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.

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.

For Tudor
Guild Fair
An appeal was sent out to
day by Mrs. Elliott B. Mac
Cracken, president of the Tu
dor Guild of the Oregon
Shakespearean festival, re
questing books for the annual
Tudor Guild Book fair.
The Book fair, scheduled to
open July 22 in the Stump
Art gallery in Ashland, is one
of the major projects of the
organization. Patrons of the
fair not only purchase books
at very low prices, they help
support the Tudor Guild
scholarship fund which pro
vides board and room scholar
ships for actors, dancers, and
technicians of the festival, the
Guild president pointed out.
All types of books are need
ed and all that is requested is
that they be in good condition.
Books will be accepted im
mediately by the Guild. Don
ors need only call Mrs. Ed
ward Fitzpatrick at 482-2103
in Ashland or Mrs. William
Purdy at 482-4507, also in
Ashland, and arrangments can
be completed for picking up
the books.

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.

other members of my Ameri
can Heritage association study
group attended a ballet at
the Escorial. 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.
