(UPI) Four Opening Nights Set at Ashland Theater Ashland-Unlike most thea- ters, the Oregon Shakcspear ' ean Festival in Ashland pre ! sents its audiences with four ' consecutive opening nights. ! The "unique" seems to be ' the rule rather than the ex ception this year as the Fes tival company prepares for the July 21 opening of "Com edy of Errors." Following this premiere, i there will be openings of "Henry IV, Part 2," "As You Like It," and "Coriolanus" on the next three evenings. The "magic" of the stage is no simple task. Weeks of preparation go into each of the four Festival productions, i. The Festival itself is a year i round "labor of love" for 1 many of the organization's 1 board members, directors, manager and producing direc ' tor. ' Production Starts I Production chores started Jast June 7, when the com pany formed, and will not cease until the final set is disassembled on the evening of Sept. 2. Each of the plays has its own prop, staging and cos tume requirements. This is where the talents of many members of the Festival Tech nical staff come into full view. The technical depart ment, under the direction of Gene Chesley, will fabricate anything from a shield 'to a kingly throne or a bucket within the six-week prepara tion period. Carpenters, painters, and designers work as closely as possible to their plans, in or der that the full flavor and impact of the production might be experienced by the audiences. Other Problemi Varied problems also face the costuming department. Under the direction of Marie Chesley, the costumers are re sponsible for theatrical por trayal of the attire of each of the characters in all four pro ductions. In addition to add ing to the color of the pro duction, costumes help create the proper mood as interpret ed by the play's director. When the trumpets herald the opening of the 22nd sea son of the Oregon Shakespear ean Festival July 21, all will be in readiness for 44 evenings of Elizabethan comedy, trag edy, and chronicle history drama. Algeria May Hold Referendum in Peace Algiers, Algeria - (OPIl - The flames of rebellion were flick ering out all over Algeria to day giving promise that this great North African land will be able to hold its independ ence referendum in peace Sunday.

Matthews, founder coordinator of the camp. It represents an all-time high, and registration will continue through July 2. Guest conductor for the camp which lasts through July 13, is Clarence Sawhill, well-known band authority and director of bands at the University of California at Los Angeles. Along with the regular re hearsals and concerts, which will be held out-of-doors whenever possible, Matthews pointed out that an organized recreational program includ ing sports, attendance at the world-famed Oregon Shake spearean Festival, and trips to near-by points of interest are available. Featured Oulingi One of the featured outings will be an overnight pack trip into the cool high country, led by Dr. Elmo N. Stevenson, college president. Music opportunities are de signed for three levels of in struction: high school divi sion, featuring senior band, ensembles, private lessons, concerts and recitals, basic musicianship, music apprecia tion, and dance band; the junior division, which in addi tion to the activities listed above, has been formed into a junior band; and the college and graduate students divi sion, for. which both under graduate and graduate college credit may be received.

Additional information con cerning Siskiyou Band Camp registration may be obtained from Matthews, or Dr. Her bert Cecil, camp secretary, at the college. Minimum Police Standards Urged Salem-IUPII-Minimum stand ards for police have got to be set because of what ap pears to be a "losing battle with crime," the Oregon Dis trict Attorneys' Institute was told here Thursday. H. A. Ellsworth, Eugene po lice chief, said the existence of such a circumstance in some areas makes upgrading of police standards crucial. Ellsworth, chairman of the governor's advisory board on police standards, said it is a fact that in some parts of Ore gon police get on the payroll with "little or no training." The board, authorized by the 1961 legislature, includes members at all levels of law enforcement.
