This location appears to have many names. Among them is the Scout Theatre which launched in 1918 likely as its second name. It then became the Idlehour Theatre on July 15, 1932 with “Fireman, Save My Child.” On December 10, 1932 it became the Allen Theatre launching with “That’s My Boy.” In April, “Gone With The Wind” played at the theatre. When the Delta Theatre opened on June 23, 1948, the Allen’s days were numbeed.Though the Allen’s last film appears to be a 1954 screening, regular theatrical operations appear to have ended in 1949. The building was sold in 1955 for other retail purposes.
