Hundreds of pictures of cake cutting have been printed
in The Medford Mail Tribune, but never one quite like
that printed below. This picture shows a former mayor of
Medford, Earl Gaddis, cutting an anniversary cake served at
the Student Government day banquet, while Seth M. (Mr.
Medford) Bullis stands by to give his moral support. The
cake was served at the banquet, given by Medford Elks, to
call attention to the 75th anniversary of the founding of
Medford.
A I
Both the former mayor and Mr. Bullis have seen many a
day come and go in Medford, and both have taken an active
part in shaping the city's destiny. Mr. Gaddis,: who was
mayor of the city in 1923-24, recalled that he came to Med
ford in the spring of 1903, riding a horse. He was born in
Roseburg, and although the former mayor has traveled in
many other parts of the United States, still believes that
southern Oregon is a wonderful place to live.
Mr. G. was on the city council before he became mayor,
and after his term in the mayor's office, was water commis
sioner for a number of years. During this period the city
began to develop its modern municipal water system, bring
ing water from Big Butte springs.
Mr. Bullis arrived in Medford in March of 1913 "in a
snow storm." He recalled that it took five steam engines to
pull the Southern Pacific coaches over the Siskiyou moun
tains. Mr. B., with his father and a brother, were interested
in the Sterling gold mine. They installed an electric power
system and other modern mining equipment. After a time
gold mining became less profitable, so the operation was
closed and Mr. Bullis eventually went to St. Cloud, Minn.,
where he worked with the St. Cloud Public Service com
pany, which served a large territory. ' :
- But the man who in 1960 would be called "Mr. Medford"
by some of his cohorts, liked the far West and returned in
1918 to become division superintendent of The California
Oregon Power company, and stayed with they firm until his
retirement a few years ago.
In the almost 20 years Potpourri has known Mr. B., he
has been president or chairman of many public service
groups, such as Red Cross and Civic Music. What's more,
he has so many friends he's invited to almost as many .wed
ding as the society editor and is a faithful patron of dozens
of benefits. .
"What kind of pictures are you having today another
one of Princess Margaret?" inquired "Shorty," the make
up man one morning this week as we prepared to put the
women's page together. "None of Margaret today," we said.
"But I have 10 upstairs." When he gasped , and looked
startled, -the society editor assured him that just because
they came in on the wire machine didn't mean we would
run them.
"Well, there's one sure thing," offered Printer George
Longie. "After the Princess is married not many people will
be able to say they keep up with the Joneses." .
Nothing is sacred from students who decided to conduct
surveys. From Grenoble, France, comes word that a group
of students worked for two years on a survey of how many
lies people tell. According to Women's News Service, the
students found that an honest man tell five fibs per day,
and an honest woman tells up to ten. A dishonest man
averages fifty per day, and "we have not been able to
reach an approximate figure for dishonest women." There
must be a reason for this horrible conclusion, but right now
we can't think what it could be. O.S. ' ' '

Gay Pauley
By GAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Editor
New York -(UPD- Twentieth
century electronics have
come to the aid of a ritual
old as man-kind-the
mat
ing game.
The m e
chanical brain
to some de
gree even
measures sex
appeal, that
quality which
makes a Mari
1 y n Monroe
into a global institution, says
Lee. Morgan, a graduate so
ciologist. Miss Morgan, a brown-eyed
brunette in her early 30s, and
happily wed, is founder and
director of the Scientific In
troduction Service, Inc., an
organization which uses the
push-button as well as per
sonal approach to help those
searching for a mate.
Miss Morgan, a graduate of
New York university, said
that in the four years she has
directed the service, she has
introduced between 5,000 and
6,000 persons most of them
in their 20's and 30's. The
marriage rate runs "between
10 and 15 per cent."
What Happens
Here is what happens to the
eligible person who subscribes
to the service. First, there is
a lengthy interview with Miss
Morgan and another one of
her staff trained in psychol
ogy, during which your case
history is recorded your age
(yes, women must tell), wheth
er you have been married be
fore, if so, whether there were
any children, where you were
born, your family background,
religion, education, present
job, approximate income, hob
bies and other interests, if
you're a woman your attitude
toward your careers, and the
type of mate you're looking
for - quiet, garrulous, book
wormish, athletic, handsome
or average.
There is also a handwriting
analysis and a test of your im
agination and emotional re
action when you're asked to
create a story to go with a
series of pictures.
Then the service checks
yours, business connections -"we
bend over backwards to
check a person's background,"
she said.
; Miss Morgan then compiles
a dossier and "arrives at cer
tain conclusions about your
type." All this basic informa
tion is entered on a punch
card - pink for the girls, blue
for the men, naturally.
Electronic Sorter
; Your card along with hun
dreds of others is tossed into
an electronic sorter, and 20
to 30 possibilities ultimately
are selected for you. These
may be narrowed even furth
er, when Miss Morgan re
views the file - "you still have
to depend . on human judg
ment, no matter what a ma
chine says," she explained.
Introduction is arranged by
telephone, and Miss Morgan
said a client who signs up for
six months meets at least six
different persons; 10 or more,
if the contract is for a year.
Men put more emphasis on
physical appearance than
women do, she reported.
"Few women demand the
traditional tall, dark, and
handsome man," she said.
"Usually, they ask for the
manly type, for someone neat,
attractive and congenial; few
have, any reservations against
baldness. And more often than
not I hear, 'He doesn't have
to be a Clark Gable!' Few
specify money, but the young
women especially hope for
some promise of security, so
they can raise a family."
"Men seem definitely in-
