Newspaper Page Textf Editorial Comment NEW BOARD MEMBER A woman who has proved her interest in young people and their schooling is the latest appointment to the State Board of Education. She is Mrs. Moore Hamilton of Medford, appointed by the governor earlier this month .o replace Mrs. V. E. O'Neill of Klamath Falls whose term expired in July. Klamath County and the entire area should be glad that Southern Oregon has not lost its representation on that state body. It was particularly pleasing to be introduced to Mrs. Hamilton by Mrs. O'Neill on Monday. Mrs. Hamilton came to Klamath Falls this week for the express purpose of making a personal tour of Oregon Technical Institute Oregon Tech is the only in stitute administered by the State Board of Education. The first board meeting of the new fiscal year is slated for Sep tember 4 at which time the members will receive the re port of the survey made by Dr. William Flescher on vo cational-technical training in Oregon. Mrs. Hamilton is a former newspaperwoman. She started her business career as a re porter on the old Medford Daily News when Dan Bow erman was city editor of that paper. She was then Eva Nealon. When she mentions that period in her life her eyes sparkle and she declares that "those years were the most interesting in my busi ness life." She married a newspaper man and they took a whirl at operating a weekly news paper of their own for a brief period. Moore Hamilton is how, and has been for many years, Medford's postmaster Mrs. Hamilton was later society editor of the Medford Mail-Tribune, a job she con tinued to hold for three years after her marriage. With the arrival of her chil dren, her interests turned to educational matters. She was DOORS and tub enclosures SELBY GcT Phone SP 3-3613 303 North Bartlett active in PTA work during their school years Old served for five years on the Medford school board. Service to one's community, county or state is time and energy consuming. Salaries accompany few appointments to state boards and all too frequently the only reward is the personal satisfaction of having tried to do well the job assigned. Mrs. Hamilton has taken the time and trouble to come over the hill to learn first hand what has made Oregon ' Tech a great school. And she promises to come again after the fall term has started. Klamath Falls Herald and News. 'FISHING' FOR SHAKESPEARE Here's a tip for those who have waited in vain for their teen-agers to show an inter est in literature. Take them on a fishing trip to Southern Oregon or a jaunt to Crater Lake. And, incidentally, get some tickets to the Ashland Shakespearean Festival. The queerly - spelled Old English words which are so hard for a youngster to wade through in a textbook jump to fast-paced life on the stage at Ashland. A set of accom plished actors does the inter preting, and the 300-year-old jokes take on new life. Children from the age of 12 come away from .the Shakespeare plays with the first realization that human problems and foibles haven't changed over the centuries. "The play's the thing" as Shakespeare says, but it is not the only thing at the Fes tival. This year a set of danc ers entertains before the play The most interesting dance is one in which six young men brandish swords at one an other, eventually weaving their blades together until they form a six-pointed star. Minstrels stroll through the festival grounds chanting their lays. Lavish costumes add color to the setting. What a pleasant way to study literature. The next ime Shakespeare appears on a student's reading assign ment, it won't seem so omi nous. A visit to the plays may even encourage the . parents to blow the dust off the fami ly set of Shakespeare to bone up for next year's "fishing trip" to Southern Oregon. Oregon Statesman, Salem. GOP Opponents To Ike's 'Vital7 Bills Few, Unconcerned Only about one-half of the U.S. area believed to contain oil deposits has so far been explored for it. By RAYMOND LAHR UPI Correspondent Washington (UPD If the White House threw Congres sional roll calls into a card sorting machine it would find that only one Republican in Congress opposed President Eisenhower on his three "ab solutely vital" issues. However, it also would find that 43 Republicans in the House and six in the Senate lined up against him on two of the three. In a party speech last spring Eisenhower indicated that support for his defense reorganization, foreign aid and foreign trade programs was necessary from Republi cans who wanted his sup port in the 1958 campaign. Asked at his Wednesday news conference if that was still the situation, he replied that he had never said that any one man would forever forfeit his support because of a single vote or a single state ment. But he did say that he would not count himself in the "same local political camp" with candidates "at complete loggerheads" with him on the three issues. Ike Vs. Clevenger By that definition, only one Republican would be at loggerheads with the Presi dent on all three of the issues because there was almost unanimous support for reor ganizing the Pentagon. That bill passed the House by a vote of 402 to 1 and the Sen ate 80 to 0. , Rep. Cliff Clevenger (R. Ohio) cast the only dissenting vote on the defense reorgani zation bill. He also voted against the bills authorizing the foreign aid program for the current year and extend ing the Reciprocal Trade law. Clevenger need not worry, however, about not getting presidential campaign sup port. He isn't seeking reelec tion. On the foreign aid and for eign trade measures, 43 Re publicans and 22 Democrats in the House voted against the administration on both. In the Senate, six Republicans and three Democrats voted against both. Six Dissenters Listed The GOP senators were Henry C. Dworshak (Idaho), Barry Goldwater (Ariz.), Wil liam E. Jenner (Ind.), William Langer (N.D.), George W. Ma- lone (Nev.) and Milton R. Young (N.D.). Only Goldwa ter, Malone and Langer 'are candidates this year. Jenner is retiring and the other two do not come up for election this November. Sen. Frank A. Barrett (R. Wyo.) who also is a candidate this year, voted against the administration on the trade bill and was "paired" against it on the foreign aid measure. The men in direct charge of the GOP campaign to re gain control of Congress ob viously did not consider sup port of the President on all three issues to be essential. Sen. Andrew J. Schoeppel (Kan.) chairman of the Sena torial Campaign committee, and Rep. Richard M. Simp son (Pa.) chairman of the Con gressional Campaign commit tee, both voted against the reciprocal trade bill. Schoep pel also was "paired" against the foreign aid measure.

"(UPD Mrs. Mabel Allen, 52, Board- man, was flown from the rugged, isolated Wallowa mountains to a hospital here Thursday afternoon by an Air Force helicopter. The woman suffered severe bruises, shock . and exposure Wednesday night when she was thrown from a horse near Aneroid lake, which is about 10 miles from the nearest road. A doctor vacationing in the area said the woman could not be carried out to the road because of a suspected serious back injury. A call went out to the Air Force at Portland air base and Thursday m o r n i n g . a whirlybird was on its way to this eastern Oregon commun ity. Guided by a single-engined plane piloted by Eldon Down, chief of the La Grande area air search and rescue organi zation, the 'copter flew to the lake and loaded Mrs. Allen aboard. First Lts. Dennis M. Chase and Thomas E. Sallows, pilots of the helicopter had some difficulty'taking off from the lake. Thunderstorm activity and turbulent air hampered the flyers.

Hospital attendants report ed that Mrs. Allen was in "satisfactory" condition. t Fugitive Charges Face Two Men .
