A lesson on "Food for Enter- in last week's Sunday paper in which Dr. Goldhammer recom mended a 6-2-2-2 plan for the Medford schools. His reaction was that it must have been devised to maintain current athletic ad vantages, and that there would be little else to favor it. I wonder if anyone in the newsroom agrees. Can't they find a location somewhere in Medford for a new three-year high school which won't divide- the city between the haves and the have-nots? "And has anyone pointed out in letters or editorials that the 'educational frills' which the very vocal anti-tax people are com plaining about are kept in the program to please the parents and that such things as uniforms, bus transportation to games and dances always are paid for from student body funds, which come from the pockets of parents rather than taxpayers who don't have children in school? "At least they are if Oregon schools are like Washington schools in that respect. The reason for the annual PTA carnival every year is that it is illegal to use tax money to buy any kind of uniforms, and athletics don't even earn enough to support such things in the smaller schools around here. "There are a lot of other things which must be supported from student body funds, and in some districts which insist on turning down levies year alter year, they even buy textbooks with those funds. Can't you just hear the howl of rage that would go up if the schools proposed to replace athletic events between schools with an intramural program which would involve all the students in each school just within the school? It would undoubtedly be called undemocratic." She also wrote that her busy husband has been spending a lot of time working on routines for football shows and preparing a concert for the Spokane Interstate fair, was taking his band to Washington State university (or Band Day, and planning enter tainment for the PTA carnival. He rehearses and plays two or three nights a week with the Spokane Symphony and the Civic band, and she added that the orchestra would play for the Cham pagne ball being given to raise funds for the orchestra. The champagne party, or a similar function, is a favorite fund raising device throughout the land. With wine, cocktails and food, people can be induced to open their pocketbooks and give financial aid to symphony orchestras, art museums and worthy institutions. Of course, this is not always necessary. A number of Rogue valley men and women have bought $10 patrons' tickets for the coming concert of the Portland Symphony orchestra without so much as a sip of wine or even a hamburger in return. These per sons are looking forward to an evening of first-rate music Wednes day night, and also can have the satisfaction of knowing that they have helped to give the concert, in a sense. More than 60 patrons tickets have been sold, which is some thing short of the goal set by the sponsoring group, the Organiza tion of Associated Commuters of Southern Oregon college. It would be a great pity if the audiences are small for the perform ances here a concert of fine symphonic music can be a thrilling experience. There is no reason why the Portland orchestra could not become an Oregon orchestra, and tour the state each year. The party angle is not being entirely neglected. The orchestra will be feted at an after-concert parly at Rogue Valley Country club. It is being sponsored by the Peter Britt Music and Arts association, and even the holders of concert patrons tickets will have to buy reception tickets. The sponsors wish It could be otherwise, but there's that little matter of 70 musicians who will be guests. At any rale, Wednesday, October 16, will be a red-letter day for the valley.
