10 A WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 3. 1962 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOHD, OREGON Social Events Women's News "If the community is interested in having a civic audi torium in the proposed new Medford high school, members of the school board will be willing to confer with a group and hear plans and ideas." Superintendent of Schools Leonard Mayficld said this at a meeting of Jackson County Civic Music association work ers Monday night. The association's annual membership drive is under way now, and since Civic Music concerts are usually presented in the Medford High school auditorium, the workers and members are among those valley residents most interested in what the school board plans for the pro posed new school. Dr. Mayfield said that in all probability the new school, If planned for ordinary use only, would not have a large auditorium. The "rule of thumb" for such buildings is an auditorium which will seat only about half the expected student body anc this would be about the size of the one in the present hign school. He added that should the community wish a large, civic type auditorium constructed at the same silo, it would have to be financed separately since the school district could not be expected to do so from school funds. "Wc have enough financial troubles as il is," the superintendent said. Stressing that planning is in Ihc early stages, and his statements at this time are "only conjecture," Dr. May- field said that the board plans to have a tract of land large enough for the high school and a large parking lot and probably enough for a large auditorium "if the community wants it." He digressed to point out that parking is a major problem and that the tract must be large enough to count one car for every four students enrolled. He said that since the present school has an adequate football stadium, hut not basketball pavilion, that in all likelihood the new school would have the latter. Superintendent Mayfield said several times during his brief talk "Now is the time for those who feel the need ' of a civic auditorium to meet with the school board and talk this matter over." During a short informal discussion period. It was point ed out that if the civic auditorium should be linked to (he school system, in all likelihood there would he the probem of conflicts of dates, since the school would need j the use of the building for many school functions. j I Mrs. Margaret Mary Musso, national Civic Music rop-j rescntative here to aid the drive, was greeted ns an old . friend by many of the workers. Mrs. Musso, looking ex tremely handsome in a black frock with several strands of pearls and a becoming white flowered hat, said she was delighted to be back in the Rogue valley but fell forced to enter a complaint. She couldn't find any pears for sale in food stores. Mrs. Musso is unusually fond of pears thinks that a ripe Bartlctt is one of the choicest fruits available and was looking forward to buying these, or some other variety, when she arrived here. She came in Sunday and both that day and Monday tried to buy pears, finding none. Loyal residents assured her that Bartletls are either In storage or have all gone to packers or processors and that apparently stores arp "between varieties" now. This citizen has found the news from Mississippi In recent days exceedingly depressing. And the news from Cape Canaveral doesn't do anything much to lighten our spirits. We agree with the Rev. Theodore M. llesburgh, president of the University of Notre Dame, who was quoted recently as having said "Personally, I don't care if the United Slates gels the first man on the moon if, while this is happening on a crash basis, we dawdle along here on our corner of the Earth nursing our prejudices, flouting our magnificent Constitution, Ignoring the central moral problem of our time and appearing as hypocrities to all the world."
