In the Courts
Herbert Lewis has sued the Lee Lash Studios for $27,588 as his commissions on the sale of advertising in film theaters throughout the State tinder a contract by which Lewis was hired as director of publicity and advertising and was to get 20 per cent.
The Gentry Film Co. has sued the U. S. Fidelity & Guaranty Co., as surety for the Educational Films on a bond to the plaintiff, for $25,000 damages. The complaint alleges that the plaintiff made a contract to pay Educational $25,000 to distribute throughout the Fast films made by the plaintiff under a contract with the c<<:i\ operators of West "Virginia. The plaintiff alleged that Educational made so many changes in the films that the purpose of taking them was defeated, and also failed to distribute them as agreed.
A Correction
In the report of the M. P. E. A. meeting held last week it was stated that C. E. Whitehurst of Baltimore attended the meeting. This was an error.
