manski retired from the
Army.
John served for 20 years,
his brother Leonard contrib
uted 23, Julius, 3, and Frank,

YMCA Day Camp
To Start June 20
On River Site
Starting June 20 the Med
ford YMCA will hold its third
annual day camp on the Ap
plegate river south of McKee
bridge for 60 boys, according
to Robert Jones, YMCA gen
eral secretary.
Participants will leave the
Y at 9 a.m. Monday through
Thursday on a bus and will re
turn before 5 p.m. each day.
Friday night they camp out,
and fathers are invited to
spend the night at the camping-site
with them.
Age limit has been set at 7
and 8 year olds, Jones said.
Older boys are urged to attend
the Diamond lake Y camp.
Emphasis of Program
The day camp program em
phasizes the study of wild life,
preparation of camp sites and
learning to build shelters,
cooking out, sand sculpture,
woodcarving, rock collecting,
bird study and hiking, com
bined with a daily swim, and
to generally make it possible
to give the boys experience in
group living, Jones said.
At the camp, boys are divid
ed into groups of six with a
trained counselor. The staff is
picked high school juniors
and seniors. Special attention
to safety in the woods is
taught by a ranger from the
Star Ranger station, and per
sonal safety is taught by the
camp staff.
Bruce Burns, YMCA youth
secretary, is program director.
Carl E. Gordon, a senior at
the University of Oregon, is
assistant dorector.
Adults with special skills in
astronomy, rope use, fishing,
gold mining, and nature lore
will accompany the boys each
day to help them in instruc
tion, Jones added.

News and Note
From Camp White
By SID HOLLINGSWOHTH
Medford has much to com
mend it as the metropolis of
southern Oregon, but the lit
tle neighboring town of Ash
land has in the face of war
and tempest, achieved an en
viable reputation as the Strat-ford-on-Avon
in the United
States.
Wherever the name Wil
liam Shakespeare is vener
ated, the Ashland festival is
known as the place where his
plays are produced in a sylvan
setting and on a stage, care
fully designed in conformity
with the Elizabethan tradi
tion. Camparisons are said to be
odious, but there is a parallel
in spirit, at least, between
the efforts that persisted to
make the Shakespearean en
terprise at Ashland a success,
and the same enterprise and
stick-to-itiveness that resulted
in the building and develop
ment of Camp White as a
home for disabled war veier
ens. The two interests, of course,
are not similar except as they
apply to bringing two distinct
influences into southern Ore
gon which are not indigen
ous to the region. It took a
great deal of the pioneer
spirit for Ashland and South
era Oregon college initially
to sponsor, and for the group
forming the festival associa
tion to press forward such an
undertaking, so far removed
from the cultural scene of its
origin.
The enthusiastic support of
the various volunteer organ
izations and public spirited
citizens of the area, who have
kept working to make the
agate desert, near Medford,
bloom and grow, comes from
the same frontier approach.
Now it is time to view in
retrospect something of the
nature of these achievements
in the post war period.
In the case of the Oregon
Shakespearean Festival, the
20th season is at hand with
a greater national and inter
national interest generated
than ever before.
A new Elizabethan theater
was dedicated last season and
for the first time, the cycle
of four plays from the Shake
spearean library was broken
with an original playlet
"Maske of the New World"
-a gesture in recognition of
the Oregon Centennial cele
bration. The season has now been

