MAIt TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, ORE.
Populaires
Set Concert
Ashland Unusual light
ing and choreography effects
are combined to make an ex
citing production of the
Southern Oregon college
Populaires concert scheduled
for April 26 at 8 p.m. in
Churchill Hall auditorium.
The concert will be followed
by a tour of nearly 20 Ore
gon high schools within the
next few weeks, it was an
nounced.
Opening on a gay Paris
cafe setting, the transition is
quickly made to a contrasting
and beautiful setting lighted
through stained glass win
dows. Selections for this
scene are representative of
most of the major religious
groups.
Possibly one of the most un
orthodox settings according to
Louis O. Clayson, Populaires
director, is the western scene
which will complement such
songs as "Tumbling Tumble-
weed," "H o m e on the
Range," and "Cool Water."
Another impressive staging
is a night scene in silhouette
which fades into a formal
concert formaton for the
closing numbers. Only three
scenes throughout the eve
ning will feature the formal
concert formation, Director
Clayson said.
Built around the fourteen
voices of the Populaires and
spiced by numbers from the
male quartet, girls' sextet,
soloists, and top-flight musi
cal accompaniement, the pro
gram will range from Bach to
Mozart, to the popular
"Liechtensteiner Polka," spir
ituals, and folk songs.
Director Clayson announces
that no admission will be
charged for the concert and
cordially extended an invi
tation to all valley residents
to attend.

IPaDttpaDTniiri'i
"Do you know why women are called angels?" asked
Mrs. Mabel Winston yesterday when she spoke for a luncheon
sponsored by Rogue Valley Secretaries' association. "Be
cause they are always harping, are always up in the air and
can never find anything in this world to wear."
Mrs. Winston's little quip was brought to mind by the
title of a book about women, "Angels and . Amazons" from
which she quoted. Mrs. Winston, dean of women at South
ern Oregon college, often speaks for women's groups, and
while 'she always protests that she "just talks" and doesn't
know how to deliver a 'proper - address, she nevertheless
always manages to plant a few interesting ideas. In addition
to enlivening the event with her angel definition, Mrs. Win
ston brought along a cartoon which the secretaries particu
larly enjoyed. It depicted an employer, imploringly down
on his knees before a haughty secretary, and the caption
read "With six million unemplpyed, why do I have to do
this?"
' Remembering Mrs. Winston's words, Potpourri went dress
hunting. For years we've been declaiming aloud how we
hate to shop for clothes, particularly dresses, and wishing
"we could just wear a sack." Well, now that "sacks" are
fashionable, we couldn't even find one of those. And it's
the truth we do hate to shop for dresses. By the time we
explain to the poor clerk that it must be dark and washable
(if it's a summer dress) because a newspaper office is just
naturally not very clean, that it must be reasonably con
servative and businesslike, that it musn't have a high round
neck, because we can't abide them, that it must be comfort
able through the sleeves and shoulders because we stoop
over the typewriter, that it must be something one can
put on at 7 a.m. and wear until midnight that night, if the
day's schedules turn out that way, that we prefer navy
blue, grey, black or "something mingley" in tone, and last,
but certainly not least, it must be something which will prove
pleasing to pappy and about which the men in the news room
can't make too many remarks. (We could just hear what
EA and HC and the rest would have said if we arrived at
work one morning wearing an orange ice chemise with a
bow placed strategically in the back.)
If by some good fortune the clerk finds a dress which
meets all these requirements then it is either too snail, too
large or too expensive.
Pal Peg, back from New York City where she was pre
sented a national award for The Mail Tribune and for her
work as church editor of the paper, said she saw very few
chemise dresses except in shop windows.
In this country orchids just naturally are a part of
award and recognition ceremonies for women and Pal Peg
came in for her share five, as a matter of fact. When she
left she wore one, a gift from The Tribune's Countess, and
the news room gang ordered a big white one sent to her
hotel in New York. First Presbyterian church here sent
two, and at the award dinner she received another from' the
National Religious Publicity council.
The church editor made good use of her time in the big
city. She saw the hit comedy, "Who Was That Woman I Saw
You With," and "Sunrise of Campobello" which is receivinsr
high praise from critics and -audiences alike. She also was
able to get tickets to a performance of the Russian ballet
troupe currently appearing in New York.
.
The Tribune's farm editor, Joe Cowley, owns a little book-
entitled "National Proverbs of Scotland" which is a family
heirloom. Printed in the Scottish dialect, readers have to
consult the glossary in the back to make sure of the text.
It is filled with such gems as "A' are guid lasses, but whaur
do the ill wives come frae?" and "Gie your tongue mair
nouaays tnan your ftead." O.S.
