$k MAIL TRIBUNE. MedforJ, Oregon, Sunday. May 18. 1958
IPcoitjpcoraiiripS
This year there were no fountains, artificial flowers,
bright butterflies or silver stars hanging from a sky of
synthetic blue at the annual Junior ram 01 jueaiora rugn
school. This is the space age, when man not only dreams
of flying to the moon, but is building instruments and mach
ines designed to do just that. Theme of the Junior Prom
was "Things to Come" and in the high school gymnasium
last Saturday night the symbol of the nuclear age hung
from the ceiling, instead of tinfoil stars. Launching towers
replaced romance, and the 1958 Junior Prom queen walked
up a modernistic ramp to a "throne" which was a canvas
chair slung from slender metal supports and filled with
gaily colored cushions. .
The queen, too, was quite in keeping with "Things to
Come." For this year's Junior Prom queen isn't even a citi
zen of the United States she was Margareta Larsdotter
Aulin, a tall, slim, pretty and charming girl from a little
town in Sweden. Margareta's fellow students at Medford
High school like her and admire her enough to nominate
her as a senior princess and then to elect her queen, by secret
ballot.
Their choice met with hearty approval from their elders,
too. On every hand Saturday night could be heard wjirds
of approval from teachers, parents and friends. Mr. and
Mrs. Frank Bash, Medford couple with whom Margareta
has lived during her year here as an exchange student, were
as pleased over her selection as they would have been over
such an honor for one of their own daughters. They have
a deep affection for Margareta, and will be sorry to see her
leave for home the latter part of' June.
In return, Margareta has come to understand and like
her new friends in the United States, and when she returns
to Sweden, she will be one more link in the chain of friend
ship between this nation and her native land.
When Lena Conard was 15 years old, and a carefree girl
back in Kansas, a young man gave her a little bottle of maple
syrup as a present. "I won't use it now," Lena told the young
man. "I'll save it for our golden wedding anniversary."
Perhaps Fred Ryde didn't know then he would marry
'Lena. But he did and Lena kept her promise. The Rydes
moved from Kansas to Colorado to New Mexico to California
to Oregon everywhere they went Lena took the little bottle
f syrup. She carefully packed it, and took care that the
)ottle wasn't broken.
On the morning of May 6 Mr. and Mrs. Ryde, now en
joying the golden year of their marriage, prepared pancakes
for breakfast and on them they poured syrup from the
little bottle which Fred had given Lena 53 years ago. The
yrup was still clear and sweet a symbol, perhaps and
the couple enjoyed every drop as they ate their golden wed
ding breakfast, deeply contented.
Albert Huntemann, band director, at McLoughlin Junior
High school, appeared with the Ashland High school band
last week as a guest conductor. Mr. Huntemann directed the
i and while it played a number he had written. His friend,
SCenneth Waldroff, director of the Ashland group, had ex
pended the courtesy and Mr. H., wondering what the compo
sition would sound like when played, gladly accepted.
Mr. Huntemann, too, is not one to look to the past for
inspiration. His song is entitled "Satellite." O.S.
