Starting Wednesday, 9 a.m. ffli The two of us came home from our vacation early In order that we could get the garden and house under control before Potpourri returned to the routine of deadlines at the news room and Pappy to the gun shop. It s a good thing we did, too. A kind friend did a fine Job or watering while we were off touring in the hinterland, but pulling weeds and mowing the lawn weren t in the agreement. Somehow or the other, Pappy seems to be better at keep ing the weeds out of the vegetable garden than his spouse docs with the flowers. When we went out to the plot Friday morning the sight that greeted this gardener was a fright ening one. We could barely find the petunias, new snap dragon plants and marigolds. Even the larger plants, such as cosmos and larkspur, were crowded, and a couple of presumptous morning glory plants had twined themselves around some siurdy chrysanthemums. For three solid hours we cut, pulled and hoed and after a time we began to decide that maybe the case wasn t hope less. Actually, we really enjoyed the morning - why is it that some hard work isn't really work after all? Three hours of ironing - not nearly such hard work, would have put us in a bad humor for a week, while we glowed with satisfaction when the weeding was done. We detest to iron and are eternally grateful that the wonder fabrics of which so much clothing is made now require little or no ironing. At the insistence of the younger members of the family. Pappy and Potpourri went night-clubbing while in Spokane. Not too long ago we took a dim view of night clubs but like a lot of other Individuals, we were disapproving of something about which we had no first hand experience. After the "hungry 1 ' in San Francisco and Opus I in Spokane, we're about to change our mind. Opus I, located in a not very attractive part of the city, Is one of the new entertainment ventures in Spokane and seems to be catching on. Like the hungry i, the place isn't very imposing at first giance-the room one enters off the street is nothing more than an ordinary bar and the second room is filled with booths and tables with the tops fastened to kegs, something rather commonplace nowadays. The dark walls are covered with contemporary art work -at least one piece was definitely interesting-and the menu is limited. But the music is what Is different about this place. Nothing but classical music is played and the night we visited Opus I we listened an hour to a violinist play, unaccom panied. The four of us enjoyed the music very much, and most of the other customers apparently did also. The violinist Is Ron Kilde, who played in the Lincoln High school orchestra, Tacoma, when our son-in-law Kenneth Coon, an oboist, was a member of the woodwind section. Ken supplied the violinist's background -he had been the national winner of the Horace Heidt contest about 1949 or '50 and his talent indicates that had he so wished, he might have been a concert star, But the drudgery and confining life of the concert stage doesn't appeal to everyone, and apparently it did not to this musician. He played with big-name dance orchestras for a time, did a stint on the night-club circuit and then ended up in Spokane where he and another musician, Richard Tatusek, eventually decided to see what they could do with a night spot where nothing but first rate classical music is played. Tatusek (we hope our memory serves us right) is both an instrumentalist and composer and Is on the faculty of one of the academies in Spokane. For his program that Monday night the violinist began by playing one of Bach's compositions for unaccompanied violin. ,Mr. Kilde plays with an air of abstraction, but the music ho produces is very good indeed. Other numbers were the Romance from a Wienlawski concerto, a Czardas, or Gypsy dance, the popular "Hora Staccato" and that old audience request number, "Flight of a Bumblebee." He also played a Swiss lullaby which was lovely, "Preludium in D" and an other favorite, "Traumerel." This violinist's bowing is exceptional and It was interest ing to have the performer close enough to be able to watch his vibrating hands. Between numbers he talked with the guests and finally yielded to pleas to play a "hoedown" num ber. This piece of music he had picked up from an oldtime fiddler who played "by car" and it took several sessions be fore Mr. Kilde had memorized it. He does not know if the piece has ever been printed or published or is one of those folk tunes spread from one player to another. When the violinist learned that we were from Medford, his face brightened and he said that for several weeks in IflSR hf hnri nlnvpH with tUa mil.. Ti.,i a--!- v. .. i ip.un iiiu hi xiiiii s restaurant. He asked to be remembered to Henry Fong and vim-is m me tine una niso 10 naroer dim rorter. Smiling widely, Kilde said the three men of the trio had patronized Mr. Porter's shop when they were In Medford. After ending their engagement in Medford, and moving on to a club in Reno, the three were seized with a whim one day and wrote to Mr. Porter saying they wished he would come to Reno and cut their hair - that he was better than the Nevada barbers. To their surprise and delight, Mr. Porter showed up In a few days, bringing his barbering tools. - OS.

Riveniee Need Books For Tudor Guild Fair An appeal was sent out to day by Mrs. Elliott B.

