[or-roots] Portland Theater

[bfain at thegrid.net]

      My older sister Lois grew up in Portland in the late 40 and early 50's.  She married in 1954, moved away but moved back in the late 60's.  She seems to remember the "Roxy" theatre turned into a burlesque theater sometime in the early 50's.  The only theaters she remember were the Premier theater and they were the "Broadway"  and the "Paramount" in downtown Portland.  Her girlfriend and she went and saw "River of No Return" with Marilyn Monroe.  She also remembers the  Coney Island" cafe with Johnny Ray singing on the Jude box.
