James, Sama Valley, chairman of the youth activity program here, told Gold Hill Chamber of Commerce members that the teen-age party held July 31 was a success. He said at least 60 young people attended the affair which included an evening of games, cook-out, and dancing. James represents the Cham ber on this project sponsor ed by local organizations for teen-agers in this community. James believes another party may be held sometime in August if the young peo ple want one. However, he added no plans have been made because he has not had an opportunity to discuss the matter with other members of the youth activity board. The last party was ar ranged by Miss Laura Thom as and a committee of young people. It was reported at the Chamber meeting that a great deal of credit is due Mrs. John Thomas who assist ed the young people with de tails that required adult at tention both prior to and dur ing the party. Mrs. Thomas represents the Gold Hill Grange on 'the youth activity board, and is one of five adults named to serve on the entertainment committee In an advisory ca pacity. Richard Abbott, president of the chamber, and fellow members extended a special thanks U Frank Sutcliffe and C. Norman Gail for making it possible for the teen-agers to have the street between Gail's Gold Hill market and Walker's service station light ed for dancing. Gail provided from his store the electric outlet need ed and Sutcliffe, manager of Ideal Cement Company plant, had flood light equipment in stalled for the occasion.

The visit was considered a success, reported Mrs. John Harr, local Red Cross chair man, considering that many regular donors were out of town. Regional Roundup by Clave Twitched Mail Tribuns Regional Editor The human race has a remarkable ability to forget. We're grateful to have a man like R. E. Nealon and his "Tablets" column around to act as a memory for us. It was comforting to read in his column last Friday that he remembered an August when it rained for a whole week, following which the sun came back out and there was warm weather again. During those three days of "winter type" rain last week, we were beginning to wonder if the summer had really ended. But sure enough, the temperature was back in the 90s over the week end and the sun was shining. We hear quite a bit of talk about changes in our planet's weather patterns. And the weather is changing with respect to the last 10 or 20 years. But are these changes bringing about weather completely new to the areas involved? We doubt it. Virtually everything that human beings experience has happened before. People often forget that it has happened before and even ignore the evidence frequently available to show that it has happened before. We are reminded of the contention that "there is nothing new under the sun." How true that statement may well be'. An interesting case to ponder is that of the lost continents of Atlantis and Lemuria. They're considered a joke or a myth by many, but a trip to the library and a scanning of books available on the subject reveals that there is an amazing amount of evidence to support the existence of highly civilized races on both continents ages ago. The Occult Explanation According to occult stories, Atlantis and Lemuria were occupied by races more highly developed than our present-day civilization who got into a nuclear war and destroyed each other and their respective continents. There's no evidence to prove that? Neither is there evi dence to discount it. We are talking of a long-ago age and legends and myths are all we have to go on. We do recall, however, reading some years ago that scientists had discovered fused green glass in amongst so-called Stone Age remains-green glass similar to that former by nuclear explosions. This poses an interesting considera tion: did the caveman really come UP from the apes, or did they come DOWN from civilized human being who de generated after a nuclear war? Perhaps we have been through the events of the present day before. Anti-Climax Bertha Hanscom, our Phoenix correspondent, com pleted her trip across the United States to New York and Maine and back without incident, not even a flat tire. Then 24 hours after her return she was involved in a bad accident on South Stage rd. a week ago Saturday night that sent six people to the hospital, one in which a car stopped for a cat crossing the road, causing an auto behind to swerve across the center line and strike the pickup in which Bertha was riding head-on. The pickup, which had crossed the country both ways without inci dent, was demolished. Bertha was in Rogue Valley Me morial hospital for several days, but now is resting at home.

MEDFORD 772-6779 Regional News d Their Telephone Number.: 698-1208 Costas Stathatos Of Greece Visits Eagle Point Family By DOTTIE HARBISON Eagle Polnt-Costas Statha tos of Athens, Greece, is visit ing at the home of Miss Molly Gregg and her parents Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Gregg, 811 South 'C Street, Eagle Point this week. Miss Gregg and Mr. Statha tos started corresponding in 1958 while he was still in Athens. He also corresponded with Miss Teena Leuwen burgh, now living in Medford prior to this with the two get ting their names through an international pen pal group. Costas came to the United States in 1961 via the New York port and has attended Davidson College in Davidson, North Carolina on a Richard son International Scholarship. Prior to this he attended the University of Athens for three years. Costas said he liked the United States generally speak ing. People are the same the world over, he indicated, some you like and some you don't care so much for. He quickly commenterd that he was very impressed with the hospitality he was receiving from Eagle Point Mayor and Mrs. Gregg and their two daughters, Molly and Connie since he arrived in Eagle Point last Friday. In Washington At the present time, Costas is employed by the Green John company at its pea can nery in Washington. He plans to spend 90 per cent of his time next year .in Eastern Oregon College at La Grande. His main emphasis is placed on academic procedures. While he maintains his high grade point average, he is happy to give lectures, appear at clubs, organizations, and other groups as a good will ambassador and to learn the way of life here in the United States. He compares the first two years of our college to the last two years of high school in European schools and the last two years of college here to the first two years of college there. From approximately 2,000 candidates, only 500 were ac cepted at the University of Athens last year. "We have no choice in subjects there. We have to take 12 courses (depending on the school) both in high school and the Uni versity. If we specialize or major in a subject the courses required are the ones we take," Costas noted. Youngsters are required to go to school until they are 14 years of age but the greatest percent strive to attend the universities. A teacher has no retirement age there and the turn over is not as great as it is here. To become a professor in the Universities, a teacher must prove himself starting at the high school level and work up as advancements are re ceived in most businesses in the United States. 5 Awv START ON MONDAY-SWIM ON SUNDAY Healthful living and family pleasure at a price everyone can afford.

Private schools have a much higher standard of education there. The average layman re ceives $2 a day for wages. Needless to say their living and food expenses are also much lower than in the Unit ed States. There is very little large scale gardening in Greece as everyone raises their own with sheep being the prime animal raised. They have few cows. Mr. Stathatos happily an nounced that less than 8 per cent of the people in Athens are leftist or communist fol lowers. The young men in Athens are neither drafted or serve the traditional two years in the armed forces of their country as is customary here in the United States. Policeman's Son Costas is the son of a police officer. The times are chang ing in Greece. Women are ac cepting more and more of the work. The accepted jobs for women there are as clerks in stores and secretaries. Modern machinery is used and cars are abundant in the larger cities. People travel by bus from the suburbs. Costas said his goal would probably ba to gain experience and pres tige to be accepted as a uni versity teacher in the future. Molly Gregg just completed a course at Southern Oregon College and will reenter as a junior this fall. While he is here they have planned trips to the Oregon Caves, the many lakes and general sight seeing around the valley. A television interview is being arranged for the guest from Greece and he said he would be willing to appear at a few meetings by invitation this week.
