4 MARCH SCREEN MIRROR since ye bo by Rainford flower Shop 1115 Fourth St. Ph. F. 7101 JOSEPH RUSSO CANDIDATE FOR CITY COUNCIL Joseph J. Russo, chief projectionist for the San Diego Fox West Coast Theatres, has announced his candidacy for the City Council. At the forthcoming election, two councilmen are to be chosen by the people. In the case of Russo, the campaign is definitely laid down on lines of personal ability, based on what the candidate has already done. There are a variety of things in favor of Russo. In the first place he is a young man and full of enthusiasm and interest in city politics. He is alert and honest and has enjoyed a successful career in connection with his duties as chief projectionist of the Fox Theatres here. A resident of San Diego for the past twelve years, he has taken an active interest in both the commercial and civic life of the community. A student of municipal affairs, there is probably no one more conversant with the workings of city government than Russo. He has made an earnest study of the proposed city charter and has been a member of the charter committee. His position as superintendent of projection has brought him in contact with many of the business men of the city and they make the best campaigners he has. For Russo has proven himself honest in every respect and has furthermore impressed with his ability. Russo believes that the citizens should have more to say in respect to the spending of money gained from taxation. He also believes that the city councilmen should work as much for the future benefit of a city as for its present needs. His platform calls for a heeding of public opinion and a knowledge of city government by all men who are connected with any phase of city work. O FOX CALIFORNIA TO ENTER FIELD OF VAUDEVILLE Under the new plan in San Diego whereby J. Lawton Kendrick has been made manager of the Fox California, vaudeville will become a part of the policy there. The Fox California now shows a straight motion picture program for five days of the week and on Saturday and Sunday shows motion pictures in conjunction with a vaudeville show. This vaudeville represents the best that can be secured. The acts are all headliners and are being booked directly from Los Angeles. The price is in accordance with the policy at the Fox California to present shows that the whole family can attend without straining the purse. The shows are excellent, put on with the finish and polish accorded all Fox West Coast entertainment and presented as good amusement. It is hoped that the people will find in this vaudeville an answer to their desire for the stage type of entertainment.

O Glorifying the lowly hamburg! That’s Dixie Duke, the hot dog man de luxe, the gentleman who is building up a legend for the luscious “dog” and the steaming “hamburg.” It’s an art and the man from Dikie knows how to turn out the “hamburg” with the pedigree and the “dog” that won’t talk back. You’ll find Dixie Duke safely ensconsed in a cosy place between A and B street on Sixth, directly across from the Athletic Club. Drop in some time and try to find fault with a hamburg.
