MEDFORD MATT. TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON, SUNDAY, DECEMBER II, 1932. PAGE FIVE DOORS OF HOLLY CLOSED AS FILM SUPPLY BARRED The Holly theater, one of Medford'a leading playhouses, opened to a large and appreciative public August 29, 1630, closed Its doors last night fol lowing the last showing of "Between Fighting Men," and will not be re opened until some arrangement la made by which the management can obtain films from the leading motion picture companies, John Nledermeyer, manager, announced last night. With closing of the theater, 12 per oru were added to the unemploy ment list, roost of them persons upon whom others are dependent for their present livelihood. Reopening date of the theater Is uncertain, Mr. Nledermeyer stated. since all pictures have been bought up from the major companies mak-1 tng It impossible for the Independent, 1 home-owned theater to procure first class picture. In addition to the IS persons forced out of employment by the unavoid able closing of the theater, property representing an Investment of $150, 000 became Inactive with closing of the doors last night. Since opening of the Holly theater, which Is modernly constructed and provided with sound equipment of outstanding quality, the patronage of the public has been beyond the expectations of the management, Mr. Nledermeyer stated yesterday, voic ing his appreciation of the splendid co-operatton he has received from the people of the Rogue River valley In operating an independent theater here. Closing of the theater, he explained, has been necessitated by the absolute lack of pictures, and through no other reason. As long as pictures were available, the Holly theater was doing a successful business. When It be came impossible to obtain pictures It also became Impossible to carry on, Mr. Nledermeyer added, explaining that he did not care to solicit the patronage of the public when he could not offer a first class motion picture program. Mr. Nledermeyer further stated that he is looking forward to the reopen ing of the theater, whenever arrange ments whereby first -class pictures can be obtained by a home-owned playhouse. L (By Dorothy Gore) The all-school carnival marks the high tide of Vie high school activi ties and the coronation of the queen Is the event to which the audience looks forward with keen Interest. It Is not always that a member of the Junior class can be elected queen so that the honor conferred upon Louise Etrod was a double one, which Vie wore with becoming modesty and sweetness. She wore a gown of heavy cream-white charmeuse satin with brilliants and the usual regal robe and formal detalli. She car lied a gorgeous arm bouquet of yet-1 low and orchid chrysanthemums. The queen, escorted by David Lowry, stu-1 dent body president, was preceded down the aisle by cherublo little Billy Brayton carrying the crown on a velvet cushion. Following were two adorable tiny girls, Maurlne Fields and Helen Rubenateln. as train bear era. David Lowry, with a fitting speech, placed the crown on the head of the kneeling queen and pre sented to her, In behalf of the stu dent body, a pearl and crystal neck lace after which she ascended the throne. Her maids were Barbara Wall and Alice May Shirley, senior and sophomore queen candidates, respect lcely.
