20 THE MGIcXTXG OREGOMAX, MONDAY, !VOTEMBER 14. 1921 PARALLEL OH - FAIR Oelay in Building Bridge Over Willamette Is Cited. MISTAKE POINTED OUT Exposition Booster Declares Men . Who Oppose 1925 Fete Are Fighting Progress. "Who nere remembers the days of rJ sport on the waterfront when If one wanted to cross the 'Willamette in the center of the city, which was Stark street, ne stood on the tank and swung; bis bat In the air and shouted across th, stream to attract the at' tentloa of the ferryman?" demanded Ira F. Powers, chairman of the 1926 exposition campaign committee, in recent talk. He persisted In drawin parallels between Portland of th . present and Portland of the past, seeking; In this way to learn what may happen by turning; back and seem what has happened. He said opposl tlon to the proposed exposition Is born of the same distorted vision tnat op posed the building; of a bridge across the river. "The old Knott-street ferry landing n the west side at Stark street did not waste its energy by plying back and forth across the stream at regular scheduled intervals," said Mr. Pow ers. "Jt crossed only when there was business in sight. A prospective pas senger. In order to get service, had first to attract attention of the ferry operator. Bridge Is Oppewed. "When a bridge was first proposed, there was a storm of opposition. It was more than 1 years after the project was launched before the 'bridge was built. People laughed right out loud and asked why a bridge was needed. Why, they saia, noooay lives In East Portland anyway; no need of a bridge. This sounds quaint at this time, when two-thirds of Port land's population lives on the east aide of ths river. "West Portland people opposed the bridge it was said It would help East Fortland at the expense of the older city. It was opposed generally, too, on account of the cost of the Improve ment. Then, as now, anything worth having vu not worth paying for In the minds of a portion of the popu lation. Tolls Are Collected. "However, the forward-looking peo pie of that day-prevailed and the bridge finally was built. It was made a toll bridge, foot passengers being charred 5 cents to cross. It was opened April 11. 1887, and spanned the river at Morrison street. When Port land. East Portland and Alblna, sepa rate municipalities before, were con. aolldated In 1891, ths new structure was made a free bridge. "The bridge controversy raged for so long in Portland that it passed into tradition and even into the literature of the period. A poem, 'The Willam tte Bridge,' was penned in 1873 by Stephen Maybell, a house painter of that early day. In which he rather cieverly Jibed at the delay in the bridge protect. "In Its issue of January, 1887, the West Shore, a magazine of that day, printed sprightly comment upon the bridge In view or Its completion men In sight. This periodical was issued from the printing house of George H. Hlmes, now secretary of the Oregon Historical society. Comment la Published. "The West Shore said of this poem: "More than 1 years ago Stephen Maybell. then a young and untutored bard of East Portland of some genius, ventured the opinion that the progres sive enterprise of bridging the river mould be accomplished. " The theme was celebrated in verse and it has passed into the per manent literature of the vaporous land of Webfoot. The author, seized bv noetlo Inspiration, dashed off poem In which the prediction was breathed that the romantic Willamette would be spanned by a bridge. "The poem Impart was as follows: Behind th, pine, had aunk the sun. And darkness hung o'er Oregon, When on the banks o' Wlllamett, A youth was nen to set and set. And ,et and ,ln unto th, moon A wild, yet sweet, pathetle tune "Thejr'r, coins to build, I feel It yt. A bridge across th, Willamette." The flatboat drifted slowly e'er And reached, at last, th, other shore; Th, captain brave, eouraseoua aoul Flonad her to land with fiahtnc pole. When hark, from o',r th waves s strain That youth, that voice, that wild refrain "Tbey'r, solns to build, I feel It y,t, A brlils, acrou th, Willamette." fta winter rain, and summer flowers f aaaed on, with sad pleasant hours: Tet still sat on the river bank A man, bald-headed, lean and lank.

NEW BILLS AT THE THEATERS Again th, traVler came to see. And stood upon the granite quay, Caning long and silently Vpnn the river ruahlng by. A monater bridge now spanned the stream. And murmuring, aa in a dream "They've built a bridge, that's It. you bet. A bridge across the Willamette." "To my mind all this Is very Illumi nating. It proves to my complete satisfaction that every single for ward step, from the earliest Improve, ments to the present day, planned for Portland have been contested by per sons who, for reasons of false econ omy or otherwise, fought It bitterly. Mistake Folate Oat. "The present-day objectors run just as true to form as those of the early days and they are just aa much mis taken. "It is a grave mistake for the city and the state to heed the counsel of these objector who ever stand In the path of progress. I do not believe they will prevail. By this time, with the city's past experience, we should have learned they are false prophets and we cannot, must not. accept their guidance or follow their banner." Cranberries to Bo Exhibited.

