New Sensation Is Experienced During Afternoon Concert
Ashland - An audienre ar. I f.oiino .mr,! u.nii c i.... r-i.. .. , . . ... ...
An audience ac
customed to rare and artis-
"i. penormances yesterday
rci'aiixg a new sensation
as Miss Gayle Sandine read
and sang the Psalms of Da
vid. Her appearance high
lighted the Wednesday after
noon Festival concert in the
Mark Antony hotel ball
room. The young singer has not
only a beautiful voice but a
radiant smile and an amaz
ing depth and intonation in
her simple reading of the fa
miliar Bible poetry. To her
own accompaniment on the
autoharp, Miss Sandine pre
sentcd the Psalms with deep
feeling, singing exultantly or
prayerfully, while changing
to the spoken word with
breathless pause. The light
background music she punc
tuated by striking a triangle.
The strangely moving pre
sentation was given an add
ed poignancy by the fact that
the slender blonde, blue-eyed
singer who has been blind
since birth, "sings unto the
Lord with a joyful voice,"
jubilant and reverential.
Prolonged Applause
Prolonged applause did not
lessen the profound sense of
worshipful praise. In contrast
ing mood was Miss Sandine's
encore, "The Old Lady Who
awaiiow a tiy, given in
hilarious animated tempo that
brought roars of laughter.
The Coos Bay singer was
graduated from Willamette
university in 1960 and in re
cent months has developed
her own technique of vocal
expression in programs rang
ing from children's ryhmes
and stories to Biblical read
ings. Festival musicians and
dancers gave another in the
series of semi-weekly concerts
before an appreciative audi
ence, repeating several num
bers and presenting some ad
ditional selections. Outstand
ing was a suite of allegorical
dances w i t h
background.
Rumour, depicted by point
ing fingers and peering
glances, was accompanied by
dance steps themed to the
subject, while Curiosity took
on inquisitive gestures, and
Earth became a solo of slow
ly circling arms. With float
ing ribbons Air danced light
ly, followed by Fire, a whirl
ing flame of banners, and Wa
ter, a soft mingling of chif
fon draperies in muted tones
of blue and lavender.
Polish Composition
A Polish composition of the
mid-1 6th century was a dance
instrumental j ing notes excellently suited to! sisted by Miss Lucille Mcli-
Elizabethan reed instruments.
Ashland audiences have be
come familiar with record
ers and cnoy their strange
tonality, so the trio and
quartet playing Fr. Escobal
di's "Canzona" and the Pol
ish 'Duma ' were accorded !
appreciative applause. Vocal
ists, instrumentalists and
dancers are sharing alike in
the universal acclaim given
the season's concert series.
Sunday at 3 p.m. another!
program will be presented in
the Caesar room of the Mark
Antony hotel under the di
rection of festival music di-
nat. Miss Sliirlce Dodge and
Miss Judy Of ford have been
in charge of choreography.

TILE SURVEY
New York (ITU American
preference for durable, easy-to-maintain
surfacing materi
als has been pointed up in a
recent coast-to-coast survey
of home builders, according
to the Tile Council of Ameri
ca. Of 1.500 builders ques
tioned, 80 per cent said they
expect to use more ceramic
tile in the next five years
than they are using at
present.
Freeman To Hold
To Cabinet Post
Washington -il'Pii- Agricul
ture Secretary Orville L. Free
man plans to hold on to his
cabinet post "as long as the
President wants me."
Freeman, who returned
from a month-long trip to Rus
sia and other Soviet bloc na
tions Wednesday, said he had
"no indication" the President
did not want him. Republi

