Roy Wells Among those employees long Identified with the Klamath Theatres organization is Roy Wells, now Pelican theatre main tenance supervisor. Roy Joined this organization in 1923 at which time he played clar inet with Harry Borel's Pine Tree Theatre orchestra. Later he served as organist in that same theatre from time to time. His previous theatrical exper ience was varied but all musical in nature. From 1913 Roy was on the road with travelling bands, road shows and even car nivals. He recalls having been stranded with an entire troup in Butte, Montana, and having had the same experience in Taft, (near Bakersfield) California. Among road shows with which he travelled were The Golden Gate Revue and The Black and White Revue. Because his professional musi cal career was entirely theatri cal he abandoned it with the advent of talking pictures, pre ferring to remain in Klamath Falls rather than to follow the life of a travelling bandsman. However, music remains his fav orite hobby and he spends much time each week at the Pelican theatre piano during those hours when the theatre is dark. He is an ardent sports spectator, fol lowing baseball, football, wrestl ing, etc., during their respective seasons.
