Phillip Hanson, well known for his parts in Shakespeare plays, and for his entertaining one-man drama programs, was really more than master of cere monies at this program. He was moderator for the discussion period and gave very helpful stimulating. Truly a "sugar coated" educational pill. The last program of the series cer tainly should never be missed. It is "A day of review and dis cussion" of the four plays given during the season. In this year's program, the visiting critic was William Sib ley, actor and college drama professor from Sacramento, nuft Malt :; 4...r Wayne King and his orchestra will appeaar in Medford Wed nesday, October 9 sponsored by Providence guild of Sacred Heart hospital.

Vet, it was in Chicago's other big ; ballroom, the Aragon, that I Wayne King made his early j rise to fame as a dance band , conductor. He was entranced by fine, melodious music and had f a definite dislike for the loud I and harsh kind. At the time when the jazz ! craze for fast, hot music seemed to be the thing, Mr. ;King took a chance. He in , sisted that every other num : ber played by the then un i known orchestra at the Aragon I be a waltz. His insistence was backed by his ability and his superb interpretation of waltz music and the public's desire for something new combined to make him an immediate suc cess. Wayne King and his orchestra have played in leading theatres from coast to coast: from the Roosevelt hotel in New York j to the Mark Hopkins hotel in San Francisco.
