Since You Asked: Park resurfacing delayed during winter ... Mail Tribune 100, May 9, 1915 The following news items were drawn from the archives of the Mail Tribune 100 years ago. Comment MailTribune.com Writer Posted May. 9, 2015 at 12:01 AM Posted May. 9, 2015 at 12:01 AM » Social News May 9, 1915 PREACHERS WANT CENSOR FOR MOVIES At the regular meeting of the Medford Ministerial association this morning, it was ordered that a recommendation be sent to the city council urging the enactment of an ordinance providing for the censorship of moving picture performances, and that as far as practicable and possible, they follow the provisions of the ordinance recently enacted in the city of Portland for the government of moving picture shows, and the elimination of objectionable films. WORLD FAMOUS LION TAMER WITH SELLS-FLOTO CIRCUS Around the "padroom" they call him the "man who was born without fear." They do not give him special credit for what he does — they believe fear simply was left out of his makeup when he was born, and nothing he can do excites them. But to those who know, there is a different story behind the actions of Captain Dutch Recardo, lion tamer of the Sells-Floto Circus and Buffalo Bill's Original Wild West, which is coming to this city for one day, Monday, May 17. For Captain Dutch Recardo does have fear — but he never allows it to conquer him. Captain Recardo will demonstrate his methods of lion taming when he comes here with the circus. But he is to form only a part of the big show. There are all the other acts. Rosa Rosalind, the "Maid of Mystery," the equestriennes, the riders, the aerialists and equilibrists, the forty clowns and — of course, Buffalo Bill. He is to lead the free street parade when it passes through the downtown streets at 10:30 o'clock the morning of circus day. In the performance he will personally present and supervise the wild west features of the show and will give his time-honored salute from the saddle. The circus this year retains its old admission price of 25 cents, including a seat.
