MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, Ml-DKORU. ORliCiON THURSDAY, OCTOBER 31. 1S63 rk- ir XL & . J o-:. "S" pX ' If ' -Lt J M IM Luce Says Mme. Nhu Mistreated NEW YORK (UPD-Former Ambassador Clare Boothe Luce charged Wednesday that Mme. Ngo Dinh Nhu has been treated "as a vicious enemy of our country." She said that by comparison Soviet Premier Khrushchev had been treated like a public hero during his visit to America. Writing in the current issue of the National Review Mag azine, Mrs. Luce defended South Viet Nam's first lady against charges that her government was oppressing Buddhists. Taking note of American criticism that the Diem family controls the South Viet Nam government Mrs. Luce said that because of the Kennedy admin istration it amounted to the pot calling the kettle black. She said that President Ken nedy had put "Bobby in control of our secret police the FBI" and had engineered the election of his other brother, Teddy, to the Senate. Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF- No New Breaks in Portland Slaying Ohio produces half the U. greenhouse tomato crop. INTO THE suggestion hex maintained for employees of the Illinois Central Hailrond was dropped one day the proposal that wages in one town be paid in cash because botn local banks were closed early on payday. The suggestion was ap proved, but the very first day the new plan went into effect a bandit staged a holdup and made off with the cash. The varmint was ap prehended and you may have guessed who he turned out to be: the em ployee who had made the suggestion! Vera Laurence was elect ed to a high office in the Pun-American Conference as a result of her story of a father drop and a mother drop in the boundless ocean who were intent upon teaching: their young offspring how to be a responsible part of the sea. After a month of intensive training the father ob served his son's antics witli satisfaction. He then announced to the mother drop, "I do believe we now have taught Junior eveiy thing he has to know. I hereby declare him fit to be tide." Somebody once asked the late composer Jerome Kern, "What is Irving Berlin's place in American music?" Kern replied, "Irv ing Berlin has no place in American music. He IS American music." O 1963, by Beimell Cci'f. Distributed by Kins Features Syndicate PORTLAND (UPD-The Mult nomah County Sheriff's office reported no new developments in the Nona Christine Jackson slaying today, after hopes for a major development in the case were dashed Wednesday. Reports that a break in the case might be forthcoming end ed about 5 p.m. when two detec tives returned from an out-of town assignment and reported to Sheriff Don Clark. Clark and his top aides had been hopeful throughout the day but had refused to give the de tails of their lead. The '28-year-old woman's body was found by two boys near Gresham Sunday. She was re ported missing June 11. Ihe decomposed body showed no obvious cause of death, and authorities are awaiting a for mal report from the coroner's office. 8 Policy, Strategy to Be Aired at Meeting PORTLAND (UPO - Policy matters and strategy will bo mapped Sunday at a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Inland Empire Waterways Asso ciation board of directors.

(UPI) Erick Friedman Gives Concert At Opening of Music Season By R. D. WERNER Last night Jackson County Civic Music Association present ed Erick Friedman, violinist, with Julian Bern at the piano, in its first concert of the 1963-64 season at the Hedrick Junior High School gymnasium. I This young man is more than I a violinist. He is a virtuoso and an artist. His style is much like Heifetz's, whose protege he is, and that is all to the good. That he is a serious musician he left no doubt by the choice of pro gram. Opening with the adagio and fugue from Bach's "So nata in G Minor" for violin alone he established uneqivo cally his command of the in strument. This took courage and an older more seasoned artist would have waited until a little later in the program to play it. Difficult In Sonatas Bach is difficult enough in these sonatas and to come out cold demonstrated considerable assurance. It was most beauti fully done and his tone was of the purest, intonation was im peccable and bowing most as sured. The "Sonata for Violin and Piano" by Cesar Franck intro duced Julian Bern at the piano. Since the work is mostly for the Diano it is well to remark on Mr. Bern's contribution. Here is a pianist who knows the mean ing of "Diano." The balance he maintained throughout the so nata was a real pleasure. Never once did he lose sight of the "melos" and hardly ever cover ed the soloist. A beautiful, dif ficult work performed by two sincere, inspired musicians. After intermission Friedman chose for his third offering a "Poeme Mystique" by Ernest Bloch. This music is of an in definable nature. It has none of the mystical qualities of Franck and none of the Hebraic, which are so much associated with Bloch's work. It is overly long and, as is so often the case with Bloch, it germinates and generates until is breaks beyond the bounds of the instruments employed. It was most expertly played. We would have preferred the "Poeme" by Chausson. Comes Down to Earth With the "Legende" by Wien iawski, Mr. Friedman came down to earth with the rest of us and poured out the lovely melodies in a flood of warmth and tenderness not often heard. This man can sing and he proved it without doubt in this music. Duncan, BYU Prexy To Address Meeting SALEM (UPI) - Oregon Congressman Robert Duncan and Dr. Ernest L. Wilkinson, president of Brigham Young University will head a speakers' roster at the 32nd annual Ore gon Farm Bureau Federation convention here Nov. 11-13. The Democratic representa tive will speak Nov. 11 at the general session. Dr. Wilkinson will be the Nov. 12 banquet speaker. The first University Press was established by Cornell Universi ty, and the year was 1869. And with the "Havanaise" by Saint-Saens we heard music for the violin by a keyboard mu sician who knew and understood the instrument and its singing qualities as they were not un derstood by Ravel whose "Tzi gane" closed the program. ror us the Ravel piece is not the happiest for violin solo and only displays the knowledge of a composer who knows its re sources from an orchestral standpoint. The "Zigeuner-wei-sen" (Gypsy airs) by Sarasate would have been more to our liking. It is an old chestnut, bul all the meat in it has not been used up yet. Plays Transcription For encores Friedman played a transcription of a song of Cas-telnuova-Tedesco by Heifetz and the "Scherzo Tarantella" by Wieniawski. For the civic music associa tion to have chosen the Hedrick Junior High School gymnasium (it is not an auditorium) for this season's concerts is not in the best interests of the performers or auditors. The acoustical shell does not help much and the seat ing is not conducive to an en joyable evening. Now is the time for the association to get out and work for a decent real auditorium. To have six basketball baskets hanging from the ceiling over the people's heads is a little more than some can take. Med fordites are generous and re spond to calls for help for the sick and neglected but it seems that a need is here for the well who need some place to feed their souls in the realm of mu- Blustery Storm Strikes Central Plains Section By United Press International A blustery fall storm brewed over the Central Plains today and heavy snow fell in Colora do and Wyoming. The temperature dipped to 13 degrees at Ely, Nev. Both Tal lahassee and Ocala, Fla., re corded 32-degree readings. . Seven inches of snow fell dur ing the night at Leadville, Colo., more than 2 inches were re ported at Lander, Wyo. Up to 3 inches of snow fell in eastern Maine. The weather bureau said the storm which brought rain and thundershowers to the plains "gave indications of spoiling the all hallows day for many sections of the country." The new moisture did little to ease the serious drought situa tion from inland New England to Texas. A forest fire raged out of con trol at Arkansas' Ouachita Na tional Forest today. More than 300 men fought the wind whipped flames during the night and 200 more were to join the battle today. By morning' the fire had destroyed 7,000 acres of timber.
