Patti Page Approaches New Season
By CHARLES MERCER
NEW YORK AP - Four
months ago a discouraged Patti
Page was ready to quit television
She never talked about it publicly,
but her friends knew that she felt
the Patti Pace show was every
body's show except Patti Page's.
Today a refreshed and excited
Miss Page is on the threshold of
a new television season. Next
Wednesday (Sept. 24 1 her new
weekly half-hour musical series
makes Its debut on ABC-TV.
She declines to discuss her last
season's program on CBS-TV, crit
ics, except to say that "everybody

tried very hard." It can be said,
however, that' too many cooks
were spoiling the show conducted
by that broth of a singer ram
Page: her own ideas of how it
should be run were largely ig
nored.
Now, with a new production
staff, she says, "This is my idea
of a show. I know that it's quite
the fashion this television season
to say that you're having a show
with a no-format format. But it is
true of our new show. You'll sec
when it goes on.
"None of the programs will have
a theme." Miss Page says. "It
might be called a musical variety
show, but it s not a variety show
in the sense that I come out with
a guest and say, 'Let's sing,' and
then we do a duet.
Is she banning rock 'n' roll mu
sic, which some viewers found the
bane of last season's series?
'Nothing is banned on the new
show." she says. "But it definitely
is not a rock 'n' roll program. And
it s not just a musical series
We'll have comedians and other
guests who can't sing or play even
narmonica.
As with many other shows, hers
faces the problem of obtaining tal
ented and "different" guests
i
Always a welcome treat', for
family and friends!

"There's plenty of guest talent,"
she says. "The problem is less in
obtaining talented guests than in
obtaining sufficient money to pay
them."
A long vacation this summer
was a big help, she feels, in get
ting ready for a long TV season.
She and her husband, dance di
rector Charles O'Curran, spent
two weeks in Jamaica and then
visited her family in her native
Claremore, Okla.
County Court
Awaiting Bids
Insurance, roads, streets and
such matters were subjects for dis
cussion, largely on a preliminary
basis, by members of the Klamath
County Court Friday.
The court said it would enter
tain bids jfor its life and health
policies offered more than 200
county employes, a contract now
held by Great West Lite Insurance
Company.
County Judge C. M. Mack said
Great West, one of the anticipated
bidders for a contract renewal,
had agreed to bind its policy be
yond the present October 1 ex
piration date so employes would
be covered until bids could be accepted.
Klamath Falls Mayor Lawrence
Slater discussed with the court
possibilities of installing a traf
fic light at the intersection of
South Sixth Street and Wash
burn Way, an intersection bisected
by the city limits.
A delegation from the Stewart
Lenox Addition appeared to ask
reconsideration of the grade pre
pared on Cleveland Street, a street
now being constructed there. The
delegation raid some rises In the
street and driveway approaches
were too steep if the grade should
remain as it is.
I The court also has been Invited
to an Information Show-me trip
to Deschutes National f orest
the northern end of the county
next Tuesday. The trip, planned
by forest service personnel, would
offer commissioners a chance to
see progress being made on roads,
lumber cutting and recreation de
velopment. The court attended a similar trip
last year and plans to go again
this year.

FORT ROCK-Richard Schaub,
who saw the homestead era at
its height around 1910-1913 and wit
nessed the exodus at the start of
World War I, takes real pride in
the development of the Fort Rock
Valley by pump irrigation.
His own 60 acres under irriga
tion please him most. Sprinklers
watered 30 acres of barley from
a well producing 1,000 gallons per
minute. The other half of his new
development is in alfalfa which he
floods from a well producing 1,600
gallons per minute.
Thanksgiving night, 1909, Rich
ard Schaub arrived in the Fort
Rock country at the age of 14. Next
to the youngest of 13 children he
came west with his father to Spo
kane in 1907 after the death of
his mother at Leelanau, Michigan.
Living with his father in a tent
on the Hollie Swingle place near
Cougar Mountain was a far cry
trom lite on their 80-acre Michigan
farm. Dick recalls pulling wool af
ter school, his eldest sister card
ing, his mother spinning and all
the girls knitting socks and mit
tens and sweaters. Husking bees
are another memory, with 40 to
50 young people gathering to husk
then clean up the barn for dancing
when the work was finished
When he was old enough, Schaub
filed on a homestead just west of
the present home ranch of Mrs
Mahel Morehouse and Sons. In
getting started on his own Schaub
recalls several jobs he took. One
was working on the Bend to Crook
ed River section of the Central
Oregon Canal. After spending 10
hours a day at rip-rapping (lining
the ditch with rock) for two months
he had $40 to bring back to Fort
Rock after he paid his board bill

