She spoke of Communism and its in sidious infiltration.

Music Willed To Linfield By Composer McMINNVILLE - The Lin field College Music Department has received a large selection of music study scores and books from the library of the late Er nest B 1 o c h, internationally known composer who lived at Agate Beach, Ore. The donation was made to Linfield by the estate of Ernest Bloch, according to Milo Wold, Linfield music chairman. Mr. Wold said that this special collection will be placed in the music and art room of North up Library for student use. The collection will be properly cata logued and marked with a spe cial book plate. Bloch's music, which has been performed by most of the great orchestras and artists of the world, won him world-wide ao claim. He was also the recipient of special awards and interna tional honors from many mu sical and artistic groups. Critics have called Mr. Bloch one of the few great composers of the first half of the 20th cen tury. His long career as a com poser, teacher, and conductor left the mark of his genius on a large number of younger composers and performers who are now at the height of their careers, Wold noted. The musician lived in Oregon from 1942 until his death in 1959. He received an honorary degree, doctor of humane let ters, trom Limieia in ishh.

IToood Housekeeping NEED WJX MORE Sj SAID? John Eads (at left) and Robert Haworth, Medford High School students known as "The Kinsmen," entertained with folk songs at the benefit style show and card party held last Wednesday night at Rogue Valley Country Club. Jean Hart's store staged the show in a pre-holiday setting which featured pink and silver decorations, and John Lusk played the background music. Pro ceeds from the event will go to the Britt Music and Arts Festival Association. The Britt Festival, in Jacksonville, will be continued mm Good sometimes results from tragedies, it is often said. Watching the drama, of mourning and memorials in President Kennedy's honor as it unfolded on the television screen, we decided that one good which might result from his tragic death was that the people of this nation would be confronted with themselves, as it were. We would be confronted with our weak' nesses on one hand, but also our strengths on the other. Many were shocked and revolted by the murder of Lee Harvey Oswald, enacted in front of television cameras. A few moments later they were confronted and encouraged by the words of the wise and kind national leaders who eulogized the late President, and were proud of the President s No queen could have come through the ordeal of public, state funeral ceremonies (again in full view of millions by way of the television cameras) with any more dignity and composure than did Jacqueline Kennedy. With tears in our eyes and a lump in our throat, we silently paid homage to this woman and mother. , As the hours wore on we puzzlements. Why, we wondered, has been assassinated, but Lee Harvey Oswald has been mur dered? The dictionary helped by reminding us that the word assassin grew out of a secret order of Muslims that, at the time of the Crusades, terrorized Christians and other enemies by secret murder committed under the influence of hashish. The lexicographers added that assassination is violent murder, usually of a prominent person. We had forgotten the symbolism of the riderless horse follow ing the caisson carrying the President's casket, and of the reversed boots and stirrups, a touching sight, Explanations of this have been on newscasts and in the papers. The measured sound of the drums we found almost unbearably mournful at times, and we were glad that the announcers and commentators were able to maintain their dignified composure. It must have been difficult in many instances. - We will be most willing to return to normal living, for the tensions of the past few days have been most disturbing. But even routine life will not let us forget some of the poignant sights, sounds and words. We will not soon forget the picture of Mrs. Kennedy's bouquet of yellow roses, forgotten on the. floor of the blood-stained car; the sight of small John Jr., one hand held by his mother and the other clutching a little flag, or again as he saluted as the flag which covered his father's bier was drawn by; the sound of Senator Mansfield's voice in his unusual tribute, not only to the dead President but to his gallant wife; and least of all will we be able to forget the sight of Jacqueline Kennedy walking, with head held high, in the funeral procession, of Mrs. Kennedy and small Caroline as they knelt briefly by the casket as it lay in the Capitol rotunda, and of her black-veiled figure as she lighted the flame which will perpetually burn on her husband's grave. O.S. Russian Cleaners Said MOSCOW (UPI) Spilling soup on your suit in Moscow can cause quite a problem. In New York or London you'd merely send it to the cleaners. But in Moscow, removing a spot or getting a suit or dress pressed is a major undertaking for a westerner. Westerners here cenerallv hesitate to use Russian dry cleaning services because there are too many reports of suits and dresses coming back with buttons and lining missing. So viet cleaners remove them and sometimes forget to return them. Frequently, loo, garments come back stained, shrunken or mangled a frequent com plaint aired In the Soviet press.

Tips Given for Buying New Laundry CORVALL1S - One out of 10 Oregon families purchased washers last year and spent a total of $15 million on laundry equipment. About 70 per cent of this amount was tor replace ment of appliances. Bernice Strawn, Oregon State Universitv extension specialist says that many families who purchased washers in the early 1950s will oe replacing mem either in the remaining months of 1963 or in 1964. According to U. S. Department of Agriculture research, a washer can be ex pected to last about nine years. What's in store for cauipment shoppers? Miss Strawn says the big news in 1964 laundry equip ment (now in stores) is fully automatic washers to fit al most every budget from the 6 to 14 pound "extra large" washer. Shoppers should first consider types of clothes they have to launder. A large capacity ma chine may be able to wash 12 pounds of heavy work clothes, but not 12 pounds of such things as nylon curtains and lingerie. It's the bulk and density of the clothes that counts, says Miss Strawn. In order to get clothes clean, there must be enough .e to permit tree movement of wash and rinse water. A standard size washer may take care of some families' needs bet ter than a large washer. Should Sort Clothes ' Market surveys indicate that many washer users do not sort clothes as carefully as they should and are disappointed when whites look dingy or wash and wear are wrinkled. What happens Is that well sorted loads tend to be small, and all clothes arc dumped to gether into the machine, says New Spinet Planoi from ' $495 to $1800 111 North Central Phone 773-7538 ' f , , ; .,.'5 Use Fryer For.

Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Workman will be in structors and all Interested square dancers are invited to attend. Equipment the specialist: Many washers now have a flexible multi-water level control which makes it possible to wash loads from to 14 pounds without waste of water or detergent. One 12 pound washer has an accessory miniature basket designed to take care of items usually wash ed bv hand. ..Other features found on new washers include atuomatic dis pensers of detergent, bleach and fabric softeners, cold and warm soak cycles and sudsavers as optional or standard features. Improvements are also noted in rinsing, lint disposal and spe cial prescrubbing cycles for heavily soiled fabrics. Some of the less obvious questions shoppers should seek answers to include how much water does the washer use, what provisions are made for lint re moval. Will new dryers keep up wltn larger washers? Large capacity and speedier drying are men new features. Extension home economists in county offices have more infor mation on laundry equipment.
