PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE With the holidays well behind us I hope

you are looking forward to the coming programs of the OWe. This month (Feb. ruary 17th) in the Ballroom of Herrmann Hall, Virginia Stanton will be demonstrat­ing and talking about "Party Hues and Barbecues."

During the OWC programs we will continue to have on sale the meats and desserts editions of "Recipes on Parade." Both books are highly recommended and if you haven't one or the other here is your opportunity to add to your cookbook collection . The cookbook chairman, Judy Glavis, 372-8553, will also be happy to take telephone orders. All proceeds from the sale of these books benefit the Navy­Marine Residence Foundation.

The OWC's annual spring benefit for the Navy-Marine Foundation is being planned. The chairman, Susan Thomas, has announced a Spring Ball set in the Emerald City of the Land of Oz. The success of the ball will depend on many volunteers and if you would like to con­tribute your talents and services please call Susan at 375-8554.

Under "Operation Participation" each month a member-at-Iarge had been se­lected from the OWC membership. Tem­porarily this is being discontinued. Instead we've initiated, on a trial basis, curriculum couriers. Each curriculum will have one courier who will sit on the General Board as a non-voting member of the board, yet enter freely into all discussion.

Officers' Wives Club (OWC) members ushered the old yea r out with song, listen­ing to the Fort Ord Soldiers' C horus and welcomed the New Year listening to Dr. Talcott Bates, pediatrician, who gave help­ful hints for healthy children in the New Year. The unique door prize for the No­vember meeti ng was a wooden sa lad bowl on a silver stand. Silver sparkled again in the New Year when a pair of silver can­delabra were presented as the January door prize.

"OPERATION VIET NAM" was a special OWC project for January. Books, letters and homemade delicacies were col­lected and sent onto the servicemen in Vietnam. A hearty well done and thank you to all who made this project a success.

The January board meeting of the OWC was attended by representatives from each Curriculum. The representatives arc known as "Curriculum Couriers" and can report the business of the meeting to each section leaders wife in their respective curriculum. The sect ion leaders wife in turn can pass the information on to the members of her group. In this way we hope to keep all wives well informed of the various activities and business of the OWe.

As members of the board we are pleased to be able to serve you and hope that our efforts have provided you with some worthwhile experiences. Elections for the new board are scheduled for April 21 and nominations for President , Vice President, Recording Secretary, Corresponding Sec­retary and Treasurer will soon be needed. Again, may T suggest the cu rriculums be thinking of ::tn elected member to repre­sent them on the Nominating Committee.

CDR . HOWELL ARMOR , USN RET .

Capturing 13eaut~ "I don't underscand modern art, but

suggestive art is very important." This is apparent upon viewing a few examples of Howell Armor's works. Nowhere are there J chunks of wood nailed together and titled, for instance, Life. But very much in evidence are precisely carved works of art, some decailed to the last hair, others merely suggesting a face and a form.

Commander Armor is married to the former Gene Campbell of Halifax, Nova Scotia. He is the father of Campbell Ar­mor of Santa Cruz and Althea Armor Rumble, wife of Cdr, James Douglas Rumble, CECj and the grandfather of a total of 8 grandchildren.

FEBRUARY 1966

• Wood In

..

Cdr. Armor first joined the Navy in 1917 as an enlisted man, In 1924 he graduated from Annapolis, and in 1926 received his wings at Pensacola. Through­out his 29 years of active duty he served on practically every type of ship but sub­marines. In 1947 he retired and moved to Carmel.

Armor working on his latest Madonna and Child in his basement studiO

It was during an overhaul of his ship in Pearl Harbor in 1940 that Howell Ar­mor first started carving, To pass the time while the ship was in dry dock, he enrolled in a course taught by Fritz Abplanalp, Abplanalp, at that time head of the wood

The Oesert ~donna, the swi rled wood represents the fierce Winds of the Egyptian desert

carving department of Gump's of Hono­lulu, immediately recognized the talcnt that Cdr, Armor has. He transferrcd Ar­mor to his advanced class and thus started him on a hobby that has now become a career.

According to Cdr. Armor, there are three things a sculptor must capture in his work to give it life ... the overall feeling of the subject and the stressing of every detail that accentuates that feel­ing; a simple, encompassing design which unites all parts of the sculpture; and a sense of movement, but gentle, restful movement. When all of these things are achieved, then the sculpture moves from the ordinary class into the extraordinary.

