No House Too Small For the Fotoplayer A report of recent installations received from the American Photo Player Company indicates most interestingly the present musical tendencies of picture theatres along the lines of economy and efficiency. The installations recently made of Fotoplayers are as follows : Crystal Theatre, Superior, Wyonv'ng; Home Theatre, Los Angeles, Cal.; A. J. Davenport, Compton, Cal.; the International Amusement Co., El Paso, Tex.; Playhouse Theatre, Los Angeles, Cal.; F. A. RIchey, Los Angeles, Cal.; Casino Theatre, San Diego, Cal. ; Ramona Theatre, San Diego, Cal.; Star Theatre, Oshkosh, Wis.; Orpheum Theatre, Centerville, Iowa; Circle Amusement Corporation, Ottumwa, Iowa ; Flite Theatre Co., Milwaukee, Wis.; Seminole Theatre, Homestead, Fla. ; Lewis Theatre, Brooklyn, N. Y. ; Grand Theatre, Winter Haven, Fla. ; Pearl Theatre, Brooklyn, N. Y. ; Dixie Theatre, Coleman, Tex. The American Photo Player Company ad vise us that the smaller theatres are equipping themselves with Style Fifteen, the baby of the Fotoplayer family, which enables even the little house to present a musical program that would be totally beyond its reach financially to obtain with a regular staff of musicians. Hallherg Equipment Installed by Spiegel Max Spiegel has just purchased for his two houses, the State Theatre of Schenectady and the Troy Theatre of Troy, a double Hallberg electric speed indicator equipment, with generators for two projectors and specially designed projection room panels on which are mounted the speed indicators for use by the projectionists. The panels are equipped with a switchover and control devices for additional indicators located on the orchestra leader's stands in the orchestra pit. These installations, which were sold by Joe Hornstein. of the Howell Cine Equipment Company, illustrate the tendency of progressive exhibitors to insure the best possible results in the way of co-ordinating the music with the picture and enabling both projectionist and orchestra leader to work in harmony.
