The eight scouts who partici pated in the encampment on Bear Creek are Miss Mary Friend and Miss Karen Johnson of Medford; Miss Sandra Ullian and Miss Judi Drais of Grants Pass; Miss Heidi Jones, Miss Doris McLane and Miss Janice Paxton of Lake view, and Miss Sue Oliver of Paisley. Also camping out with the girls were Miss Martha Stevenson, who is the chaperone for the group to the roundup, and Mrs. Michels Rossi, Rogue Valley Council president. Miss Friend is patrol leader and her assistant is Miss Oliver. At the week end encampment the scouts practiced setting up four tents, two girls to a tent, so that they could raise them in QUICK ANSWER Tamms, 111.

They also erected the cook tent which is 12 feet long and 9 feet wide, and they went through the cooking procedures to be using at the roundup, pre paring exactly the same menus. The girls are given 20 minutes to get the charcoal fire in readi ness for cooking, and 40 to cook their meal, with 20 minutes scheduled for clean-up. Two girls each were assigned to cook, to set tables, to clean-up and to do the "grounds" kaper, scout language for "chore." This last group prepares the way for the next activity. In the morn ing when the scouts get up, they must roll up their sleeping bags, and prepare the tent for inspecting. It must be in a con dition to use for craft work, if there is one of the frequent Michigan showers. With this foundation of actual experience and practice in their roundup encampment techniques the patrol is believed ready to leave for the roundup June 24. The group will travel by car to Portland where the girls take the train for Chicago and De troit. En route east, they will tour Chicago. While at the roundup there will be special trips to nearby points of inter est, and on the return trip west, a day will be spent at Glacier National park in Montana. for fresh or baked desserts.

