Organist Honored In Ashland Ashland - In recognition of 35 years continuous service as organist of the First Metho dist church Mrs. Frank Davis was honored by members of the congregation at a dinner held last week. Mrs. Davis played on the old hand-pumped organ now on exhibit in the Jacksonville museum when she began her duties in 1927 as assistant or ganist. The family life committee, sponsor of the testimonial din ner, was headed by Mr. and Mrs. Jay Kaylor, Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Barlletl and Mr. and Mrs. Ben Evans. Donald Lew is was master of ceremonies and Miss Florence Lusted rep resented the church members in expressing their apprecia tion for Mrs. Davis' long and efficient service. A silver tree bearing heart covered dollars was presented to the honored guest and a musical theme was used for the table and room decora tions. Two duets were sung by Mr. and Mis. Paul Byers, accompanied at the piano by Mrs. Allen McGce and an or iginal arrangement of num bers by Mrs. Marlcl Peters added a humorous touch. Choir members, past and pres ent, concluded the program with "An Ode to Annabel" conducted by Mrs. William Weber, choir director for the past 20 years. Many messages of greeting and congratulation were read and several organists from other churches added their best wishes. Among the guests were Mrs. J. W. McCoy, Pres byterian organist; Miss Mar garet Hamsay of the Congre gational church, and Mrs. C. R Arlamson, director of music at the Medtord Methodist church. In response to the congrat ulatory greetings Mrs. Davis spoke briefly on some of her experiences during the llf) years she has presided at the organ keyboard, telling inter esting incidents in cnnncelinn with musical history of the church. Hair Styles of the Past May Be Copied for Ball Since the organization of the Medford Junior Service league, the group's annual Charity Ball has been the highlight of the Christmas so cial season in the Rogue val ley. The gala event is held each year at Rogue Valley Country club, and the 1963 party is planned for Decem ber 15, Saturday. The theme for the parly this year is "Christmas, Past and Present" and it offers a wide range for elegant or un usual coiffeurs or head deco rations which all women at tending the ball will wear. If Milady's imagination is hot fired with current hair styles, she may turn to the old family album in search of inspiration. The Gibson )ii.iimm.i'Mw ! Girl or Flapper coiffeur can be brought back for one more evening of glory. Hair stylists and beauticians of the city are planning special creations to suit their clients and will be included in the praise which will accompany the awards given for the most outstanding results. The title of Queen of the Ball will be conferred on the lady judged to have the most outstanding hair arrangement or head dress. Many other prizes will be awarded. The party Is a benefit for the Junior Service league's kindergarten for children with speech or hearing diffi culties. Reservations may be made by calling Mrs. James McGoodwin, 773-3180.

If this handsome couple appeared at the ball, set for Saturday, De comber IS, at Rogue Valley Country club, they would com mand attention and admiration. They are Judge George Gardner, who served Jackson county in pioneer days when the courthouse was located in Jacksonville, and his wife, Clara.

(Benu.nmHlic Corp.) First Lady's Hairdo Ends 'Big Head' Era f . ' VOL By GAY PAULEY UPI Wom.n's Editor New York -WW- Mrs. John F. Kennedy's endorsement of a new, smooth and cap-like hairdo marks the end of an era in coif fures - the big head. Kenneth B a t telle, the air stylist who arranged the First L a d y's hair for that Wash ington oy Pauley television ex travaganza in which she never looked more stunning, said the "inflated", the extrava gantly bouffant hair styles have been on the wane for some time now. The stylist, known in 'he trade as Mr. Kenneth, didn't want to predict that Mrs. Kennedy's smooth upsweep would start every woman in the country toward the beauty shop demanding a copy. "I like to see each woman wearing what best suits her, said Kenneth. "I just don't lieve in everyone copying the First Lady." But even Kenneth, who urges women to be individual istic in style, acknowledges that his best known client is one of the strongest Influ ences in fashion today. Influence Great As any fashion observer can tell, let Mrs. Kennedy wear an easy -fitting overblouse dress and It becomes a na tional "ford" (best seller). Let her put a pillbox hat on the back of her head . . . and the whole millinery industry swings into pillbox produc tion. Let the First Lady wear a lace mantilla to church, and women by the thousands adopt the head covering. Her day time hair style, casually puff ed with a side sweep of bangs, became an institution. Photographs of Mrs. Ken nedy in that new evening hair style were featured In news papers around the country after she and the President helped kick off a drive to raise $30 million for a nation al cultural center in Wash ington. "Jackie's new look," read many of the picture captions. Kenneth, who flew from New York to Washington to produce the style, said it was a smooth sweep of bangs across the forehead. The back was swept up from the neck, and puffed out at the back of the crown. Did this mean a return also to upsweeps which had their heyday in the early 1940 s? Smaller Look "In" "Maybe for evening," said Kenneth. "But I don't think it matters whether hair is up or down. What does matter is that the smaller head look is in . . . small, without being flat. "No, we're not heading to ward plastered-down hair , . . just away from bigness. We've learned in the last five years that a little exaggeration of line does a lot for a head of hair." "I do hope that teen-agers i copy the First Lady to the ex tent that once and for all, those overly teased mops dis appear." Kenneth sees future hair cutting at "chin length", so that hair can be dressed to look casual by day, yet con vert to a smooth upsweep for evening. "Wear bangs," he added, "only if they suit you." The hairdresser, a native of Syracuse, N.Y., has been dressing hair for 15 years, starting in Syracuse and even tually moving to New York where he worked first for Helena Rubinstein. Almost seven years ago, he moved to Lilly Dache as chief stylist and his star has risen steadily with a roster of clients that reads like a "who's who' "400." Late in July he resigned from Dache to move out on his own. "I envision a great house of beauty," said Kenneth there is nothing around to day like what I have in mind." He said that his next proj ect - that house of beauty - was set for opening "about mid-February.
