Fox Port Chester House Shifted to N. E. Division

“Port Chester, N. Y. — The Fox-Capitol here has been transferred from the New York Division to the Fox-New England circuit, it is announced by Herschel Stuart, general manager of the N. E. houses. Geographical location of the house is the reason for the shift. William Michaelson is manager of the theater and there will be no personnel changes in connection with the transfer.

Stuart now has 16 houses under his direction. Two of them, the Elm in Worcester and the Hyperion in New Haven, are closed for the summer to undergo remodeling.”