Madonnas are the subject that has been carved most often by the Commander, but he feels he has rarely done them jus­tice. They should have a special serenity that is difficult to achieve. His most suc­cessful one so far, he believes, is one of Sierra juniper, the Desert Madonna. It was purchased by Fr. O'Conner before he left the PG School, and has won prizes at the Monterey County Fair and the Church of the Wayfarer art show.

Armor has three favorites displayed currently at various Peninsula galleries. A 5 -foot overmantle of an owl with wings outspread has been at the Carmel Art As­sociation and Pebble Beach. It is of red birch, and is raken from the Mayan cul­ture. A t the Horne Gallery is a head of Moses in black bark oak from Formosa and Sabina, a head of a lovely woman. Sabina is carved of camphor wood, and has been waxed rather than varnished so the scent can still be appreciated.

There are other works of Cdr, Armor's on the Peninsula, notably the life-size fig­ure of Fr. Serra at the Monterey Public Li­brary, the main doors and Sunday School cross of the Carmel Presbyterian Church and a stagecoach plaque for the Wells Fargo Bank in Carmel. And some of you may have seen the Commander's carvings at various 0 Clubs throughout the coun­try. The bison plaque decorating the club at El Taro was carved by him, and the plaques of Navy wings that appear in 24

bases across the states are plaster copics of the original plaque he did for NAS Santa Ana.

A few of you may be personally famil­iar with Cdr. Armor. He has guided many groups of Navy wives through the art galleries in Carmel on Culture Vulture tours.

Besides wood, Howell Armor has work­ed in terra cotta, jade, ivory and stone. He prefers wood, though, because of the natural beauty and life in the coloring and texture. "With wood/' he says, "the fig­ure is inside the block. You start from the outside and carve down to the skin but nOt one fraccion of an inch farther."

THE CLASSMATE

mantlepieces and chopping blocks. What­ever his choice, though, each one is finish­ed to perfection ... " I'm a stinker for perfection. detail and research."

Two qualities, in Cdr. Armor 's opinion, can make a work of art great ... if it tells a story and tells it well. and if it is pleas­ing to the eye. Two things that Cdr. Ar­mor achieves with apparent ease, that ac­tually sound very simple ... until you try it.

USNPGS Little Theatre Picks "Guys and Dolls" for Spring

"Guys and Dolls/' a musical comedy described as "one of the triumphs of our musical theater" and first produced in 1950, has been chosen by rhe PG School Little Theater group for its spring produc­tion.

Adapted from stories and characters by Damon Runyon, "Guys and Dolls" was put into musical comedy idiom by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows with music and lyrics by Frank Locsser. Songs include romant ic ballads: "I've Never Been in Lovc Before," "I'll Know"j one of the wittiest songs in musical comedy, "Ade­laidc's Lament"j two nightclub routines: " T ake Back Your Mink," "A Bushel and a Peck" j the title song and several others of equal renown.

The Little Theater's production of "Guys and Dolls" is slated to open on March 25 in King Hall, with subsequent performances on M:uch 26 and April 1 and 2. Tickets wi ll be $2.00 per person and, with a special group-rate, $1.50 per person.

Producing the show will be Mr. Fred Terman, professor in the electrical engi­neering department at the school. The Director is Mrs. Rhea Diveley, who is no newcomer to the Little Theater. She has previously directcd the Theater's produc­tions of "Boy Friend" and "Annie Get Your Gun." A well known personality of the Monterey Peninsula, Richard C. Sheere has taken the job of Musical Direc­tor, and Mr. Dale Lesler, described as al­ways will ing ro rackle a big job (he did the choreography for the last production, "Camelot"), is Choreographer.

At story deadline, tryouts for "Guys and Dolls" had not started, but the first session was schedu led for 1 0 J:lOuary in King H:.111. There is a probability that mOSt of the cast will have been chosen when this story reaches the readers, but spokesmen of the Little Theater group urge those interested in any phase of theater work to come forth and volunteer their services. Especially needed are artists for the designing and painting of scenery. Fred Terman, 624-4905, and Pat Mc­Garvy, 375-8226, stated that they are standing by to enlist volunteers.

A new executive board was elected at the last meeting of Little Theater mem­bers. Chosen for president was Cdr. Donald Layton, who teaches in the AE depart­ment at PG School. Others elected were: Fenn Horton, vice presidentj Pat Mc­Garvy, 2nd vice president; Joan Horton, secretarYj and Alyce Price, treasurer.

