Salmon Feast Today.

Today is March 10 and therefore Sal
mon day along the Pacific coast and at
the National Press Club. A thirty
pound salmon, especially transported
from Astoria, Ore. for the occasion will
be served. Frank E. Gorrell secretary

course will form an important part of
the luncheon and dinner menu.
For number of years March 10 has
been observed along the west coast as
Salmon day. Modern methods of freeZ-
ing and packing and transportation
make possible the observance of March

nor has any other whaler who has
spent years in the far north. according
to a statement he made to members of

friends last night.
He was not the only entertainer of
the evening. There gas also Senior
Carlos del Castillo Mexican musi-
clan, who performed on the piano
some Of his own compositions and
others by List. Then Louis Mann,
character actor. set forth his opinion
that thee motion picture is strangling

Other Entertainment Features.

Senior Castillo exhibited technique
and sympathy in his playing that won
for him great applause. He played five
numbers of his own compositions and
Two by List. He is a professor of mu-
sic in the Conservatory of Mexico.
Louis Mann would confine the mo-
ton picture to educational purposes
and regulate it to the school room lee
ture platform and laboratory. He does
not consider that it can in any sense
take the place of spoken drama. So
called movie stars, he asserted, are
usually if not always incompetent when
they attempt to act in spoken drama.
