The Page theater management feels it is about to score a triumph, in giving the public the very thing it has been seeking for a long time, a combination of the best features of vaudeville and the screen stage at a very low admission price. Tuesday's bill will consist of four deluxe vaudeville acts and six reels of high class first-run film pictures. Variety with a big V characterizes the bill today. There's the Three Westons in a beautiful, artistic and daring posing sensation. Bert Devoe & Co. in a comedy sketch titled "The Wife," which is a slambang, hammer and tong farce. Gene and Katherine King in a comedy and singing, and Jerome and Lewis in a singing surprise. This would seem enough for hippodrome prices, but there is the celebrated Ethel Barrymore in the astonishing Metro wonderplay, "The Kiss of Hate." LOCAL AND PERSONAL Tomorrow evening the 7th company will hold an inspection drill for Lieut. Shippan, who has charge of the Oregon National Guard. The local company is drilling three times a week. On Saturday they have rifle practice. Tuesday evening Sergt. Hill instructs the recruits and Wednesday evening the company has maneuvers and plotting room drills. They have installed a device that carries a lighted candle to the observers with their instruments can track the target and its course plotted. The company can track, locate, plot and predict the location of a ship in a given time in 20 seconds, allowing for time of flight for shell, windage and atmospheric conditions. This is considered rapid time. There will be no more changing names of streets in this city unless the changee desires to put up a bond to cover the costs. The changing of Roosevelt avenue to Crater Lake avenue cost the city $6.50. It was very painful to some members of the street committee.
