MARCH 7, Orchestra and Soloist Praised by Reviewer By WALTER JACK ARRON Ashland-Those who missed Sunday's Southern Oregon Little Symphony orchestra program, with Herbert Cecil conducting - shouldn't have. And if anyone is maintaining a patronizing condescending attitude toward the Little Symphony, he ought to stop, we nave an orchestra now that sounds like an orchestra is professionally conducted, and - just because the con duclor and the members want to - provides (it's free) excel lent musical entertainment Here is what I liked about Sunday's program. "Fugue in G Minor," Bach Caillict. The program started on time (not all of the near capacity audience did) and Lindbergh Book To Be Reviewed Mrs. Clarence Miller will review the book "Gift From The Sea" by Anne Morrow Lindbergh for Women's Fel lowship of the Congregational Church Thursday, March 9. Discussion of the book by the group will also be part of the program planned by Mrs. E. H. Dusenhury, spiritual life chairman of the fellowship. Devotions will be given by Mrs. M. M. Snider, The fellowship meets at noon for a sack lunch and des sert will be served by the hostesses, Mrs. Carl Elhart and Mrs. Judd Greenman. Mrs. Don Bohnert, presi dent, announces the group has been invited to attend a meeting of the Plymouth guild of Ashland Congrega tional church March 16 at 1:30 p.m. Miss Ethel Reid, a retired teacher, will show pic tures and discuss her foreign travels. Nursery care will be pro vided for both meetings. Piano Students Present Recital Piano students of Mrs. Cecilia Fichtner were present ed in a recital at the home of Mrs. Frank Mee, 1265 Cor ona avenue. Both piano and organ numbers were played. Participating wore: Joyce Casterllne, Marsha Sven sen, Kathy Dickey, Julie Castcrline, Kirk Simmons, Karen Svcnsen, Teresa Allen, Jim Casterllne, Annette Spaur, Judy Johnson, Jeffrey Casterllne, Judy Mee, John Castcrline and Margaret Gro chocki. Mrs. Frank Mee was at the organ and Mrs. Nor man Evensen played an orig inal "boogie" arrangement of a folk song. . Refreshments were served by Mrs. Mee, Mrs. E. L. Sim mons and Mrs. Fichtner. BRUCE V scrubbing ! minum i remover! 1961 Women's News with full tonality. The coun ter-point was executed neat ly, the chords were full and rich. "Symphony No. 94 in G Major," Haydn:' The violins showed polish In the opening adagio movement and the link ing passages by the wood winds were sure and well modulated. The familiar an dante was pleasingly "Haydnesque." There was crisp vigor without stridence and the lyrical passages were rendered with fine unanimity, "Suit in A Minor," Tele- man, with Karlin Rhees, flut ist: From the beginning sus tained passages it was obvious that Mrs. Rhees is a highly accomplished performer. The tone was beautifully full and the technique deceptively ef fortless. And always the solo ist respected the conductor and orchestra. This rapport showed especially well in the Polonaise.' Here there was a mutual capitalization on all the rhythmical opportunities. And throughout, the harpsi chord was in perfect concord with the soloist flute. Night Soliloquy," Kennan: Perhaps "Night Soliloquy" stole the show. The conductor, orchestra and soloist deserve praise for their skillfully ex ecuted shift in idiom, and, again, for their rapport-much to the benefit of the audience. There was a medieval devil called Tittivillus who collect ed all the high notes of vain tenors who sang to their own glory. If he is still around scouting ostentatious soloists, he got nothing from Mrs. Rhees. The richness of the low register tones and the op portunities of the arpeggios were dedicated strictly to the orchestra and the audience an ingratiating performance. And, again, deceptively sim ple technique. Impressive also was the orchestra's handling of the neodissonant back ground. Slavonic Dance No. 8," Dvorak: The little Symphony now has over forty players. It is capable of a full resonant tone and displayed itself to good advantage in this full bodied favorite-evidence also of the carefully bp anced pro gram. Bacchanale ' from bam- son and Delilah," Sain-Saens: Here, adroitly executed, the famous oboe passage led into a spirited display of the whole orchestra, castenets and all. Again, there was vigorous full tonality, well sustained and well controlled. With so much recorded music available I think we tend to forget what happens between live performers and live audience. Sir Donald Tovcy has said: "The first step towards understanding the in tegrity of art is to recognize that it consists in the integrity of each individual work of art." I would exlend tills to performances. What impress ed me most about Sunday's concert was the evidence of the happiest kind of musical integrity at work. If this review seems glow ing, it is in appreciation to Dr. Cecil, the members of the orchestra, and such soloists as Mrs. Rhees for what they are attempting, and succeed ing with, for our valley, Auxiliary To Meet At Weisel Home The Woman's auxiliary to the Jackson Counly Medical society will moot Wednesday, March 8, at 7:30 p.m. at the home of Mrs. John Weisel, 208 Bradford way.

