High School News Notes
By NELLIE RAWLINGS
The spotlight was on Girls'
League last week, during a ser
ies of events that made up Girls'
League Week.
A general
meeting was
held in the
auditorium
Monday morn
ing and the
girls were giv
en a preview
of the coming
week.
Nellie Rawiings luesaay was
"picnic day" and sack lunches
were sold in the cafeteria in-
stead of the hot lunches, for
students to eat on the grass. Bob
Ayre's band played music and
some students bopped and jitter
bugged, after their meal.
Wednesday was "Slack Day"
and the girls wore pedal pushers
to school. Some even wore Ber
muda shorts, and really enjoyed
the change.
The Mother-Daughter Tea was
held in the auditorium Thurs
day afternoon. The Homemaking
classes put on a style show and
girls from the sewing classes
modeled clothes that they had
made. The cooking classes made
the cakes for the tea. The theme
of the whole week as "City
Slickers' Holiday," and the style
show depicted a scene in the
Ozarks.
The week ended with a con
test, which included both boys
and girls. The girls 'cooked up'
all sorts of crazy hats. Each hat
had to be original. There were
many categories; the highest,
widest, most gadgets, etc.
Boys wore unusual shirts
which were judged on the basis
of beauty, most colorful stripes,
the loudest, etc.
Elections for next year's Fu
ture Homemakers of America of
ficers were held last week. Tak
ing office next year will be pres
ident, Sue Johansen; vice-president,
Sue Knight; secretary, Lois
Elkins; treasurer, Kathy Richey;
reporter, Winnie Gott; parlia
mentarian, Sue Hubbard; histor
ian, Marion Elkins; song leader,
Nancy Adams.
Registrations for next year
are being taken. The ninth grad
ers at McLoughlin Junior High
were registered this week. Hed
rick Junior High will be regis
tered next week. Girls from the
stenography class helped the
counselors register the students.
Sophomores and Juniors are
making out their schedules for
next year.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRiBTJNE ELEVEN
Around Hollywood
By ALINE M0SBY
Unitad Press Correspondent
Hollywood (U.R) Director
Alfred Hitchcock's latest star
discovery, blonde Vera Miles, is
sizzling upset at the thought she
is anything
like his last
years star
the Princess of
Monaco.
Hitch cock
made Grace
Kelley a top
actress in
"Dial M For
Murder" and
Aline Mosby "Rear Win
dow." But she was under con
tract to MGM, which reaped the
glory and the money while
Prince Rainier got the girl.
So when Hitch spotted another
potential screen sensation, 26-year-old
Miss Miles, he firmly
tied her to a three-picture-a-year
contract, the first time the direct
or ever signed up a player him
self. Hitchcock figures Miss Miles,
a former beauty contest winner
from Wichita, Kans., will be the
Kelly of 1956. But the budding
star served notice today she shies
away from any comparison.
'Earthy Grace Kelley
"Somebody once called me an
'earthy Grace Kelley',' Vera
sighed. "Really! What is Grace
Kelly without that wonderful so
phistication? That's like saying
somebody is a sophisticated An
na Magnani. I don't think I look
anything like Grace." '
There are a few similarities,
however. Like Grace, Vera is a
willowy blonde with a lady-like
air. Vera, too, wears her hair
straight and pulled back. She
The Southern Oregon Music
contest was held at Southern
Oregon college Friday. Students
from band, orchestra and vocal
music attended.
The Future Business Leaders
of America have been busy send
ing out invitations to attend their
"Business Day," to be held in
the early part of May at our
school. Business students from
different schools in southern Ore
gon have been invited.
The day will consist of two
mass meetings, one in the morn
ing and one in the afternoon,
with speakers from the First Na
tional bank and the Bell Tele
phone company. There will be a
luncheon served at noon. A dime
onstration of the various office
machines will be given to ac
quaint the students with various
types of machines.
goes in for tailored, simple
clothes, little make-up and white
gloves.
Vera got her start on televi
sion, as did Grace. The chic Miss
Miles had Hollywood talking
when she played a breast cancer
patient on "Medic." She also
starred on "Four Star Theater,"
"Video Theater" and "Schlitz
Playhouse."
Villainess Portrayed
Then Joan Crawford got Vera
to play a villainess in "Autumn
Leaves." Director John Ford
signed her to costar with John
Wayne in "The Searchers" and
also dotted her to a one-picture-a-year
contract. Fox studio star
red her in "23 Paces to Baker
Street."
She now is finishing her first
picture for Hitchcock at Warner
Bros., "The Wrong Man." The
director figures when all these
films are released this year, Vera
Miles will be a hot new star.
But unlike Grace, Vera kept
her rights to work on TV.
Like Grace, Vera got married
last week, too-only to a Tarzan
instead of a prince. Miss Miles
was wed to the tree swinger of
the movies, handsome Gordon
Scott.
