MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. ORE. THURSDAY, MARCH 23, 1961 A 3 JoeDiMaggio, Marilyn 'Friends' ' Redington Beach, Fla.-IUPD-"We're. friends," said Joe Di Maggio. "We're friends," echoed Marilyn Monroe in her soft sigh. But the under standing glances between the shapely movie actress and the former New York Yankee baseball star revived speculation to day that the two may be close to another marriage. The "friends," who are sharing a beach cabana and have near by hotel rooms at this Gulf Coast report, declined to elaborate. It was enough to make Di Maggio temporarily abandon baseball. Until Miss Monroe flew to Florida, DiMaggio had been assisting at the Yankees spring training camp in near by St. Petersburg. "I came down here for some rest, some sun and to visu joe, Miss Monroe ex plained. They were husband and wife in 1954. MAY NAME ENVOY Washington - IUPI) - Inform ed sources reported today President Kennedy soon will appoint Joseph C.

Escorted Tour Recommended for First-Time Foreign Traveler New York - (UPD - First-time foreign travelers generally are advised to go via a tour, rather than independently, and thus avoid many of the pitfalls that can quickly sour a long anticipated trip. Down at the particular level of advice, veteran traveler and tour operator Henry E. Temchine is more specific on why an escorted tour is more to the advantage of the novice traveler. "By all means I advise the first-timer to go on an escorted tour," he said. "It gives the traveler the climate and at mosphere of the countries he visits, and when he goes back on another visit, he's not ven turing into the unknown un assisted." The escorted tour - as op posed to an independent tour in which local representatives of the agent assist a traveler, but don't stay with him or his group all the time - has an experienced guide and jack-of-all-arrangements with it at all times to take care of the de tails of transport, accommo dations and sight-seeing. Temchine summed up the details left to the traveler on an escorted tour like this: "All the person has to do is pack and unpack his suitcase." Two Considerations Temchine, who is manager of the tour department of the House of Travel, Inc., New York, said there are two prime considerations when weighing Medford Man Attends OSU Course Corvallis - G. W. Plumb of the Medford Water commis sion completed a special three day water works operators short school Wednesday at Oregon State University. The school is offered each year on campus as a service to cities, water districts, and water utility companies. Purposes are to promote efficient and economical oper ation of water supply systems and to reduce hazards to pub lic h e a 1 1 h. Sponsors with OSU's school of engineering are the state board of health, league of Oregon cities, and the Pacific Northwest section of the American Waterworks association. This year's course attracted a record enrollment of 127. Classes cover practical aspects of water supply operation, maintenance, and administra tion; water quality standards; water analysis; water borne diseases, and disinfection of mains, wells and reservoirs. whether you should go on an escorted tour or travel inde pendently - budget and the time element. , It's' his feeling that in the escorted tour "there's rational, logical utilization of time," an important element for a per son whose vacation time is limited. In short, the traveler gets to see the most at an economy of time and doesn't lose valuable time making ar rangements on the scene. Where time and finances are no object, on the other hand, an independent tour could be the answer to a trav eler's objectives, he said. As to budget, an economy class tour can fulfill travel dreams as readily as a deluxe "grand tour." "The man who travels in an economy - type tour sees as much of the monuments and scenic highlights as a man who travels on a high priced tour," Temchine said. The difference between economy and deluxe classes usually is reflected in means of trans port, hotel accommodations and meals. Just as for the person who has a time limitation. Tem chine feels an escorted tour can be more economical than independent travel to the budget minded. Among other things, you start out on an A SEARS -ffifc" DIAMOND JUBILEE YEAR V K i r Ci escorted tour knowing just how much your plane or ship fare, ground transportation, hotels, meals and admissions are going to cost - the stated price of the tour. The tour expert also point ed out some other fringe bene fits for those who take budget-priced escorted tours, such as traveling with others of like circumstances. And there are "special In terest" tours which put the traveler in the company of people with similar back grounds, hobbies and inter ests. Garden Tours There are garden tours, which take flower and plant lovers lo the famed gardens of Europe; tours which cover the major musical festivals; tours which take the devout to the most famous religious shrines, and tours for stu dents, architects and archae ological addicts, among other special interest groups. Tour operators, such as Temchine's organization, might offer 25 to 30 different tours during a season to fill various demands and inter ests. Obviously, a middle-aged person setting out to pick a tour shouldn't consider one tailored for students, but what are some of the other guides lenichine recommends for a person considering an escort ed tour? Here are some basic ones: -Try to select the packaged tour from a reputable agent in your city who has been in the market for a number of years. He will have complete and up-to-date information. -Avoid "assembly lines" types of arrangements in which you can find yourself "just one of the flock." -Listen to the recommenda tions of friends and relatives who have traveled in making your selection. -Weigh your budget as to what type of tour you can af ford. There are $2,000-and-up tours of Europe, but there also are others in the $750 bracket, including transportation. -Consider your available time. Do you want to see just a few selected countries, or do you want to hit all the highlights of Europe in the available time? Generally, es corted tours to faraway places can take from four weeks up. An independent tour, rather than an escorted one, might be the answer for the person with only two weeks or so. Weigh these considerations in relation to your special in-, terest, and you should come up with a decision as to whether an escorted tour or independent travel is the best way for you to go. mm0y ORNAMENTAL AND SHADE TREES Spectacular!

We registered for our lour- ng group, and the first stop covered two different sub j e c t s t h e preparation of slides for microscopes and the study of the life cycle o flies and the effects of crossbreed- ng. Each lecture was four minutes long. We saw films and heard a lecture on different animal life in the earth, following which we went to another lecture on mathematics, pertaining most ly to the base two system. Fol lowing the lecture we visited the aquariums where we ob served sea life and anemones, and later attended an exhibit on micro-waves and the Van DcGraaf generator. We also saw an exhibit on radio astro nomy. We saw how radio wiivnt pan an thrnneh riiffpr. I ent materials and how mate rials will reflect radio waves.
