Farm Youth Exchangee Ends Visit in Central Point Home Jackson county's 1957 Inter national Farm Youth Exchange representative. Miss Josephine Tombs, left this morning for the University of Wisconsin at Madison. Miss Tombs, who lives on a dairy farm near Tewkes bury, Gloucestershire, England, had been in the county sinre July 10 and during that time lived with Mr. and Mrs. Charles Taylor and family. Central Point. From Madison Miss Tombs will go to Ohio where she will live with Ohio farm families until September 25. Miss Tombs Was accompanied to Madison by John Farrington, an Irish IFYE, who had been staying in De schutes county. Young Farring ton arrived yesterday and last evening the two young people conferred with Mrs. Winifred Gillen. member of the Oregon State college extension staff who is in charge of the IFYE pro gram in this state, and their stay in Oregon was evaluated. Miss Tombs had arrived in Oregon May 25, and she visited in Wallowa and Washington countips and attended part of the 4-H summer school at Cor- vallis before coming to Jack son county. During her stay with the Taylors, the young English woman helped with the house work, and with the milking and participated in all the family activities. She attended Grange and 4-H club meetings and social functions, such as neighborhood birthday parties. The visitor was taken to Cra ter Lake, which she termed "fabulous" and on the Chamber tti Commerce sponsored tour of the Ashland loop country to see wildflowers in bloom. Miss Tombs said Oregonians were "friendly and wholesome" people and apparently enjoyed her stay here very much. She commented on the great differ ence between the Tombs' farm home in England, and American homes such as the Taylors, with their many "luxurious gadgets." Miss Tombs' home was built in 1621, and the oak beams in the large kitchen came from a ship which was one of the Spanish Armada. It has a stone floor, which is scrubbed on hands and knees every other day. The dairy also has stone floors and walls, and these also are hand-scrubbed about three times each week. Since the farm has no modern refrigeration, the milk, butter, eggs and other per ishable foods are stored in the dairy building. The visitor was particularly interested in the wide variety of packaged foods, which are almost unknown in Er.land. Miss Tombs was doubtful that such foods as packaged cake and pie mixes would find favor in her country. English farm wives can and preserve fruits, but few vegetables, and use very few canned vegetables in meal pre paration. The visitor, accustomed to 11 a m. and 4 p.m. tea at home, did without these while in Ore gon because she wanted to live as her hosts did. She explained that on her home farm break fast is about 6 a.m., morning tea at 11 a.m., the main hot meal is served at 1 p.m., tea at 4 p.m., and the evening meal about 8 p.m. English farm meals are much plainer than in the Unit ed States, she said. Miss Tombs was particularly excited to be able to attend a dress rehearsal of one of the Oregon Shakespearean festival plays Sunday night. She lives about 40 miles from Stratford-on-Avon in England and has it- j tended performances of the Shakespearean plays given in the theater in that city. Miss Tombs explained that the Stratford theater in England is modern in character, and was designed by Americans. "I have to travel half-way around the world in order to see a real Elizabethan theater." she ex claimed and expressed pleasure M4IL TRIBUNE "1 . i ' at the way Shakespeare is staged in Ashland, and at the quality of the acting.

MONICA LEWIS ce-tafriB w TH D.L- Mark VII ProOuctna Piestottd bi Warm Bros. i IT :,: 1 Council Head Would Convert Fifth Avenue into Bike Path BY GAY PAULEY United Press Correspondent New York (W This here town's sure changing. The Giants are leaving . . . The Dodg ers may. Now. there's a move afoot to turn Fifth Avenue into a bicycle path on weekends. This last matter came up just as the avenue began plans for a golden anniversary celebration as the world's showcase for fash ion. It will be staged October 10-18 by the Fifth Avenue asso ciation, whose 1,100 merchant members work to keep the thor oughfare a "mecca of quality." Now, along has come Shane McCarthy, executive director of President Eisenhower's Youth Fitness council, with a proposal that the street be restricted to bicycling on weekends. He would do the same for other main drags in other cities, as one means of keeping us all fit. -Inactivity can cause rot,'' said McCarthy bluntly. "Well, his suggestion would have to go before our board of directors," said William J. Sloan, the association's secretary for 33 years. Maybe it should go before a lot of new Yorkers and tourists as well. Could be that bicycling is what we all need to prevent the "human erosion" Mr. Mc Carthy mentioned. I won't quar rel with the expert. But the only way to know Fifth avenue inti mately is to walk It. Ride a bike in Central Park, say I. How other than by walking can a girl have time to dream before a jewelry window at Car tier's or Tiffany's? It takes a stroll to see the lat est in fashions from New York, Poris or London either in the shop windows or on the mink clad women. Why do you sup pose Irving Berlin made Fifth avenue the setting for a sonnet about a bonnet! If McCarthy's proposal should catch on, there will be a lot Family Leaves After Visit Here Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Rodda and their two sons, Larry and Bruce, left Sunday for their home in Sacramento, Calif., after spend ing a vacation here with Mrs. Rodda's brother-in-law and sis ter, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Chip man, Highland drive. The two families motored to Crescent City Sunday; Monday the Roddas continued to Sacra mento, and the Chipmans re turned home. Guests Leave Mr. and Mrs. Forrest Spencer and son, Forrest Jr., left Med ford yesterday after having been guests here of Mr. and M4s. Paul R. Smith, Madrona lane. Mrs. Spencer, a' nurse, and her son are returning to the couple's home in Miami, Fla., while Mr. Spencer, an employee of Pan American Airways, will go to Mexico City where he will work in the Mexican headquarters of Pan-American for several weeks.

IIP Mrs. Jobeda Khanam says that most American housewives have no idea how fortunate they are. Mrs. Khanam a native of Paki stan, is in this country to study agricultural and industrial de velopment, under the auspices of the International Cooperation Administration. She is visiting family groups in Kentucky mountain and rural commun ities. She said that 80 per cent of American housewives have most of their work done for them by commercial groups something that 80 per cent of Pakistani families cannot afford. ' Mrs. Khanam, holder of four university degrees, said 60 per cent of a mother's time in Paki stan is occupied with cooking and preparing meals. About 20 per cent have some sort of sew ing machine, but one per cent or less have electrical facilities. She believes that electric pow er is her country's most pressing need at the present time.

From this time on, the clear clinking and charming tinkling of glass will be heard. It may not be fair to compare the ancient musket and the noisy meal tray. But Food Serv ice officials of the U. S. Air Force, ever on the alert for the best for their boys, have re placed all meal trays with dur able tempered glass tableware throughout their dirting halls. Muskets, naturally, were re placed sometime ago. Air Force spokesmen said that the tempered ware was chosen because it has proved to have "the most nearly perfect" sani tary surface, and because it it less likely to break than some materials.