Orphenm. BY LEONE CASS BAER. DRAMA like the "Star-Spangled Banner" and "Shakespeare" now adays needs to be played with pep. Too oftej) the necessary vervo is prominently conspicuous because of its absence. Vera Gordon puts pep into her drama. She ia soul-satisfying as an emotional artist. There Is a splendid technique in her art; but what Is technique aa against power and feel ing? There Is enough of range in her portrayal of a mother in her playlet at the Orpheum to justify the assertion that she Is a very fine emotional actress, with an unusual understanding of humor. Miss Gordon's work has not aft been on the screen, but it was as the mother in "Humoresque" that leaped into recognition. - Now she haw returned to the speaking stage for a while and la appearing in a little playlet. "Lullaby," which gives her excellent opportunities to display the pantomime and acting which made her role in "Humoresque" so memorable She adds to these gifts a delightfully rich speaking voice, impressive in ths dramatic momenta. In "Lullaby" Miss Gordon portrays a kindly, old-world Russian woman, the newly-rich Mrs. Leon Wolkewltch, recently owner of a delicatessen on Delanc-oy street and suddenly pro moted to wealth through the death of her husband. An adventuress has wormed herself into the friendship of the widow and is showing the one time delicatessen owner how to spend her money rapidly and- clamber Into society. A youth in whom the adventuress Is Interested calls, and the little com edy takes a sudden and unexpected dramatic turn, for in him the widow recognizes her son who was stolen and thought to have been massacred. From this point on the enactment is dramatic and even melodramatic with a sensational and gripping climax in which the mother sings an old lullaby with such tenderness and earnestness that her seemingly dying son revives. Miss Gordon's acting is of high ar tistic merit and significance, and her company gives capable support, par ticularly in the instance of Stanley Price as the son. The bill is an excellent one throughout, with dancing by three hand-picked wielders of wicked ankles. There is Joe Bennett, Mau rice Diamond and Jim Toney. Of these Maurice is truly a sensation. He is an acrobat set to music and his maneuvers defy every physical law. He la a clever comedian besides and is the pivot of fun in an act called "Snapshots of 1922. " Helen McMa- hon, a dainty blonde' Infant, assists materially, and a clever young lady, Florence Gast, as a dancing rag doll, occasions interest and surprise. Bennett la an ebon atmosphere with roly-poly eyes and a pensive air. He chats affably, sings a bit, and convulses with his shuffling steps. Jim Toney Is ths third fine dancer and his differs In that he burlesques beautifully the inevitable esthetic terpslchore and settles down into novel and lazy meanderlngs of his own. An interesting srlrl, Ann Norman provides an animated background and assistant for Jim'ej clever comedy. A pleasing turn is that of Charles Harrison and Sylvia Dakln along with a talented young- pianist, Billy Hog-ue. They call It "The Three of Us," appearing first as choir singers and later putting on a delightful hodge-podge of melody, steps and chatter. Miss Dakin is charming and sings In a flutey sweet voice, while Harrison provides genuine entertain ment In whatever he does, whether its Imitations and burlesquing or singing in his high, sweet voice. They have a snappy encore, with Harrison doing a Sousa while the other two play on Instruments. The Rios open the Mil in a novelty aerial act, In which Madame Rlos demonstrates her ability to sing while suspended face downward from swinging bar and acting as a trapeze from which the agile Rios performs. The closing act Is a return of the graceful Miss Robbie Gordone in character studies and poses in a spot light and other things. Hippodrome. BURLESQUE of a Parisian . apache dancs is the best sketch In the new Hippodrome bill. It is put on by Marrissy and Toung In an act called "Will You, Harry?" The ex aggerations of the apache habitual slouchy manner combined with a touch of Carmenesaue romance are ridiculously funny. The other parts of the act are also good and there was one absolutely new joke. There must have been quite a few Scotch persona in the audience, for Tom Brown's musical Highlanders re ceived hearty applause, especially after their bagpipe serenade and the execution of the Highland fling. There are three men and three girls in the troupe, and the Highland kilts and short stockings worn by the lat ter added to the attractiveness of the performance. Grace Ayers and her awanea brother gave a fine exhibition of whirlwind roller skating with con siderable skill and comedy combined. The brother, who is rather fat, prop videa the comedy and some of the kill, but Grace restricts herself to the fine points of skating and does some lightning stunts especially mer itorious. This act takes ths