14 THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, WEDNESDAY EVENING. APRIL 21, 1915. SELECTION OF QUEEN SHOULD BE SETTLED BY MOVING PICTURES This Is Suggestion of Port land Woman In Regard to Rose Festival Problem, AUDIENCES TO BE JUDGE X.t Eacb of tlia Dally Fapars Beciv XTofntnatlona Says Ob Wan; Othr Ideas Advanced, Choose the queen of the Rose Festi val by mean of the movies. This Is tile sufTR-pstlon of Ethel M. Oarrfck. 6522 Fifty-eighth avenue southeast. "I would advertise in The Journal that on a certain afternoon all young ladies passing; a certain point on Washington street would be photo graphed by a moving picture ma chine." she writes, "the resulting film to be shown- at one of the prominent theatres. The queen could be selected ly the audl?nc-e by tnclr applause from the film or in any other manner thought best." It is further suggested that the film bo sent to other cities as an adver tisement. Photo Idea Sug-greated. "From what I know of the feminLne nex," adds the letter, "most of the young ladies of the city would have business on Washington street on that day." Marie L. Cotter, 5&C Morgan build ing, suggests that the most inexpensive way of choosing a queen would be to have the candidates send their photo graphs or appear in person before a judge, who should choose the most at tractive girl for queen, and the six next most attractive for princesses. ' Mrs. J.Harwood or the Baron apart ments. Fourteenth and Columbia streets, suggests that the queen be a pretty Portland girj, and her princesses be selected from the various nation alities in Portland. "This. I think, would be kind, thoughtful arid effective," says Mrs. Harwood, "as I know the films go all over the world afterward." Daily Paper - Flan "Let the candidates of each na tionality seek help from her friends to pay for her costumes. I really think this plan would b the means of a lovely sisterly and brotherly feeling during the festival." O. Yates, 352 Forty-second street southeast, suggests what he believes Is the "best, easiest, quickest and most equitable manner to choose the queen," one that he thinks would give a chance to the many pretty girls in Portland who "under the old plan have no show of being elected because they do not have wealthy friends." Mr. Yates plan Is to have each of the four daily papers receive nomina tions, have the candidates for queen selected by lot and then voted on, bal : lots to be sent to the papers. .

WIFE IS MADE PLAINTIFF Frederick A. Xrfbs Defendant In XAtl Catloa Which Resulted In Dispute ! In Xouia Seal. A second Jury yesterday determined that George Sorenson was entitled to a Teal estate commission of 115.000 with interest and awarded Mra. N. V. Sorenson, his wife, $19,925 principal and interest in her suit against Fred erick A. Kribs; a tlmUerman.' Soren son had assigned his - claim to Mrs. Sorenson. The suit was tried in Cir cuit Judge Gantenbein's court. Sorenson sued Kribs for the amount and dismissed the suit on representa tion by Kribs that C. A, Smith, whom Kribs represented In the, deal, should pay the commission. Sorenson then sued Smith, wa- awarded $15,937.50 and lost the suit when the supreme court reverted the judgment on the ground that no. evidence was presented to show that Kribs had 'authority to deal wit!i Sorenson for Smith. v The commission was asked -on the sale of 7480 acres of Douglas county timber land, by Smith to J. O. Storey. The land was - part of the Northern Pacific grant. Sorenson, according to 3288 Free Beds at ; City Jail in Less ! Than Four Months Despite all the other cheap lodging houses, run by private patties for gain or by chamaDie institutions, the city of Port- land runs a hotel that probably has a record of entertaining ft larger .number of destitute guius than any of them. Ac- cording to John J. Keegan, night jailor at police headquar- ters, in a report furnished to Chief Clark today, from Decern- ber 26, 1914, to April 19..1915, 3288 men were given free beds in the, Jail. These men were not prisoners. They applied at police headquarters for a place to sleep and it was furnished them. This is outtlde the num- ber of. women, several hundred at least, who have been given sleeping .quarters by the police matron. - r- 1 the complaint, secured .Storey as. a j purchaser at a price of $187,000, but cmttt. ru n ' fnmnlete the deal. I Then, the complaint adds, Sorenson induced Storey to pay $300,000. Kribs denied responsibility for the commis sion and that Sorenson was responsi ble for the final sale of the property. He also alleged that Sorenson was to be paid by Storey and his associates. Bobbed by pickpockets. WMi wBtrthincr baseball bulletins at Tenth and Washington streets yes- , terday, J. W.
