I forgot to mention that my dad and grandfather used to take me to the “Broad,” which was a real rathole, even back then. People would run up on the stage while the movie was in progress and the audience would make rude comments during the shows. I used to go to the matinees where I won silver dollars, but I can’t remember what I did to win them.

I lived at 2147 N. 4th St. until I left for the Army in February, 1960. The only movie I remember watching at the Uptown was Auntie Mame (sp), and I saw it three times one day in the company of a pretty blonde. I loved that area of uptown back then, but I digress.