MEDFORD UN In Time Say Leaders So grave is the situation facing' the United Nations that unless those who believe in it rally to its support, it may "be murdered in the dark" in the coming months. This was the thought voiced by a panel of UN officials and other widely known persons who spoke over a closed cir cuit television program last week arranged by Columbia Broadcasting system and the American Association for the United Nations and heard about 100 communities of the nation, ine program was brought to Medford through the facilities of Station KBES TV and the audience was as sembled through the Medford chapter, Oregon United Na tions association, 1 Purpose of the special tele cast was to provide back ground material for the com ing session of the United Na tions General Assembly wnich opens today. Richard C Hottelet, CBS commentator, moderated the panel discus sion and said "the last eight months have been tumultous ones, and the crises will con tinue. The basic isues to come before the Assembly will be disarmament and the Congo situation. The United Nations moves in unchartered ground, u must improvise on grave problems concerning the con flicts and ambitions of the world's countries. It must show vitality, and not weak ness. The UN must live and grow stronger." Stevenson Speaks Speakers were Adlai Stev enson, United States ambassa dor to the United Nations, Al bert F. Bender of the UN budget staff; Brig. Gen. Riki, military advisor to Secre tary General Dag Hammarsk- jold; Paul Hoffman, hea dof the UN special fund commit tee; George Ivan Smith, Aus tralian and member of the public information staff; Mrs. Franklin D. Rossevelt and Clark Eichelberger, executive secretary of the Association for the United Nations. "Maintenance of an effec tive United Rations is a prime concern of the United States," said Ambassador Stevenson. "because it leads and shapes opinion. We are in a period of severe testing. We must see the UN through these tests. If there are setbacks, Americans must weigh them against UN accomplishments, and not be come discouraged. The UN is the child of Western ideas and ideals, it is based on a belief in the dignity and worth of the human person. "The belief that parliamen tary procedures must be used to solve the world's problems is now universal even the Communists pay attention to this idea. All must realize that a large scale war is impossi ble." Ambassador Stevenson pointed out that the United States is no longer undisputed leader of the United Nations, added that there are now 20 African countries represented and pointed out that there are nine votes in the Commu nist bloc. "We must remember that the United States' de sires will not always prevail," he said. He spoke of the "fanati cism" of some in the Congo, but pointed out that the ma jority of the African states back the UN. In addition to the problems which the Congo situation bring to the General Assem bly,, Ambassador Stevenson said that disarmament and the financing of the UN must also be considered by this assem bly. Picture Not Bright "The picture is not bright, we are faced with rough sail ing, but we must not be downhearted," Ambass a d o r Stevenson said. "The small na tions look to the UN for pro tection from the great powers. The majority vote is in their MATERNITY FASHIONS LINGERIE DRESSES FOUNDATIONS - TOPS SKIRTS PEDAL PUSHERS CAPRI PANTS U laPolntt't F-L-E-X-l-l-L-E Chre Account wgn i t MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, of Extreme Crisis in Special Program hands." "All the world must unite in a great effort for peace," Mrs. Roosevelt declared in the beginning of her talk. She said the UN must grow in membership, and declared that new members "would bring new ideas and thoughts." "We are learning more about the rest of the world," Mrs. Roosevelt reminded her listeners. "Many people are struggling to form new gov ernments, just as the United States did years ago. Through the UN we have an opportun ity to promote the idea of hu man rights and freedoms." Mrs. Roosevelt warned that the United States, because it is a democracy, is watched closely by the people of these new nations struggling for in dependence. "New members in the UN watch us closely to see how we behave," she said. "We should