Two protestors stand in front of the Playtime Rex Theater in Tacoma's Eastside neighborhood. The original Rex Theater opened in 1919, and closed its doors in 1958. In 1980, adult theater corporation Playtime Cinemas reopened the location as the Playtime Rex Theater for live performances and adult movie showings. In the photograph, the theater sign reads, "Playtime Rex: Annete Haven In Person Tonight." The protestors pose underneath the marquee, holding picket signs that read, "Citizens Against Porn" on the left, and "Get Filth Out of Our Neighborhood," "Unless Ye Repent So Ye Also Shall Perish," held by the person on the right.

Snapshot Contest (Continued) - 12

A black-and-white photograph taken at Yosemite National Park was a $500 honor award winner in last year's Kodak International Newspaper Snapshot Awards contest. Judges were impressed with "not only the wide range of tone, but the wide range of textures that beautifully complement each other" in the photo. The News Tribune summer snapshot contest is a little more than a week from being completed. Winners of weekly prizes, plus honorable mention certificate winners, will compete in a final local contest to be considered for entry in the international contest and will vie for cash and travel prizes in the amount of $55,000. Deadline for this week's contest is 9 a.m. Monday and the final week's deadline is at 9 a.m. August 11.
