Concerning the Cloverleaf in Newberry I went back to the 50’s in old ads and they never once had the street address.I know at one time you were looking for it in Newberry.

Mike Rogers commented about Warsaw Drive-In on Nov 9, 2010 at 5:08 pm

May 1 1970 The WARSAW DRIVE-In is playing “CANDY” and “HIGH COMMISSIONER” “CANDY” is clearly rated R,the WARSAW policy was NO ONE UNDER 18 for R-rated films.

Couple of weeks later and the WARSAW is playing another stupid Double feature.How about the R-rated “LAST SUMMER” with the second feature Glenn Ford in"HEAVEN WITH A GUN" can not make this up.
