Sorority Chapter Holds
"Prelude to Spring ' Show
A preview of spring and
summer fashions for Medford
and Rogue valley women took
place at Rogue Valley Coun
try club Monday afternoon.
The event was the annual
spring fashion show, luncheon
and card party of Alpha Rho
chapter, Beta Sigma Phi. Pro
ceeds are used for a scholar
ship for a Medford High
school girl who will enter
the field of nursing.
Using the theme "Prelude
to Spring", members, former
members and friends of the
chapter modeled clothing
from Burelson's store. As in
dicated by fashions reports
from New York, Paris. Lon
don and Rome, there are no
new and startling silhouettes
this spring. White and pale
shades of beige are popular,
but those favorites of former
years, navy blue, black and
white, and red, were all
shown. Dresses with matching
or contrasting jackets are on
the scene again for spring and
summer, skirts were for the
most part just below the knee,
necklines are sometimes
scooped out, both back and
front, and outlined with white
collars. Many of the pumps
and slippers worn by the
models were of the new bone
or beige shades, but bright
colors to match prints and
black were also worn.
Mrs. James Tengesdal,
president of the chapter, wel
comed the guests and Mrs.
Alan Sterton opened the show
by modeling a pure silk frock
and linen coat in the new
coffee and cream shades.
Models who followed her
down the runway were Mrs.
James Callan, chapter spon
sor, Mrs. Chester Ashton, Mrs.
William Tycer, Mrs. Bob Nor
ris, Mrs. William Chapman,
Mrs. Robert Goodman. Mrs.
Fred Dariielson. Mrs. Russell
Budreau. Mrs. William Wern
er and Mrs. Curt Butterfield.
One of the costumes model
ed by Mrs. Norris was a black
and white checked skirt and
jacket of synthetic material
matched with a black blouse
of pure silk. The ensemble
was accented with one of the
new high-rising hats in red.
An ensemble modeled by
Mrs. Callan was of sage green,
an attractive shade, and one
of the more outstanding cos
tumes was a black and white
diamond pattern coat dress of
imported cotton pique.
Among costumes worn by
Mrs. Ashton was a smartly
styled suit of imported silk
topped by a grey striped coat.
One of the more interesting
dresses was a shirtmaker
dress of border - print silk,
worn by Mrs. Tycer.
Mrs. Robert Hercher served
as commentator. For the event
she wore a smart grey suit
with grey and blue hat.
Music was provided by the
J. H. Lusk Piano company,
with Mr. Lusk and Mrs. Ron

During intermission a hu
morous skit was provided by
Mrs. Tengesdal, Mrs. Good
man, Mrs. Richard Riggs and

Window exhibit Harmed
As a preview and promise
of coming shows, the new
Rogue Valley Art association
announces a window exhibit
of three pieces of artsitic
work opening today at Bar
ker's store. This is the first
such effort of the new asso
ciation, formed a few months
ago to promote artistic en
deavor and appreciation in all
phases.
The exhibit is made up of
a scupture by Jan Zach, Eu
gene, a watercolor by Wil
lard Martin, Portland, and a
casein painting by Charles
Voorhies, also of Portland.
The Zach work, entitled
"Leaves" is of iron and brass
puddling. This sculptor's work
is described as dramatic and
expressive, but not beautiful
in the conventional sense.
Born in Czechoslovakia in
1914, Jan Zach was trained in
Prague both as a sculptor and
a painter. In 1939 he was com
missioned to do sculptures,
paintings and other work for
the Czechoslovak pavilion at
the New York World's Fair.
For the next 11 years he was
in Brazil, where he won great
distinction as a sculptor and
where he often collaborated
with Oscar Niemeyer on im
portant commissions. From
1951 to 1958, when he joined
the School of Architecture
and Allied Art at the Univer
sity of Oregon, he lived in
Victoria, B.C. Mr. Zach is
president of the Northwest In
stitute of Sculpture.
Willard Martin's "Frosty
Morning" is loaned by the
University of Oregon Museum
of Art, for exhibit in Med
ford. Mr. Martin attended the
University of Oregon, where
he was awarded the Ion Lewis
scholarship in architecture in
1955 for study at the Palais
des Beaux Arts in Fontain-
bleu, France. He was award
ed the Ina McClung scholar-
ship in arcintecture ior uie
year 1956-57, ana was graa
uated in 1957. He was for a
time with the architectural
firm of Wilmsen and Endi
cott in Eugene and later went
to Portland. "Frosty Morn
ing" was a purchase award
winner in the first annual
Oregon Art Alliance Member
ship exhibit sponsored by the
Friends of the Museum in
Eugene.
Of the three artists whose
works are shown, Mr. Voor
hies is the best known in
Medford since he lived here
as a young man and is a
