I remember the days I worked at the State Theater..Way back around 1953…I was an usher..for a short time..the head usher left and I was made head usher…Julia Smith the boss.. her husband was Mr. Zolo…She was very strick…but fair…her rules had to be obeyed
A lot of memories… She had two Boston Bulldogs that I had to walk every day…The ushers had to stand at each aisle with their hand behind them..

On Saturday matinees..when the kids were to noisy.. in the balcony
she would turn on the lights and open the exit doors and put everyone out…does anyone remember this…. I do…She ran a tight shift…She was always very good to me… some nice memories of the State Theater…I have a lot more.. but someday I’ll write more….
