Large Audience Attends Final Festival Concert Ashland - A large audience gathered at the Shakespear ean festival theater yesterday afternoon for the final con cert of the 1960 series and saw a program of dancing planned and executed with imagination and skill. Four festival musicians accompa nied the dancers, and provid ed brief interludes of instru mental music. Choreographer Amanda Taylor not only arranged the numbers and trained the danc ers, but provided a commen tary which was most helpful and heightened the pleasure of the audience. Mrs. Taylor has a friendly personality, gives her comme with au thority and also possesses a voice which can be heard well back in the open-air theater. Mrs. Taylor opened the pro gram with a group of typical Elizabethan numbers with such entertaining titles as "Four Men a-Leaping, Four Maids a-Dancing," "Quaint Device" and "Hobson's Choice." This latter number, in which a single male dancer divides his attention among a group of admiring females, has been one of the numbers presented for the nightly "Dancing on the Green" and is extremely popular with the audiences. Of this group, Mrs. Taylor described "Not Mad, But Mer ry" as the "rock and roll" of the Elizabethan period, and contrasted it with a "mom and dad" dance, the stately Sarabande for Eight." Four dancers, Sandra Schu- erman, l-red Strange, sally Shively and Dennis Zorn, pre sented the "Allemande Roy ale," one of the most pleasing of all the numbers. The "alle mande" is a familiar dance term which has come down to present days where it is used in square dancing. It was at this point in the program that the girls changed from their Elizabethan type cos tumes to the more modern nd most effective costumes consisting of a closely-fitting black blouses and full, color ful satin and taffeta skirts. The skirts were especially good for the free - flowing "Courant Sylphide." Mrs. Taylor explained that "cour ant" means "to run." Intrigued with the possibil ities of the three stage levels of the Elizabethan theater. Mrs. Taylor arranged "Design for Three Leccls" with two dancers on the small, top in ner stage, four on the inter mediate level and the remain der on the main stage in ta bleau effect. Virginia Bowman presented traditional ballet number which provided contrast in both costuming and dance form. Both Bernard Windt, festi val music director, and Mrs. Taylor, loosed their imagina tions for the final "Suite Ga- lanteet Gaie" and the results were excellent. Mrs. Windt, discovering an interesting bit of Elizabethan music, set to work and devised eight vari ations which the choreogra pher used for eight dances of varying tempo and theme. They were a pavane, a cour ante, a sarabande. a galiiarde, a fugue, a rhumba, a tango and a polka. The stately, cour teous pavane and sarabande provided contrast for the live ly, foot - stamping galiiarde and polka, and with the tango Mrs. Taylor and her dancers interjected a bit of comedy which the audience loved. In the fugue, four dancers, Dennis Zorn, Will Mackenzie, Jane Stevens and Judith Of ford, were "teamed" to the four musical instruments on stage, the harpsichord, the string bass, the viol de gamba and the recorder, played by Rossme Taylor, Lynn Sohler, Susan Shively and Judy Bjor lie. For some numbers Aman da Taylor added to the rhythm with a tambourine and for the rhumba and tango adaptations, the music was augmented by trumpet music played by Ted Lawson. The interlude music by the four festival musicians includ ed numbers being used this season for "The Tempest," and "Taming of the Shrew. Other dancers appearing yesterday were Milton Fuchs, Edgar Vandevort, Anthony Christleib, Michael Pierce, Di ane Sonderskov. Yesterday's program was a decided success. Much of the impact on the audience, which demanded an encore number, was due to the fact that Mrs. Taylor sharpened the program with just enough of the mod ern touch. An entire program of Elizabethan dancing might have proved boring. -O.S.

