that to be accomplished in 55
minutes. 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

NOTHING
DOWN
Potpourri
Last week brought a couple of new faces onto our horizon.
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.

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.

Nurses Return
From Convention
Miss Gertrude Molloy and
Mrs. Christine Bates, Medford
registered nurses, have return
ed here after attending the 40th
annual convention of the Am
erican Nurses' association held
in Chicago. Seventeen delegat
es attended from Oregon, in
cluding the two from Medford.
Three Oregon nurses were el
ected to national offices and
three others served on commit
tees at the convention.
Over 1,100 nurses attended
from the 48 states and territor
ies. "Working for American
Health," was theme for the con
vention. Miss Yvonne Bowles, Univer
sity of Oregon medical school,
school of nursing, was elected
first vice-chairman of the Na
tional Student Nurses' associa
tion, which has a membership
of some 64,000.
OSNA's official bulletin won
an award for production excel
lence and two honorable men
tions for general excellence and
best feature story.
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. Sportsmen find some of
the nation's finest salmon fish
ing in Elliott Bay on Puget
Sound within sight of Seattle's
' midtown office buildings.
