D. Werner. The overture to "Martha", an opera by von Flatow which will open the program, is gay and tuneful, but in the grand opera style. Great singers have ap peared in it including Enrico Caruso. It has long been a favorite and is in the regular repertoire of all major opera companies. Joanna Lester, 17 -year -old lyric soprano from Grants Pass, who recently won the Philhar monic Guild audition, will be soloist.

Rounding out the first half of the program, the orchestra will play two pieces by Rachmani noff, "Prelude in G Minor" and Floods of Spring" along with two pieces by Wagner, "Adagio" for clarinet and string orches tra, the solo to be played by Huot Fischer of Ashland, and Albumblatt" for string orches tra. The closing piece will be a "Suite Romantique" by Direc tor Werner, which he describes as a distillation of youthful im pressions and experiences. The suite has five movements; Prom enade. Elegy, Valse, Nocturne and Fantasia a la Marcia. Tickets are available at Pur ucker's Piano house, Swem's store, the Music Mart and the box office on the day of the concert.

The Youth Research insti tute reported that although today's young er set is apt to label mom and pop fuddy duddies, the teenagers themselves are old fashioned in many of their tastes. The girls collect Elvis Presley records, and then vote Clark Ga ble, old enough to be their grandfather, as their favorite male movie star. Old timers Gary Cooper, Robert Taylor and Bing Crosby are runners-up. The boys drive hot rods and then select Elizabeth Taylor and Grace Kelly as their favorite act resses. "Elizabeth Taylor is more like the girl next door," one 15-year-old youth in Pasadena, Calif, explained to the institute. "Grace Kelly looks under standing," said a 15-year-old Philadelphian.

A look through other institute statistics showed, he said, that "teenagers are not always the super sophisticates and ultra moderns they fancy themselves." One national study showed most girls think it is wrong to telephone a boy. Another show ed more girls are sewing and cooking than ever before. Rand said one study found 77 per cent of the teenagers think parental consent is necessary be fore getting married; most of them believe in bringing up large families; and 80 per cent of the boys said they liked the old fash ioned -idea that "woman's place is in the home." N w Jewelry One inventive jewelry design er is out with a two part neck lace which can be worn 20 ways. Judith McCann termed her crea tion the "Twenty-Twenty, a sight for good eyes." The many variations are made possible by a patented gadget called the "shuv-on," a trick fastener in rhinestone, which enables the woman to arrange the two 20 inch strands as say a four-strand choker, and with fancy pend ants, or chignon ornament. It also can be draped to play up square, round or plunging neck line. Mrs. McCann makes the neck lace in synthetic fresh water pearl, a glass bead with pearl ized coating. She said fresh wa ter pearl promises to succeed chalk white in popularity this summer, because women are tired of the latter season after season. Designer Ceil Chapman has decided that in a year of fash ions which expose the back, it is high time someone again bared the front. In her summer collection she included a formal chiffon gown with its halter neckline slashed to the waist. A separate, bra provides the wear er with the necessary modesty.
