'Orfeo" On Opera Program Portland Premiere of the San Francisco Opera com pany's "Orfeo ed Euridice" is scheduled for September 6 during the Oregon Centennial Opera season, September 3-7. This will be the first time the San Francisco company has done a Gluck opera. It calls for new sets, new cos tumes and strenuous rehear sals, according to Kurt Herb ert Adler, general manager. Since the Company's season opens in Portland and is fol lowed by appearances in the bay city and Los Angeles, Centennial opera -goers will enjoy a real "first night." Mezzo-soprano Blanche The bom will sing Orfeo. Rise Ste vens, originally scheduled for the role, will not participate in the forthcoming season due to the inability to reconcile certain differences regarding contractual provisions. A favorite with the San Francisco Opera audiences, Miss Thebom is a member of New York's Metropolitan Op era company. She has appear ed with great success at the festival held in Athens, Greece; at Glynebourne, the Swedish Royal Opera, the Vi enna festival and the Moscow and Leningrad Operas. - Reservations are being ac cepted by mail order . only. Seats may be obtained by writing "San Francisco Opera, Box 500, Portland." Balcony admission is $2, S4 and S6. Dress circle and lower floor is $8. Because of the special de mands of the Gluck opera, "Orfeo" is not considered as a standard production. Pre sented in Vienna in 1762, the opera, based on Greek myth ology, is considered the first of modern opera with the mu sic carrying out the dramatic story. Other operas to be given in Portland include; September 3, "L'Amore dei Tre Re"; September 4, "La Boheme"; September 5, . "I Pagliacci" together with "Carmina Bur ana"; September 7 matinee, "La Boheme" with cast chang es; and September 7, evening, "Madam Butterfly."

New Line Cause of Shock Wave Paris - (CPD - Shock waves caused by the House of Dior's new short skirts rippled through the fashion world today, but for most critics and buyers the shock was a pleasant one. The exposed kneecaps in troduced Thursday by Dior designer Yves St. Laurent were a bit too much for British critics, but for almost everyone else the short look was as bracing as a cold dip - just fine when you get used to it. The newspaper France Soir said today St. Laurent is "engaged in a battle of the bare knee with the other Paris dressmakers," most of whom are pushing longer skirts this year. : Chances are better than even, according to th fashion professionals, that the "new short look" will enhance the prestige of the multi-million dollar House of Dior. Even If it-backfires on St Laurent, the world will not know it for at least a season. Buyers say that it takes that long or longer' for American women to "digest" a new Paris fashion and to accept or reject it. Many of the buyers went back to Dior's today t for a second look to decide which models to take home for reproduction. " .- .1 ! - - W - - Q PHONE MU5-877T) STAMPS PURCHASES ....

Cool f ' X Comfort Southpaw Cake Bakers Get Different Results Chicago (DPB-Your cake bat ter may be better if you're left-handed. A cake mix company execu tive recently discovered that cakes made by "lefties" dif fered from those beaten by right-handers. Edward I. Feigon, research head of his firm, had been puzzled because women on his testing staff kept making cakes of different qualities, though using the same recipes and electric mixers. He noticed that one woman. a leftie, put an opposite swing on the bowl of the electric mixer, causing intereference in the normal rotation of the bowl. This gave the batter more of a battering and caus ed a higher cake. But Feigon pointed out that this isn't the case all the time. "It all depends on the reci pe," he said. "Overheating can improve one recipe and ruin another." El Capitan, the huge granite block in Yosemite national park, is about three times as high as the Empire State building in New York.
