The cake walk was planned at last Thursday's meeting. of the council. N. Centra! mm A type of party-giving and fund-raising common in other cities and sections of the United States is apparently not too well understood here. When the Jackson County Centennial committee decided to give a reception following the concert of the Portland Philharmonic orchestra, set for tonight at Medford High school, it was thought that everyone would understand the nature of the event. However, Mrs. Tom Popham,' Who was asked to be chair man, has had to answer many questions. When this sort of venture is undertaken in connection with a concert or pro gram, persons believed to be especially interested are invited and pay an extra sum for tickets. Tonight's reception will honor the director and musicians of the orchestra. The recep tion provides an opportunity for music lovers of the valley to meet and welcome the new director of the Portland Sym phony, the only symphony orchestra of this size in the state, and to meet the orchestra members. Too, it was thought that a party following the concert would make it an even more gala Centennial event. However, tonight's reception was not planned as a fund raising event for either the Centennial committee or the Philharmonic Society of Southern Oregon. Southern Oregon residents who attend the reception will be playing host to the 80 musician guests. Mrs. Popham is finding the chairmanship of the event interesting and valuable, since as time goes on and the pop ulation of this region continues to expand, events of this sort will doubtless become more commonplace. Some of the replies have been amusing- one man returned the proffered tickets with this succinct comment-'Sorry. Nice try." In San Francisco and probably all large cities parties are often given in connection with concerts, recitals, programs, plays and art exhibits, both to raise money and for the sake of bringing together a group of congenial individuals. For the recent opening night of the Bolshpi Ballet company in S. F., the Ballet guild bought up a huge block of seats-per-haps even the entire opera house-and sold the tickets for $35 each, netting the guild $10 on each. Part of this sum was then expended on a gay party which followed the per formance, with the dancers as honored guests. It was enor mously successful, we hear. . Potpourri's mail last week contained a note from M. Van Horn in Central Point saying that the Passion Vine about which we wrote not' long ago can be found growing in several valley gardens. Mrs., Miss or Mr. Van Horn-we don't know which is correct-wrote that these interesting vines are grow ing at the homes of D. R. Hendrickson on Bursell road, Everett Beach, 335 Alder, and A. D.jVan Horn, 154 South Fourth street, all. in Central Point; at the Laverne Botsford, Victor Brown and Helen Dusenberry homes in Sams Valley, and the Jack Hendrickson, Cecil Gabie and John B. Tilley homes in Gold Hill. The letter said "The Hendrickson home has 12." Mrs. John Hochstatter, who lives on Jasper street, here in Medford, also has one growing in her yard, and last week Mrs. John Connolly, who lives on South Newtown, called in to report that one grows in her yard and another (unless we' can't read oiir notes) in the Ernest Johnson garden. So now, when the next person calls up, as has happened to Potpourri three times in about 10 years, to say thaMhe Passion Vineiis rare, We can say with absolute certainly that it isn't. That is, unless M. Van Horn has misinformed us. Mrs. Connolly asked if the blossoms brought in by Elmer Parker (which started this Passion1 Vine business) were blue or red. (It was blue.) Mrs. Connolly reported that she had seen a red one growing in Golden Gate park in San Francisco. Mrs. C. also reported that she and her husband, trekking into the hills near Galice a couple of Sundays ago, found great patches of native rhododendron in full bloom. The road into the area she said was definitely not of the best, but the Connollys found their efforts fully rewarded by the sight of these magnificent blossoms. Rosiland Randies, genuinely excited over her experiences as a delegate to Girls State, gave an entertaining account of the event for her sponsors, mid-way Rosiland told how she had escorted theh new gover nor up for the inauguration ceremonies and said, excitedly, "Why, Governor Hatfield was right there-I could have touched him!" Then there was a long pause and Rosiland's face took on a thoughtful look. She finally said, with regret, "But you know, he looks REAL married."-O.S. Mrs. Ruth.Risley Home From Portland Mrs. Ruth E. Risley, 35 North Columbus avenue, re cently returned to the valley following a visit in Portland with her son-in-law and daugh ter, Mr. and Mrs. G. E." Wiley.