Polaris Sub To Be
Overhauled To Up
Offensive Punch
Washington - IUPD - The nu
clear Polaris submarine
George Washington will be
overhauled, refitted and re
fueled to make it a more
deadly weapon, the Navy has
disclosed.
The job will take a year
and will cost about $15 mil
lion. It will begin next June
when the George Washington
puts into Groton, Conn., for
its first reactor refueling in
nearly five years.
The overhaul will include
modifications that will en
able the underwater vessel to
carry 2.500-mile A-3 Polaris
missiles which are 30 inches
longer than the 28-foot, shorter-ranged
types now in serv-
ice. It will continue to carry
16 missiles but the tubes for
them must be extended.
The dale set for the over
haul - several months later
than had been expected prior
to today s statement - repre
sents an extension of nearly
a year and a half in the oper
ating lifetime of the vessel's
original reactor core.
Joined Fleet
Advance predictions were
that the sub would require
overhaul and refueling every
three years. The George
Washington's reactor went
"critical" in September, 1959.
After sea trials, it joined the
fleet in December, 1959.
The Silo million submarine
was the first in a Polaris
fleet which now numbers 13
atom - driven submcrsibles.
Eight more are to be com
pleted in the next 11 months,
14 others are under construc
tion, and six are in the de
sign stage.
Navy headquarters shifted
the George Washington's ex
tensive overhaul to Groton
from the government yard at
Portsmouth, N.H., after the
nuclear - powered submarine
Thresher was lost with 129
men off Cape Cod, Mass.,
April 10. The Thresher had
just been overhauled at Portsmouth.
A country -wide delay In
submarine construction, re
ducing by three the number
of Polaris vessels to be com
pletcd in this fiscal year, has
also been ordered to allow
for precautions against a
possible recurrence of the
Thresher disaster.
Preliminary Work
I he Navy earlier last week
announced award of a S3 mil-
on contract to the Electric
Boat Division of General Dy
namics Corp. to prepare for
the George Washington's over
haul. A spokesman said to
day the initial contract covers
only prelimirary work.
Britii:). concession of a
Polaris mainterance base at
Holy Loch, Scotland, may
have been a factor in extend
ing the submarine's reactor
lifetime. The George Wash
ington was deployed overseas
in February, 1961, and has
not been home since.
Another factor may have
been that, although on con
tinuous patrol two out of
every three months, the sub
marine undoubtedly travels
at slow speed requiring less
nuclear fuel. Movement at
high speed would greatly in
crease the chances of detection.
Only the five Polaris sub
marines in the 380-foot, 5,900
ton George Washington class
will require such extensive
modifications.
The others in this class are
the Patrick Henry, the Theo
dore Roosevelt, the Robert E.
Lee and the Abraham Lincoln.
Early Versions
Later Polaris submarines in
the 410-feet, 8,900-ton Ethan
Allen and the 425-foot, 7,000
ton Lafayette classes were
built - or are beina- built
originally to carry either the
early versions of the Polaris
missile or the longer and
longer-ranged A-3.
The A-3, scheduled to be
come operational in mid-1964
and to replace earlier types
when sufficient numbers are
available, had a range of
2,500 nautical or 2.800 statute
miles. The ranges of the A-l
and A-2 versions were 1,200
and 1,500 nautical miles, re
spectively. The missiles ini
tially cost more than S1.5 mil
lion each, but the price tae
on all of them has now been
Drought down to about si
million each.
Retail fee Safes
Climb, Says Expert
New York-a'PD-Willlam T.
Jobe, executive vice presi
dent of the National Ice as
sociation, predicts that consu
mers will purchase more
than $100 million worth of
processed packaged ice in
1963 for the first time in the
history of the ice industry.
He said large quantities of
packaged ice also are sold to
restaurants, taverns and Insti
tutions. Retail sales of Ice last year
amounted to $90 million.
Jobe estimated that total
sales volume, including in
dustrial and commercial, will
be more than $225 million

Circulation af
Library Increases
Circulation Increased 42
per cent during July at the
branches of the Public Libra
ry of Medford and Jackson
County over the figures for
July, 1962, the monthly sta
tistical report revealed.
The increase for Medford
was 15 per cent bringing the
increase for the whole system
to 23.9 per cent.
In numbers, the increase
for the month over the same
period in 1962 was 8,416,
Omar Bacon, librarian,
stated.
Requests for library service
jumped from 155 for July,
1962, to 468, or 201.93 per
cent, for July, 1963.
The July statistical report
cover page carried a story,
too. A diagram of the libraries
of the county lists the 11 out
lets available to citizens, and
the total collection of books
at 82,000. Phonograph records
number 600, pamphlets, 22,
000, and periodicals, 260.
The branches are Prospect,
Shady Cove, Butte Falls, Ta
ble Rock, Eagle Point, Gold
Hill, Central Point, Jackson
ville, Phoenix and Talent.
Rogue River and Ashland are
listed in the 11 outlets as "co
operating," meaning that all
have access to the circulation
of books through the head
quarters library at Medford.
Daily orders from the State
library in Salem are also
available to all these library
patrons.