The county fire department was

family. Kenn, when it was sum

ihe houe inin which the VOV.O
had just nmod. after hung at
Klamath River Bridge for some
l!wo decades
public as a haven for the lore of
silent Westerns.
Here's what you'll, see It you
make the 25-mile journey from
Hollywood to Newhall: the Span
ish-style house Hart built in 1925-7
overlooking his 220 acres: West
ern paintings by Charles Russell
and James Montgomery Flagg
Hart s 39-year-old mount, King
Valentine: the actors gun collec
tion, makeup kit, etc.
Bill Hart was a sentimental
man. Before he died at 81 in 1946.
he said at his ranch: "To give
this place to the public is the least
I can bequest to show my appre
ciation for the support they gave
me during my long movie ca
reer." Now his wish is being carried
out, though a couple of genera
tions have grown up since he fad
ed from the screen. The reason
for the delay was a long and un
successful attempt by Hart's son
to break the will that gave most
of a $1,170,000 estate to the coun
ty for the park.
Although he is enshrined as one
of the screen's top cowboys, his
movie career extended only 11
years. Born in Newburgh. N.Y..
he was reared in Wisconsin and
-Minnesota when remnants of the
frontier still existed. Unaccount
ably, he became an actor and
starred in Shakespeare and other
classics.
He also did Western plays like
me squaw man and "The Vir
ginian" that led lo his film debut
cowboy in 1914. He started
at $75 a week, once earned $2,225,
000 for nine pictures in two years.
inougn he remained a nomilar
figure, the draw of his films de
clined after 1920. Theater men
claimed his movies were old-
fashioned, but Hart refused to
lake story liberties that he felt
true Westerners would laugh at
His last film was ' Tumble-
weeds" in 1925. He sued United
Artists on the claim that it wasn't
properly exploited and collected
$85,000 in 1936.
By that time. Hollywood had
long passed him by. Hart lived
out his years at the Newhall
Ranch showing occasional visitors
the trappings of his movie fame.
Legion Aux
Plans Meet
Arrangements for the forthcom
ing District 4 Conference of the
American Legion Auxiliary was
the subject of discussion at Auxil
iary Unit S's Tuesday evening
meeting. Officers of the organiza
tion's state department will at
tend the September 27 conference,
which will include a meeting and
buffet supper.
At Tuesday's meeting. President
Mary O'Loiuhlin reported on her
trip to the Camp White Domiciliary
and on the needs of the veterans.
Occupational therapy is used ex
tensively at Camp White and the
needs for this are many: Nylon
hose, wool yarn, chenille and
clean rags (or rugs: used ra
dios, clocks or any used electrical
equipment. The veterans also do
leather work. Information on all
the needs can be obtained by call
ing Mrs. O'Loughlin at TU 4-7962.
A report 'was given of the tea
for newly naturalized citizens, held
in the county library September 3
with Mrs. Blanche Gowen and her
committee in charge. President
O'Loughlin and Mrs. Lina Motsch
cnbacher poured and were assisted
by Past President Irene Poteet
and Mrs. Kathcrine Keep.
As a special honor and surprise
to Jennie Hum. who is a charter
member of Unit 8. a "Happy
Birthday" was sung to her with
Bea Van at the piano.
The meeting adjourned with re
freshments served to the auxiliary
and the legion by hostesses Anna
Bean. Alice Abbott and Blanche
Reldraine.
and bought some clothes. Board
then was about 50 cents a day.
Schaub also worked for the con
tractor who built the smoke stacks
for both the Shevlin-Hixon and
Brooks-Scanlon mills. Working the
air hammer, he riveted from a
cage suspended outside the stacks.
Later he fired the boiler for one
of the mills and was gone from
Fort Rock about a year and a half
in all.
Recalling one winter when the
snow was especially deep, no
freight could get through for about
two months. Toward the end of
the period, food was scarce and
George Michaelson, grocer, (now
Bend grocer) ran out of flour and
borrowed from some farmers to
supply others in need.
Among his contributions to the
valley was well drilling. In 1929
he purchased an old boring device
powered by a horse going around
and around on a sweep. A steady
reliable old mare, Jean, was used
on the outfit which made a well
about 13 inches in diameter. By
the time Jean died in 1953 Dick
had drilled 19 wells in the neigh
borhood including four for irriga
tion. The deepest was down 245
feet and the most he ever charged
for drilling was a dollar a foot.
Through the years Schaub ac
quired three half-sections of land
and dry farms 300 acres in addi
tion to his irrigated fields. He sells
yearlings as feeders.
The recent strip mining of diato-
maceous earth by Great Lakes
Carbon Company of Terrebonne is
on his properly which he has
leased to the company.
He joined the Fort Rock Grange
in 1933 and this year at the July
meeting was awarded a 25-
year-pin. In presenting the pin Ed
win Eskelin, master, stated, "This
pin has little monetary value but
with it goes our appreciation for
your faithfulness, congratulations
on attaining 25 years of member
ship and our good wishes for the
future.
