BICYCLE SAFETY - Jackson county school students who ride bicycles will have the opportunity to become safer and more skilled bicycle "pilots" by participating in the forthcoming bicycle safety program this month. Above, Parks and Recreation Director Robert Haworth points out details of the bicycle mechanical safety check to school principals, members of the St. Mary s elementary school safety council and Medford police officers. By passing the stafety check and a true false test students may qualify for the "Roadeo" to be held at Medford Shopping Center Saturday, Oct. 20. Former Concert Pianist Aspirant Concentrates on Breathing Males W'1 p By DICK WEST Washington -JPD- Early In her career. Rusty Warren as pired to be a concert pianist But sometning went wrong As a student at the New England Con- s e r vatory of Music, she found that she was unable to concentrate on Chopin, B e e- went t h o v e n and Bach. Miss Warren had noth ing against them personally except that they are dead. She prefers to concentrate on males who are at least breath ing. So she withdrew from the conservatory and became a sort nt sociologist. She . now travels around the country giving lectures on s-e-x. On thing that distin guishes her from other lec turers on this topic is her choice of forum. Rather than deliver her messages in lecture halls, she appears in such centers of enlighten ment as cabarets and supper clubi. Moreover, when Miss War ren Is giving a lecture she ac companies herself on the piano. Upon hearing her play, you would never guess that she had been trained ln a con servatory. This possibly accounts for her rapid rise as a night club atlraction. It mny also explain why her record albums have been selling more than a mil lion copies - In some places, under Hie counter. It is more likely, however, that she draws large audiences because of her unusual ap proach to the subject. Miss Warren looks upon s-e-x us I ton P 'WNM'.WKHOTICE I DIDN'T SIM W OMR?' something laughable and no hesitation about saying so. For some reason, her jocular comments endear her particularly to other women, who are her most ardent fans and who some times travel miles to catch her act. Miss Warren was playing an engagement here this week and my deep and abiding in terest In cultural inHllers prompted me to have a talk with her. Naturally, I asked her why the majority of her following was female. "It's simple dearie," she said. "Women have always re garded s-e-x as basically ri diculous. But most of them don't have the nerve to say so. They enjoy my songs and pat ter because I say It for them." "What do you think of the space program?" I asked, thinking it was time to change the subject. "It's unfair to women," Miss Warren replied. "You mean women should be allowed to become astro nauts?" "No," she said, "I mean it's unfair lo send men oil by themselves in space ships. We need them down here."

Bicycle Roadeo Is j Scheduled in City j By Woman's Club The Medford Junior Wo men's club is sponsoring a "Bicycle Safety Roadeo" Sat urday, Oct. 20, at the Medford Shopping Center parking lot. Participating schools will ; give the mechanical and true-' false tests during the first part of October. Cyclists with pass ing scores may then enter the skills test to be held at the Medford Shopping center, of-. ficers said. Medford merchants are do nating prizes to be awarded the three top winners in both i the boys' and girls' divisions. A grand prize will go to the entrant with the highest score.

A total of 122 cyclists qualified for the "Roadeo" I portion of the program. "Statistics show that just under 3,000 bicycle licenses are sold each year in the city of Medford and it is estim ated that a total of 5,000 children are riding bikes in the Medford school district area," according to Glcnna Chamberlain, safety chairman of the Medford Junior Wo men's club. Children who fail either the ' mechanical or written test at their school will be tested again at the Roadeo, it was explained. The skills test in cludes a test of balance, of i steering ability, of maneuver-1 ability, braking ability and use of hand signals. Advisory Council Letter Reviews Its Track Objections A letter from the advisory council to the Jackson county juvenile court reviews the council's objections to a pro posed pony track at the coun ty fairgrounds, and proposes that a long range plan be developed for (he area. The proposed plan by the Southern Oregon Pony associ ation to lay out a quarter mile race track near the Jackson county juvenile detention home "is opposed by the coun cil as detrimental to the func tioning and operation of the detention home," according to a letter from John Crabb, ad visory council vice chairman.

An article on the Ashland Shakespearian Festival, writ ten by Travel .'"ditor Arnold Rosenfcld, has appeared in a Texas newspaper, the Hous ton Post. A four column picture showing a scene from "Com edy of Errors" appeared wittt the story. The article described the origin of the festival, its oper ation and devotes particular attention to the pre-play ac tivities. Rosenfeld wrote In part: "To the first-time viewer, tlie most impressive thins is the stage, and its use. Modern playwrights desperately look ing for new forms, might do well to look at the Elizebethan stage. It is a wonderful vehi cle for a play. One scene flows into another with such grace and style thai you hardly notice that there has been any change. Characters scream from windows, rush into doors, consult in coiners, hang from lamp posts, eat at tables, yell threats at ban quets two stories above. I' makes mechanics seem pale." The writer concludes the article with a comment on Ashland's famed 1-ithia water. "Then you walk out into the cool Oregon evening to your car, or perhaps to a small square nearby where the vis itor is good-heartedly encour aged to take a dnnk of Ash land j pungent ininrml water One drink is enough " Mosenleld was one of four travel editors who toured the northwest durins the summer The tour was sponsored by the Tacifir Northwest Travel association, of which the Medford Chamber of Com merce is a member. continuing necessity to expand j public services and buildings to house these services, it would appear to be desirable for the future of this com munity to use extreme caution in the use of litis area of pub- i licly owned property," Crabb j wrote. I "We therefore wish to recommend that the city and county planning commission, the city council and county court develop an overall, long range plan for this area. The Juvenile council would wel come an opportunity to dis cuss this matter in more de-1 tail at your convenience," Crabb concluded. The proposal for the pony track was reviewed in August by the advisory council at the request of the county court. The plan was originally pre sented to the county court several months before that. When the county court learned of the plan, it referred the matter to Circuit Judge James M. Main, who also is juvenile court judge, and to the advisory council. Mrs. Ben Day, then council chair man, wrote the county court that the council felt the pro posed location of the track behind the detention home would be detrimental. The council emphasized then ' it had no objection to estab lishment of the pony track at the fairgrounds and feels it would be a beneficial recre ational facility if it would be maintained for public use. It recommended location of the track east of the bureau of land management warehouse and north of Armory rd. Although a public hearing on the matter was suggested, further action 'was delayed early in September until County Judge Karl Miller re turned from vacation. No action has been taken yet, but a group of citizens interested in developing an open class county fair and ob taining property more suitable for an overall fairgrounds has suggested the pony track and other such facilities could he included in a new fairground.
