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. O.S.