S:llly Mitter is advisor of the group and its bo:trd of directors is as follows: John Boles, publicity; Lt. Mike Shortal, Music; Shirley Beers, m:tkeup; Lt. Bruce Albert , program director; Fred Turman, technical director; Sara Cra ndall, costumeSj Louise Overbeck, membership chairmanj Rita \X'ood, properties; and directors at large arc LCdr. Robert Kavanaugh, Betsy Holmes, and ETN3 Dennis Sratton.

New Manager, New Decor for Club

Standing at the new entrance to the club is the new manager, Corwin tv\ol l.

Photo by Jim Sawhook

The reopening of the Commissioned Officers' Mess (Open) at the Postgradu­ate School promises to be one of the most exciting events expected in 1966.

The management of the club is in the very capable hands of Corwin R. Moll, whose experience and enthusiasm ensure its success. Mr. Moll came to Monterey from Hawaii and lives at Pebble Beach with his wife, Gloria, and their son Mark. He is a graduate ot Michigan State's School of Hotel and Restaurant Adminis­tration. Before his separation from the Navy he managed the BOQ at Guanta­namo and Pearl Harbor Officers' Club. He holds the rank of Lt., USNR.

A preview of what we can look forward to is evident in the "Club News," a news letter and calendar being published monthly. It is available outside the office and in the Package Store. The redecorat­ing which was begun the first week in January isn't expected to interfere with the appetizing new menus. The dining room will operate as usual whenever pos­sible, and such features as king crab, lob-

ster and wine make the redecorating pro­ceedings easily bearable.

Mr. Moll is busy making plans for the reopening, which will include some really good entertainment. We can look for­ward to seeing some of our favorite enter­tainers here at our own club.

Bridge spaces are available now and Bingo will start again on Thursday, March 31. We can anticipate both being more fun than ever.

The exquisite new decor should be ready the first of April. Its romantic Spanish tradition will surely meet our highest expectations. There will be sev­eral new spaces and all will be carefully redressed. A glass patio and a formal lob­by will compliment the gracious hospital­ity of t ruly fine dining facilities. Ladies can look forward to lunching in a luxuri­ous atmosphere suitable for the most spe­cial occasion.

Ciassmatt takes the opportunity not only to welcome Mr. Moll but to con­gratulate him on his much appreciated plans. The best of luck is wished for the success of a lovely new addition .. . . . and to Mr. Moll in planning the brightest eve­nings 0 nthe peninsula atour own Officers Club.

The owe was not forgotten in the plans to redecorate the USNPGS 0 Club. Representing the wives on the board that choose the club decor was Mrs. Leonard O. Wilson. Zaida and her husband have recently left the Monterey area, but not before she was thanked for her services by Adm. O 'Donnell. A letter from the Admiral expressed his hope that she " .. . will have a chance to visit the Club and see the progress of the work over the next year or so," and assured her that " ... all of us appreciate the great con­tribution that (she) made to our com­munity."

Flowers-Ikebana Style

Hobi Hayashi puts the final touch on a typical Ohara school arrangement Photo by Julene Gainer

The Christm:u trees are long gone and the glitter of New Year's behind us. If we were Midshipmen at the Naval Academy we'd be slogging around in the "Dark Ages." Instead, we're slogging around La Mesa, the house is looking dull ... after all, how excited can you get about Wash­ington 's birthday? Well, you can't change the seasons. so how about changing your outlook? Ikebana, the J apanese version of flower arranging, is something that can do it. This ancient art originated as a function of priests, centuries ago. The ar­rangements were done by them and used as altar pieces. You don't have an altar in the house that needs decorating? Well, I didn't and I still don't. but fortunately this art is very manageable and compat­ible with any decor.

There arc as many schools of each class of flower arranging as there are of bridge, and Ikebana is no exception. One of the oldest of the modern schools, and probably best known outside of Japan, is the Ohara school. The Ohara school, in Tokyo, is now considered qui t e conservative. When it was founded, its use of flat containers was thought outrageous ... though the flat containers that are now seen

Contact Lens Specia list

in the displays of most of the other schools are proof of the soundness of that theme. Ho-on Ohara, the present master of the school is the grandson of the founder.

But what if your husband's not sending you to Japan? This is no problem, there is an excellent Ohara school instructor in Seaside. Many of us have already met her; owe activities lists her simply under "Flower Arranging," to us she's known as Hobi Hayashi.

