MARION, O., July 3. By the As
sociated Press.) Marion today was
carried back to the summer days or
1920 when President Harding's
"front porch campaign" was in full
swing, for not since that time has
there been such an outpouring of
people as that which occurred when
the town began the celebration of
its 100th anniversary.
Many Visitors Attracted.
The impending arrival of the
president and his address scheduled
for tomorrow afternoon attracted
many from surrounding territory,
determined to remain in Marion for
all of the three-day celebration.

figure here as a private citizen and
United States senator, he has never
appeared in Marion as president of
the United States and' the town is
determined to make the best of his
Initial visit since his inauguration.

lowed to obtain as much rest as
possible while here, no formal , re

STATUS OF MRS. THOMPSON
WILL BE CONSIDERED.
City Attorney Holds Member of
Board Does Not Have to Be
Resident of Portland.
The status of Mrs. Alexander
Thompson, as a member of the board
of motion picture censors, again "will
come up for discussion in city coun
cil meeting tomorrow, when a letter
protesting against her retention as a
member of the board will be con
sidered. The letter, written by a
citizen to Mayor Baker, says Mrs.
Thompson is ineligible to serve be
cause she does not reside in the city.
Mrs. Thompson lives on the Powell
valley road outside 'the city limits.
The letter was referred to Frank
S. Grant, city attorney, for an
opinion, and this opinion yesterday
was submitted to the mayor. It is
understood that Mr. Grant holds
that under the city charter there
was nothing compelling a member
oi tne ooara oi censors to be a
Portland resident, but that certain
portions might be so Interpreted by
city council, should it see fit.
Mrs. Thompson long has been a
storm center on the board and she
has had several clashes with Mayor
Baker. At the .present time she is
serving without appointment, as no
appointment was made when her
term of office expired January 1.
Under the terms of the censorship
ordinance, however, a member of the
board continues to serve until such
time as a successor is appointed.
Mayor Baker last night saiid that
he had not decided what attitude he
would take in the matter.
"The objection to Mrs. Thompson
appears to be a technical one," he
said. '.'Mrs. Thompson has been giv
ing good service, and unless Tinder
the charter she is not entitled to
hold office, I see no good reason for
removing her. I personally would
not remove- her, or recommend such
action."

ing under the workmen's compensa

BROTHERS.
ARE BIG SUCCESS
Portland Trio of Artists Is
. Chautouqua Feature.
BOYS WARMLY GREETED
Special Patriotic Programme to
Be Fourth of July Leader
.' at Gladstone 'Assembly.
OREGON CITY. Or.; July 3.
(Special.) Lowell., Patton,' pianist,
was welcomed back to Chautauqua
by the best audience thus far this
season at the big Gladstone assem
bly, and the popularity of this
Portland boy was in no whit dimin
ished by the co-appearance of his
brothers, i Donald and Gault, who
are singers of fine abiliiy.
-There-were those in the big audi
torium this afternoon and tonight
who knew Lowell Patton and his
ability with the piano, and who
awaited with some misgivings the
result of his work with his two
brothers, none thinking that three
such high-class artists could be
produced in one family.
Trio Makes IllK Success. -
But- the programme, segregated
into episodes and carrying the audi
ence through a variety of musical
memories, distributed credit equally
between the three Portlanders. As
a pianist, Lowell is every bit as good
as his many friends anticipated, and
as a vocalist he showed a new side
to his artistry that was anything
but displeasing.
The entertainment put on by the
boys comprises bits of opera, the
classics, old-time melodies, songs
from "over there," sacred and jazzy
numbers, interspersed with piano
logues by Lowell, characteristic
readings and steps by the other two.
Costumes . portraying the characters
and the periods covered by the songs
and stories udd a pleasing touch to
the scenes. :
Boys Get Cordial Welcome.
A feature of the Patton enter
tainment Saturday afternoon and
evening was the wonderful recep
tion accorded the boys by their
many friends after the perform
ances. They have been on tour with
the Ellison-White circuits since
April, and many of their Portland
friends were out to hear them. The
boys are the sons of Mr. and Mrs.
E. L. Patton, members of a promi
nent pioneer family of Portland, and
it was at the Gladstone Chautauqua
many years ago that the urge of
the public platform tugged at young
Lowell's breast, and it is with extra
vigor that he stages his perform
ances here. "
The act as worked out this season
has never been seen in Portland,
and the selection of numbers shows
careful consideration. Special music
has been secured for some of the
numbers and a feature of the entire
performance .is the introductory
work of Lowell Patton, done in
pianologist style, and carrying a
fund of humor and catchy phrases.
- Lowell WIU Tour Europe.
An interesting announcement,
made by Lowell Patton to-some of
his friends after the performance in
the afternoon, conveyed the inform-
action that early in the spring of
next year ne will tour Europe. The
reception accorded the brothers
after each performance shows the
great esteem in which they are held,
and from this community especially
they draw so many personal friends
that their back-stage quarters are
always crowded.
Hot weather at the Chautauqua is
not so troublesome as at places not
so fortunately shaded, but the great
trees and the profusion of gentle
breezes serve to cool the huge
throngs attending.
Lecture Is Intel-rating Feature,
Following the Patton brothers' act
last evening, a lecture on co-opera
tion between the nations was pre
sented by Norman Allen Imbrie, pro
fessor of modern history at Culver
military academy. In the afternoon
the symposium hour was devoted to
a discussion of the tobacco and
liquor evils, under the auspices of
the state Woman's Christian Tern
perance Union. A feature of the
symposium hours each day is the
appearance of the Theroux Junior
orchestra, an organization of 25
pieces played by young folk who
show the result of careful musical
training.
The Fourth of July programme at
the Chautauqua tomorrow should
make a 'big appeal to many extra
thousands of work-free persons
from the cities and country. The
morning and afternoon numbers
contain musical features, with Opie
Read, internationally known hu
morist and lecturer, appearing in
he evening. A fireworks display
will be seen beginning at 9 o'clock.
The complete programme follows:
