Royal Orchestra Enjoying
Members of the .world's most
traveled symphony orchestra,
the Royal Symphony Orchestra
of London, are enjoying their
tour of the United States very
much but are becoming rather
weary of the constant strain of
travel and concertizing. Sev
eral men, interviewed' Monday
morning after an overnight stay
here at the Medford hotel, said
that the nine consecutive weeks
of the tour, which closes De
cember 1, are beginning to take
a toll and that everyone looks
forward to returning home.
A concert was given in
Eugene Monday night under the
sponsorship of the Eugene Civic
Music association, and many
local members went north for
the event.
The musicians had already
played in 50 cities. One of the
men explained that the group,
directed by Sir Malcolm Sar
gent, was acknowledged the
most traveled orchestra in the
world after completing a long
tour of Poland, Russia, Ger
many and Czechoslovakia last
year. The men in the group in
terviewed Monday said that
they were warmly welcomed all
over Europe, as they are in the
United States.
Russian Halls Best "
One ventured the opinion, sec
onded by others, that the most
beautiful and best concert halls
in the world are in Russia. It
was also said that "music is

explanation being that music I

not only had only juice made
from concentrates, but. "When
I ask for fresh juice in hotels
and restaurants, they hardly
know what I'm talking about."
He had, however, been buying
oranges from time to time and
produced one from his coat
pocket.
Another musician lamented
the fact that he could not see
more of this nation's scenic
wonders, although he was thor
oughly enjoying what has been
available along the route made
necessary by the concert sched
ule. He was sorry to have
missed Niagara Falls, the
Grand Canyon and Oregon's
Crater Lake. A companion re
minded him that everyone had
enjoyed the trip from San Fran
cisco to Medford he had
trouble pronouncing "Siskiyou",
but remembered "Mt. Shasta."
Proud of Orchestra
The men are obviously proud
of the orchestra of which they
are a part, and reminded the re
porter that it had been orga
nized by the great Sir Thomas
Beecham and that he had been
its conductor for many years.
One player made it plain that
the orchestra is not the London
Symphony Orchestra there is
such a group but it is now in
England and that the one tour
ing the United States is the
Royal Philharmonic Orchestra
of London.
The orchestra's director had
gone to Eugene Sunday, and a
few members had chosen to
travel up the California and
Oregon coast by other means of
transportation. The 70 members
who stayed in the Medford Ho

some 1.5 billion persons, are
undernourished, malnourished or

the chief home economist of the

little to eat. Some are starving.
Others in less desperate straits

sne explained.
Dr. Stiebeling was the key
note speaker at a two-day "Ad
vance in Nutrition" conference
at Oregon State University. This
conference is one of four sched
uled throughout the year to cele
brate the 75th anniversary of
the OSU School of Home Eco
nomics. Lunch Program
School lunch programs based
on food donated by the United
States now reach 40 million chil
dren in 91 countries. The school
lunch is often the only real meal
the children get during the day,
sne said.
"Not only does the school
lunch program increase the
learning rate of the children,
but it also encourages many to
go to scnoot in the first place,
Dr. Stiebeling emphasized.
School attendance in rural Bo
livia and Peru, for example,
has nearly doubled since the
school lunch program began.
some $341 million worth of
food was donated to govern
ments during the past year. And
children, she continued, received
three-fourth of all the commodi
ties donated under the Food-for-Peace
Program.
Dr. Stiebeling called for as
sisting the people of underde
veloped countries "not neces
sarily by providing the fish, but
by showing them how to fish."
As for giving food awav. Dr.
stiebeling said "it isn t easy."
It is not cheap for the giver,
nor is it entirely free to the
recipient. Some countries are
afraid to accept much food, lest
it handicap the development of
their own agriculture.
Obesity and dental caries are
two of the "trouble spots" in
today's nutrition.
Nutrition researchers are chal
lenged to develop and apply nu
trition knowledge that will help
extend expectation of life at age
50, just as they so "notably help
extend expectation of life at year
one."
The major problem of ulti
mate consumers in this country
is to select food in the market
with discrimination and to use
it wisely. In countries where
two-thirds of the world's popu
lation live, such a situation is
"but a dream," Dr. Stiebeling
said.