One of the interesting new personalities we met was Dr. Eleanor Gutman, Portland, who will serve the Oregon Federation of Busi ness and Professional Women as president this year. Potpourri had the pleasure of sitting next to Dr. Gutman at a dinner Thurs day night and found her charming, with a ready and witty tongue. Dr. G. enjoys her work with the Oregon State Department of Health, likes good food flavored with herbs, loves animals and can tell amusing stories about herself. Watching Potpourri rummage in a handbag, she told us about the "purse files" or gadgets which have compartments for holding the numerous odd articles which women put in their handbags and which can be lifted out and transferred from purse to purse without disturbing the contents. It sounds wonderful, and we plant to hunt one. Then Dr. Gutman began to laugh and told how embarrassed she was at a recent din ner when the waitress tactfully pointed out that a piece of silver ware had somehow gotten into her large "tote bag" which she takes to meetings. x A week or so later Dr. G., deep in an important conference, reached absent-mindedly in the big bag for something and with a small scream, jolted out of her by touching a foreign object, came up with a mouldy piece of lemon which had evidently fallen in with the fork. When Laura York inquired after the visitor's pet spaniel, which usually accompanies her everywhere. Dr. Gutman said she had regretfully farmed her out until her busy year as Oregon BPWC president is over. Another friendly new face on our horizon last week belonged to Mrs. Bruno Rath, who with her husband and son has come to Medford to live and establish a business. Mrs. R. said they had left their horses behind in Eugene, but had brought along Velvet, their pet Dalmatian. Velvet soon settled down in the new home, but had a little trouble learning how to use the little swinging door which the previous owners of the house had made for their dog. Velvet eventually solved the problem, but the hard way. She shoves the door hard, waits while it swings out, catches it on the rebound on her nose and then sneaks under. This reminded us of an interesting bit of news which came re cently from Mrs. Fred Carter of Ashland. Mrs. Carter's daughter, Paulena Carter of concert fame, and her husband, Jack Wormser, raise Dalmatians at their country home near Hollywood and re cently sold some to the Anheuser-Busch firm. Many who have seen the famous team of dray horses which this company uses in it's advertising will remember that at least one Dalmation, known for years as the coach dog, is always seated on the wagon with the driver. Mrs. Wormser was in St. Louis last winter for a piano concert, and during her stay in that city visited the Anheuser-Busch farm where the horses and dogs are maintained and reported to her mother on the fabulous institution and expert care which is lav ished on both the beautiful horses and dogs. a This is the month of graduations for Dr. and Mrs. L. D. Inskeep and their family. Dr. Inskeep was honored by being asked to march in the academic procession for the 1956 graduation of the Univer sity of California, Berkeley, his alma mater, and his wife, his two sons and one of his three daughters sat in the grandstand of the athletic stadium in a state of excitement over the solemnity and meaningful ceremony, pageant-like in its color and drama. Dr. Inskeep wore the scholar's gown which his mother had worA when she received a doctor of philosophy degree from the University of Chicago 56 years ago, and which he had worn previ ously when he received his doctor of medicine degree from the University of Oregon. His bachelor's degree had been received at Berkeley 35 years ago. Dr. Annie Dolman Inskeep, mother of the Medford physician, is now 92 and still enjoying life at her home in LaJolla, Calif. A student of psychology, particularly as applied to atypical children, she is the author of text books in use by colleges and universities. The day following graduation at Berkeley, the Inskeeps hurried to Santa Barbara to attend the University of California graduation there because their son-in-law, Paul Lawrence Vigas, received his bachelor of science in geology. And that isn't all in order to at tend the important family events, Charles Inskeep gave up his own graduation ceremony at Medford High school. Today another son-in-law of the Inskeeps, Forrest Riordan, will be graduated from Stanford university, receiving his doctor of medicine degree, and the Inskeeps planned to attend if the doctor's duties here did not prevent. Dr. Riordan will also wear the Inskeep gown. Americans traveling in Spain marvel at what is considered "news" in that country. Dr. Edna Landros, retired University of Oregon teacher, described one issue of a Madrid daily while speaking for the Medford chapter, Oregon United Nations associ ation, at a meeting Thursday night. According to Dr. Landros one issue of ABC contained the following "news": The first three pages were devoted to a dull, pedantic, poly syllabic discussion of Nietzeche. The middle six pages were de voted to advertising and the Jast seven pages listed all the pro cessions and observances of Holy Week in Spain. Foreign news consisted of a three-inch one-column article at the bottom of one page in the middle of the paper announcing the freeing of Spanish Morocco, and advising Spain's neighbors to the north to follow suit. Girl Scouts, (or is it Boy Scouts?) are supposed to do a good deed every day. If adults of the county want to do a good deed for the scouts, they could volunteer to go to Lake o' Woods next week end and work at- Camp Low Echo. According to Maurice Ritchey, building chairman, and A. L. Nash, who loans equipment to be used in putting the camp in order, there's a desperate need for help if the camp is to be made ready for the season. Four new buildings must be constructed to meet the need of increased enrollment and there's lots of cleanup work. Mrs. Ritch ey said the camp looked like a baby tornado had struck it some time during the winter; trees are down all over the site. Men with saws and hammers are needed for this work while women and Girl Scouts put the buildings in order. Excerpts from husband and wife conservations: Wife says "I see Jeanette already has her washing hung and it's only nine o'clock; she must have gone to early mass. Husband answers "Oh, are they doing laundry at the Catholic church now?" Wife asks (listening to radio) "What's the name of that composition?" Hus band answers, "That's Symphony in D major, Mambo 385, by Mozart." O.S. Have YOU considered . ENRICHING RELAXING You can forn at ; liora . . . AH Appre ciation, Pointing. Sketching.

NEW BLEACH New York (U.R) New for the laundry; a bleach which doesn't damage clothes even if the homemaker uses too much of it and lets the garments soak too long. The manufacturer says the bleach is a dry, chlorine-type in quick-dissolving beads, and can not harm cotton, linen, nylon, dacron or orlon, even in the strongest solution. Children of some Berber tribesmen in North Africa wear pigtails hanging form the crown of their otherwise shaven heads. According to tradition, the pig tails enable angels to pull chil dren up to heaven. In Seattle, Wash., business men can go fishing on their lunch hours.