tell the truth. We should tell them that our de mocracy is not perfect, but that we are striving to im prove our human rights and freedoms and that we will work so all the world may en joy these rights. "We of the United States must recognize the challenges of this time. It is a time of new ideas, new situations, new problems, new solutions. It can be an exciting adven ture. We must fight the battle of public opinion in the Unit ed States. We must give the secretariat the heart to go on. The United Nations must not be murdered in the dark." Time of Crisis That this is a time of crisis was repeated by Mr. Smith of the UN public information service, who said local chap ters of UN must "tell the story on the local level." Mr. Smith stressed that there must be a deeper understand ing of economic development in the world and added that there is a growing "interna tional concept and sense of morality." General Riki, who has been in the Congo for first-hand observations, said the UN forces are a dedicated group and that the discipline is good. Explaining some of the mili tary , problems, the general stated that the great distances in Africa make communica tions difficult, that travel is slow and radio transmission often poor. Some idea of the magnitude of the task of aiding the un derdeveloped countries of the world was given by Mr. Hoff man. "Two-thirds of the peo ple of the world are under nourished, illiterate and in ill health," Mr. Hoffman declar ed. "Two billion people are in active revolt," he stressed. The man who is endeavoring to raise funds to help the un derprivileged through the United Nations said "For long time these people knew nothing better. Now they are determined to have better liv ing conditions. This is prob ably the most pervasive hu man revolution in history." Mr. Hoffman said there must be a more effective use of resources in the underde veloped countries. "They have many resources," he declared. "The problem is to determine these resources and to train people to use them. We must have more knowledge of the minerals, the rivers and the soil. "Africa has vast, untapped resources," said Mr. Hoffman. "Many dams should be built to provide irrigation and wa ter power. In Ethiopia, there is need for river control. The soil is very fertile, and a Brit ish syndicate is being organ ized to provide capital for development of that country. I could give 50 more examples of resources in Africa. The task is appalling. Two-thirds of the people in Africa cannot read or write, less than five ORE. per cent have had secondary education and there are only about 17 university graduates in the entire Congo. They need schools of all sorts. "The United Nations knows these people can be trained. In this decade, 15 or 20 coun tries can make considerable progress; by the year 2,000 we could be well on the way to conquering poverty and ill health." , Financial Problems The financial problems of the UN are also serious, ac cording to Mr. Bender - so serious that he declared "The UN could break up." Mr. Ben der said that "peace and se curity are expensive." He pointed out that some govern ments, namely those in the Soviet bloc, are refusing to pay their UNEF assessments and added that the UN is "eight million dollars in the red." The budget expert of the UN said that the Congo trou ble may cost as much as $135 million, and that the deficit may be as much as $120 mil lion by the end, of 1961. Vari ous ideas are being explored, he said, with countries being asked to make voluntary con tributions, or to pay their as sessments in advance. The United States assessment this year may be as much as $65 million, according to Mr. Ben der. An effort will be made to change the Soviet attitude, the budget expert said and a special peace and security fund is being considered. "We must either discard the UN, be prepared to give in to Soviet demands, or be prepared to pay for the effort for peace," he declared. The 26 persons who saw the closed circuit telecast rep resented 11 groups from eight towns, and the press. Some were students who have the United Nations as a debate topic this year, some were Medford UN chapter officials and some were persons who will form a speakers' bureau to discuss the UN with valley organizations.
