of Chicago the right to sublease the films The
Champion, The Jitney Elopement, Work and By the Sea
for Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin for $26,500
on account of the contract its 400 but after Beehive had
paid only rights were sold to the Reelcraft corporation,

„A try at ring hours with a sunburst of hilarious effects“
Editorial content. „PALACE.
Double Comedy Bill.“ (...)
„The extra added comedy element of the bill is supplied
by Charlie Chaplin in a grand and brilliant screen
revival of his earlier comedy classic, The Champion. It is in this
picture that Chaplin, in the role of an ambitious but
decidedly amateur actor, essays a try at ring hours with
a sunburst of hilarious effects that are impossible
to describe or define.“
