers of the year. They portrayed two lonely, non-beautiful souls who find love in "Marty". The film, produced by Harold Hecht and actor Burt Lancaster, had no big-name stars nor stag gering budget but won enthus iastic, cheers from critics and New Business Opened For Canvas, Shades The Valley Shade Co., a new business, has been opened in the former Selby Terrace shop loca tion, 307 North Bartlett st., by Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Munden. The Mundens have operated the canvas department at Selby's for the past four years, and have been in the canvas business for the past 10 years. They have also purchased the shade business of Barnard's. Both commercial and home canvas awnings and all kinds of canvas work, roller shades, roller shade service and Venetian blinds will be featured by the new firm.

Miss Blair sat down to her first interview a a new star to honestly say, "I'm a plain, ordinary-looking human being." "I never would have been con sidered for the role it I were a Marilyn Monroe type," she said. . "I've never tried being that way because I don't feel like that. I don't feel that's what womanhood is. Besides, I don't think the movies should be some fairyland." In most films the . heroine is beautiful, perfectly groomed and poised, and the hero is a walk ing toothpaste ad. But in "Marty" the characters are "homely," as the critics called them, or "real" as Miss Blair prefers. "It's flattering to have a role that's a human being," she said, "and not just a flat picture. "Nobody looks like those beau tiful people in the movies. Even those people in the movies aren't like that off the screen! Except perhaps Elizabeth Taylor. She always looks beautiful, but she's rare." Broadway Beginning It took Betsy 15 years of act ing to reach acclaim. She began as a Broadway dancer and grad uated to starring stage roles. But in Hollywood, after becoming Mrs. Gene Kelly, she won only supporting character parts. "Most people here think I really don't care about working, but I do," she said. "I suppose being Gene's wife, is somewhat of a handicap, but I don't care." Betsy has long hair, worn in a school-girl style. She wore a simple jumper and blouse to day, and no makeup. She looked like Julie Harris in "East of Eden," and "Everybody Tells Me That." . "Marty" has brought her a new career. As we spoke she packed to join Kelly in France for the Cannes Film Festival where her film will be shown. Then she'll star in a French film. "And I had to turn down of fers here to go," she beamed. "I suppose for a while the of fers will be to play 29-year-dld spinsters but I don't care. ooooooooooooooooo STARTS SANTA LIKE SIX-GUHS NEVER DID!
