scribed certainly sounded a trifle hectic
She traveled all over the United States and in Europe,
appeared at numerous events where candidates for 1959
were chosen, attended water ski tournaments and rodeos,
aided civic drives, presided at pageants and generally made
herself useful and charming to promote the interests of her
sponsors.
Miss Van Debur. who was accompanied by her mother,
Mrs. Francis Van Derbur of Denver, is loyal to the Miss
American program and says that the winners are selected
on the basis of talent and other qualities rather than mere
physical beauty. The young women who enter are mostly of
college age and anxious to earn scholarships for career
training and study, she said. The Pepsi-Cola company, which
brought her to Medford, contributed $105,000 to the scholar
ship program this year, she' said.
Miss America is a blonde, much to our surprise, and
looked cool and fashionable in an' apple green gown made
with a harem skirt and worn with green satin pumps. She
says the Van Derburs are a "close family and do everything
together." Her three sisters and her parents went to Atlantic
City when she was a contestant, and will go again for the
1958 pageant where her successor will be chosen. "I can't
do without them," she said. "They're my gallery!"
Marilyn was a student at the University of Colorado,
Boulder, when she was chosen Miss America, and will re
turn this fall as a junior to continue her studies in music.
She doesn't expect to have any trouble "settling down" to
college, because she has always liked her studies and school.
She hopes to marry and have a family.
Are you "just a housewife?" Well, listen to this. The Nor
wegian Social Affairs Ministry believes that "Housewives are
the most important professional group in the country, pro
ducing more wealth than the farm and forestry industries
combined." To show that they mean what they say, the Nor
wegian and the Swedish governments, have a service
whereby they send housewives on two-week vacations at no
cost to the women. Whafs even more astonishing to a wom
an of the U. S., anyhow they send in vacation time maids
who run the house and even help with the chores, if it is a
farm household, while mother is away. If the family can af
ford it, part of the maid's expenses are paid, otherwise the
vacation is completely gratis.
The article stated that this summer it is expected that 3,000
Scandinavian women will take advantage of the plan. One
thing is sure, if such a program went into effect in this na
tion, a lot more than 3,000 housewives would jump at the
chance for two weeks away from the kitchen, washing ma
chine and ironing board, to say nothing of pa and the kids.
The society editor remarked last week with some weari
ness, that there is practically never anything new in a wed
ding story. That was before we read the wedding of Nadine
Rue and James Woods, held in Hornbrook. The story, written
by the Tribune's reliable correspondent, Mrs. Katherine Chip
man, said that the bride's cake was baked by Sergeant Sambo,
who has baked cakes for brides in the Gosney family for sev
eral generations.
Sergeant Sambo (his name is Sergeant it's not an Army
designation) is 98 years old and he is a pure-blood Klamath
Indian. It is said that he was given the name "Sergeant" be
cause his father had once befriended an Army sergeant. The
sergeant gave his Indian friend his army cape, later the In
dian named his son Sergeant and now Sergeant Sambo can
be seen wearing the cape if he needs a wrap.
Potpourri found some good advice for college freshmen in
a recent article in the New York Times. While the panel was
made up of women and the advice was primarily , for fresh
men girls, some of it seems just as sensible for young men.
A panel of young women from several colleges in the
New York area had this advice to offer: Don't take on so
many outside activities that your studies are neglected, but
on the other hand, don't miss such opportunities as concerts,
plays and lectures, which round out college learning; don't
run wild" don't feel that you have to smoke and drink in
order to be accepted, but stick to your own standards; don't
be ashamed to admit that you have to study hard (it was
said that some students are afraid to be found studying be
cause they don't want the reputation of being an "egg head")
don't invite your high school boy friend in for a big week end
unless you want the rest of the men on campus to think that
you have a permanent alliance; don't ignore freshmen boys
because "freshmen boys who walk everywhere turn out to be
sopohomore wheels who travel around in snappy cars."
One bit of advice was especially good ior gins u you
don't want to loan your own clothes, don't borrow from other
eirls. One student said "either lay down me law io your iuum-
matp rifht from the start, or find one who is a different
size. O.S.

Ashland At 4:30 o'clock
today the Oregon Shakespear
ean festival will present the
fourth in its series of unusual
concerts of early music, bal
lad, and dance. The concert is
being staged by Marcia Thay
er, festival choreographer and
director of dance, with music
under the direction of W. Ber
nard Windt, director of music
for the festival.
Today's program will be
colorful and varied, with
dance developments from the
middle ages through present
times. Miss Thayer has tried
to capture the flavor and
mood of the various periods
in the history of dance, she
states. i
The "Suite Pre-Classica,"
based on an early dance form,
opens the program, followed
by an early medieval carole,
"Summer is Icumen in." This
is one of the earliest forms cf
dance, from England, where
it was believed that angels
constantly danced in circles in
heaven, and was imitated in
the period by its "Umdump
isher," as the choreographers
of that era were called.
The concert will be high
lighted by the appearance of
the Ashland Kiltie Pipers with
festival dancers joining them
in several Scottish country
and highland dances. A unique
staging of ballet and contem
porary dance will be per
formed to narrative poetry
read by Richard Graham, j
Nagle Jackson will combine i
with the dancers in singing
and playing four of his own
compositions as the dancers
perform an intricate pattern
of choreography based on
poses frpm medieval paint
ings.. The Festival singers will be
featured in a selection of Eliz
abethan ballads, ranging from
lyric to comic, with interpre
tive dancing accompanying
them.
The final selection on the
Sunday program will be 'In
A Moment of Whimsy," a
light vdance interpretation of
the casket choosing scenes
from "The Merchant of Ven
ice." Tickets for the Sunday con.
cert will be available at the
Oregon Shakespearean Festi
val box office prior to per
formance. Admission is fifty
cents for the hour and a half
long program.
