N GOLDWYN FILM
They knew what they wanted
and they got it. The single phrase
might sum up the theme idea be
hind Henry King's production of
"The Magic Flame" for Samuel
Ooldwyn which comes to the Ore
gon theater today for a two-day
run.
Throughout the entire 9.000
feet of film, Ronald Colman and
Vilma Banky are in constant pur
suit of their own dream of happi
ness achieved in their own man
ner and in: their own sphere of
life, and through a constantly
rising tempo of thrills and dram
atic climaxes, they finally attain
their desire.
From the first hundred feet of
film where the gay and carefree
atmosphere of the romantic little
Italian circus is established, to the
last fadcout where Mr. Colman
and Miss Banky, their struggles
forgotten, are back in the atmos
phere they love, the picture was
made as a blend of high comedy
and grtni tragedy.

First inkling of dissension
among delegates arose today when
Medford. which - asked for the
1929 convention, was rejected
temporarily, on the ground of its
geographical location. Members
from Portland and eastern Ore
gon stated Medford was not cen
trally located and this would
cause unnecessary expenditure of
money for traveling expenses.
To avert heated discussion, it
was voted to leave final decision
up to the board of managers with
announcement to be forthcoming
within the next two months.
Time of the 1929 convention al
so met with some dissension. The
committee on time, place and pre
siding preacher, entered a resolu

resolution was adopted, exact

AT IMPERIAL EVENT
TOKYO. July 12. (AP)
Flapper" dresses and low-cut
gowns will not be permitted at the
Imperial Coronation ceremonies
which will be held at Kyoto next
November. Foreign women will
not. be excepted from the order.
This decision was reached by
the Household department, which
has charge of all the rules, and
regulations pertaining to the en
thronement, after consultation
with foreign envoys who will rep
resent their countries at the func
tion.
Extremely short skirts and low-
cut frocks, the Household officials:
explained, were not in line with
Japanese customs and inappropri
ate to the solemnity of the cere
monies. So the wives and daugh
ters of the foreign diplomats must
govern themselves accordingly.
In addition, the officials point
ed out. the great hall at Kyoto,
where the enthronement rites are
to be performed, will not be heat
ed and it is their endeavor to
'protect the foreign women visit
ors against the cold."

campaign should be conducted. He
also put in a word now and then,
but the talk resulted in no definite

tee members should immediately

home states and report to Sen
ator Gerry.
Dates for the notification of
both the Governor and his running
mate were not discussed, and It
was Indicated later that it prob
ably would be some days before
they would be fixed.
Committee members reported
that the general opinion was. that
It would be unwise to establish
regional headquarters in the
south, as 'Senator Robinson has
proposed. Representatives from
the "solid south" for the most
part felt that there was no chance
of losiny any states in that sec
tion. Predictions were made by the
eommittee that General campaign
headquarters would be here, rath
er than In Washington where the
Republicans will have their mala
base, and the suggestion came
from several sources that Denver
would be a good location for wes
ters headquarters.
Governor Smith indicated that
he favored a short. Intensive
peaking campaign on, his part
with speeches limited, but com
mittee members went away con
vinced that he intended to cover
much ground on his stumping
tour, going into as many states as
possible.