place of the , usual acrobatic team found on the programme and Is ratner a retiei. The other two parts of the bill are Hart and Evans, mostly clogging and some real dancing, and Jack Lyle, the Beau Brummel hobo. He tries to hide a good baritone voice in his humorous monologue that la mixed tth rhyme and reason, but breaks forth several times in melodious song;. His line is good. Gareth Hughes stars In the pretty little motion picture comedy "Gar ments of Truth" by taking the part of a country boy with a highly devel oped imagination bent toward ro mance and adventure. His escapades get him into all kinds of trouble until he Is cured by phsyco-analysls and comes home absolutely truthful. Then the village fathers find that truthfulness doesn't quite fit into the scheme of life they live and the traith teller proves a' disadvantage. In the end he marries the pretty girl who Inspired most of his imaginative rambles and truth conquers in a hu morously happy ending. Baker. . BY LEONE CASS BAER. ,T INGER LONGER LETTY" when XJ it was on the road as a starring vehicle for Charlotte Greenwood, that eccentric clown of eloquent arms and legs, depended on that young woman a." the malnsprlns and works and solid gold case. Charlotte Greenwood In turn depends for her values as comedienne on ber dancing and the amazing gyrations of her long arms and long legs. The plays Morosco has starred her in, "So Long Letty," and Its sister play, "Linger Longer Letty,' are made to fit Miss Greenwood's per sonality and length of limbs and gen eral scheme of architecture. Fitted out with music and dance and a flock of chorus maids who stepped into the she' Picture when Miss Greenwood loped off stage, the piece was a success. - If Miss Greenwood could make it that succesa with the cards all stacked for her, then it is all the more credit to Marjorie Foster, that she makes the Greenwood role interesting and exceedingly funny. The author, in telling the story, gave Miss Green wood plenty of scope to express her gift for original and grotesque char acterlzation and Miss Foster follows as faithfully as her own pretty round ed curves and graces will allow, the text and letter of the Greenwood clowning. She even sings a verse or so of the "Linger Longer Letty" bal lad, and registers violently with the comedy sense of her audience. In the start of the play Letty Is rough diamond of the kitchen with much need and an ardent desire for a polish. She Is a patsy of the pols and .pans, w Cinderella for the entire household, with a flock of sisters who are lilies of the field, neither sewing nor spinning. A fire of resentment has been smol dering in Letty's breast and it leaps to a flame when the boy next door, returned aallor, finds himself ignored and relegated to a back seat by the gay young majors and second lieu tenants and colonels of the neighbor hood. Letty takes stock of the situa tion and decldea that she and Jim will blossom out. leave the kitchen and the drudgery for others and get some fun out of life. One of the steps they take is an assumed affection for each other, which, of course, de velops nto a real one as the play progresses. When Letty, the drudge. has developed over night into a lan guid lady of fashion Into whose pres ence the majors and lieutenants and colonels crowd unreasonably begging for dances and favors, and when poor old Jim has come from his back seat into the limelight so that the other girls want him, ha and Letty drift into each other's arms while the orchestra plays the w. k. tune from Mendelssohn. In her handling of the title role nothing too complimentary can be said of Miss Foster. She dons a sad- looking bathing suit and wads her lovely hair under a skull cap and is a forlorn chrysalis of the kitchen, only to emerge as a resplendent but terfly In a gorgeoi.a evening gown, a feather fan and her radiant red hair a frame for her expressive face. She gives excellent account, too, of the comedy and the lines that fall her way. Right along with her in Im portance for characterization Is Sel mer Jackson In the role of Jim. His gift for yokel impersonations goes further than a mere ungainliness and awkwardness of movement and facial expression, and is carried out In his squeaking, halting speech and baleful glares. His clothes and Miss Foster's when she fixes up for the party are a riot and worth a para graph of mention. The entire company assists nicely, Mayo Methot and Jane Gllroy as sis ters to Letty, George P. Webster as their father and Lora Rogers as a widow next door who vamps the papa. Rankin- Mansfield and Billy Lee are colonels or majors, Leo Llnd hard Is a gentleman modiste who cre ates clothes for Letty after her revo lution, and Guy Kibbee is an indis creet butler. The kitchen scene Is so real the housewives all appreciate it Immensely. The cast: Mrs. ' Brewster .Lora Hogors Na.ncy Mayo Methot Mayme Jan, Gllroy Letty Marjorie Foster Mr Larkln Ocorge P.

