I OUR GREAT POSSTION liiMii ^ WITH the signing of contracts for the first release of our Product in Adelaide and Perth, we are now in a better position than we have been for some time, as regards distribution in Australia. With such an abundance of good sound boxoffice pictures, it was only natural that the position would right itself. First releases are now set with the Grand Theatre, Perth; the New Rex Theatre, Adelaide; the Plaza Theatre, Launceston; the Avalon Theatre, Hobart; our own Capitol Theatre, Melbourne; and the Empire and the Prince Edward Theatres, Sydney. Quite a number of suburban and country contracts were sold even before the finalisation of the first releases . . .
