STATE THEATRE
“MELODY FOR THREE.” The current programme at the State Theatre headed by “Melody for Three” and “Wagon Train," will be finally shown tonight. “POT O’ GOLD.” Incorporating the famous American weekly radio programme, the film “Pot o’ Gold,” released through United Artists, will be shown tomorrow night at the State Theatre.