Medford Teacher Writes Of Experiences in Spain (Editor's Notet Dick Car ter, Medford. foreign lan guage instructor at Hedrick Junior High school, is in Madrid, Spain where he is enrolled in the Eurocenter Language institute, study ing the Spanish language. He was among other teach ers in this country selected for the language and cul ture tour in Spain through the American Heritage as sociation. The classes will close at the end of July and the group may then dis perse and travel wherever they wish. Mr. Carter has planned to go to the Medi terranean coast near Valencia.) Madrid, Spain My main impression of London was that it was a terribly easy place to spend money. It also serves as a good starting point from which to take jaunts into other parts of England. My group from the American Heritage association made one trip to see the new cathedral at Coventry, then a couple days later we visited Strat- ford-on-Avon for a visit to Shakespearere's b i r thplace. Our guide's monologue was interspersed with phrases like; "he possibly did this, it is believed that he did that, it cannot be proven but we think." By the end of the tour, we felt we had paid a respectful call on a myth. Before leaving London, some of us visited "Old Bailey," but not on a day when the Keeler-Ward-Pro-fumo scandal was being aired. Instead we sat in on a hear ing about a barroom brawl. When everyone had refuted everyone else's testimony, we felt the confusion was worse than the brawl had been so we took our leave of that bastion of justice. Reminiscent The trip from London to Madrid was reminiscent of World War I days when the best coaches were marked "8 chevaux-40 hommes." Calais to Paris wasn't bad because of the shortness of the ride and the pleasant buffet car on the train. In Paris, how ever, the station agents laughed at us for presuming that the first class reserva tions arranged in ' London meant anything to the station people in Paris. For that rea son we traveled all night sit ting up in a compartment with baggage and peasants piled in around us. We felt a need for bathing facilities, more for our traveling com panions than for us. Two of the women in our group had their wallets deftly lifted from their purses. Rain in Spain It was raining when we reached San Sebastian on the northern Spanish border the next morning. The water our clothes absorbed while walk ing from the train to the sta tion was wrung out by the pressure of the crowd trying to get through customs. We spent the day alternately get ting wet and drying out while waiting for our train to Mad rid that evening. San Sebastian is a beautiful town on the seacoast about the same size as Medford but much more densely populat ed. The pleasant climate has made it a refuge from the summer heat of Madrid so it serves as sort of an unofficial summertime capital. The main street has wide sidewalks cov ered with mosaic tile and ter minates at a halfmoon shaped beach which is polka-dotted with beach umbrellas. For us, it was a lamentably rainy day. Our luxurious sleeping com partments on the Spanish train from San Sebastian to Madrid gave us recompense for our ill fare of the previous night. New Life Madrid is a new way of life. The people here use their homes less than we do. Any time they are not eating or sleeping, they are out on the street doing what they call the "paseo." This consists of finding the most crowded part of the city and going there to see and be seen. The paseo usually takes place in the cool of the evening and can consist of elbowing your way along the crowded sidewalk or sit ting at a table at one of the many sidewalk cafes to watcn other people elbow their way along. At nine or ten o'clock in the evening many people go home or to a restaurant to eat supper. They must come out again later, because the streets do not start to quiet down until about 1 a.m. You could stand at one end of Picadilly Circus and hear a pin dropped at the other end. Entertainment facilities are good here. The best seat in a theatre for either a movie or stage play costs less than half a dollar. The only thing dif ficult to get tickets for is the bull fight. Some of their laws here are strange regarding entertainment. Children and adolescents under 16 are al lowed to attend only special cartoon theatres, yet a child of any age can go into a tav ern and buy alcoholic bever ages. It causes one to wonder about our own standards. Bull Fights Our Fourth of July was celebrated in an interesting way. We went to the bull fights in the afternoon and saw the brave death of eight bulls. They also had the near death of two matadors who after being knocked down and trampled on, managed to get up and polish off their re spective adversaries in truly artistic fashion. After the bullfight, we had a four course meal for about a dol lar apiece, then went to an other cafe to be entertained by Flamenco guitar playing, singing, and dancing. Night before last, I and Michigan State , Visitors Here Mrs. Dennis R. Mitchell and children, Anne Paige, Chris topher and Patrick arrived in the valley last week from Battle Creek, Mich.) and are houseguests of her parents, Col. and Mrs Fred W. Greene, Long Mountain road, Eagle Point. They plan to remain until July 24.

It was the last performance of Antonio of the famous Antonio Ballet group which has toured the United States several times. At President Kennedy's in auguration, Antonio put on a command performance for our President. The perfor mance was held in the open air court in the center of the Escorial which is a palace built by Philip II about 400 year ago. Everyone enjoyed the performance and there were few dry eyes, left in the audience when after several encores and many ovaiiona, Antonio finally left the stage. Upon arriving home at about 2:30 a.m., I found every, one still up and talking about a fire in the Plaza de Toros. It's good that we went to the bull fights when we did be cause they will be closed for repairs the rest of the sum mer. Our groups will continue attending school here until the end of this month, then we go our separate ways for a couple weeks and meet again in London for the trip home. I didn't mind leaving London, but it will be difficult and sad to leave here.
