Signs at the front of the house directed those attending to various western areas at the rear. The patio and yard were decor ated with saddles, bales of hay, horse blankets and west ern figures which Included an "old gray mare" which was put out to pasture in the back yard. Husbands and wives were given name tags which were decorated with brands fash ioned from the men's initials. Couples with matching brands then participated as partners In games and races. Dinner was served by Mrs. Lust and Mrs. Harlan Weaver, who were co-hostesses. After dinner, music was provided by the Coachmen trio.

MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. Many Changes Said Due In Nation's Schools Washington - (UPB - Stu dents in the next decade might very well study in a school that has no windows, no grades and yipee no report cards! Such expectations are based on experimental studies now under way on building design, teaching tools, changes in cur riculum. Changes around the corner, as authorities at the National Education Association reports them, include: ' Classrooms of different sizes. If the "team teaching" method becomes popular, school buildings will have to be changed. Team teaching will require large rooms for use when the entire class gets together and smaller ones for small group tutoring. Television. An increasing number of schools are using it now as a teaching aid.' Tape recorders. Especially helpful in teaching foreign languages, recorders now are being used in conjunction with slides and films to pro vide a running commentary for the ear to match visual stimulus. Tests. There will un doubtedly be fewer outside tests, already under fire from school administrators. It's wasteful to give so many tests, the administrators say, because many duplicate meas urement of the same thing academic ability. G r a d e s. An articulate group of educators, whose number is growing, says that grouping pupils on the basis of age is illogical since age alone has little to do with the level of ability of the student. Grouping on the basis of grades in each subject Is bet ter. But the best is abolishing grades and erasing report cards, too. Instead, each stu dent should be taught, these educators say, as much and as fast as he can absorb it, 1 . Young Adults Troublesome' Says Sociologist Berkeley, Calif. -fUPD- Some people think young teen-agers are a headache but a team of University of California so- ciologists says young adults from 18 to 25 years of age are much more troublesome. Dr. Gertrude Selznick and John Larktns report the young adults are more likely lo be in the divorce courts, in prison or on a psychiatrists couch than any other age group in the united States. Selznick and Larkins told of their findings in a 28-page report, "What is Known About Young Adults," releas ed by the University's Survey research center. "In short, young adults 'be long' less," said the report, "and when they do belong, they belong in more tenuous and tentative ways. One of the worst frustra tions to the young adult is employment. He is the first to be fired and the last to be hired. "It's a wonder that young adults, with no trade, living from hand to mouth on a sub marginal income and often strapped with the responsi bilities of marriage (and par enthood) don't wind up much worse off than they do," says Dr. Selznick. She found that only a small proportion of them actually get into serious trouble, but many come very close. Selznick and Larkins ex plained a prime cause for the difficulty. All the prestige and reward go to college graduates and four out of five young Americans don't go to college. "It is this huge, forgotten group that is experiencing the most difficulty," said Dr. Selz nick.. Visitors Central Point Recent vis itors at the home of Dr. and Mrs. L. L. Rowe were Mrs. I. R. Schlange and her three daughters, Pat, Diane and Marion, Ventura, Calif, Mrs. Schlange is a sister-in-law of Dr. Rowe. RCA WHIRLPOOL Portable DISHWASHER Supreme Model FPS0B L 25995 S3 OREGON Was Mona Lisa A Man? Experts, Tourists Argue By ALINE MOSBY United Press International Paris (UPB A debate between art experts over whether Mona Lisa was really a man caused a stir re cently among tourists in the Louvre museum. Tourists who flocked to see the da Vinci p a 1 n t i n g ex pressed shock, amusement and disbeliei over the specu lation. But some agreed the lady with the mysterious smile might have been a male. The latest argument started in Stockholm when Swedish painter and art critic Torburg Ottosdotter said Mona seemed male to her. In London, former Royal Academy President Albert Richardson said, "It's a pos sibility. But Royal Academy President Sir Charles Whee ler said "The Mona Lisa seems to me the embodiment of womanhood." London critic Mervyn Levy said all of Leo nardo da Vinci's women sub jects were "sexless." Tourists at Mona s nome grounds in the Louvre crowd ed about the painting today and gave serious scrutiny to the famous smiling face. A Jok.t "It could easily be a man, announced one American tourist, Mrs. Philip Frank of Detroit. "I've seen many faces in Florence on men that are like that long, thin nose, soft mouth, beautiful hands perhaps da Vinci did this portrait of a man as a private Joke." She and her husband stooa with some 30 tourists examin ing the portrait, which hangs In a gold-and-red velvet frame on a special red veivet-cov- ered wall on the second floor of the vast museum. The painting, smaller than the other da Vincls around it, is covered with glass. A red velvet rope and a guide keep the curious at their distance. "H u m m p h ," said Mr, Frank. "It looks feminine to me. There's a soft expression which I don't associate with men." Another tourist spoke up "Effeminate men were ill da Vinci's circle." "I should say it's a -worn. an," an English woman said firmlv. "A mischievous wom an who knows everytning about the world. Not an ordi nary woman but one who's reached the pit and come up again. "Her mouth is most femi nine. It's a woman," said Dutch tourist. Tourists Disagree "If you really look, you can see the man's face," put in another American, Olivia de Sclplo of Cambria Heights, Long Island, New York. "Impossible to think it could be a man," declared Pauline Cleary of Tampton, Mass. "She has an evil smile," said an Irish visitor, Mrs. Dick Denton, of Polly Lesson. "I can understand the chap who said he wants to throw something at her. I feel the same way. But oh, no, not a man." ' A French guide herded a group of American tourists to the painting and droned, "It took four years to paint . . . to distract the v..iodel da Vinci kept talking to her and so her eyes seem to follow you . . ." He added briskly, "It's quite possible she was a man, espe cially if we think of the life of da Vinci." A Californa teen-age girl said, "Aw, if I didn't know that was the Mona Lisa I'd walk right by it. Nothln' spe cial to me."

