We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

These plcturft house bills name the acts or special attractions for the week and the title of the film concurrently playing as Indicated by the Hnal title. Picture house bills for the succeeding week also will be printed when obtainable. Owing to lateness of completion of picture house programs and the lack of system in bookings, the biUa are being gathered by Variety at present in a haphazard manner but are authentic as reported below. This department will list only traveling attractions, acta, or- chestras, etc., but not permanent house orchestras, permanent or- chestra leaders, organists, «oloists or any permanent entertainment unit or individual.
