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

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

' Tech a great school. And she
promises to come again after
the fall term has started.

'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.

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.
Floods Ease
In Oklahoma
By United Press International
Floodwaters - eased off ' in
the Wewoka and Seminole,
Okla., areas today, ending an
impromptu rodeo in which

they drifted down the creek
and drag them to safety.

Woman Rescued
From Mountains
Enterprise, Ore. "(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. Chase remarked
after arrival here that he
"thought for a minute" that
the 'copter wasn't going to
get off the ground.
Mrs. Allen and her hus
band, Art Allen, operator of a
service station at Boardman,
were vacationing in the area
when the accident occurred.
Hospital attendants report
ed that Mrs. Allen was in
"satisfactory" condition.
