RAY SMITH, left, last week was named vicepresident of the Jamestown Amusement Co., with headquarters in New York. He will assist Gerald Shea, president, and will continue supervising buying and booking.
PROMOTING "Knights of the Round Table" was the subject as MGM advertising-publicity vice-president Howard Dietz met the other day in New York with exploitation executives. In array are Emery Austin, exploitation manager; Mr. Dietz; Silas F. Seadler, advertising manager; Dan Terrell, publicity manager; Howard Strickling, studio: publicity director; O. A. Kingsbury, Donahue and Coe; Joseph Flynn, promotion; Halsey Raines, publicity; and Ernest Emerling, Loew's Theatres ad chief.
MGM's THIRTY YEARS are being noted these days with rallies and other appropriate ceremonies; and of course a sales drive will take advantage of the enthusiasm. Above, at the Des Moines exchange, 30th Anniversary Jubilee captain John P. Byrne, second from right, poses with personnel. Mr. Byrne also visited in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Seattle. With him, above, are, seated, Margaret McGaffee, Florence Baker, Theo Anderson, Geraldine Robuck, Shirley Gass, Helen Long; and, standing, Ivan Fuldauer, Morris Nystrom, Harold Sutphin, Chet Howser, Helen I. Hansen, F. D. Armington, Jr., Wilma Foster, John J. Pilmaier, Howard T. Dunn, Margaret Rowson, George M. Baumeister, Jerry McGlynn, Kay Taylor, Helen E. Hansen, Daryl Johnson, and, right, Burtus Bishop, Jr., midwest sales manager.
REPORT, right, by 20th-Fox president Spyros Skouras, returned to New York from three weeks in Europe. He decried attempts to "dilute" CinemaScope in its components of screen, sound, and light, and pointed to records set by "The Robe", impending records of other hits, and to company's financial report.
