3 NUMB “Molion phlures Hun'l bt* )our bnl enlerlainmeni until theatre managers hnuH hoH to present a program. The biggest stumbling block to the enjo)menl oi a picture, and I mean a good picture, is the double iealure. To round out a good program I believe that managers should exhibit one good ieature, a newsreel, a cartoon and a couple oi good shorts. Tnd they are making good shorts these days, especially Metro. I sat in a projection room and saw a Carey Hilson short, a Pete Smith thriller, a Crime Doesn’t Pay’ short and a John \esbitt, and I want to tell you that any one oi these shorts is better than a dreary second iealure. Let's do away with double iealures. Let’s start showing and BILLIiSG some oi the shorts.” SIDMEV SkOLSKV ENTIRE CONTENTS OF THIS PUBLICATION IS AVAILABL1 FOR REPRODUCTION IN i WHOLE OR IN PART . . .
