KIWANIS DENTAL CLINIC Equipment in the dental
clinic in the Jackson county courthouse is shown here. The
clinic is sponsored by the Medford Kiwanis club with county
dentists, the county court, county health and welfare de
partment and schools cooperating. Main source of financial
support is from the annual Kiwanis Kapers. The 1961 show,
"Off the Hook," will be presented March 8, 9, 10 and 11
at the Medford High school auditorium.
Rehearsals Start
For Kiwanis Show
Rehearsals for the 13th an
nual Medford Kiwanis Ka
pers got underway today.
The musical variety show
will be presented March 8
9, 10 and 11 at the Medford
High school auditorium under
Kiwanis club sponsorship, lis
title is "Off the Hook."
Carl Hawley, Los Angeles,
professional director for John
B. Rogers Productions, Fos
toria, Ohio, arrived yester
day. A casting party was held
at the high school last night
with Dr. Abner Clark, talent
chairman, in charge.
Openings Available
Most of the roles will be
taken by Kiwanians and their
wives. There are still open
ings in the cast, however, and
persons with specialty act,
musical or dancing talent in
terested in participating may
apply to Dr. Clark after 6:30
p.m. at the high school band
room.
The Kiwanis Kapers, while
providing fun and family en
tertainment for its audiences,
also has the more serious pur
pose of furnishing financial
support necessary for the
dental clinic which the serv
ice club maintains for under
rjrivileaed children.
Hundreds of needy chil
dren each year are given den
tal treatment which they
otherwise could not afford
The cases are referred to the
clinic by the county welfare
department, the county health
department and school doc
tors and nurses, rne agencies
make sure that a real need for
the treatment exists and that
the child's family is unable to
afford it.
First Established
The clinic was first estab
lished in 1957 and run on a
three months' trial basis with
funds supplied by the Kiwa
nis, Rotary and Lions clubs.
The Kiwanis club had origi
nally proposed the project,
and when experience showed
that the idea was feasible, the
Kiwanis club agreed to take
it on as one of its major
charitable efforts.
New, modern equipment
was purchased by the club
and installed in a room pro
vided by the conty court in
the basement of the court
house. Arrangements were
made with 42 Jackson coun
ty dentists to staff the clinic,
each dentist contributing a
few hours of his time each
month.
A full time assistant was
employed and the clinic
opened for "business" in
March, 1958. With funds sup
plied by the proceeds of the
Kiwanis Kapers together with
the time contributed by the
dentists, the clinic has operat
ed during school months since
that date, and next month
will celebrate its third birth
day. So successful has the proj
ect been that it has attracted
national attention and other
Kiwanis clubs have been en
couraged to start similar
undertakings.
In addition to the funds de
rived from the sale of tickets,
money is also supplied by the
business and professional men
of Medford in the form of
contributions and paid adver
tising in the Kapers program.
In this respect, also, the Jack
son county dentists demon
strated their support of the
project by being the only
group in which 100 per cent
made cash donations. An esti
mated $65,000 in time and
professional services has al
ready been contributed by the
dentists.
Each member of the Kiwa
nis club serves in three capa
cities to insure the success of
the Kapers. He helps in soli
citing advertising (including
his own donation as a busi
ness or professional man); he
helps sell tickets to the pub
lic; and he takes part in the
show itself.
Charles Dickens
Particular Sleeper
Chicago -njPU- Charles Dick
ens would sleep in a bed only
if the headboard were
pointed due north, and E. W.
Howe, the Kansas editor,
once remarKea: There is
only one thing people like
tnat is good for them: a good
nigm s sleep."
These and other oddities
concerning famous people
and beds were collected re
cently by the Northern Elec
trie Company, blanket manu
facturers; in compiling "A
Sleep Reader for Insomniacs.1
They also discovered:
The early Egyptians are
credited with putting beds on
legs in an attempt to get the
snakes to go under, not over,
them while they were asleeD.
The famous Bed of Ware
accommodated 68 sleepers. It
belonged to King Edward IV
of England who could fit 34
or more persons in the
trundle bed which slipped
unaerneath.
-Benjamin Franklin was of
the opinion that women need
ed more sleep than men. He
advocated "six hours for a
man, seven for a woman, and
eignt tor a tool.

Try and Stop Me
-By BENNETT CERF-
WHEN THE WEST was still very wild, a suspected horse
thief was arrested and tried. The jury, after lengthjr
deliberation, found him innocent. The judge stared incredu
lously at the foreman
HORSETHIEF
who delivered the ver
dict, then hollered, "You
fellows'll have to go back
into that jury room and
reconsider. The defend
ant was hanged two hours
ago."
A doting father reluc
tantly sent his one and only
son to camp, wrote to him
a few days later: "Tell me
honestly, Wilbur: are you
homesick?" The boy re
plied, "No, papa. I'm here
sick."
A disillusioned bookkeeper In a downtown factory says that
there's really only one thing that cornea to him who waits:
whiskers.
A small boy's idea of a balanced meal is a hamburger in
each hand.

Musician Declared
Guilty in Slaying
Mother, Daughter
Baltimore, Md.-IOT-A fed
eral grand jury today found
jazz guitarist Melvin D. Rees
Jr. guilty of the kidnap-slay-ings
of a Virginia housewife
and her daughter, members of
a massacred family of four.
The handsome, 32-ycar-old
entertainer faces a maximum
sentence of life imprisonment
under the federal Lindbergh
Kidnaping Lak. The all-male
jury did not specifically rec
ommend the death sentence,
thus sparing Rees execution
in the gas chamber.
The jury deliberated five
hours and 33 minutes on
whether Rees was guilty of
two of the four grisly murders
in one of 'ho nation's major
mysteries of 1950. It reached
a verdict half an hour after

Technically, he was charged
with the 1950 kidnap-slaying
of Mrs. Mildred Jackson, 27-ycar-old
Apple Grove, Va.,
housewife, and her 5'-year-old
daughter Susan Ann.
But the prosecution based
its case on the belief that the
handsome, dark-haired one
time Maryland University stu
dent also had killed the father
of the family, Carroll Jack
son, and 18-month-old daugh
ter Janet.
Bodies in Two States
The strangled and beaten
bodies of Mrs. Jackson and
the elder daughter were
found in a remote farm area
near Gambrills, Md. The
bodies of Jackson and Janet
were found on a sawdust
heap near Fredericksburg, Va.
Rees has been charged with
murder of the father and in
fant in Virginia, but the fed
eral government was the first
to prosecute.
The government charged
that after slaying Jackson and
Janet, Rees abducted the
mother and Susan Ann from
Virginia to Maryland.
Rees sat somber and im
passive as he heard jury fore
man Charles A. Gomer, a
steel company district sales
manager, declare him guilty
on two counts.
The convicted man remain
ed just as emotionless when
Gomer said the jury was not
recommending the death
penalty.
Divining rods, or forked
twigs, have been used in find
ing water supplies since the
earliest times.
