Violinist
To Play
Wednesday
Erick Friedman, violinist, will
Music Association this week, is
give the first concert of the sea
son for Jackson County Civic
counted one of the nation's most
outstanding young artists. The
concert is set for 8 p.m. Wednes
day, October 30, at Hedrick
Junior High school.
The young man has toured the
Orient, South Africa and Europe
as well as playing in the United
States, and has received many
standing ovations.
A native of New Jersey, young
Friedman studied first with Ivan
Galamain and made his profes
sional debut at 10. His New
York Philharmonic debut came
two years later, and at the age
of 17 he gave a recital at Car
negie Hall. The New York Times
wrote of his recital "Mr. Fried
man played with confidence, in
strumental security, good mu
sicianship, secure intonation, an
utterly dependable bow arm and
serious view toward the music
. . He is a very gifted violinist
and should have a fine career
before him."
European critics have called
him one of the biggest talents
of our time.
A protege of Jascha Heifetz,
Erick Friedman recorded the
Bach "Concert for Two Violins
and Orchestra" with Heifetz and
when it was released, won ac
colade's as an outstanding new
recording artist. He is still in
his twenties.
The violinist, described as 6
feet 4 inches tall who looks like
a jovial younger brother of Rock
Hudson, likes to box, drives a
car and engages in other activi
ties sometimes shunned by vio
linists worried about injuring
their hands.
The artist's heavy schedule
for the year beginning in Jan
uary calls for about 80 concerts
in several countries.
Council Coverage Plan
Passed by Scout Council
Results of the vote on the con
troversial "council coverage"
plan at the annual National Girl
Scout Council session in Miami
Beach, Fla., last week were
overwhelmingly in favor of the
plan it was announced yester
day by Mrs. R. W. Grey, Med
ford, a member of the regional
committee for Region XI.
Mrs. Grey stated that the vote
was 2,439 for, and 359 against.
National leaders interpret this
as a vote of confidence for the
national board of directors
which framed the proposal to
keep "the wheels turning on the
project to put Girl Scouting ad
ministration in the hands of
fewer and stronger councils."
The Medford woman pointed
out that the national board is
composed of 50 members, all
experienced Girl Scout women
who have served as Girl Scout
leaders, troop committee mem
bers, neighborhood chairmen,
local board members, officers
and regional committee mem
bers. They come from several
states and cities throughout the
United States.
New chairmen of the regional
committee is Mrs. Elliott De
Forest, Seattle, Wash., who has
been active in Girl Scouting
since 1941, and on the national
board since 1960. Region XI is
composed of Alaska, Washing
ton, Idaho and Montana. About
51,000 girls and 21,000 adults are
represented in the region.
Local Council Opposed
Rogue Valley council had vot
ed against the plan in sessions
here and had instructed its two
delegates, Mrs. B. E. Culy,
council president, and Mrs. H.
E. Nulton, vice-president, to
vote against the proposal during
the national meeting.
Under the new plan, councils
will be consolidated. It was stat
ed at the national meeting that
the new plan will mean a trim
ming and tightening of policies
and procedures, and an exten
sion of Girl Scout activities for
more girls. Locally It has been
(cared that with fewer paid ex
ecutives, the task of finding and

Aims, Accomplishments
Of League Discussed
Aims and accomplishments of
the League of Women Voters
were discussed by Mrs. K. k.
Montgomery, Eugene, at a re
cent meeting of the Medford
League. Approximately 60 local
members and guests of the non
partisan group met with Mrs.
Montgomery, past president of
the League in Oregon, at a des
sert luncheon at the Red Cross
Building.
A former president of the Eu
gene League, Mrs. Montgomery
keeping volunteer leaders will
be harder.
In recent years there has
been a lack of trained women
for executive positions, and the
Rogue Valley Council has often
been without a paid executive,
it is now. Under the new
plan, the present Rogue council
will become a part of an en
larged council with headquar
ters in Eugene. In some parts
of the nation, entire councils
have withdrawn from the Girl
Scout movement and have be
come a part of other youth or
ganizations, or operated as in
dependent groups.

