Dance Concert To End Series
Ashland Festival Chore
ographer Amanda Taylor will
present the Festival Dancers
in recital for the final Oregon
Shakespearean Festival Sun
day concert, August 28, at
4:30 p.ra, at the Festival
theatre. . ' .1
According to Mrs. Taylor,
the concert will consist of
three parts: the dances-on- the-
green, an Elizabethan Suite
with transition dances to show
how the flavor of Elizabethan
times may be used in modern
dances, and a solo number.
The ' Elizabethan s a i t e,
"Suite Galante Gaie," consists
of four parts, starting with a
pavane, an Elizabethan mel
ody discovered by W. Bernard
Windt, Festival music direc
tor. Basically the same melody
Is used for the different
forms, and has boon adapted
by Mr. Windt, Mrs. Taylor
said, starting with the Pavane,
and , 'continuing through the
Courwante, the Sarabande,
and the Galliarde.
The transition dances begin
with a fugue, a newer form of
music using bass, viol de gam-
ba, harpsichord, and recorder
as accompaniment. "As each
instrument enters, the dancer
begins to dance, so they are,
in effect, visualizing the mu
sic," Mrs. Taylor explained.
The next number is an Eli
zabethan r h um b a. "We're
doing it as the ' Elizabethans
might have done it," Mrs.
Taylor commented. The tango.
Rogue Valley Girl Scout
Writes of British Tour
By BETTY DUFFY
Traveling in England as an
American tourist gives one a
very one-sided view of the
country. This is why I am so
fortunate in spending my sum
mer in England, as a repre
sentative of the Girl Scouts of
the U.S.A. Following two
weeks of sight-seeing in Lon
don, our group of 24 divided
into four groups in order to
participate in the homc-hospl-tsility
portion of our trip.
I am in a group of two.
Nancy Kinsman, a Senior
Scout from Ohio, and I trav
eled to the county of Glouces
tershire in southwest England
where we stayed from July
27 to August 10.
I was fortunate in living
with four different families,
all connected With the Eng
lish Girl Guide movement..
During my stay In Glouces
tershire with the four fam
ilies, I lived in a small, village,
at the home of the headmaster
of a private boy's school,
above a town bank, and on a
farm. This gave me quite a
varied view of aspects of Eng
lish life.
Take Excursions
Conscious of the historical,
cultural, and general points
of interest in the locality, my
hostesses took me on numer
ous excursions. I explored
cathedrals, castles, and caves;
I visited remains of Roman
baths and Roman villas;. I
watched pottery being made
and later saw a "craftsmen's
exhibition" where it was on
display with other local handi
work; and I watched the Eng
lish sports of cricket, polo,
and gliding.
Because I am in England
In celebration of the fiftieth
anniversary of Girl Guiding,
many of - the activities are
Guide and Scout functions.
One of my hostesses was

News
the next number, is still a
newer form, but is done with
an Elizabethan flavor by the
dancers.
"There are endless things
we could do with the music,
but the tango is easy to recog
nize," Mrs. Taylor explained.
"We arc also going to do a
polka, because all folk dances
came Irom this source, ana
could very easily hnve been
done in Elizabethan times."
'We're doing all the dances
with couples, so the audience
can see the difference between
the dances," she explained.
To utilize the three levels
of the Festival's theatre stage,
the dancers will dance the
number, "Design for Three
Levels," with dancers on all
three playing areas. They will
also do "Courantc Sylphldc,"
using the music for the finale
from the Festival's 1957 pro
duction of "As Vou Like It,"
Festival Dancer Virginia
Bowman will do a solo num
ber, "Variation of the Queen's
Theme," showing how Eliza
bethan music can be used as
an accompaniment for a dance
that is balletic in style.
All music used for the con
cert is Elizabethan, and will

company. I attended several
of the , company's meetings
where I found girls of many
ages grouped into patrols. A
feature of one of the meet
ings was the ceremony of in
vesting a Queen's Guide, the
highest rank in the Guide pro
gram. Visits Camps -
I also had the opportunity
of visiting five different Guide
camps. Here, girls acquire
skills of establishing a camp
site of tents, lashed items
such as wash stands and lug
gage racks, and build numer
ous types of fires. The camps
ranged In size from 14 girls
to over 700 girls.
The latter camp which was
in Worcestershire, was ad
jacent to the location of the
Worcestershire rally. Many
other foreign . Guides and
Scouts were also guests at the
rally. Exhibits had becrt pre
pared of our respective coun
tries. Folk dancing and skits
on the theme oi r amous
Women," comprised the main
segments of the program. -
The highlight, however,
was an address by Lady
Baden-Powell, the world chief:
guide. It was she who start
ed the Guide movement in
Great Britain 50 years ago.
I had tlie honor of meeting
her personally. In our conver
sation I learned that, although
the goals of Guides and Scouts
throughout the world are the
same, the methods of achiev
ing these goals differ. Lady
Baden-Powell expressed the
wish that, through visits and
exchanges such as the one
this year, the methods can be
more unified.
I hope that my experiences
in England this summer, and
through the impressions and
information that I bring back,
I can 'do my part to help
achieve .this end,-

think that the Far West is the wild, uncouth, hinterland.
While attending a family party in Pennsylvania, a poorly in
formed cousin remarked "Why, your clothes look Just like
those we wear In the United States. Where do you buy them?"
Her daughter, said Mrs. Davis, was infuriated when a
candy store clerk in Atlantic City disappeared with the
purchase, stayed what seemed like ages and at length came
back and said apologetically, "I'm sorry to keep you wait
ing, but I've been trying to find New Mexico in the foreign
postal rate guide and It doesn't seem to bo listed."
The visitor said that once, some years ago, a teller in
a Medford bank hesitated about cashing a check on a New
Mexico bank and had to be convinced that the paper could
be handlcdtlike a check from any other state.
Mrs. Davis is a teacher, like her Medford sister, and
said that she began a one-woman campaign to inform the
public about New Mexico, beginning with people in that
state. She said many of the public school teachers, both
natives and imports, weren't adequately informed about the
state, and that she had worked out a course "What is New
Mexico to help correct this deficiency. It is being incorpor

Mrs. Fred Strang had a story, too, although not about

to consider the front end of

months, the demand for cuts
from the hind quarter of beef