All FRANKS has more troubles than a careless bootlegger In the leading role of "The Blue Elephant," the musical comedy entertainment which opened yesterday afternoon at the Lyric Franks, of course, appears as Ike Leschlnskl, the character which he has made so popular with Lyric audi ences. All the troubles of Leschlnskl start when he makes a trip to New York. There he meets a girl, who tells him she is looking for her uncle and starving in the meantime. Ike rushes her to the first res taurant in sight, which happens to be "the Blue Elephant," a tough resort where the waiters carry guns and a new bouncer Is hired every night. Ike Is seen leaving the place hurriedly after an unexpected official visit from the police. Iny Blotz, one of Ike's friends, tries to square things up with Mrs. Leschlnskl, be he succeeds only in bringing about a flock of compli cations. Uproarious comedy scenes follow thick and fast until Ike's com plete innocense is established. Two new players made their bow In the Lyric cast yesterday. They are Jewel LaVelle, who was a Lyric favor ite three years ago, and Anna Chick, character woman. Both made imme diate hits yesterday. LaVelle sang "Sunset Land" to big applause, and Miss Chick was forced to give two encores of her snappy Irish song num ber, "Doublln" Back to Dublin." The newcomers replace Eddie Mar and Madeline Mathews, respectively, who have left Cortland to fill other en gagements. A catchy song boosting the 1925 ex position is put over with a bang- by the Lyric quartet, composed of Har lan Thompson, William Ruhl, Jack Davis and Harry Levy. The boys wrote the number during spare hours in the dressing room. Other pleasing songs are "Jabber wocky." by Billle Bingham: "When," by Dorothy Raymond, and "I Love the Land of Old Black Joe." by Howard Evans. PRISONERS' GOODS i GUARDED BY POLICE! 353 New Identification System Is Instituted. DESK SERGEANT INVENTOR Thumbprint of Arrested Person Is Filed 'With Property Taken by City Jailers. Persons arrested hy the Portland police who may have large sums of money on them or other valuables are absolutely certain of having them re turned to them Intact, due to the new system of property identification which has been inaugurated by cnarles Cason, property clerk at cen tral neadquartera. This system, which has won high commendatiop from police officials throughout the country. Is now being nstalled In many of the larger police departments, according to Chief Jen kins, who recently toured the east. Thumb Print TsJkem. When a person is arrested in Port land the print of his left thumb is taken on a piece of cardboard by the jailer as soon as he is received at the jail. This inked thumb print is then filed in the envelope containing the money and other property taken from the prisoner. The property then is turned over to Sergeant Cason. After the prisoner is released from jail, he must then call at the property clerk's office for his property. There the fingerprint card is placed before him and he is again required to submit to the thumb print identification. If the print taken by the Jailer cor responds to that taken in the presence or tne property clerk, the prisoner re celves his property. Otherwise, he is held for further Investigation. Doubt Is Eliminated. In most police departments the prisoners sign their names to receipts for their money and property. A man arrested at night on a drunk charge usually has a much different signature after he has become normal, and there always is room for doubt if the prop erty Is being returned to the right person. But under the finger print identi fication there can be no mistake. It is the only scientific system of Identi fication which haa been declared infallible. It was only recently that a Japanese was arrested one night for some minor offense. In his envelope were several articles of jewelry and about $20 in cash. The next morning a Japanese appeared at Sergeant Cason's office, giving the name of the prisoner, and asked for the property. Out came the finger print card and the thumb prlntswas taken. It failed to correspond with that taken by the Jailer the night before. Investigation Instituted by Sergeant Cason then re vealed that another Japanese was at tempting to steal the property of his countryman. Under the old system he would have been successful. Problem Is Studied, During the several months that he la been in charge of the property. room, Sergeant Cason has made a careful study of the finger print sys tem of identification, and has now become so adept that he can teil at a glance If the prints taken by him cor respond to those taken by the jailer at the time the prisoner is first arrested. These records are kept on file at police headquarters, not only to pro tect the department in case some question should later arise as to whether a man lost his property, but likewise to assist the police in case the Identification is needed in the ap prehension of wrongdoers.
