. TWO MEDrORp (OREGON)
Lectures
To Be Held
o
In Ashland
Ashland Dr. .Margery Bailey,
director of the Institute of Re
naissance Studies, the educa
tional department of the Ore
gon Shakespearean festival, has
announced two special events
for this week, both open to the
public at a charge of 50 cents.
Wednesday, August 21, the
fourth of the Trinity noon lec
tures will take place at Trinity
hall in Ashland. James Sandoe
will read Marlowe's "Tragical
History of Dr. Faustus." Sandoe,
director of this year's Festival
presentations of "Othello" and
"Two Gentlemen of Verona," is
professor of humanities and
purchasing librarian at the Uni
versity of Colorado. -
He is also widely known as an
anthologist and critic for the
New York Herald Tribune in the
field of crime fiction. In his sev
enth season with the Festival, he
has directed many of its most
admired productions, including
"Antony and Cleopatra," Rich
ard II," "Measure for Measure,"
"A Midsummer Night's Dream,"
and the "Henry VI" trilogy.
Thursday, August 22, the
fourth of the Gresham lectures
Is scheduled for 4 P.M. at the
Ashland .Library Assembly
room. "Biography in Tudor
England" is the subject to be
discussed by Gerard Barker of
Stanford university. Explaining
the topic,, Dr. Bailey commented
that "The form of the biography
is strongly Renaissance in char
acter, since medieval "lives"
were usually moral examples or
royal records in chAnicles of
the time. They were always flat
tering or idealized. The Renais
sance, bringing new interest in
actual experiences and political
figures, seeks increasingly for
motives, and spends time on
exact details. In Tudor days the
biography was ofen memoir
from personal observation or
, memory. This was the case with
George Cavendish's "Life of
Wolsey," which was the source
of Shakespeare's 'Henry VIII.' "

Nissen said the ball point pen

capita usage of pencils is at its

their pencils are filched from

New Records Set at
Festival Saturday
Ashland Several new rec
ords were set at last Saturday
night's performance of "As You
Like It" at the Oregon Shake
spearean Festival theatre in
Ashland.
The house, was completely
sold out, with several patrons
purchasing 'standing room tick
ets. It was also the largest audi
ence to attend a play in the Fes
tival's history, according to Bill
Patton, manager. In addition, it
was the earliest point in any sea
son that a performance has been
sold out.
With attendance remaining
high and advance sales still
climbing, the Festival is also
continuing to garner nationwide
publicity. Angus L. Bowmer,
Festival producing director, was
recently interviewed by Frank
Pinnock, news director at
KMED in Medford. The tape re
cording will be used Aug. 22 on
"Life and the World," a nation
wide NBC radio show. The Fes
tival's own coast-to-coast NBC
broadcast, highlights of "As You
Like It," will be aired at 6:05
p.m. (PST) Wednesday, Aug. 28,
Patton said.
John Williams, KMED pro
gram director, has supervised
and recorded three features for
use on the famed NBC show
"Monitor." Participating in them
were Bowmer, Festival Music
Director Bernard Windt, and the
theater's choreographer, Marcia
Taylor.

cation "Ford Times," is current

Sets New U. S. Record
Chicago (IPl , The output of
beef in 1956 set a new recor of
14,400,000,000 pounds, the Na

Daughter Contests
Disinheritance
West Chester, Pa. IP) Com
plicated litigation in the 13-mil-lion-dollar
will of the late in
dustrialist, Harry Publicker, will
go to trial before a jury in Com
mon Pleas court here on Oct. 7.
The will, which has; been in
dispute since 1951, was contested
by a disinherited daughter, Mrs.
Maxwell J. Mangold of New
York and Miami.
Although Publicker lived and
maintained his business head
quarters in Philadelphia, he
maintained his voting residence
in Easttown Township, Chester
Ciunty. J. Paul MacElree, presi
dent judge of the Chester county
Court here, set the trial date.
The suit was brought by Mrs.
Mangold in her own right and
on behalf of her three children.
She alleged that a codicil which
cut her out of a share in the
estate was drawn and signed at
a time when her father lacked
testamentary capacity bacause of
a stroke suffered in August,
1951.
The other heirs contended
Mrs. Mangold had been provided
for prior to her father's death.
The litigation has been pend
ing for years, and only last year
Judge MacElree ruled that it
should be submitted to a jury.
In his opinion at the time,
MacElree said that the only
point for a jury to decide con
cerns "testamentary capacity of
the deceased."
He added that "there is no
credible proof whatever of , the
existence of undue influence or
fraud," which Mrs. Mangold also
had charged in her original suit.
Publicker was president and
founder of Publicker Industries,
a huge industrial alcohol con
cern. To complicate matters further,
a second suit is pending in the
Publicker will case. Harry Pub
licker's widow, Rose, died sev
eral years ago, and her will is
being contested in Philadelphia
courts.
The chief beneficiaries under
terms of the wills of, Harry and
Rose Publicker were their son-in-law
and daughter, Mr. and Mrs,
Siman S. Neumann, and the
Neuman's children. Neuman is
present head of Publicker In