group throughout the United
States. She st r e s s e d the
League's interest in citizen par
ticipation m government and its
work as a vanguard in vital lo
cal, state and national issues.
For the benefit of new and
prospective members, she ex
plained the League's procedure
in the study of carefully select
ed items, on which members
gather "full facts, pro and con,"
before taking a position.
Approximately 135,000 mem
bers in the 50 states and Dis
trict of Columbia take part in
local study units and large
meetings, in action on issues
and with voters service. Mrs.
Montgomery praised the group's
varied membership, which she
described as "united only in the
interest of good government.
"There is no built-in opinion
or approach in the League of
Women Voters," she declared.
Women of all parties and shades
of opinion join in the group's
aim to promote political re
sponsibility through informed
and active participation of citi
zens in government."
As examples, she cited LWV
accomplishments throughout the
United States, from The Dalles,
Ore., where members have long
supported an adequate water
supply, to southern cities where
members have worked to keep
public schools open.
Within one year 244 League
made detailed studies of their
local government and 1,893 lo
cal city councils, boards and
commissions were regularly at
tended by LWV observers.
Mrs. Ogden Kellogg, president
of the Medford group, stressed

New Yurk 1 hat straight coiffure the nation's First Lady has
been wearing puts her "completely out of fashion" so far as hair
dresser Buddy Walton, style director of the official hair fashion
committee of the National Hairdressers and Cosmetologists Asso
ciation is concerned. Here he shows the "Dandy" coiffure which
he believes Mrs. Kennedy could wear most becomingly. The
NHCA, according to Mr. Walton represents some 70,000 beauti
cians and cosmetologists in the nation. (UPI) .
First Lady's Hair Style ;
Said Unfashionable
NEW YORK (UPD-That long
straight coiffure the nation's
first lady has been wearing puts
her "completely out of fashion"
so far as one influential hair
dresser is concerned.
"If she were 20 or 21, she
could get by with it," said Buddy
Walton, styles director of the
official hair fashion committee,
the National Hairdressers and
Cosmetologists Association.
"But she's not," he continued.
"And that long bob isn't be
coming to her. Mrs. Kennedy is
completely out of fashion so far
as I'm concerned."
Walton, 40, is a St. Louis
hairdresser who has coifed a lot
of famous heads including those
of Margaret Truman, Pat Nixon,
the late Eleanor Roosevelt, Bob
Hope's wife, the comedienne
Phyllis Diller, actress Linda
Darnell, and Rise Stevens, the
opera star.
He praised Mrs. John F. Ken
nedy for the elaborate evening
hair styles she usually wears-
Kenneth of New York, Jean
Louis of Washington and Alex
andre of Paris all have had a
hand in these.
But he called on her to return
to "a semi-short, casual cut for
daytime."
"She's usually a great influ-
ence on what other women
wear," said Walton. "But .this j
shoulder length bob won't catch
on." i
Walton suggested that Mrs. I
Kennedy could wear most be-1
comingly the "dandy", which is
the association's choice of hair
styles for fall and winter.
The Garbo Style
He described it as "a little
bit reminiscent of the hairdo
Garbo wore" close to the head,
instead of tapered. In many i

close to the nape of the neck,
a slight rise through the crown.
The hair falls three to four
inches from the temple, and the
line at the ends is horizontal
versions the ends are curled a
bit and swept forward over the
cheeks.
It requires little teasing, Wal
ton said. But for most women
even though the line is one of
only slight wave, a soft perma
nent gives "hidden support."
Walton predicted in an inter
view that curly hair is coming
back not a return to the tight,
kinky poodle of the 1940's, but
to soft curl.
"We're getting away from
that stiff, lacquered look," said
Walton. "And we always go
back in styles, you know. But
we give them an updating."
"I wouldn't be surprised to
see little girls in Shirley Temple
curls," he continued, "and the
Jean Harlow platinum blonde
definitely is coming in."
The association, which has just
concluded its national beauty
fashion show in New York, rep
resents some 70,000 U.S. beau
ticians and cosmetologists, he
said.
