c a pital Theatre
Reopens Doors Under
Former Management

George w. Trendle, President of
the United Detroit Theatres an
nounced this week that the lease
for the Paramount Theatre on
Broadway has been acquired, and
that the theatre will be opened on
August 31st as a first run motion
picture house.
The Paramount will assume it's
original name and will be known
henceforth as the Capitol Theatre,
the name under which II operated
so long and so successfully. The
Capitol is one OF the most beauti-
full theatres in. this part OF the
country seating 1900, and was the
first deluxe house OF It's kind
built in this section.
All the latest type Of improve
ments in sound and projection
equipment are benig installed for
the opening and the house will
again take its place as one of the
outstanding show places of the
country. Extensive redecorating
and improvements are being made
for the comfort OF patrons as the
theatre returns to It's original
management of George w. Trendle.
II was built by John ii. Kunsky
and managed by Trendle with
great success up until the Kunsky
interests sold out to Publix, when
for time 1t was called the Para
mount. The theatre however. has
always been known to good
share of Michigan citizens as the
Capitol. and this has occasionet
the decision to change its nam,
back to the original title.