Hobi is as fascinating as her craft­short, slight, and generally in a blue and white hopi coat. She circles the table as we work, shifting a flower here, question­ing or "Simply stating, "That's much too long," occasionally pulling a whole ar­rangement apart. "Very nice" is high praise in her vocabulary and not heard nearly often enough by beginners. Hobi learned the art in Tokyo, where she spent a year and a half following high school in Watsonville. She was attending a Budd­hist Youth Conference, then stayed on for what might have been called a finishing school. "Oh, yes, I even learned the tea ceremony," she tossed into the con­versation one evening. I haven't asked for a demonstration of that yet.

According to Hobi, the flower arrang­ing classes took hours. then, "We took everything apart, wrapped it in news­papers and took it home on the bus." Re­creating these arrangements may explain how she learned so well. However she didn't become an accredited member of the Ohara school until twenty years later. She came back to the United States, went to San Jose State, then married a man who became a civil servant in November of 1941. His job gave them the protection their citizenship did not: they were not shipped off to internment camps with

their parents and friends. After the wac, Hobi continued Ikebana, giving demon­strations to church groups, garden clubs and the like.

Fortunately for Hobi, the present head of the Ohara school made a world tour a few years ago and she wrote asking if she could be tested and possibly accredited as a T eacher, one of the middle levels in this school. Permission was granted. She made about seven arrangements, the Master said "Ummmm," or the Japanese equivalent, and continued his tour. Months later, she wrote an inquiry, a polite "What happen­ed?" The reply came back, she was ac­credited not as the hoped-for Teacher but as Professor. This is like starting college, dropping out for twenty years, then tak­ing an equivalency test and getting a M.A.

One of the joys of Ikebana is that very few flowers are used and usually not more than two types of foliage. Figurines are not used and Hobi discourages buying great amounts of equipment.

At the beginning of each session, Hobi hands out a diagram. If you rebel at the thoughts of copying a flower arrangement, and I do, relax. True, the proportions will be the same, and the general lines of the container, but the results are yours alone.

The first arrangement our class made was a three-flower affair on a round, flat container. Some turned up with pie plates (very exotic) and I used a casserole cover. Later, we discovered we generally owned something quite suitable-things from whiskey decanters to a heavy brass vase. Even my first attempt became a pleasing affair when it was transferred from the cover to an amethyst colored bowl I had bought in a supermarket.

Scenic arrangements, typically Ohara, used branching materials (live oak or Monterey pine). Later, in the hanging ar­rangements we used ivy and finally even reeds in the upright designs. In these last ones we seemed to ' spend more time wedg­ing a cross bar in the mouth of the vase to hold them properly than arranging.

Ikebana differs from American tradi­tional arrangements in two distinct ways; first, they are meant to be viewed from one direction only, and second, they are composed of only a few types of mate-

rials. Hobits most scathing comment seems to be "American mass arrange­ment." I bristle at this but on close in­spection, it seems easier to over-arrange a large number of flowers and come up with an effect instead of a pleasing arrange­ment.

If you enjoy flowers and color and are reconciled to never having a lavish gar­den and baskets of flowers, this is a de­lightful way of making the most of a few blooms. There is an Ikebana exhibit yearly at the Monterey County Fair if you publicly want to compare your tal­ents with someone else. Hobi sometimes judges these classes, enters others.

So come along, if not as far as the Coun­ty Fair or Ikebana, International, at least to try some classes . . . and when the "Dark Ages" end and spring finally ar­rives, you'll be ready to greet the first flowers-pruning shears in one hand and vase in the other.

My Husband, the Folksinger When I first met my husband, at a

college basketball game in 1949, I soon learned that his dormitory associates con­sidered him likeable, but eccentric on two points.

First, he was so convinced of the prac­tability of space travel-real "Buck Rog­ers" stuff to the rest of us-that he be­lieved we would see men landing on the moon during our lifetime; and secondly, pure heresy at West Virginia University, a school struggling to overcome its "hill­billy" image, he was interested in folk music.

It is pleasant to find oneself at last in style.

I have personally enjoyed folk music be­cause it is a type exciting to the person who, as I am, is nearly tone deaf and has no musical talent! If you can't play, you can listen. If you can't appreciate the music, you can listen to the words, and enjoy their historical meaning.

For the nomad service family, the folk hobby is ideal. The instruments are light and packable, as are the LP records. Al­though mass communication has standard­ized most types of music, it is always in­teresting to see what songs a regional Hootenany will produce.

Our own travels recall memories of the steel drum bands and Calypso singers of the Caribbean; the old fiddlers of Galax, Virginia; the western music of Texas; and the sophisticated folk coffee houses of Boston and La Jolla. Other families have had equally intriguing experiences.

