Fuller Brush Man
Sweeps Blues Away

1.-THE Fuller Brush Man a Co
lumbia. comedy starring Red Skel-
ton and Janet Blair, will arrive at
the Milford Theatre on Thursday.
Principal featured players are Don
Mcguire, Hillary Brooke, Adele
Jergens, Ross Ford and Trudy
Marshall.
In making "The Fuller Brush
Man." prOduCer-director S. Sylvan
Simon is bringing to the screen an
institution familiar to millions of
U. S. housewives and one which
has inspired as many gags as
Ford's Model T. s.
SHELTON, breakaway comedian,
is said to have one of the choicest
comedy plums OF his career in the
title role. He no longer envies Van
Johnson and Robert Taylor being
surrounded by all those lovely
girls. For in his latest vehicle, he
plays opposite four, himself.
AS the hOuse-tO-house dealer,
wonderful things are said to hap
pen to Red when he goes around
knocking on strange doors. He gets
involved in murder, is messed up
by hOOdlams and mixed up with
four beauties.
The quartet of lovelies includes
Miss Blair, Reds despairing girl
friend; Miss Brooke attractive
society matron; Miss Jergens, one
OF Reds more alluring customers,
and Miss Marshall, fiancee of Ford,
one of the murder suspects.
From all reports, the final chase
sequence which is virtual three
ring circus between Red, Janet and
the villains, is said to be one of the
most hilarious ever filmed. 1t takes
place. in a warehouse loaded with
surplus war materials, with rockets

At the opening performance on
Wednesday evening, Colonel Theo-
dore Townsend made brief ad-
dress in which he stressed the
great value Of the new theatre and
the part it will play in the affairs
Of Milford and lower Delaware in
the immediate future. The program

ed approval by liberal applause.

lows:
TO THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL
OF MILFORD, DELAWARE:
February 21st, 1922:
After having examined the build
ing and drawings of the Plaza The
atre, situated in your town we beg
to submit the following report:
Walls and Piers-We find that all
roof trusses as well as girders and
beams supporting the balcony are
carried on brick piers, laid up in
cement Mortar. If the roof should
be loaded with snow and the bal
cony with people to the amount of
80 per square foot, which is equiv
alent to 1000 people averaging $50
pounds per person, we find the
maximum compression stress at
base of brick piers will be III
pounds per square inch of 1I6 the
crushing strength of the brick.
The curtain walls between these
brick piers are built of 12 inch
thick terra Gotta block for about
2I3 of it's height and 8 inch thick
tile above, plastered on both sides.
These walls do not carry any
weight but of the walls themselves
and are perfectly safe. If these
walls were removed the brick piers
would remain standing and sup
port all the loads.
After investigating the beams
and trusses in this building we beg
leave to report the following, con-
cerning strength of same:
Roof Trusses-In determining
the stresses below we have figur-
ed total dead, or structural load.
together with the superimposed

Opening OF Plaza Theatre 20
Years Ago Vas Big Success

The issue of Friday, February
"a, 1922, Milford Chronicle, car
ried the following interesting news
story on its front page.
An event of far-reaching bene-
fit to not only Milford but the
country for miles around, occur
red here on Wednesday evening
when the new Plaza Theatre was
opened to the public. This theatre,
which fills a long desired need.
will do more to bring business to
the merchants of Milford than any
one thing that has happened in
recent years. The theatre has a
seating capacity of 1900 persons: !:
zoo on the orchestra floor and 500
in the balcony.
The initial performance on We'd
nesday evening was attended by a
very large audience, many of whom
came from as far as Wilmington
on the north to Selbyville on the
south, and everybody seemed to
be delighted with the appearance
of the new theatre. The first pic
ture selected for the opening was
why Girls Leave Home" The
ushers handled the crowd we'll and
everything moved on with far less
friction than was to have been ex-
pected at the opening Of an entire
ly new building, with all new at
their work. #
The building is one of the fin
est buildings in Milford as we'll ais
on the peninsula south of Whining
ton. The contractors and builders,
John A. Bader and Company of
Wilmington, have done their work
well and with great rapidity dur
ing the very cold weather of the
present winter. The designers
were Hoffman-Henen Company Of
Philadelphia and the experience
which ]. A. Bader and Company
has had in theatre building has
shown very plainly in this, the
. newest of his products. James E.
Lewis, of Middletown, is president
of the Plaza Theatre Corporation;
w. X. Belts is secretary and trea-
surer, and William Robinson, the
present postmaster of Milford, is
the manager.
The building is 1T feet deep
and 49 feet wide, with the highest
point about fifty feet from the side
walk. 1t is built of brick, concrete
and tile entirely and REINFORCED
with steel and heavy steel girders.
The building Inspector of Whining
ton has made an inspection of the
building during and since it has
been completed, and reports over
his signature to the Town Council
of Milford that it exceeds the re-
quirements in strength and fire
hazard, which is required for the
atres in Wilmington.
The front of the structure is or
namented with large pilasters and
a cOrnice and marquee extends
across the sidewalk.
The interior of the lobby is dec

square foot, which is the load cali
ed for by the City of Wilmington
required for such buildings.
Wood Trusses-The maximum
stress found in any of the steel
members, rods, is 1925 pounds
per square inch, where the city
departments allow $4,000 pounds.
Maximum tensile stress in the bot

World War II Health

The great health record of the
army in World War II was recently
pointed out by Secretary of the
Army Royal. In World War I battle
deaths were 1914 per thousand troop
strength, non-battle deaths 17.9,
deaths from disease, 1875, and
deaths from wounds "A, while in
World War II battle deaths were 81
per thousand troop strength, nom
battle deaths, 90, deaths from dis
ease. O.6, deaths from wounds, IL.
Secretary Royal attributed these
decreased death rates to preventive
measures and to success in treat
ment OF wounds and diseases.

New Milford Built
By Local Labor

In common with it's standard
practice, Schine Circuit, Inc, has,
from the beginning of present op-
erations, insisted upon the pro-
curement locally of every available
skilled mechanic.
Although in some instances, the
services of special outside tech
nicians was required, it is a fact
that the construction of the new
Milford chronicle., 1948-06-18

theatre, started a year ago, has
consistently been a serious strain
upon the local labor supply.
1t can in reality be said this is
a Milford theatre built by Milford
labor.
It is interesting to note that the
services of 36 suppliers in the inn
Milford area were called
upon for all kinds Of equipment
and service functions.

Which is equivalent to 22S5 peo-
pie averaging $50 ID each which
means the balcony supports would
carry 1870 people before the ma
terials would reach their elastic
limits, or in other words before
the trusses and beams would sag
so much that they would not as
sumo their ogiginal positions af-
ter the load is removed. This
means that it would take about
5000 people to break down the gall
lery, that is, crush the trusses
and beams. AS the balcony seats
about 500 people, it appears to be
of excessive strength.
