Report on Yoga
Scheduled For
NFA Meeting
A report on the book "Yoga
for Americans" by Indra Devi
will be given at the Tuesday,
November 1, meeting of the
Natural Foods Associates at
the Medford High school.
The meeting will be held
at 7:45 p.m. in Room 14.
The report will be given
by Mrs. Dee Grensky. Miss
Devi was tbe first occidental
woman to teach Yoga in
India, the country of its ori
gin. She currently directs the
Studio of Yoga in Hollywood,
Calif.
Also on the program will
be the second half of the re
cording of Earl Nightingale's
lecture "The Strangest
Secret."
At the last meeting 65 per
sons attended to hear Mrs,
Dorothy Roelf speak on
"Rose Hips and Vitamin C.
She explained that rose
hips are the fruit of the rose
which matures after the pet
als have fallen off, They are
considered the richest known
source of Vitamin C.
Mrs. Roelf recommended
that persons take more than
the 30 milligram daily mini
mum requirement of the vita
min, adding that indications
of a shortage are numerous
colds and frequent bruising,
She mentioned that the far
ther north of the equator one
lives, the greater the require
ment for Vitamin C. The rose
hips that grow in the north
ern regions contain a larger
quantity of Vitamin C pro
portionately, than do the more
southern species, she said.
The speaker explained that
rose hips may be purchased
locally in powder, liquid and
tablet forms. Vitamin C may
be obtained from green pep
pers, citrus fruits, potatoes,
and leafy vegetables.
Five recipes were distribut
ed to those attending for the
preparation and use of wild
rose hips which may be gath
ered in this region.
During the last half of the
program Earl Nightingale's
"The Strangest Secret" was
played.

The campaign is a won
derful opportunity to meet
new people and make new
friends," Mrs. Porter said. :
The whole family helps In
the Porter campaign, includ
ing their four children, Don,
Chris, Sam, and Anne. They
pass out pamphlets and bump
er strips.
However, in a previous
campaign, son Chris, then
seven, caused a considerable
stir when, In a burst of en
thusiasm, he went down the
street pasting bumper stickers
on cars without asking wheth
er the owners were Demo
crats or Republicans.
In Mr. Porter's first cam
paign, operating on a very
slim budget, Priscilla was a
one-woman promotion depart
ment writing press releases
and ads, answering mail and
making bumper strips by
hand in the evening hours.
Now she sometimes chauf
feurs her husband around the
district, helps with correspon
dence and in between tries to
spend as much time as pos
sible with the children.
"The children are very
proud of their daddy," Pris
cilla said,' ''although some of
them are old enough to under
stand and are hurt by some
of the mud thrown at him."
( Maintaining homes on op
posite sides of the continent
in Eugene and Washington,
D.C., Is a very expensive
proposition, she said, and also
very trying. What she wants
is always in the other home
and when moving back and
forth it seems that the wrong
articles are always packed.
The Porters have not found
a satisfactory system for the
children's education with the
moving to and from Eugene.
They have tried starting the
children in the Eugene schools
and moving them to Washing
ton when congress begins.
Another year Priscilla stayed
in Washington with the chil
dren while her husband re
turned to Oregon. Currently
the younger children are In
school In Eugene but the old
est, Don, Is staying with
friends in Washington while
in his junior year In high
school.
The children would much
rather live in Oregon, Mrs.
Porter said, but they are able
to take advantage of oppor
tunities In Washington that
are available nowhere else.
She concluded that life In
Washington, except for the
muggy weather, is much like
living anywhere else. She is
a den mother for Cub Scouts
and a member of the PTA.

TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, ORE.
Mrs. Edwin H. Durno, wife of the Medford physician
surgeon and Republican slate senator who is campaigning
for election as congressman from the fourth district of Ore
gon, posed for this picture during a party rally held in Med
ford October 22. Mrs. Durno has been called the "most faith
ful campaign trail partner on lhe Oregon political scene."
Mrs. Edwin Durno Declared
'Faithful Campaign Partner7
Perhaps the most faithful
"campaign trail partner" on
the Oregon political scene is
Mrs. Edwin R. Durno, Med
ford, who recently made her
eighth tour of the fourth con
gressional district. Wife of
the Republican state senator
who launched his congres
sional campaign last 'March,
she accompanies her candidate-husband
on his intensive
swings through the seven
counties of the district, keep
ing pace with a rigorous
schedule of speeches and per
sonal appearances.
"We take off on the sta
tion wagon with our suitcases
-and my coffeepot-and travel
for over three weeks at a
time," said the energetic,
gregarious Evelyn Durno, who
counts the opportunity to
meet , "so many interesting
people" the best part of her
campaign activities. En route,
the Medford housewife serves
as chauffeur and unofficial
secretary, in addition to at
tending all political engage
ments. Though life has drastically
changed, Mrs. Durno points
out that her role as assistant

to Dr. Durno is nothing new.
A registered nurse, she was
literally at his side for 30
years as an anesthetist for 98
per cent of his surgical cases.
After his election to the state
senate, she continued to
share his interests by attend
ing the legislative sessions
regularly. In fact, a multiple
anniversary in the winter of
1959 summed up their indus
trious life together as they
celebrated 30 years of marri
age, 30 years of medicine,
and Sen. Durno's 60th birthday-all
during Oregon's cen
tennial year.
Of more imminent interest
is the rapidly, approaching
date of November 8,, which
marks the date of Mrs. Durno's
birthday and the date of the
national election, a coinci
dence which could be signifi
