Mrs. Ray Maurer, pro gram chairman, took charge of the event which also cele brated Founders' day. The program was planned as a surprise to Mr. Larson.

That fall he accepted a teaching post in Butte Falls, remaining there for one year and in Ap plegate for one year. The Ap plegate high school was then closed and pupils taken to Jacksonville. Later Mr. Larson taught in Phoenix, and from there went to the Prospect school as high school principal from 1929 through 1931. Returning to the Butte Falls system he re mained there until 1938, then was principal of the Sams Val ley High school for two years. During the war Mr. Larson was principal of Amity High school. Amity, Ore., and then for several years did not teach. In 1959 Mr. Larson re turned to Prospect as superin tendent of schools and has re mained since. One of the mystery guests was Glen Hale, Eagle Point, who had been on the Butte Falls faculty with Mr. Larson. Others were Mrs. Erma Glass Beddingfield, Eagle Point, and Mrs. Leo Hoag, Medford, both of whom attended the Butte Falls and Prospect schools when Mr. Larson was on the faculty. The honored man was pre sented an autograph album which many of those present signed. The Larsons, married in 1927, have three children.

Footlighters In Rehearsal For New Play "Five Finger Exercise" by Teter Shaffer has been chosen as the next production of Medford Footlighters. The veteran Footlighter, Frank Buchter, will direct the play, described as a drama with a touch of comedy. The title is said to have derived from the idea of the human hand with five fin gers, since the plot is about five people playing against each other and yet trying to play together. Director Butchter states that four of the five cast members are newcomers to the Footlighters. Joann Berg plays the role of Louise Harr, the mother; John Gregory is cast as the father, Stanley Harr; Elton Mitchell plays Oliver Harr, the son, and De- Audrey Knapp is the daugh ter, Pamela Harr. Lcs Boardman, who has played in a number of Foot- lighter productions, is cast as Walter Langer, a tutor. Production will be the sec ond week in April.

OREGON Reviewer Praises Wilde Play Ashland-Oscar Wilde's sati rical farce concerning two ro mantic young ladies who aspire to be being ma ricd to a man named "Earnest" was the offering of the Cleveland Playhouse Sunday evening at Southern Oregon college. And a delightful performance it was, too. Both audience and cast seemed to have a good lime as this group of players performed in this area for the first time. A coffee hour was held in Britt Student cen ter for the cast after the per formance. "The Importance ' Being Earnest," which has become a classic, was presented in high style by an acting en semble which played all roles with distinction. It ls diffi cult, therefore, to single out individual players for praise, but certainly the romantic young ladies in pursuit of an "Earnest" should be mention ed. Margaret Victor and " ' -da Ryan played Gwendolvn Fair. fax and Cecily Cardew with charm and grace. Richard Halverson and Charles Keating seemed at home in Wilde's play and spoke as if epigrams were a part of their everyday speech. JoAnn Finnell presented a formidable Lady Bracknell. Sue Kelly was properly prim as Miss Prism, and Richard Oberlin was amusing as the obliging clergyman. Festival Player Ordinarily servant roles are somewhat unrewarding to ac- lors, out Vaughn McBride's manservant and George Vafi adis' butler were more than mere "set dressing." They were characters in the Wilde charade as well. (Incidentally, Mr. Vafiadis is well known to Oregon Shakespearean Fes tival patrons for he played with this company for two seasons.) Although Wilde's play has lost some of its satiric bite with its jibes at the polite society of its day, it Is still entertaining to a modern au dience when it is as expertly staged. Bertram Tanswell's production had vitality and sparkle. Fresh and colorful costumes by Scott Bushnell and Paul Rodgers and imagi natively suggestive settings by uavia Hager added to the enjoyment. The Playhouse, now in Its 47th season, has been on tour for the last several years. Let us hope they come this way again, and this reviewer hopes that they will be able to play to a full house next time. Too many people missed a delight ful evening at the theatre Sunday night. - D.S. Doctor to Talk On 'Medicare' Medicare" will be the topic for a meeting tonight of District 4, Oregon State Nurses' association. Speaker will be Dr. Edwin R. Durno, former congressman from Oregon's Fourth district. The meeting will be held at 8 p.m. in Sacred Heart hos pital according to Mrs. Joan Bass, district president. Re freshments will follow. Deanna Boqgs 'WAC of Week' Ft. Knox, Ky. - Deanna L. Boggs, a specialist fourth class in the Women's Army corps, was named "WAC of the Week" at Ft. Knox last week.

Kansas City r Kan, Princess Paulina Murat of Paris, France, and Miss Floriant Broisett gets help from Patrol man Charles Forgey as they drove through Kansas City March 11. Princess Pauline is on a 13,000 mile, 33-siaU automobile tour of America. She is interviewing business men for French publications and talking to women's groups on "he Changing Role of French Women." (UPI) French Princess Here To See States By GAY PAULEY New York-(UPU-A French princess, who makes a career out of continent-touring by car, has wheeled off on a "see America" trip that in three months will take her 13,000 miles through 33 states. I hear so much about America's natural beauty, Princess Pauline Murat said in an interview before her departure. "I want to see some of it ... I want to see what lies between your big cities. And I want to talk to the American people. We are so influenced by you in France, you know. The princess, a five foot, two inch brunette, left New York with Floriane Brossette, native of Lyons, France, who has been a Red Cross ambulance driver. Miss Murat, 31, who said she was the first woman to drive from Paris to Moscow (that was in 1958), said the U.S. trip would be a combina tion of work and pleasure. The work part: Interview ing American businessmen for folksy profiles on them and their families for the maga zine Realties. She also will talk ot the modern French woman. The pleasure 'part: Sight seeing and side trips to Aspen, Colo., and Sun Valley, Idaho, to ski. Both women are ex cellent skiers and are carting their sports equipment atop their Renault convertible. Their schedule called for their arrival in Seattle by April 8, and a return to New York by the southern route by early June. They will keep two diaries one on the trip and the peo ple they meet, and one on the car. She said they planned to stay at hotels, motels, French consulates, or take advantage of friends, hospitality. "To spend all our money just to sleep, that is silly, said Miss Murat. Driving is a part of the princess' heritage. She is the daughter of the Marquis de Chasseloup Labat, one of France's first race drivers and a sports car enthusiast. Her grandfather raced. Her broth er is a sports car driver and rallyist, she said. And she has logged 50,000 auto miles in Europe, Asia and Africa. Miss Murat is a descendant of the King of Naples, who was Emperor Napoleon's brother-in-law, and counts among her paternal ancestors one who married George Washington's niece and served in the Seminole War. Her great-grandmother was the Georgian Princess Dadiani. Wc asked her what she Counsel With . . . Mr. Insurance Fred Brennan F. R. Brennin, C.I.A. MEDFORD INSURANCE Agency PHONE 773-7343 27 North Holly Street iii&still by Auto thought of women drivers. "I don't think one's sex is a factor in driving ability," she said. "But you know what I notice in America. A wife will be driving a car while her husband sits alongside, taking life easy. In France, such would not happen. The husband would be at the wheel." Her one rule for safety on the road? "Prudence," she answered.
