Webster are making their home at 2191 Meals drive, Medford, following their re turn from a wedding trip to southern California. Mrs. Webster is the former Bonny Gay Holmes, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Artie Holmes, 324 Crater Lake avenue, Medford. Mr. Webster is a son of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Webster, 4425 South Pacific highway, Med ford. The Rev. Raymond Walters officiated at the 4 o'clock afternoon wedding held June 13 in the Park Wedding chapel in Reno, Nev. The bride wore a white waltz length gown of hand clipped chantilly lace - over tulle fashioned with fitted bodice and full skirt. Her fingertip length veil was held by a crown of pearls and she carried a white orchid en circling white carnations on a white Bible. Her' pearls were a gift from the bridegroom. Mrs. Richard Dolan, Phoe nix, attended the bride. She wore a baby blue waltz length frock of net over taffeta with white . accessories. She car ried a pink rosebud bouquet. Richard Doland served as best man. Following the ceremony a supper was held for the mem bers of the wedding party at the Lawtons Resort Motel dining room in Reno. The couple traveled to southern California and Dis neyland on their wedding trip. For her traveling attire the bride wore a melon' col ored chemise frock with white accessories and white orchid corsage. The bride attended Pros pect schools and is employed as payroll clerk for Sierra Cascade Pine company. Mr. Webster attended Phoenix schools and is employed by Dean - Taylor Pontiac in Med ford.

The outfit by Chips 'n Twigs Is made of a washable Lowenstein fabric IPnttpnirairirn We're always hearing that the best stories are never printed, and the best pictures never taken. We're sure the best pictures of the Fair Oaks drive street dance were never taken they would "have been available before or after the party. Five couples on Fair Oaks drive, the Stanley Starks, Bill McLaren and his wife, Jane and Jim Shaw, the Fred Lewises and the Don Jacksons, dreamed up the bright idea of giving a party in the street. It is a "dead end" street which widens out at the end like a ball on the end of a curved stick, and proved to be a very good place for an outdoor party. - There is something new under the sun, after all, for not only was the idea of a street dance unusual in this city, but the hosts procured their decorations from Harold's club in Reno, of all places. One of the hostesses had heard this bright idea in Eugene, and sure enough, the club manage ment obligingly shipped to Medford a number df funny signs, tricky little aprons and a quantity of other material, some usable and some quite unsuitable for this particular party. The signs bore such statements as "Don't talk with strangers they may be lawyers," or "Don't spit on the street it leaks." But back to the pictures Saturday night Mr. Stark sug gested that we should have been on hand that moniing, when the five host and hostesses, wearing shorts and in their bare feet, were swabbing down the street in preparation for the party. Sunday, we hear, the clean-up campaign had many more picture possibilities since 120 guests, more or less, leave considerable debris after a picnic-type party, and the 10 "givers" worked really hard to make the attrac tive neighborhood neat and pretty again. Tudor guild must have made a tidy sum of money for the actors' fund Sunday afternoon and evening, for the large crowd seemed to be in a spending mood. The Heyday proved a good place to renew acquaintances. We met- Robert and Rae Dodge, formerly of Ashland and now of Eugene, where Mr. D. is on the faculty of the university. Mrs. Dodge, who introduced her attractive daughter and son, said that they had read in the Eugene Register-Guard of the Heyday date, and lost no time in making preparations to attend. Also in the throng were Dr. and Mrs. L. W. Buonocore, their daugh ters and Mrs. B's sister and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Tickton, who arrived not long ago from Great Neck, New York, with their children, Judy, Diane and David. The trip west was interrupted by a mis-adventure when Judy Tickton was thrown from a horse during a stay at a dude ranch, suffering injuries which hospitalized her for a time. (Note Mrs. Buonocore says that residents of - Great Neck are really and truly referred to as Great Neckers.) The Justin Smiths, home from Alaska, brought a number of interesting anecdotes concerning the celebrating which followed the announcement that the territory had been voted statehood by the congress. The Smiths were in Fairbanks at the time, and one of the ideas there was to dump chemicals into the rivers to make the water "run with gold." The chemicals used were identical to those in survival kits for use at sea and the schemers found to their dismay that they didn't work in fresh water as they did in the salty ocean water. The rivers turned green. One Medford family has been intensely interested in the statehood news. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Morris lived in Anch orage for a number of years and their daughter, Sylvia, was born there in 1941. Mr. Morris' brother and sister-in-law, the V. H. Morrises, still live in Anchorage and sent the Medford family copies of the Anchorage Daily Times special edition printed for the -statehood celebration. It had a red flag imprinted across the front page type, and the big head lines were in blue. Mrs. Morris, her daughter and Potpourri found the ad vertisements, particularly those of food, most Inter vertisements, particularly those of food, particularly inter esting. Having always heard that prices in Alaska were simply scandalously high, we read with interest that Folgers coffee was 89 cents a pounds, frozen strawberries were sell ing four packages for 89 cents and frying chickens for $1.19 each. v Sally Champlin, wife of Medford police chief, whiled away the hours spent in the new Rogue Valley Memorial hospital recovering from an appendectomy by keeping a diary. Sally C. decided at once that the hospital was won derful and dubbed it "The Waldorf of the Rogue River val ley." She wrote that the food was wonderful, even for a patient on a soft diet, soon became accustomed to a disem bodied voice answering her bell and loved her electrically controlled bed which glided smoothly up and down at the touch of her hand on the switch. Mrs. C. was amazed to hear roosters crowing in the very early morn, but found out that the chickens might just as well wake her up since the official waking time was 5:30 a.m. anyhow. (This routine has never been satisfactor ily explained for many a patient). Sally C. also wrote that she was frightfully curious about the other patients and wondered what had brought them to the hospital; she also wondered if the nurses realize that their voices carry right up from the parking lot below so that the patients can hear everything they say; her third wonder was why wasn't the second floor air conditioned, since the others were. She also decided the wallpaper de signers didn't know his flowers since he had drawn carna tions with zinnia petals and rose leaves. The patient concluded by writing that after three days she began to "feel the spirit and pulse of the hospital" and said that the staff is "dedicated and sympathetic." Quotation frpm a speech by President Eisenhower on April 16, 1953, (published by the Committee for World de velopment and World Disarmament) "Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed." O.S. Midget Meatballs Bulk pork sausage, made into balls the size of hazelnuts and baked in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, make appealing hors d' oeuvres as well as the seasoning and garnish for frozen vegetables such as spinach and green beans.

For dessert, sprinkle fresh pineapple with powdered sugar and top with a sprig of mint or a maraschino cherry. Stewed, dried fruits are a pleasant change as a breakfast starter. For added interest, cook paper thin slices of or ange or Jemon with the fruit. 617 E.

The professional people who know about vitamins and nutritional supplements are doctors of medicine and registered pharmacists. The peddler's "knowledge" probably consists of a prepared sales talk which he memorized. Which may or may not give you all the facts. So, don't buy vitamins or nutritional supplements from door-to-door peddlers. Get them from a registered pharmacist who knows what he's selling and gives you what you pay for.
