Don Cossack Chorus Communicates With Music in Concert , Our knowledge of the Russian language is limited to the word "nyet," which we picked up from watching Soviet represen tatives in action at the United Nations. But though virtually the en tire program of the General Platoff Don Cossack Chorus was sung in Russian at their Hed rick Junior High School appear ance last night, they still man aged to communicate with us and the over 400 persons who likened appreciatively. Using exactly the same fore rrrat they have employed for the Dixie Republicans Mapping Strategy For Goldwater United Press International CHARLESTON, S.C. (UPI) -Dixie Republican leaders meet here today to plan strategy for their Goldwater campaign and promised a warm welcome and cold shoulder to a delegation sent by Gov. Nelson Rocke feller. - South Carolina GOP Chair man Drake Edens, host to the 13-state conference, promised that the New Yorkers would be treated to a show of Southern hospitality, but added: "This is Goldwater country." . Other Southern Republican leaders agreed that the Rocke feller supporters would have little chance of winning South ern support from the Arizona senator. "The South is united for Gold water," said Wirt Yerger Jr., of Jackson, Miss., chairman of the Southern Association of State GOP Chairmen. Going As Republicans Michael N. Scclsi, executive director of the New York State GOP Committee, said that he and three other New York back ers of Rockefeller were coming here simply as Republicans. "We're not going down there as carpetbaggers to sell a point of view," Scelsi said. "Of course we're going to talk to some of our friends. We'll prob ably be asked some questions." Edens said the conference would have been restricted to simply talk of greasing the GOP's election machinery had the New Yorkers not decided to come. ' The South Carolinian said they could be expected to ac tively boost Rockefeller's candi dacy and Goldwater backers in turn would plug their man. One staunch Goldwater back erSen. John Tower of Texas learned that the New York group had sought hotel reser vations too late. He surrendered his suite for tonight so they could entertain prospective del egates. Other Prominent Figures 'Other prominent party figures expected at the two-day meet ing include Sen. Thruston B. Morton of Kentucky, National Committee Chairman William E. Miller of New York, and Bob Wilson GOP congressional campaign committee chairman of California. Winthrop Rockefeller, brother of Nelson, will be a member of the Arkansas delegation. The Friday and Saturday business sessions will be closed. They will include discussions of party strength in various states, fund-raising and organizing ef forts and other parly mauers. ."In short," said one Republi can, "we'll be working to de velop our political muscle." Represented will be Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Kentucky, West Vircinia. Tennessee, Ala bama. Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas and Texas. On Screen 7 & 11:15 P.M. THE GIANT STORY OF MODERN HAWAII! IJnnrir DIAMOND HEAD 2ND HIT AT 9:15 P.M. Outsider , JAMES FRANCISCUS imiin ' a mm rrw test 23 years, the group of White Russian emigres - resplendent in Cossack military costumes sang a program of 20 different numbers, including "The Happy Wanderer," the only song sung in English. March Onto Stage Two files of 10 men marched onto the Hedrick stage from op posite wings. and lined ud in a half-circle. Thev stood ai i. tention. their hands d uiiiu uieir oacKS. Director Nicholas Kostmltoff made a little sojourn around th back file of the chorus, pausing several times to blow on his pucn oine for the benef I nf ihn cutterent vocal ranges in the group. . . men. wnen ftosiruknff ready, two men in the front row snapped around to face each other, forming an avenue for the director to walk through to lemer siage to oegin tne nunv uer. He Stood Stifflv. feet trnwlhoi- The lower half of his body did not move durine the sinoinn His arms and fingers shaped the ouuuu oi me singing. Religious Numbers - The first section of the thrpe. part program was composed of religious numbers, including "Blessed Be the Lord" hv Tsnh. aikovsky, - "Meadowland," an old folk song, and the familiar hymn, "Ave Maria." The choral group features sev eral soloists, but-Ph. Franches coff, a tenor, is perhaps the best. He was particularly effec tive wiw me uuranian sonc 'Longing for Home." in Part One, and in "Sad Snows Over the Steppes," in Part Two. Selections were mixed in Parts Two and Three, ranging from Moussorgsky's "Song of the Flea," a war sons. "Th Song of General Platoff," the hero of the Cossacks whose name the group adopted, and several folk songs and ballads. Dancers Performed Three dancers nerfnrmnH briefly at the end of Parts Two and Three and drew a warm response from the audience. Easily the best of the three was G. Solosuhin, who elicited some sharp intakes of breath by flip ping a nan aozen wicKed look ing daggers from his mouth into a board in the center of the stage. There is a strange quality about Russian music. It seems to flow, rising and fading. aEain swelling, but unbroken, like the passage of the mighty Don Riv. er along whose , banks the Cos. sacks lived. In much of it, hap py wedding song and haunting ballad alike, there is a cry the emotional utterance of a people whose struggle for exist ence nas been constantly threat ened by capricious nature, out. side oppressors and internal dis sension. Chorus Now Aging The Cossack chorus is aging now a little too prominently here and there but though many of them have not seen their homeland for several dec. ades, they seem to remember it well. And their singing makes it clear that their feeling for the land Uiey will, probably never see again has not changed. Emi gres they are, but Russians still. G.H.B. .

Those needing Court Supports County Engineer The County Court yesterday supported Jackson County En gineer Robert J. Carstensen in his opposition to releasing sewer effluent from White City along an open ditch on Kirtland Road. Carstensen showed the court a letter he wrote to the pro fessional engineering firm of Cornell, Howland, Hayes and Mcrryfield, Corvallis. He wrote he is strongly opposed to "ac ceptance of sewage effluent from the White City treatment ponds into Kirtland Road drain age facilities as proposed." Carstensen referred to an Oct. 18 meeting with a representa tive of the firm when he sug gested that the effluent be re moved from the road right-of-way in a closed pipe to be in stalled as part of the White City sanitary sewer system. "At what point or in what manner the effluent is released into the natural drainage way would not be of concern to me as long as it is not done on the Kirtland Road right-of way," Carstensen wrote. He noted it isvlhe road de partment's responsibility to maintain and clear the large culvert under the road. This would be reason enough not to allow release of the effluent into the open roadside ditch, he pointed out. Weather FORECASTS Medford and vicinity: OcraMon a) rainv periods throuch Friday.
