Sam Taylor, Elk Lumber company. Taylor, chairman of the forest products advisory com mittee to the Forest Research laboratory, Corvallis, urged even greater expenditures in research as the lumber in dustry strives to maintain present markets and expand into new ones. Taylor's comments were made at a recent meeting in Medford attended by mem bers of the forst products ad visory committee, the forest land management advisory committee and administrative personnel from the Forest Re seach laboratory. Ralph Brind ley, Medford, is chairman of the land management commit tee. Others in attendance in cluded State Senator Lynn Newbry, State Representative elect James Redden and iner ested members of the South ern Oregon Conservation and Tree Farm association. The forest industry repre sentative noted that 85 per cent of the half-million dollar research budget is secured through the forest harvest tax paid by the private lumber companies at the time the trees are harvested. Ten per cent is received by allocations from the general fund and five per cent is the result of grants and gifts to the Forest Reseach laboratory, located on the Oregon State university . campus. ' Status Change The recent change in admin-! lstration of the laboratory from an independent status to an affiliation with Oregon State university has been ; beneficial, Taylor noted. It : has served to compliment the ! work of the Forest science de-! partment at the university and will eventually result in even greater research bene fits, he predicted. j Dr. Rudy Kalendar, direct- j or, Forest Research labora- tory, outlined general areas of j research conducted by the I staff and noted that close liaison is maintained with others engaged in similar re search to prevent duplication of effort. The director explained that the emphasis was on applied research, but basic investiga tions are also a part of the program. He noted that this latter phase was one which held great promise for an ex panded lumber industry which already contributes more than 60 per cent to the basic econ omy of the state of Oregon. Dr. Kalendar outlined the cooperative efforts of other agencies, both public and pri vate, in the field of forestry research and marveled at the tremendous potential re sources offered by these groups. It makes possible, he said, studies of the most fun damental nature as well as those aimed at solving imme diate, practical problems of the forest products industry. Reports by Dr. Bever on forest land management and engineering research and Dr. Lief Espenas on forest pro ducts and silvachemical re search completed the labora tory presentation. Roseburg Mother Confesses Robbery Salem lUPli A 21-year-old mother of two was being held in Clackamas county jail in Oregon City after confessing the Oct. 26 armed robbery of a South Salem supermarket.

First Concert of Season Held; Pianist Presented A 3 By R. D. WERNER For its first concert of the 1962-63 season the Jackson County Civic Music associa tion presented Jorge Bolct, pianist. Bolct Is a tall and sturdily built man and it is well that he was using a concert grand instead of the school piano. We do not believe the old faithful could have stood up long under the pianist's for midable efforts. Beginning with a "Rondo, Op. 51" followed by a "So nata Op. 110" by Beethoven, it soon became evident that great volumes of tone and heavy climaxes were to be the fare. With an abundance of technic, not always the clean est, and over-use of the sus taining pedal, much of the music was over-played. The characteristic left-hand roll ing figuration of Beethoven's piano music was written for an instrument of much less sonority and power than the one in use today. Modern pi anists on the whole disregard this fact and consequently the harmonic structure becomes thick and muddy. "Variations and Fugue on a theme by Handel, Opus 24" by Brahms was next. This is the sort of thing in which Brahms had no superior. Var iations were the greater part of his musical thinking and was the basis of most of his composing. This work, though not so well known as the Haydn variations for orches tra, is nevertheless a most ingenious composition and Brahms and Bolct exploited the piano to its fullest. After such heavy going, it was time for intermission. Two early works of Franz Liszt opened the second half of the program and although not great music, it did let some air in and a little light. More pianistic and not so or chestral in conception, it is an attempt at tone painting. Good music for a piano virtuoso to display his skill. Waltzes from "Die Fledcr maus" by Strauss by the great pianist Godowsky closed the program. Bolct evidently en joyed playing this piece and he did so brilliantly, although not with the greatest clarity. The bubble and effervescence of Vienna weie not present as often as they should have been. But for the audience it was what they had been wait ing for. The applause was pro longed. One auditor even shouted a few "bravos." Bolet responded with a noc turne and an etude by Chopin real piano music. The at mosphere was now clear, al though it was raining outside. The pianist used a Baldwin concert grand brought from Salem, with arrangements made by the Lusk Piano com pany here. GREETING CARDS . io lemeMoOi...
