There probably haven’t been many screenings of “The
Goonies” where the sight of John Warren Field draws a cheer
from the audience.
Then again, there probably haven’t been many audiences
watching the À ick while camped out on folding chairs and blan
kets in the middle of that very same football ¿ eld.
The Rolling Roadshow came to town Thursday as part of its
tour of the West, showing movies on an inÀ atable foot screen
in locations where they were ¿ lmed. About people came to
see “The Goonies” in Astoria, the eighth stop in the tour.

Any plans state, county and local police have for the preven
tion of another outbreak of violence by youths at Seaside over the
Labor Day weekend are being kept quiet this week.
For the last three Labor Day weekends, Seaside has been the
scene of youth disturbances resulting in thousands of dollars
property damage and scores of arrests.
A cool reception has greeted any inquiry into this year’s plans
for prevention of rioting in the coastal resort town.
