Junior Dairy Show
Plans Completed
By Cattle Club
Hold Hill Plans for the an
nual .Tnnior Dairy show to be
held in Gold Hill Saturday, May
21, were completed at a business
cession of the Rogue River Jer
sey Cattle club at the home of
Mr and Mrs. Cliff Moore near
Eaele Point last week.
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.

Coast Guard Study
Of Ship Collision .

freighter and the yacht Suomi
off Point Arguello in which five

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.

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.