Folk music existed before the current twanging beatnik stereotypes; the best of it will survive its popularity. If it by defi­nition means "music of the people," then it is pointless to sneer at the proliferation of banjos and guitars: it still seems health­ier to play one's own instruments and lyrics, however badly, than to simply lis­ten to a professional's.

The new wave seems to have begun about 1959 with the Kingston Trio's "Tom Dooley," a new version of a cen­wry-old North Carolina ballad. The per­sonable young musicians became models for dozens of other Ivy-type groups. At first their material was such modernized old numbers as "Three Jolly Coachmen," and "The M.T.A. "; then new singers writers began to appear.

Part of the craze was probably a dis­satisfaction with the then most popular music, ear-punishing rock-and-roll. Part of it was a longing for individual expres­sion, a fear of being lost in a world of computers and automation. It is com­forting to turn from the problems of urban renewal and sing nostalgidy of "Green Fields."

The music, which was once thought of

only in terms of old sea chanteys, hill­billy music, work songs, and tcnder Eng­lish ballads such as "Barbara Allen," has so many overlapping classifications now that a good way to start an argument i.s to try to separate them. However, for those interested in browsing through dif­ferent t ypes, a few divisions might be: traditional songs, some of the best of which are preserved in Folkways Records

LCdr Frank DeBolt, recalls " The Good Reuben James" during an Impromptu hootenany aboard the USS Wasp.

and those from The Library of Congress; country and western music, with an am­plified form which is very close to rock­and-roll, and a more traditional style which is known as Blue Grass; the new folk songs, whether sung by individuals or groups; and Bob Dylan's new rambl­ing, hybrid style, known as folk-rock.

The "cause" music of the protest cats is not new to our history; some of our older songs chronicle the dissa tisfactions the Negro slave, the Civil War recruit, the homeless Oakie, and the early indus­trial organizer, who fought for the eight­hour working day.

Similarly, the new music expresses the social concerns of the present college-age singers, as they lyricize peace, conserva­tion, migrant workers, and civil rights.

Not all who sing such "cause" songs are beatniks; and the majority of the bea ts will eventually mature, and take a bath, or a regular job. But the best of the songs, such as Bob Dylan's "Blow in' In The Wind," will have dramatized some of our national problems as only this style of music can do.

The best guide to the traditional folk songs is Alan Lomax's authorita tive and readable "The Folk Songs of North Amer­ica," (Doubleday and Company, Garden City, N.Y., 622 pp, $7.50,) which traces their history, with lively psychological asides as to why the pioneer women liked "Barbara Allen," or how a British soldier dying in India was the forerunner of the stricken cowboy in "The Streets of Laredo."

lomax includes notes on some of the best military songs through the years, ending with a mention of the irrepressible collector of modern service songs, Oscar Brand. Here is his hopeful conclusion on the folk music of the future: "It is prob­able that not long after the blast-off of the first American ship bound for Sirius, some groggy crew member will be chant­ing an unrespectable ballad over the in­tercom. Behind the perspex of their space helmets the crew will join in the chorus."

Miss Barbara Blair, Field Representative of the Navy Relief Society will arrive in Monterey Area in late March to conduct the Society's Training Course for Volun­teer Women. The course, which will last eight days, from March 28th through April 6th, is designed to train Navy and Marine Corps wives in the conduct of Navy Relief activities.

During fiscal year 1964 the Society as­sisted 57,000 Navy and Marine Corps families with loans and gratuities totaling over $3,600,000 . With the increase in pressure on the military family due to the tempo of operations in Viet Nam, the need for aid to our service families be­comes greater each day.

The Navy Relief Society extends its services through fifty-two Auxiliaries and numerous branchcs locatcd in the United States, with additional offices in overseas locations-Balboa, Bermuda, Guantanamo Bay, London, Sigonella, Trinidad, Japan, Marianas, Okinawa, Philippines and Puerto Rico. The Society is administered from its Washington, D.C., Headquarters. However, the main strength of the or­ganization comes from the 5,000 Navy and Marine Corps wives who serve as volunteer workers. These willing women make personal sacrifices in order to extend the Society's aid to their fellow members of the military family who, for the mo­ment, are less fortunate than they.

