Arc Proud Those adults who are helping to make arrangements on be half of this United Nations agency state they are proud of children who want to help such a cause, directors added. When they chant "Trick or Treat for UNICEF" at doorsteps, it is hoped by those in charge that all will remember each penny which is dropped into the car tons will mean the vaccine to protect a youngster in South America from tuberculosis, or five cups of milk for a hungry baby in Asia. For a single dol lar, eight children can be pro tected from malaria for a year, or a child suffering from lep rosy can undergo a successful, three-year cure, it is pointed ' out.

MANOR-ISMS By ETHElYN "THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT SAN FRANCISCO!" We have read, heard and repeated that expression so often that it has become a hoary cliche. Nev ertheless, it is true! Especially true when one dazzling sunny day follows another just like it, with a light balmy breeze and "champagne" air another cliche. Our trip to the Bay couldn't have been better. Except, perhaps, we visited the Fairmont hotel's Crown room a bit too early in our vis it; because, from that vantage point we looked down upon a wonderful view of the "City," and, also, saw miles and miles of waterfront piers and docks and one only one smallish ship. A sad, sad sight when one can remember a fine harbor teeming with ships f;um around the world with flags of all na tions snapping in the breeze. Naturally, we saw no busy tugs, clanging loading cranes or gangs of men working around the clock to handle cargo, as in the past. I suppose we can thank the numerous, prolonged and costly strikes for this drastic change. And, thus alerted, we seemed to notice something amiss at the famous Fisher man's Wharf. The large fishing tlects were there, as always, but they were tied up and idle. True, it was too early for the California crab season (we ate Oregon crab at Tarintinos), but these fleets don t fish for crab alone. As far as the eye could see around that beautiful Bay there were no little boats bob bing about or sails flapping. How come, we wondered? All this made us look about with a critical eye and compar isons in mind, undoubtedly. The street stands of lovely flowers greeted us of yore, but without the many bunches of beloved violets; and it seemed to us that the busy shopping streets were not so busy. We missed the dense crowds of rushing, bub bling, smartly dressed, happy, cheerful people that we so viv idly remembered. The famous food spots were open and doing business, of course, but we fail ed to find the jampacked crowds at the places and at the times we went. During the morning and evening "rush" hours, we couldn't notice the "rush" on the streets, and there were not enough cars to prevent traffic moving smothly right along. We even managed to get seals on the ever dclignttul cable cars There were far fewer clinging to the steps and outside edge at any time. However, we keep asking our selves "How lucky can you get?" By landing early at Ihe head of a long line, I got the only two tickets turned back for the opera La forza del Des lino" and really excellent scats they were. I watched those be hind me when they turned away disappointed, of course, but their faces also registered a civ ic pride that San Franciscans would gobble up every opera ticket for every opera and long in advance. The critics raved and raved , 4 hoe alon OREGON EVANS about this performance, defin itely overworking the word "su perb." To us it surely was won derful. Leontyne Price was in glorious voice and the tenor, James McCracken, likewise, and all the cast lived up to the stars in singing, acting and in a very noticeable esprit de corps. The full capacity audience re sponded with prolonged ap plause and with wild calls of "bravo." They vociferously ap plauded everything, particularly the inspired and very new stage settings designed by Lcni Baucr- Ecsy. They really were beau tiful. Within my limited expe rience, I know 1 have never seen anything more impressive than the monastery scene where Le onora takes her vows. This scene was greeted with a burst of rnthusiatistic applause but, somehow, 1 had the feeling that a breathless, reverent silence might have been even more ex pressive and appropriate. Fran cesco Molinari-Pradelli, con ductor of the very fine orches tra, was applauded time and time again and deservedly so. What with all the applause and the endless curtain calls, it was a very long opera, certain ly prolonged by the entire au dience trooping out and back af ter each of the four acts. These parades provide an outstanding fashion show. At least three fourths of the furs were white mink and fox. And. ladies, we must face it, fully three-fourths of the dresses were long, some with trains draped over the arm when strolling. E're long, I fear, our short evening dresses will make us feel quaint and queer. In the past I can re member many beautiful Chinese wraps and dresses in San Fran cisco, but this night I saw but one Madarin coat. But there were many dresses made from India saris. One, never remodeled. was authentically draped on an authentic and beautiful young Indian woman. Certainly not the least of our enjoyment was seeing and be ing in the marvclously elegant Memorial Opera house, with its gold and marble and red plush. Between acts in the huge foyer the ever rising decibles of con versation sounded like the roar of mightly waters bursting from a suddenly collapsing dam. Officers Are Elected Earl Moore, Mcdford. was elected to serve as president of the board of directors for the Unity church, Holly and Haven sts., at a meeting at the Unity center, Monday night. Other officers elected were Mrs. Blanche Davis, Medford, first vice president; Mrs. Doro thy Bowcn, Ashland, secretary; Ry Bosworth, treasurer; Mrs. Ira Jones and Miss Carrie Lyon, Medford, members at large, and the Rev.

In the past the hospital oper ated as a single unit with from 2,000 to 2,500 patients, and the present unit system divides the state into geographic areas. Jackson county is in Unit 6, comprising Jackson, Josephine, Douglas, Coos and Curry coun ties. It is estimated this area will have about 300 hospitalized pa tients this year. These gifts, per sonal in nature, will be solicited from business, church groups and other organizations. Quoted parts of a letter earli er received from Mrs. Calhryn Springer, director of the Volun teer Social Services of the State hospital in Salem, read, "Christ mas in September? No, it is just that now is the time to be gin planning for the Christmas gift project for our patients. One of the richest benefits our pa tients have is the services pro vided by the people of the com munity to make life more meaningful here. "Because of budget restric tions and lack of trained per sonnel, your contributions will make it possible to provide for all our patients, especially those without family or funds who would otherwise be forgotten." During October and Novem ber the committee in charge of this project will ask members to help in getting to individuals and groups specific information as to the project. Mrs. Herbert Gifford is chair man of this committee and will direct the program. Officers of the association are, the Rev. Fredrick Evans, president; Mrs. Phyllis Pesenti, vice president; Mrs. Bruno Rath, secretary and Mrs. Chester Guches, treasurer. Mrs. Robert Minear, assisted by Mrs. Una B.
