MEDFORD MAIL ftw yrv w 1 William Cottrell, New York actor-producer who began his theatrical career as an actor in the Oregon Shakespearean festival in Ashland, is in the Rogue valley to visit relatives and see the I960' season plays. Mr. Cottrell is a guest of his mother, Mrs. Josephine Cottrell, 411 King street, Actor-Producer Cottrell Spending Vacation Here An actor-producer who be gan his theatrical career in the early days of the Oregon Shakespearean festival in Ash land, is spending a vacation in Medford. He is William Cottrell, who played various roles in pre-war festival plays and one year directed all four plays during the absence of Producer Angus Bowmer. Mr. Cottrell is in Medford to visit his mother, Mrs. Josephine Cottrell, 411 King street. In recent years the actor producer has appeared in sev eral east coast plays and has worked with the American Theater Wing as a producer. The Wing, formed during the war as a service organization to produce entertainment for service men stationed in all parts of the world, has contin ued as a non-profit group to promote theater. Last winter Mr. Cottrell directed Shake spearean plays, "Comedy of Errors and As You Like It which toured high schools in the New York area.

C. - The im portance of play in helping young children develop their physical and mental powers is emphasized in the booklet "Home Play and Play Equip ment for Young Children," just issued by the Children's Bureau. The publication up-dates one with the same title which has proved helpful to parents in meeting the playtime needs of their children. The revision was written for the Children's Bureau by Adele Franklin, Director of the All -Day Neighborhood Schools in New York City. It states that play and recreation are as Important "in the de velopment of families as in the lives of individuals." It tells how a child's play con tributes to his learning and development and what a child obtains both in playing alone and with other children. The publication suggests toys and simple materials for play both in and out of doors. An appendix provides de tailed description for building some simple and safe play equipment for the out-doors. However, the publication says, parents may find It just as economical to purchase much play equipment now available as to use the "do it yourself" method. Parents are told that while children get much pleasure out of tele vision, it may be wise to lim it the amount of time a little child spends at the television set since "the passiv.'ty of watching TV instead of doing something active is one of its drawbacks." The publication suggests play activities fur children from infancy up to school age which will fit in with their growing developmental needs and stimulate their imagina tion. It stresses the, wisdom of having some activities in which all members of the fam ily may share, and some which each child can enjoy by him self. The publication may be pur chased from the Superintend ent of Documents, U. S. Gov ernment Printing office, Wash ington 25, D.C., for 15 cents TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE. also has been in the cast of numerous television shows. Earlier this summer Mr. Cottrell served as resident di rector for the Philadelphia Playhouse's "in the park" pro ductions. The producer brought with him the script of a new play, the work of an American author living in Eu rope, for Edward G. Robinson to read. The play's main char acter is that of an 80-year-old man and Producer Cottrell be lieves that it is one of the strongest and most interesting roles to be created by an American playwright in some years and added that "it has the King Lear theme. He is hopeful that Robinson will consent to play the role for a Broadway production. Actor-Producer Cottrell, a graduate of Phoenix High school, attended the Univer sity of Oregon, studied at the Cornish School of Drama in Seattle and later appeared in a number of Hollywood pro ductions. He states that his in terest in the theater, and es pecially Shakespearean thea ter, definitely stems from the Ashland festival. In recent years he has worked with oth er actors who had played in Ashland. He has appeared in the same plays with or direct ed both Patrick (Mainer) Hines and William Ball. Of the last he said "I consider him one of the outstanding young men in the theatrical field in this country today. Mr. Cottrell plans to return to New York early in Sep tember. Sign Survey Conducted By Women New York -IUPII- The lack of uniformity among highway traffic signs in the United States borders on the chaotic, This is what a national study of hodge-podged traffic signs in 1,380 of the nation's cities showed recently. The survey was conducted by the Business and Profes sional Women's Foundation. in cooperation with the Na tional Federation of Business and Professional Women's clubs. The survey showed that laws controlling signs vary widely from state to state and cily to city, so the same de vice cannot mean the same thing or require the same ac tions in all places. The highest percentage of uniformity found in any state was 76 per cent of the signs surveyed. Half of the states had a conformity figure that was 65 per cent or less. All 50 states were included in the survey. As a benchmark-point of referencc-during the survey, investigators used the uni form Manual on Traffic Con trol Devices for Streets and Highways. The manual is considered the bible for signs and is pre pared under the guidance of the Institute of Traffic Engi neers, the American Associa Hon of State Highway Offi cials, and the National Com mittee on Uniform Traffic Laws and Ordinances. Home-made signs were found in use in one state. Only 51 per cent of the cities surveyed conformed to the national standards for red stOD signs. Old yellow stop signs still were In use in some cities, ' Women's Mrs. Roy Kelly Picnic Hostess Central Point - Mrs. Roy Kelly was hostess for a picnic meeting of Crater chapter, Grandmother Clubs of Amer ica, August 15.
