Saturday noon the Kennedys gave a luncheon for President Lopes Mateos and his wile at which the First Lady gave a short talk in Spanish. (UPI) Kennedys Give Luncheon; First Lady Charms Guests By T. M. FAGRELL United Press International Mexico City - IUP1I - Mr?. John Kennedy, spectacular in shimmering pink, shyly made a speech in Spanish Saturday that recalled she had honey mooned in Mexico. She brought down the house. A little nervous, and con scious of the fact that she was facing not only a luncheon but also a vast television au dience, the first lady deliver ed a brief address in excellent Spanish. Flanked by her husband and Mexican President Adolfo Lopez Matcoa, she stood in her two-piece dress of flamin go pink silk linen with a matching hat with large, turn ed up brim. She rubbed her chin a second and then spoke. Occasionally she rubbed her hands, as thouRh nervous. My husband and 1 are very glad to come back to Mexico," she said. "This is my third trip to Mexico. I like to remember that my last trip was my honeymoon." She praised Mexico for "the underlying values of your cul ture, the profound faith In man's dignity - they have all been expressed In your art and literature over the cen turies." At the conclusion, persons attending the luncheon burst Into loud applause. Mrs. Ken nedy sat down, but had to get up again to acknowledge an other outburst. S!ie had captivated Paris with, a speech in French, Now she had done the same in Mexico. The President Jokingly In troduced her as the one who would speak In Spanish. His own Spanish Is limited to such phrases as "Viva Mexico," he said. He drew a laugh when he said that Bfler some "pro test," It was decided that Mrs. Kennedy wo jld speak in Mex ico's tongue. He stnred admiringly at her, a smile on his lips, as she spoke.' President Lopez Mateos. also standing, bent close to her, hanging onto every word. In his own speech later, Lo pez Mateos referred to her words and said she hud "charmed us . . . the words of Mrs. Kennedy made us aware of the comprehending attitude of American women." The luncheon which she and the President gave at a downtown hotel for President and Mrs. Lopez Mateos, was the high point of a strenuous 13-hour day for Mrs. Ken nedy. She began it by visit ing the National Institute (or the Protection ot Children, where she distributed gills and talked with the children. Camp Fire Girls Eagle Point Mrs. Lee Roy Draper took the Eagle Point Camp Fire Girls to visit the women at the Pearl Watson home for the Elderly at Central Point Tues day. The girls presented t h c women a bouquet of cut flow ers and sang four songs for them. The girls were Sandra Myers, Margy Martin, Mary Stinger, Terry Ames, Connie Conrad and Judy Draper. Two groups of the Camp Fire girls giive a tea for their mothers last week. They were the O-Ki Ci Ya Ti and the Ko- Da-CINa. The mothers Joined them in playing games and the girls served cookies and lemonade. Since the Fourth of July is exclusively a hollda; for the United States, food for an In dependence day celebration should not be exotic, but typ ically American. Hamburger and country coleslaw are two such dishes. To give the hamburger added dash, cook the patties with barbecue sauce combined in to the meat mixture, and a dash of Accent, the ingredient which has no flavor of its own but will bring out the full beef f 1 . v o r . The barbecue sauce could contain mustard, vinegar and unsulphurcd mo lasses. The molasses, which idds a mellow note, is partic ularly fitting to the Fourth of July meal since this product has graced American tables since the days of the first col onists. For the barbecued burgers use 1 pound ground beef, 1 teaspoon Accent, 3t teaspoon salt, ' i teaspoon pepper, 1 ta blespoon un.sulphured molas ses, 1 tablespoon prepared mustard, 1 teaspoon vinegar. Break up meat with fork In mixing bowl; sprinkle with Accent, salt and pepper. Toss gently with fork to distribute ingredients. Combine molas ses, mustard and vinegar; combine with meat mixture. Form into four patties. Pan- broil, broil or grill to desired doneness. Serves four. For the Country Coleslaw use ?'fi cup evaporated milk, '2 cup salad oil, 3 tablespoons lemon or lime Juice, Vi tea spoon salt, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon dry mustard. 