The Postgraduate School Officers' Wives' Club has shown great interest ' in the ac­tivities of the Society. In response, the NRS has cancelled plans to conduct a training course in the San Francisco Bay area and instead will send Miss Blair to our area for this useful and interesting work. The local Chairman of Volunteer Women, Barbara Albers, and her Training Course Chairman, Helen Frizzell, anticipate that the enrollment for this course will perhaps be the largest in the Society's history.

Spools of 7hlfead to Unwind? Madeline Duggar is a newcomer to the

Monterey Peninsula 3S acc most of her students, USNPGS Officers' Wives.

While husbands arc studying formulas, many gals are busy studying fashion and design from Madeline in her Carmel schoo!. For the beginners it's perhaps just "sewing," but for those far advanced the school offers custom design.

Madeline :lnd her husband Ben came to Carmel for a visit , Once here they decided to leave their former residence in Florida and established a school in this area. Made­line's warm smile and friendly manner would put at ease the wife who has diffi. culty unwinding her thread from the spool. Her eagerness to teach and help her students is applauded by those in her classes.

In her teens, Madeline had decided to become an attorney, but meningitis struck her when a junior in high school and she was left with deafness as a reminder of the tragedy. Her father aided her in com4 pleting her high school education and with Madeline's determination to grad4 uate with her class the seemingly impos4 sible became a reality. The first time she walked after her attack was to receive her diploma. Perhaps most would have felt that this would be accomplishment enough, but not Madeline. She realized that she could never effectively appear in court as an attorney and decided upon a career in which hearing would not play such an important part. H er interest in fashion design and dressmaking through­out high school offered her this career. She began her work as a student at the Tomlinson Institute. After three years she graduated from the inst itute, and continued her work with postgraduate training at the Instituto Cultural de Ja4 lisco in Guadalahara, Mexico. Following two years in Mexico, she studied at the National School of Dress Design and Good Dressmaking Institute of Chicago.

Professionally, Madeline has worked in dressmaking, fashion design, illustration, instruction and training, merchandising

and fashion coordinating for women's wear in department stores. Many illustra­tions of Madeline Duggar designs are mounted on the walls of the school-studio in Carmel. In the past, she has sold her custom designs to individuals and often aids students in creating a finished gar­ment from magazine photos. One such dress was featured in a magazine and priced at $261.00. Through Madeline's help, the student completed the dress for less than $20.00.

At present, she is offering two types of courses. The Beginner's Dressmaking

A Madeline design, a blouson cocktail dresc;

-- ..-Some help at the machine is given to Sa lly H ines by Madeline

Short-Course, which runs six weeks with two meetings per week for $30.00, offers the student an opportunity to complete a dress with a rctail value in excess of the cost of the entire course. All classes are limited to six persons per session. The Full Dressmaking and Design Course runs for six months with two sessions per week which gives the student 100 hours of in­struction for $12LOO.

The studio is well equipped with sew­ing machines, pressing instruments, cut­ting tables :md dress forms. All these are furnished at no additional charge. Further details may be obtained from the Activi­t ies Chairman or from the studio in the Sunset Terrace Bldg. in Carmel, phone 624-9306.

Admiration of Madeline's work, and her enjoyment of teaching USNPGS offi­cers' wives, is evident in the friendly and busy atmosphere of her studio.

A scene frem the recent Fort Ord production of "The Fantasticks."

An evening in the theater is enjoy­joyment. fun and an evening out. We sit there, wait for the curtain to go up and get completely involved in the characters of a musical, comedy or a drama, but for the people that bring the enjoyment to us. it is more fun than just "watching." It means work, work and more work. The members of the Fort Ord Players know that and yet they are at work during the day, and at night another job is waiting for them. Soldiers, housewives and teen­agers are spending their time to bring enjoyment to many people in the Fort Ord area,

PFC Horace Upshaw talked about the problems they have in a community thea­ter; people are leaving to be stationed somewhere else, or get out of the Army, especially technical personnel, makeup peo­ple and of course actors; they need per­mission from the Special Services Officer, Sixth Army, for anything the group

Upshaw, a native of Michigan, went to University in Detroit and majored in Liberal Arts. He worked in a Coffee House Theater in Detroit, then was drafted and sent to Fort Ord.

Good interior decorating is lae good manners ... never obvious. Let's face it ... a room that shouts-" DONE BY A DECORATOR" isn't desirable. Instead, a room should whisper "this is the way the Jones family lives-<lnd don 't they have good taste." A RUDOLPH'S decorator puts "you" in the room. We labor long and search for to find just the right things to suit your personality. We even encourage you to keep treasured pieces of family furniture-because they reflect your way of life.
