William Wilcox
Pioneer Snowman

William Wilcox, Silver Spring
Snowman who was directly instru.
mental in the building Of the
Silver Theater, was born in st.
Marylebone, a suburb of London,
England. Moving to America as
20 young man he was associated
with A. Julian Brylawski, affec.
tionately known as Daddy" Bry.
lawski, in the management Of the
Cosmos Theater, Washington, a
very popular motion picture en-.
tertainment center.
When the World War began in
1914, Wilcox enlisted in @ Cana.
dian regiment and went overseas.
Then, when the war ended he ye-
turned to Washington and took
up his work with Daddy" Bry-
lawski.
On March "a, 1892, Mr.. Wilcox
took over the management Of the

ner and Jack Warner comprise the
firm. The first theater was Q little
continuous performance house in
Newcastle, Pa, opened in 1908.
But Warner Bros. saw greater op.
Iportunity as producers than exhib-
itors and began their important
contracts as distributors Of films.
In the year that followed, the
fateS doled out good times and
bad to Warner Bros. Eventually
they became important producers
with studios In Hollywood Q n d
Brooklyn. Then came the oppor.
tunity they anticipated. Silent
films had been perfected to the
point where little further progress
could be expected. Pioneers from
the first, Warner Bros. undertook
the perfection Of o practical talIs
ing-picture apparatus.
The courage and foresight dis.
played by Warner Bros. eventually
brought Vitaphone to the screen
and revolutionized the motion pic.
ture industry. In time this was
followed by the introduction Of
100% natural color pictures, to
add additional value to the enter.
tainment they provided for the
public. Tremendous expansion fol-
lowed the introduction Of the Vita
phone. From an important factor
in the business Warner Bros. al.
most overnight became a domi.
mating force. With this growth
they naturally entered the field Of
theater operation. Beautiful thea
terS are now under their direction
in every section of the country.
In all their undertakings War.

ture and considered what it might

adopted q motto-"What Warner

resolutely adhered to and upon
that base has been built the mag.

today stands without superior in