extended between July 25:
through Sept. 3, due to de-:
mand and the convenience of
patrons. Again one "extra"
will be presented-"The Duch
ess of Malfi" by John Web-i
ster. "Taming of The Shrew," :
Julius Caesar," "The Tem
pest," and "Richard II," are
the four plays of the master
to be offered tn rotation.
Angus L. Bowmer, produc
ing director, whose genius
made possible the unique
brand of showmanship ac
countable for the widespread
response among true lovers
of the theater, will not be
present this year. He is mak
ing a tour of all the other
festivals here and abroad, a
number of which have sprung
from his venture in this hal
lowed field of the drama.
As he leaves, he can give
parting glance at the firm,
reinforced concrete structure
housing his project and see
permanent home for the
dreams of the golden age of
literature. They can be re
enacted each summer as long
as the people appreciate such
a contribution to their cul
tural education.
It is worth the price of
admission just to see this
stage and contemplate the
artistry that conceived it for
the type of plays Shakespeare
wrote.
Lighting and costuming pro
vide the color to enhance the
poetry of the lines. There is
still work to be done in ar
rangement of lighting facil
ities for better effects, and
in addition of two at the
entrance.
On the left will be the
classrooms for the Institute
of Renaissance Studies, now
conducted by Dr. Margery
Bailey, professor emeritus of
English at Stanford univer
sity. To the right of the en
trance will be the festival
offices.
. Hichard L. Hay is the de
signer and technical director
of the new theater and Jack
A, Edson, of Medford, is the
architect.
William Fatten has been
the general manager of the
Oregon Shakespearean Festi
val for the past six years. He
says that ticket sales this year
are a month ahead of last
er, the examiners have
tough job in telling them they
can't drive, or are not qual
ified for a license without
making them angry.
Local examiners George
Plane, R. Leo Sevcik, and
Walter Michael have found
this to be true while being
exposed to these circum
stances nearly every day.
Like the other 43 Oregon
department of motor vehicle
driver examiners around the
state. Plane, Sevcik and Mich
ael are called upon to test the
driving knowledge and exper
ience of their employers, the
public, five days a week.
Two Powerful Hazards
In their occupation, they
face two powerful hazards
the wild rumor and the wild
ride. Both seem inevitable.
Occasionally, drivers in
larger cities start a rumor
that it's easier to get a license
from examiners in outlying
field offices even though the
department's standards are
the same statewide.
Examiners throughout Ore
gon use the same phrases
when administering a law test
or vision test. They are taught
to give drive test instructions
dispassionately and clearly.
They are taught to be polite,
but professional, engaging in
no small talk which might dis
tract applicants.
Despite the fact that all
driver examiners are carefully
selected on the basis of civil
service tests and given the
same 80-hour training course
at the central office in Salem,
each two-man examiner team
faces the hero-villain rumor.
Different Views
"Watch out tor the tall ex
aminer," says a would-be
driver, "The shorter fellow is
the good Joe. He'll pass you."
"Watch out for the short;
one," says another examinee j
who flunked. "He gets a per-;
sonal satisfaction out of;
flunking you. It's the tall one
who's the good guy."
The conscientious work of
examiners is apparent in con
sistently high ratings of the
Oregon program by the Amer
ican Association of Motor Ve
hicle administrators and Ka-;
tional Safety council, j
Each applicant who success-
fully completes his law and
vision tests moves on to a
drive test that 8'erages about :
15 minutes.
"Some are good drivers;
some are not. Believe me, it's
tough to reject a driver and j
keep his good will while do-j
ing so," examiner Sevcik says.
Even so, their public reia-j
tions seem to be high. A five
month survey of public opin
ion toward examiners com-i
pleted last December showed j
less than 1 per cent of 2,800 j
respondents unfavorable. !
Examiners Scvtik, Michaej
and Plane cover a territory
bounded by Medford, Ashland
and Cave Junction, Last year
they gave 5,?72 law tests,
4,122 vision tests and 4,537
drive tests.
They are constantly in dan
ger of injury If an inexper
ienced driver makes a mistake
at the wrong time. Failing to
signal for turns, turning from
or into wrong lanes, cftanging
lanes without checking traffic
and signaling, falling to keep
check on conditions through
side and rear-view mirrors:
these are potential accident
causes and signals to examin
ers that the driver isn't ready
for a license.
Of course, it's the really
wild rides that stand out in
examiners' memories, like the
time the mayor of a coast
town completed his drive test
by driving through a plate
glass window. He didn't get
his license that trip,

Those who have not been
to Ashland for some time will
find significant changes. The
Shakespearean a t mo s phcre
has been enhanced by the re
modeling of the Lithia hotel,
now the Mark Anthony which
will open July 15.
Also, a new look is pro
vided by the Improved Ash
land Tidings, a daily news
paper, well edited and print
ed, A recent account of the
city council action, approv
ing a budget of close to two
and a half million dollars for
the coming year is significant.
Two major improvements
in the interest of health call
for approximately a million
of this amount. They are ex
penditures for a new hospital
and for a sewage disposal
plant.
Edd Rountrce, the present
publisher of the Tidings, is
much interested in tne worn
done at the VA Domiciliary
and plans in the near future
to run a feature story about
Camp White today.
It has been the Ashland
Elks who have donated the
services of Emil Krocger as
VAVS representative of the
State Elks association for the
past few years and thus an
other spoke has been added
in the ever turning wheel of
events provided for the vet
erans of the various organiza
tions throughout the Rogue
valley.
And SOC is now providing
much needed encouragement
through frequent visits by fac
ulty members, whose talks,
including those of President
Elmo Stevenson, have been
well received.
