Yukon Power Agreement Seen New York d'PD-i One of the first acts of the new state of Alaska may be to press Congress to offer Canada a port on the panhandle coast in exchange for waterpower rights on the Yukon lakes. This was disclosed to United Press International by Alas kan Territorial Delegate E. L. (Bob) Bartlett, an ardent ad vocate of developing the pow er resources of the huge Yu kon river for both Alaska and Canada. "I am sure the Alaskans will use their greater influ ence in ' Washington when they become a state to press vigorously for a Yukon power agreement with Canada," Martlett said. "The State De partment has let the . matter lie dormant since 1953 and the Aluminum Company of America, which in 1952 offer ed to build a half -billion dol lar aluminum smelter near Skagway if Yukon power were made available on the Taiya river; says it is no long er interested. Nevertheless, both Alaskans and Canadians feel that ultimately the 900, 000 kilowatts that could be generated by the project will be needed to develop both the panhandle and adjacent Can adian territory."

MAIN AND m?5 'Much Ado' Entertaining Play With High Calibre The 18th Oregon Shake spearean Festival opened in Ashland last night on a com bined note of villainy, love and comedy in "Much Ado About Nothing," which, de spite threatening weather was well received by a capacity audience. Although the play starts somewhat slowly, it rapidly increases its pace when the secondary plot with Benedick and Beatrice becomes appar ent. From the start, they mock each other and it seems only natural that, at the end, they should become devoted to one another. "Much Ado About Nothing" is one of Shakespeare's better known comedies, but it is also something a little more than a comedy. It mocks courtship and marriage, but Shake speare has put into his char acters the sincere human qual ities of serious love, loyalty and friendship. It is this combination which blends into an entertaining play, and last night's produc tion was. But any play, whe ther Shakespeare's or another author's, is only as good as those, whose job it is to pre sent it as the playwright pic tured it. Under the direction of Robert Loper, the presenta tion of "Much Ado" maintain ed the name the Festival has acquired during the past years of providing good entertain ment with high calibre acting. Harold V. Gould as Bene dick and Patricia Moran as Beatrice did a .wonderful job Engineers, AGC Continue Talks Portland (UPD Represen tatives of the striking Operat ing Engineers union and the Associated General Contrac tors were slated to meet here today to continue negotiations attempting to bring to an end the strike now in its third week that has halted construc tion in Oregon and Southwest Washington.

FIGHTS DISEASE KILLS INSECTS ROOM DEODORIZER Refills (Box of 4) 2 to 3 mos. supply . Drug CENTRAL in bringing laughter, and at the same time portrayed the seriousness of their belief that Hero had been wronged. Al though technically second plot the main one was the Clau-dio-Hero plot it provided the color to make the play suc cessful, and without fine act ing, without the portrayal of those parts as Shakespeare wrote them, "Much - Ado" would -not have been, so well received. ' Benedick, on several occa sions, "thinks out loud," and one of the more notable ones is the scene which follows a conversation between Claud io, Don Pedro and Leonato concerning Beatrice's love for Benedick, a love which is con trived by the three. There are several fine scenes in, which Gould and Miss Moran pre sent vivid dialogue. George Vafiadis does a commendable- portrayal of Claudio, and perhaps the most . outstanding spot is his denunciation of Hero in the church when they are about to be married. Vafiadis, with the looks and voice of a young man in love, seems to sway the audience to his side dur ing the denunciation. Picture of Innocence Hero, played' by Rosalyn Newport, is a picture of in nocence. Miss Newport, a vet eran actress at the Festival, did indeed live the part. Her finesse in moving about the stage, the pleasantness of her features and the tenderness of her voice all blend into Hero as' Shakespeare probably pic tured her in writing the play. Richard Graham, who has been at the Festival 11 sea sons, played Don Pedro, prince of Aragon, with his usual forcefullness. One of the cen tral figures in "Much Ado," the prince shows his faith in those who serve him by woo ing Hero for Claudio, and later sticking by Claudio when' he denounces her. Gra ham; has the stature of a prince, and voice for the part, but his top acting ability is i- ' " ' f 1 - IhV "-ra r: HBEJOflG OTA . .mV Film -filled- ft:.:-:-:;-:-: 3p . ? I ' " ' . Courtesy Medford Mail Tribune Portrayals better seen in more dramatic parts such as Othello last y'ear. Don Pedro's bastard bro ther, Don John, plays another important role, although he appears less on . the stage. Michael Addison portrays Don John, one of Shakespeare's most . villainous characters, with an appropriately evil ap pearance. His voice has a tone of wickedness which conforms well to his purpose of frustra ting Claudio's marriage to Hero. . .'Low Comedy' Dogberry, a constable who seems to try to avoid catching villains,-is probably , one of Shakespeare's best writings in "low comedy," and Hugh C. Evans does an H excellent job in his portrayal. As Di rector Loper said, "Dogberry is the universal image of all pompous stupidity in official dom," and it takes a good ac tor to remove himself from a more normal life, or part, into one such as Dogberry's. Evans does a remarkably good job of hopelessly confusing phras es through his irrelevancy of thought. There are. several lesser parts, all of which add to the complete play, and all of which seemed to fit the actors and actresses cast for the pre sentations. Michael O'Sullivan, who last year played the -memorable Cardinal Wolsey in "Hen ry VIII", is Leonato's old brother, Antonio, and plays the part well. Edward Grov er's presentation of Leonato is perhaps best after his daughter, Hero, is rejected and defamed at the church. Costuming, lighting, and a minimum of stage props made "Much Ado About Nothing" complete and entertaining. With the high calibre Festi val company this year, the three other plays should pro vide the association with a fine season. Tonight's produc tion is of "The Tragedy of King Lear" under the direc tion of Loper. E.H.A. Enjoy friendly Summer Camp with your friends for an entire week!
