Reply, with fullest particulars, to— BOX XI, September 9g, 1922. Capitol Production’s latest film, with the attractive title of “Girls, Beware,’’ will be trade shown at the Gaiety very shortly, and at the Futurist, Liverpool, on September 19. The film will be presented with adequate musical effects, and any showman worthy of the name will readily discover many angles of exploitation that the title of the film suggests, and, if the film is as good as Mr. Harris says it is, it should provide the Capitol people with a very busy time. Their film, ‘t Morality,” is going as well as ever, and bookings on this film are brisker than ever. Capitol seem to specialise in attractive titles, and they certainly could have chosen much less attractive titles than ‘“ Morality ’’ and ‘‘ Girls, Beware.” On the ground that it is not fair to kinema theatres that music halls should devote their entire program to films, Hull kinema proprietors have asked the Licensing Committee to restrict kinema licences at music halls. Miss Muriel McCormick, a daughter of Mr. Harold McCormick, the American multi-millionaire, has accepted an offer to appear in four film plays. Her grandfather is Mr. John D. Rockefeller. The Tivoli Theatre at Barrow, which was opened a few weeks avo after being closed for some months, is doing satisfactory business. The Hippodrome is still closed, and probably will remain so until a change comes over the industrial aspect of the town. Our old friend Tom Lewis, of Bury, will be able ‘to display his talent on the organ as soon as his hall is reopened, as we are given to understand that a very fine organ will be installed in the new building. The rebuilding of this hall will take a little longer than expected, and from what we gather there is no possibility of the reopening taking place for a few months. yet. “FILM RENTER.”
