Talent Woman
Returns Home
Talent-Mrs. Roseoe Owens
returned yesterday from Seal
Beach, Calif., where she and
her daughter, Cynthia, have
been visiting at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. Jack Cook and
Laurie.
Mrs. Cook is the former
Sandra Owens, and Mr. Cook
is the son of Mr. and Mrs
John M. Cook, Camp Baker
Road.
Miss Owens will remain in
Seal Beach for the summer.
Music and drama festivals are the vogue all over North
America and Europe, and southern Oregon Is not being left
behind. The well-established Oregon Shakespearean festival
in Ashland is being Joined this summer by the Peter Britt
Gardens Music and Arts festival (we hope this somewhat
cumbersome name will not be eventually reduced to the
PBGMAF like so muny other titles have been by the always-in-a-hurry
Amcricuns) to be given in Jacksonville In August.
The Idea, spawned in the bruin of Sam McKinncy, Port-
and, has met with mixed favor in Jacksonville, it must be
admitted. This reaction is probably typical, however. Muny
residents of Ashland thought Angus Bowmer and his co
horts were foolish indeed when they sturtcd the Shake
spearean festival, and just see what happened!
Potpourri learned a bit more about the Peter Britt fes
tival Sunday morning from a group gathered in the living
room of that delightful little old building in Jacksonville
which Robby Collins hus mudc into his home. Robby en
joys having friends in on Sunday and the friends enjoy
going, one might add. Lewis and Guil Tyccr Mrs. Tyccr is
the formdr Gull Gutter who have undertaken the task of
publicizing the new venture, were In tho group. The con
versation indicuted thul the new festival has its problems,
as do most new, civic projects, but the board, headed by
Bert Prec, Is confident thai everything will be In readiness
by the opening date, August 11. We'll be interested to read
Director John Truclcau s list of musicians we understand
that the orchestra will number some 30 or 35 players.
The' backers of the Jacksonville festival are not the
only planners with ideas, cither. For the past three or four
years several musicians and music patrons in McdEord have
been Incubating the Idea of a summer schedule of light
opera and theater. The board of tho Philharmonic, society
which has been producing Gilbert and Sullivan and similar
light opera during tho winter season, has a considerable
backlog of talent, scores, costumes and props which could
be put to excellent use lor such a venture.
The Idea was given considerable impetus with the visit
here this spring of Willium Cottrcll. He was one of the
early Shukcsucurcun actors, did a stint in Hollywood and
In recent years has played and directed In New York City
and In summer theater in the east. Bill Cottrell Is here
a part of every year to be with his mother, and while he
was last In the city, spent considerable time with Richard
Werner and others of the Philharmonic talking over the
summer theater idea. Ho is now on the roud with Ustinov's
play, "Romanoff and Juliet" but plans to return in lute
summer. He hopes to open a school of acting possibly in
Jacksonville studio. He is enthusiastic about the summer
opera idea, and believes that it would complement the
Shakespearean and Jacksonville festivals. The men hope
that the first season can be launched In H)b4.
Others in on the planning are Ralph Matlack. who likes
to design and make scenery for such productions, Eugene
Bennett, who would advise on artistic mutters; Ray Lewis,
who has directed chorus and school operettas in Mcdford
for several years. Mr. Werner would be music director.
Planning for the usual coming fall and winter Philhar
monic season is already underway. "Pinafore" is to be pro
duced in lute October, perhaps the 2Hth and 20th, with
Tresa Matlack singing Josephine, Everett Winter as Rate,
Maynard Hadley as the Captain, Lee Harlow as Sir Joseph
and Sue Doe of Grants Puss as Buttercup.
In mid-January Victor Herbert's "Fortune Teller" is
scheduled with Sylvia DeVoss, Mrs. line, Dr. Harlow and
Maynard Hadley of the vulley in the cast. George Peckhum
will probably come down from Seattle for this operetta.
Next March, probably the 7th and 8th, Humperdlnek's
Hansel and Gretcl" will be given as a treat for children
of the area.
If both the Jacksonville outdoor music festival and the
Mcdford light opera and summer theater program can hr
successfully staged and why not'.' the Rogue vulley could
offer an outstanding puckage of music and theater in Ash
land, Mcdford and Jacksonville.
Man Spending Millions
Advises 'Shop Around7
If
BY GAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Editor
New York - (UPI) - The shop
ping list Howard Powell fills
cost :nillions annually. But
this expert on purchasing on
a large scale
believes one
rule for shav
ing costs ap
ples to the
housewife a I
well as to his
o r ganization,
"Keep shop
ping around-
keep looking
for new sourc
e s." said
Powell, who buys sewing ma
chines by the hundreds, can
ning jars by the thousands.
Don't let the retailer figure
he has your patronage "sewed
up, he said.
Powell is deputy assistant
executive director for procure
ment for CARE, the U.S. or
ganization helping the needy
of 39 countries.
The CARE program includ
es food and clothing donations
-he supervises CARE'S pur
chase of 125 million pounds
of food a year; the self-help
projects in which everything
from school kits to plows are
donated to help nations to
ward self - sufficiency; and
Medico, the medical arm in
operation with CARE since
March 1962. The overall bill
for this is between $2.5 mil
lion and $3 million annually.
Gives Away Surplas
In addition, Powell's de
partment acts as "delivery
boy" for one billion pounds of
food surplus donated to needy
nations by tho U.S. govern
ment each year. ,
Powell valued these foods
at $40 million, and said they
were distributed on basis of
what a country requests. His
organization has a mission on
the scene in each country it
serves.
"Tho bulk of the food sur
plus goes to large programs,
most of them school feeding
projects," said Powell. He es
timated that 18 million school
children are benefiting from
the foods program.
Powell has one money-sav
ing advantage the average
homemukcr does not have
he buys wholesale and below.
And many companies just
give. He recalled in an inter
view that he was negotiating
for purchase of between 100,-
000 and 150,000 pounds of
shortening, , i
Powell said that when' he
haggled with the maker over
the cost-that he could get It
cheaper elsewhere - the com
pany representative said, "Oh,
the heck with it, I'll give It to
you."
Most of the organization's
food purchases are through
competitive bid, however. But
such items as water pumps
to help a country establish
an irrigation system are nego
tiated because there are tech.
nical requirements to be met.
Big Buyer .
Powell figures .that he has
supervised purchase of close
to 25,000 plows and nearly
56,000 agricultural tool kits
for farm schools, farm groups,
rural youth clubs; close to
500,000 jars for farm women's
canning and preserving; 7,500
sewing machines given to vo
cational schools, village work
shops, community centers, for
training and group use; 77
mobile health units or enough
to examine and treat 1,725,000
persons a year; even modern
equipment donated to newly
trained midwivcs.
He once purchased two wa
ter buffalo for a flood-ravaged
village in South Viet-
nam and 7,500 pounds of pep
permint seedlings for a refu
gee project' in South Korea.
He said peppermint had be
come one of ooutn Korea s
best paying exports.