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce. "! quarts shredded cab bage, 1 cup sliced radishes, 1 carrot, grated, 1 green pep per, finely sliced, 1 small onion, minced. Combine evaporated milk and salad oil in mixing bowl; beat until blended. Add lem on Juice, beat until smooth. Beat in salt, sugar, dry mus tard and Worcestershire sauce; toss with cabbage, ra dishes, carrot, green pepper and onion. Eight servings. Baked beans would make a tasty addition to the meal. and Toll House cookies might he used for dessert. These favorite American cookies have an Interesting history. Some years ago the proprie tress of the Toll House inn in Whitman. Mass., added tiny chunks of semi-sweet choco late bar to drop cookie dough. The chocolate didn't melt in the baking, but remained as luscious little nugget, within Ihe cookies. Today's Toll House cookies are made with semi-sweet chocolate morsels especially prepared for the purpose, but they still remain a variation on the colonial cookies, and form a fitting finale to patriotic celebration. . 4 ' ,' J r :'f. i t K f-JZl Among lh members and guests who attended the annual picnic of Medford League of Women Voters were (left to right) Mrs. Robert Minear.

Lee, Medford, were guest speakers for Wom en of Unity's monthly meet ing held Friday in the Unity church. Mrs. Nye spoke on "The Uniled States and World Trade." She stated that wom en as Investors and consumers control the purse strings In tl;is country. Women are the principal buyers of goods and therelore need to understand the importance ot trade in every day lives. With the United States and the Euro pean common market asso ciated together in some way, the combination would con trol B7 per cent of the world's trade, she staled. Mrs. Nye closed her talk with a quote from President Kennedy: 'This is no time for timid answers or tired solutions. We must look to new ways in trade philosophies. Are we lis tening to the Tick of the Times,' or the 'Voice of the Centuries".''' Mrs. I.er opened her talk by giving a history of parlia mentary procedure, saying a body of rules has been in existence (or many genera tions, and nSiong Ihe Knglish speaking peoples it is known by the name of "Parliamen tary Law." or the "Law of the Knglish Parliament."

But you re itcning for a vacation that's spicy and nice-and full of some thing besides sand, sun and insects? Why not really see America? Did you know that, depend ing on how willing you are to travel, you can tote the family to places within these United States where the brood can dig for diamonds or pet a tame rhino? But that's not all-for you who must stay within Uncle Sam's boundaries. Without getting a passp&i', you also can: -See thoroughbreds being trained, ride in an army "duck," test-drive a new car, be the engineer of a model railroad, live In a lumberjack camp or - poke through the fabled cave where Tom and Becky of Mark Twain's vin tage - were lost. In that same cave two miles southeast of Hannibal, Mo.. Injun Joe met his death. That makes il more fascinat ing for the youngsters! Of course, it's easiest to get to this tremendous cave if you live in the midwest and Shady Cove, and Mrs. D. E. Millard. Eagle Point, enter tained the group with piano and organ ducts.

