C. last week and came away with the distinct impression that this interesting woman knows exactly what she's talking about. Mrs. Bullock, director of information for the Na tional Trust for Historic Preservation, had been in San Francisco to attend the group's national convention, and then came to Oregon to fill speaking engagements in Jackson ville and Portland. We may be wrong, but we have a hunch that Mrs. Bullock's short stay in Jacksonville will result in something good for the town. Of course, members of the Siskiyou Pioneer Sites founda tion who arranged for her valley visit were hopeful that Mrs. Bullock would be interested in historic Jacksonville, and she was. The local Foundation is working for the restora tion and preservation of historic buildings and spots in Jack sonville, and Mrs. Bullock and her organization can be of invaluable help. The visitor was encouraging in many ways. She said that first of all, Jacksonville is fortunate in having so many well-built brick buildings. Wooden buildings deteriorate, burn down, are easily damaged by storms, etc. Well-construct ed brick structures last much longer and lend themselves to restoration. Mrs. Bullock spoke admiringly of the Jack sonville buildings, and said the soft color of the bricks used in most of the buildings is quite like that in Virginia towns. She also expressed the opinion that the Jacksonville brick, much of it made in a brick yard which operated in the town in the olden days, is holding up much better than some of those used in Virginia buildings. Medford unit of the Ameri can Contract Bridge league plans an invitational open pairs tournament fur Sunday, October 28, at Girls Commu nity club. The tournament will be in two sessions, the first at 1 p.m. and the second at 7:30 p.m. and all duplicate players in this locality are invited to enter. Mrs. F. R.

A 7 Home Ashland Mrs. Harold S. Merrill, 651 Siskiyou boule vard, spent two weeks in Cali fornia visiting in Berkeley and Sacramento. She returned to Ashland October 10. Women's News Social Events SFT Yi ' UY '' f. ft - -5-,. . - i e f t - At ' 5 V. jJLaJiLi, Art Am .n. ..ill Mrs. Bullock was regretful that the weather had been stormy and said it had prevented her from walking about Jacksonville as much as she wanted to do. "If you want to really see a town or city, walk about in it," she advised, She added that the visitors should always look up, also, and see the walls and tops of the buildings. The best aspects of a building's architecture, and its period, are often revealed at the top, she explained. This authority on restoration had much advice for the local Foundation members and urged them to have a well defined program and keep working at it. Cities and towns seeking financial help from agencies, other foundations and governmental bureaus are much more likely to get it if they have made a good start themselves, she said. Inquiring about Mrs. Bullock's ideas on restoration, one Jacksonville woman said "We don't want this town turned into a circus" and the visitor agrees. She said if industries are to be keyed into a restoration and tourist-attraclng pro gram, they should be in keeping with the city's history and should be restrained in tone. "We have 'little Disneylands' springing up all over America" she said in a disapproving voice and added that some of them are pretty terrible. a Although she now lives in Washington, D.C., Mrs. Bullock is a native of California and said that she was extremely happy that her group's national convention had been in San Francisco. "Some of the delegates thought there wasn't anything west of the Mississippi worth knowing about," she declared. "They found out they were wrong." Speaking of the spread of architectural Ideas from one part of the nation to another, Mrs. Bullock said that although octaganol houses had originated in the New England states, some of those in the Far West are almost as old. When she asked if there were any in this area, Mrs. Dwight Houghton, one of the most active workers in the Pioneer Sites foundation here, said that there arc three, one in the upper Rogue river area, one in the Talent-Phoenix area and one In Gold Hill. Mrs Bullock said that these houses were first built In the eastern states by men named Fowler who were phren ologists and that the shape of the buildings had a significance arising from their study of this subject. Our talk with Mrs. Bullock was cut short because she had to rush off to catch a plane to Portland Mrs. B. was apprehensive about this because she had missed her plane's call in the San Francisco airport and as a result of her importunities, airport officials called the ship back to the loading area after it had taxied away. Mrs. Bullock plans to return to Jacksonville for a further study of the town and to help with plans for restoration of important build ings, which spread cheer in the ranks of the Foundation workers.
