''After a short intermission the choir did several lighter numbers and finished the scheduled program with the "Polo vetzian Dances and Chorus", by Borodin. This number requires an 'orchestra to really give it the exciting flavor that Is necessary; but the accompanist, David Park er, did a mualclanly; Job with the difficult score, j .'The. Symphonic" choir is chorus of college students and young adults from Salt Lake City. They rehearse one even ing a week.' and learn a com plete choral, program for each season. Ail. members are se lected by the dlrectpr on the basis of their musicianship, and the openings that appear in the aroUD from year to year.. This spring the choir is taking a trip in me norm west that' will take them away from their 'homes, for ten days. ..' Like many civic choruses of " volunteer' - musicians, the lack: of -'sufficient, rehearsal time was apparent - at times where the tone quality of cer tain sections suffered, and where the group had not had time to memorize numbers so that there was a feeling of real assurance In the chorus. ! Taken as a whole,! the pro gram was. enjoyanie, ana a credit to the director, Armont Wiliardsen.

' ' - j "' . ; ; Diet Poor " '.. ,', .. i Teen-age girls, tomorrow's mothers, are short; changing themselves' and' their future children with poorly selected diets. Six out of ten teenage girls, have diets that are less than-,75 per cent of recom mended dietary standards, says Ruth Kllppstetn, O S C extension nutritionist. What these girls and their parents don't: realize Is that although they may ' have completed their physical growth, they still must "stockpile" nutri ents for years ahead. "Good nutrition Is of num ber one Importance when you consider that one out of four mothers are having their first baby before they are twenty," say a ; Mrs. Klippsteln. Despite much discussed pros and cons, youthful marriages are Increasing in Oregon. Over half of Oregon's brides, married for the first time, are between 15 and 10 years of age. Although early mar riages are not . encouraged, "we .have to face reality and help these youngsters make a successful marriage," points out Mrs. Roberta Frasler, OSC, extension family life specialist. Housewives Aided' ' Young marrieds have asked for basics in keeping house, managing a small paycheck, and Just learning to commu nicate with one another. Many of ,them, extension sexs find, . did not grow up in homes where . opportunities were available to learn house keeping skills. : One of the most popular programs' offered is a short course in developing a better managed happier, home. In the past eleven months about 800t homemakers have .en rolled in a series of five man agement I classes, organized and . carried - out by Bernlce Strawn, home- management and equipment specialist, and county extension, agents. Their response has been an overwhelming ."we want more." Many of these' young brides were newcomers to ex tension programs. . They've felt so good about them that they've made it a point to share .the... information witn others. In Linn county young mothers are still getting to gether on their own to con tinue this study of .'manage-mont.-V-Vf-i -.' i'-f'M'f a .'.'W.e've. tried: to-, erase the image of perfection and effi ciency ' that" home -manage ment has often been stuck wlthj",,. says -JMiss. iStrawn. "What," we. try to help- these Homemakers see is. that man agement is.: getting i a Job whipped withv the- - least amount of work." ' v Three Delegates Attend Sessions ; Oregon AAUW ..Mrs. Gordon S.