Medford south - for you've got to go all the way to Missouri. But if you can afford the time to go to Missouri, you can treat the youngsters to the storied setting of Huck Finn's an tics. Diamond Hunting Routes for diamond hunt ing and the way to petting tame rhinos are outlined in "wonderful places to take children in the Midwest and South" - one of three "Won derful Places to T.'.ke Chil dren" books published by Channel Press in cooperation with the National Recreation Association. The books for tourists who must vacation sans pass port - but with children include one for great places to take youngsters in the west - and also one detailing wonderful places for childish touring in the Northeast and Middle Atlantic states. The books, by Jane; and Theodore Norman, are for children who can read - and help plot the family's vaca tion. In case the children can't read, parents will have no trouble following the simple directions showing the way to places and events the off spring will enjoy. t The authors, for' example, serve the following smorgas bord of appetizers for trips confined to the northeast and Middle Atlantic states: -Chances for the tourists to drive a huge steam loco motive, spend a day with park rangers, watch Eskimo sled dogs in action, hunt in the world's richest mineral dump, and play tic-tactoe with a thinking machine! In the West, the authors show the way to the follow ing vacation highlights des tined to entertain and educate the children: -Seeing Indian apartment houses a thousand years old; panning for gold: seeing 2, 500 whales parade; watching a dinosaur being assemhled: riding a burro; and visiting ghost towns. The books, detailing all places exciting to youngsters, follow the dictate of those travel experts who suggest: "See America First!" They are most serious about good govenment, but the gals who belong to the League of Women Voters have their lighter moments, too. Every summer they have a picnic honoring new members and last Wednesday the group drove out to the John Days' hilltop house above Gold Rey dam. Checking back, we decided that this was about the fourth time Mary Day has been hostess for the picnic the big house easily takes care of the So or 60 members and guests and Mrs. Day, an accomplished hostess, encourages every one to relax and have fun. Mary was wearing a pink dress which had an attachment, with round-the-waist ties, which doubled as an apron or a decoration for the bodice. The "apron" has loops in each corner and when these are fasten ed to buttons at '.he neckline, the apron does a disappearing act. Wednesday there was a tempting array of salads, sand wiches and other picnic fare, the program was a quickie with a comedy skit to indoctrinate the newcomers pain lessly and by 2 o'clock the women were free for cards, swimming, sunning, strolling or just sitting and talking. There's nothing better for putting across a point than humor. For the skit Wednesday several league members, some in strange costumes, interpreted some of the pitfalls for the intelligent citizen and voter. Miss Clara Hinze of Rogue Valley Manor strolled around making throwing mo tions she was "hurling invective." Marge Boyer carried "stumbling blocks," and Evelyn Qusterhout, wearing a suit of John Day's gym clothes, went through gyrations to show that a good voter must "wrestle with his conscience." Alice Rutter, garbed in what was meant to be a skin diving outfit, was "keeping her head above water" and Amalia Herbert, dressed in a man's business suit was "leaning over back wards in an effort to please everyone." This reporter laugh ed the loudest at Mrs. F. Brennesholtz who was cutting an imaginery something with a pair of scissors. She, it was explained, was an editor cutting out the best part of the news. (We've often been accused of cutting out the most interesting part of contributed stories.) One of the new members at the tea was Mrs. Elsie Bel'.e McDaniel, who came to Medford last summer to live at Rogue Valley manor, and who had belonged to the League in her home city of St. Louis, Mo. Mrs. McDaniel and Mrs. Phil Holman, who lived in St. Louis as a young girl, enjoyed talking about changes in the city in recent years. Later Mrs. Holman, Mrs. Alvin Reiss, Mrs. William Downing and Potpourri strolled around the gardens of the Day home. The view from the hilltop is superb close at hand are the winding Rogue river and pastures filled with grazing cattle, further away Medford can be seen and the lower hills lead the eye upward to the Siskiyous and in the far distance are the snow-capped peaks. Mrs. Downing, also a newcomer to the valley, remarked that while the countrysrJe and mountair.3 in southern Ore gon are similar to those of certain parts of California, some how there seems to be a difference. She puzzled aloud about this "California often resembles the Hiviera," she said, "but Oregon is different more like parts of Switzerlund, per haps. There is a diffrrrnc in atmoE,-;;ere here. I think I know what it is Oregon is peaceful." League members are resourceful in many ways. When Mrs. Gean Neece of Gold Hill went out to her car, she found a flat tire. Mrs. Neece, like many women, did not know how to change the tire and had about decided to send out as SOS for some sturdy man to lend a hand. But along came Margaret Philips, who sized up the situation the heavy sedan was parked at the side of the road, which climbs steeply, then went to work with jack and wrench and in no time at all, had the job done.
