 Want No Competition
 Mir Pietroroia. in q corvc rsation with the Herald here today stated that the reason for the inclusion in to the contract of the clause which states that the Princess must not be utilized as rheater IS due 10 the fact that Warner brothers hold a I0-year contract with the Colonial concern which guarantees no com- petition in the theatrical business for that length Of time. The Warner brothers. he said wish 10 have only two showhousos operating in Bris- tol at enc time.
 This contract is so air tight. Mr Pictroroia asserted. that the Colonial firm. fl 1t desires 70 remain in the theatrical linc, mu-t locate in an- other town or city. not Bristol. He averrcd that competing motion pic ture thcater promoters must not even b. adyiced to locate here.