Animals Topic For Talk To Society Of Artists Medford artist Hal Bishop congratulated members of the Southern Oregon Society of Artists Wednesday night for their part in the growth of art appreciation in southern Oregon. The group met at Girls Community club.' Mr. Bishop said that "the world wide interest in the arts shows an upward trend in education," which he de clared can be attributed in part to the artists of today The artist showed color slides which he had taken of different animals, including deer, Hereford calves, horses, buffalo, house cats, lizards. elk, dogs and chipmunks. He said that, basically, these an imals have the same bone structure, and their structural movement is very much alike He compared the different breeds, such as the bone structural use of the lizard and that of the horse, the liz ard having the same bone movement at the horse. An other example compared the skeleton of the horse to that of the human in a four-legged stance, rather than upright. Mr. Bishop also showed pre pared illustrative sketches of the structural composition of a horse and discussed the movement of the bone struc ture in coordination with the muscles and flesh of the body. Using a large layout chalk he demonstrated the effect of light and dark on the drawing of an animal, and showed the group where the shadow would fal on the body of a horse with a given light source. Color Mentioned He explained that every color has a main color, a high light, and a shadow. "To paint is to draw, the artist said. "To paint or draw well means to practice and study and to learn how to manipulate and assemble objects or living things in a pleasing arrange ment with a correct use of light and dark." Mr. Bishop advised the members of the society to look into the science or chem ical content of the paint me dia at hand. Mr. Bishop, who has been commissioned to paint the Jackson county rep resentation for the state fair in Salem, has submitted a picture which is a combina tion of parts of the valley -Rogue River, Table Rock, a herd of Hereford cattle and a pear orchard. The painting, six feet high and 12 feet long, will be on display at the fair Septemcei- 3 through Septem ber 10. Showing Announced A permanent showing of members' works is planned for the Village Variety store, Stewart avenue. Paintings by Mrs. Ross (Ruby) Twedell and Mrs. Leonard (Ada) Andrews are on display there for the next two weeks. Mrs. A. J. Costello has just completed a week's instruc tion course at the Lincoln County Art center, Delake, Oregon. The instructor was the nationally known eastern watercolor art instructor, El liot OHara. Southern Oregon artists who wish to join classes in watercolor under the Instruc tion of David Hagerbaumer should write or phone the art ist at his residence in Ash land before September 13. Members of the society who won ribbons in the annual AAUW summer show in Grants Pass were the grand prize winner, Eugene Bennett, and blue ribbon winners, Mr. Bennett in the oil painting division, and Charles H. For ester, Ashland, in the sculp ture division. Thomas Staley received a red ribbon in the sculpture department and Mr. Bennett received honorable mention.

As a little girl we went to school and learned our three R's plus a little geography, history, etc. We learned about ordinary letters, and capital letters. But we didn't learn about registered capital letters. It wasn't until we became a newspaper reporter that we learned about registered capital letters, and we're still learning, darn it. Our education was furthered recently by a letter from Levi Strauss and Company (we warn the printer and proof reader right here that this name better be spelled and capitalized correctly). We learned that such firms as Levi Strauss and company excuse me, Company, register their products and more than that, they pay employees to read and read and whenever they come upon a name which is not written exactly as registered, they write letters. The letter which came to the editor noted that Potpourri had mentioned a certain product and had spelled that product "levis" instead of "Levi's." ' "May we take this opportunity to advise you that Levi's is a trademark registered in the United States Patent Office and denotes products manufactured only by Levi Strauss and Company. As such, the trademark is spelled with a capital "L" and an apostrophe "'." (This business of quo tations marks becomes frightfully involved). "We are sure," continued the letter, "your use of our mark Levi's as stated in the article was unintentional. Nonetheless, we do respectfully request that any future use you may make of it be in the manner In which it is registered. "We are all too well aware that the mere suggestion from a trademark owner that his mark has been misspelled or incorrectly used must often seem to a reporter both un appreciative and technical. That is why we seek your friendly understanding In helping us to protect the Levi's name by spelling it as we do." That noise you hear is a big sigh from Potpourri. The list of trademark registered products is so long Swiss (the fabric), Kleenex, Coca Cola, (and Coke), Ping Pong, Cater pillar, Jeep, Frigidaire, and hundreds of others. Maybe next time we'll be perverse and just say the cowboy wore blue jeans. Then we'll probably get a polite but firm letter from some company pointing out that we have to spell it Blue Jean's. O.S. Dealing With Women New York - fflPB - Most com panies deal with female em ployes as though they were males - and this state of af fairs, says Industrial Rela tions News, is the cause of many of industry's problems with women. In a special report, the man agement newsletter also noted that more detailed knowledge of the motivations, goals and abilities of women workers might result in a substantial rise in their productivity as employes.
