I’m pretty sure the Capitol was never part of the Balaban & Katz chain. It, and the nearby Highland, were, for certain, part of the Stanley-Warner chain when I went to them frequently in the 1950s. I used to get free passes for these theaters because I had a newspaper route, delivering the “Southtown Economist.” I liked the palatial interior decoration of the Capitol, especially the “star” lights in the ceiling. The Highland’s interior was more modest.