(UPI) Families Want Dining Rooms, ! Builders Say , By JOYCE SCHULLER United Press International Chicago - (UPII - American families again want dining rooms or at least clearly de fined dining areas. Builders attest to this fact, and A. L. Margolis, executive vice president of a furniture manufactur ing company (Dearborn) reports a marked increase in the sale of full scale dining room pieces. Margolis has found that apartment dwellers no longer want the dinette-sized tables or drop-leaf tables with a living room look that once were so fashionable. He be lieves that even families with no dining room and no space for one want dining room furniture that looks the part. The object is to create a dining room look in a corner of the living room, if neces sary. , Raise Floor In some cases, this is done by raising a portion of the floor to set off the dining area. In other cases, a dif ferent wallpaper defines the limits of the dining area. Homemakors with separate dining rooms seem to prefer early American furnishings for the dining room intended for regular and everyday use by the family. But Margolis reported an Increasing demand, too, for the old-time elegant dining room with crystal chandeliers and mahogany furniture in the 18th century tradition of Chippendale and Sheraton. Contemporary furniture for the dining room Is frequently the graceful Danish type with gently flared legs, open wood frames and modern textured fabrics. But some of the con temporary dining furniture now is upholstered in such traditionally elegant fabrics as rich damasks and antique satins that make for a more formal look. Margolis foresees an Increas ing trend . toward the more formal look In dining room furniture as more people be gin building homes with a separate dining room instead of the dining nook in so many ranch-type homes today.

SEPTEMBER 5. 1962 Judge Talks For Club Ashland - Soroptimists learned first hand some of the problems that face a munici pal Judge when they heard Richard Cottle speak on the subject at their luncheon meeting last Friday in the Mark Antony Crown room. The city Judge expressed concern over the apathy of adults and the tendency of parents to shift responsibility. He told of numerous instances so involved with home en vironment that legal meas ures were difficult. He feels that punishment should fit the crime, especially for juveniles who are guilty ot vandalism, and recommends hard physi cal lnbor rather than mone tary fines alone. Judge Cottle urged every one to accept civic responsi bility, especially in willing ness to serve on juries. At the conclusion of his talk there was a question and answer period. Mrs. Mabel Winston con ducted the meeting. At the monthly business session Fri day, September 7 Mrs. Louise Walters, chairman of the Fes tival booth concession, will make her final report. Tests show it costs less to open the refrigerator door a few times for longer periods than it does to open it often for short periods.
