Toung productions In the territory of Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Mon tana, and will establish distributing facilities at once. "The Clara Kimball Toung produc tions," said Mr. Metzger, "are the high est priced, per negative, that have ever been put on the market and the forth coming features are to be of unusual merle I feel that In securing the northwest territory on these features, I have put myself In a position to bring the exhibitors something of un usual merit and to handle what is to be the most distinctive series of fea tures that will be shown. "The first release will be 'The Eyes of Youth.', which had two years' run on the legitimate stage in New York. Clara Kimball Young has In her sup porting cast Milton Sills, William Courtlelgh. Pauline Starke, Vincent Serrano and Garreth Hughes, and is directed by Albert Parker, who former ly directed Douglas Fairbanks. From this cast can.be gained an Idea of the strength of tne features to follow. "I will also handle through a con tract Just perfected with the Equity Pictures Incorporated, eight other sim ilar high-class productions, the first Katterjohn story. "Love, Honor and Obey,' featuring House Peters and an all-star cast." "In selecting Portland as headquar ters for my distributing enterprise, I am not only returning to the city in which I began my career as exhibitor and later as exchange man, but also I feel that I am coming to the logical distributing center for the. northwest territory, and the eenter which is des tined to see the broadest and most rapid future development in the distri bution branch of the industry." vei large- lv.: ACTMERELY CONFIRMATION APPOINTMENT OF MAJOR J.

May as Possible Commander of State Troops Is Recalled. The appointment of Major J. Francis Drake as commander of the national guard troops stationed in Portland as announced by Adjutant-General Stafrin Saturday, was merely the official con firmation of a position held by Major Drake since the organization of the new national guard units, according to a-u.ird officials. The action of the adjutant-general, however, roused In terest in national guard circles because of the fact that Colonel John L. May had been mentioned as propable com manderof state troops in Portland on his retirement as commander of the re organized 3d Oregon. Major Drake has been the command ing officer of the Portland battalion as the result of an election held at the time of organization. It was consid ered advisable by the adjutant-general to make his position unquestioned in order that there could be no doubt as to his right to sign correspondence and take care of other business of the na tional guard In Portland. The status of Colonel May, who re cently verbally resigned his position as commander of the new 3d Oregon at a meeting of the general staff of tne na tional guard of the state, is still s question which is causing considerable debate. Some declare that Colonel Mav's verbal resignation was verbally accepted by the general staff and that consequently ne nas now notning more to do with the guard of the state.. Advices from Salem are that Colonel May's formal resignation has not yet been received there. Watch Our Windows. r.
