o :3 o o o O o TUESDAY. AUGUST 2, I960 Khrushchev Wants To Use Britain As Add roach -- r By K. C. THALER United Pieu International London - (BPII - Soviet Pre mier N i k i t a KhjQshchev wants to use Britain as a bridgehead for a future agj proach to the United States. Khrushchev's designs have emerged from recent diplo matic lers whichtoscow's Egppaganda machine has been putting out to Britain. i official and personal con (g;ts the 5emlin has tried to find out whether PrimittSin- ister Harold Macmillan wuig once s?aiV be prepared to provide a 'bridge" to the United States But MacnS&in, badly Mt by the collapse of the summit wVTh he worked so hard to IjCmote, (3es not want to be used as a mjgjum for Khru .shchws zig-aghg co-exist-ence policy. Csjarp Criticism , The Soviet approaches have taken we form of sharp criti cis of Britain's failure to save the summit, and of more orjess "reminders" that Brit a is not playing her part now. O Other approaches haite bluntly accused Britain of Ce (Ti)g suberservOit to e Unit ed States and have urged her to revert to her role as me diator. Q These moves are the lirst steps in the Kwrnlin's prep arations for a new campaign to get EastO'est talks going By fANK For what seems like weeks, we've been talking about poli tics in tQs space. And . . , one supposes . . . we'll be talking about politics from now unr the first Tuesday after the first Monday of the coming November. Let's change the subjl -for today, at least. HAT to talk about? The community affairs of our area offer an interes'rfhg subject. Festivals, one might call them. Webster defines a festi(3) as "ajiericcal sea son of enteiHflinment of a specific sort; a time of FEASTING; a feast." Good ness knows, there's plenty o feasting at m'. of these com munity affairs of ours. One Cyomes away from them bulg ing like a hop sac O THERE'S the Red '.uff Bull -- Sale. It's one of tbi.Qldest of our community affairs, ving got its start about a quarter of a century ago. Originally, it ,-jvas exactly ' what its name suggests V. . a sale of bulls. The bulls brought for sale were chiefly range bulk . . . w.t one might QiV working bUSk. The idea was to improve the. quality of the range cattle of our region. It's diiferent now. Most of the bulls coming to Bed Bluff are aristocrats. They have genealogies as long as those of th bluest-blooded aristo crats Stf the Old World. They are gjjomed as carefully as a candidate for Miss America. (SrYrw, ring, they are wondel" People come to the ,ei Bluff Bull sale from alpVer the 11 Western States - not so much to buy bulls as to have themselves a wonderful time. They have it. There's no doubt about that. If yodopy be lieve i make reservations now for the first week' end of next February. (You !e to make reservatioiabout that far sfcead if you want to in the street.) that one avoicMlcepil It's an affair should miss. rpHEN there's the annual con A vention of ffie OrrVir of the Antelope. Iris heloPeach year on Hart Mountain, an 8.000-foot peak in the Hart Mountain fjtelope refuge awav overTh the desert &t of Lakevicw. Its original pur pose was to preserve the herds of antelnae that mge the area. Theeffort has been suc cessful. Great bands of the graceful animals can now be seen when conditions are favorable. People come each year from unbelievable dis tances to see them (and for . sundry other diversions, such as occasional mild libations .designed to prevent unfor (?Ptunate consequences in the event of snake bite.) The membership ranges all the way from Justices of the U.S. supreme court to corrw . panionable sheep heraers. The Order of the Antelope was unfortunate in the pnras Ing of its first rule, which reads: "No guns; no dogs; NO WOMEN." This has exposed the members to unfortunate suspicions from the distatt side. Like the Red Bluff bull sale, the annual trek to the antelope country has a quar ter of a century of back to U.S. as soon as possible after the new U. S. president has been elected. Khrushchev apparently has realized that he has gone too far in his attacks on President Eisenhower and that it will take more than a mere call fort conference from Mos cow to br' the new U. S. president into fresh negotia tions. Getting No Help far, Khrushchev has not been getting any j&flp from Maiillan, who v3 the chief advocate of summit talks be fore he was totally;t down by the Soviet leader. Macmillan is taking a back seat for the time being and marking time;fore deciding on whether there is any sense in tnkir any new imaative. The itish prime minister, who after the latest cabinet reshuffle is ;o virtually his own foreign minister, recent ly challenged Khrushchev to state clearly what he is after and to explain his recent in comprehensible policj' mes. Above all, he hopes for an early meeting with the new U. S. presider for a jojt fresh assessment of the worid situation before embarking on any new venture in cold war strategy. Any initiative from Britain will be largely determined by the conclusions of the first eeting between Macmillan and the man who is U. S. president next January. JENKINS ground No advance reserva tions are necessary, for the Blue Sky Hotel, where the clan gathers, extends from horizon to horizon. u TOU might draw from all A this the conclusion that,! uwi ovale ui ,iinusm is a rough and rugged region. You would be wrong. We have Ashland's annual Shakespearean Festival. 1 1 was founded in 1935 by a genius named Angus L. Bow- mer, who is iffill its producing director. Each year it pro duces three to four of Shakes peae's plays. On this year's schedule are "Taming of the S h r eijt'," "Julius Caesar," "The Tempest," and "Richard II." It has a national reputa tion. This year, fothe 10th time, one of its performances will be broadcast nationally over one of the big radio net- ) works. Films of the Fes'jyal will be televised widely over the country. The plays are produced on an open-air stage, patterned after the Fortune theater of Shakespre's time. It draws its players from far and wide. People come from all over the nation to see it. It is financed ocally, as was the Beautiful city park at the edge of which ( the playhouse is located. The opening pfetforvnance e a tqi year is preceded by an open air dinner in the park, which has become a meeting plac for the peofjne of all sr-ghin Oregon aniiar nchern Cali fornia.
