The grand jury came into session this morning but promptly recessed until tomorrow because of the absence of one member. Yesterday afternoon the district attorney's office asked that the In dictments charging William Jackson Easter with assault with a danger ous weapon, and Richard Gray with negligent homicide, be re-iubmltted to the grand jury.

Tass described reports that the submarines were Russian as an "ab surd and grossly slanderous inven tion, calculated to deceive American public opinion." Tass noted that Navy Secretary John L. Sullivan told a senate com mittee last Wednesday that sub marines had been sighted which did not belong "to any nation west of the 'iron curtain'." The news agency said Sullivan "gave it to be understood that these submarines were Russian ones." It added that Sullivan's statement was taken up by "several American newspapers which are disseminating sensational rumors to the effect that Russian submarines were sighted near the U. 8. coasts."

March 30 One of southern Oregon's greatest boosters started south on Highway M this morning, leaving behind a section of the state alreadv tingling with excitement at the thought of what Is In store for them this summer Volunteer workers have even now begun a round of feverish actlvltv In preparation for an event which wont begin for four months not .until August 11. to be exact. The excitement was caused by i visit last week by Angus L. Bow rrei , director of the Oregon Shakes pearean Festival association, and the August 11 date, the time of the first curtain call for the 1948 sea son. Meeting vnth the local festival directors during a free period be tween terms at Stanford university, Bf-wmer conveyed to his Southern Oregon friends the feeling that the 10J8 Shakesnearean festival will not only be one of the outstanding eenti of the summer in Oregon, but of the entire West Coast. "Why. thev are alreadv talking about out plans at Stanford and other theatre centers on the coast." B'.wmer told the directors who met with him last week. "Following the success of our season last summer, we are certain to attract an even gi eater number of Southern Oregon during the festival season this year. Peoole are alreadv beginning to In clude Southern Oregon in making their vacation plans, just so thev can be here for at least several of our plays." "And -well have something to show them this year." Bowmer con tinued. "Our plans for the favorite 'Merchant of Venice" call for a new Interpretation of the part of Phylock which will make it seem like an entirely new play. Most of lust year's cast of the 'Merchant' will be with us again, as will the "Totrn who took part In "Love's La bel Lost," the other play which we win repeat this season. Also to be seen this summer will be the popular "Othello." one of Shakespeare's better known works. B-wmer hopes to bring to Ashland a new actor for the imoortant lead role of this play. Jack Hume, a graduate student at Stanford with whom the director has become ac quainted during his studies there this winter. A play not so well known, "King John." will complete the summer schedule. "It will be a real chal lenge to the actors to put this pro duction across," Bowmer comment ed, "but our reason for selecting this play will be to introduce the fitst of the writer's historical plays v.'!th the thought of presenting the complete series of histories over period of years." The director has returned to Stan ford for the spring term and will not return to Southern Oregon un til June 14 when tryouts and cast in will be held at Ashland. The 1M8 festival will open on August McCloud Workers Vote For Union Employes of the McCloud Lumber company yesterday voted to retain the union shop provision In their work contracts in all three divisions of the company.
