Sorority Aids Fund For Toys Beta Upsilon chapter. Beta Sigma Phi sorority, last week presented a check to the Rogue Valley Memorial hos pital to be used in the toy fund lor the pediatric depart ment, according to a hospital spokesman. Presenting the check was Mrs. Larry Rose, president of the chapter, Mrs. Kenneth Goebel, treasurer, Mrs. Jack Rentz, chairman of the ways and means committee and Mrs. Fred Wilson. Following presentation of the check a tour of the pediatric depart ment and other areas of the hospital was made by the group. Helping to provide toys for children in the hospital has been chosen by the Beta Up silon chapter as one of their community projects and each month members of the soror ity will arrange for magazines and books for children. This project is especially impor tant, the chapter feels, since many of the children hospital ized are from out of town and are unable to bring toys and books from home.

By ETHELYN EVANS Manor members are often forced to make "agonizing" decisions - there are so many social, cultural, charitable and just plain interesting things going on all the time, conflict ing and over-lapping in de mands upon our time. There are relatively few members who wish to confine their in terests exclusively to Manor life, but even they find it im possible to attend or take part in the many programs, classes, parties and recrea tional opportunities offered. Those of us who thoroughly enjoy participation in all man ner of valley activities, as well as Manor affairs, face downright frustration at times. Instead of being lei surely "retired," we find our selves merely "tired." For instance, after attend ing and enthusiastically re porting one book review here I've never manaced to hear another, although each has Tw St. Mary High school been reported to me as ex-1 students will be part of a cellent. Likewise, some of usi group from Oregon and Wash who were unable to re-ar- ington who will leave Port- range schedules or commit- ments on short notice, missed at least one musical and two dramatic programs recently. We are appealing to our Coun cil - each Council member is chairman of one Manor ac tivity - to describe programs more fully and factually and as far in advance as possible perhaps monthly instead of weekly - so that we may be aided in choosing and in re shuffling our available time. One of the dramatic pro grams I missed was the pre sentation of "The Rivals," an 18th century comedy of manners by Richard Sheridan. The parts were read before the new "bank of micro phones," the most recent pur chase made by our Council for the auditorium, by the fol lowing members: Clara Hinze, Blanche Cowbrough, Jean nette Stevens, Winslow Weth erbee, Walter Higgins, Samuel Amey, Ray Neptune and Grace Wetherbee. Mrs. Weth erbee also designed and sketched the attractive and authentic costumes. She even made all the wigs by hand, and they were clever and realistic. ' Two hobbies that somehow failed to gain much momen tum in the Manor last year, are booming along this sea son. One is tailoring, and quite a large number of my friends signed up for this. Joan Beasley, county exten sion agent for home eco nomics, taught the class. An other hobby is enameling on copper. Mrs. John Reed. Ash land, gave some lessons on this, and the Council pur chased a new kiln for the bak ing. I have seen only a few examples of this work - made by Mrs. Shelby Tuttle. They were an attractive set of pin and earrings and a perfectly exquisite Celtic cross, green, of course, which she present ed to The Rev. George R. V. Bolster, rector of St. Marks Episcopal church and a vice president of the Manor board of trustees. There is a new class being organized for lip reading, taught by Mrs. Jahn, and 1, of necessity, must get in on that. Also, our Manor men have been invited to join in Barber Shop Quartet singing which is being organized Sat urday evening at the Red Cross building. No doubt a number will sign up for that. During a very short period of time, our Dr. and Mrs. George Breece entertained houseguests. They were Mrs. Marion Down of Los Angeles, a lyric soprano who gave a concert for our members, their son and wife from Sacra mento, the Melvin Breeces, and a niece. Mrs. Herbert Lindhomn from Pasadena, Calif. The son is assistant en gineer of design of California highways and Mrs. Breece was interviewed on both KMED radio and TV, and gave programs on East Asia for the Phoenix Presbyterian, the Grants Pass Christian, the Gold Hill Methodist and the Sutherlin Christian churches; also, somehow, both the Breeces managed to wedge in several days in Eugene. Ore , attending the Oregon Church Assembly. i Not to neglect the social FREE - FREE - FREE Hearing Aid Service AT THE MEDFORD HOTEL Tuesday, April 16th HOURS 9 A.M. TO 2 P.M.
