& U. A. Start Delayed

      United Artists started its sales campaign a little later than

any of the others, because of the reorganization

that took place within the corporation. The material

strengthening of the list of star names which

that outfit has accomplished will add greatly to the

sales strength of the campaign U. A. will

put forward. The new Chaplin Gold Rush feature

and the first Fairbanks picture of the year

look particularly „hot“ in the matter of sales for U. A.

„Looks like six months at least“

Editorial content. „Quake Scare Over In L. A.

      Picture Houses Regain Normal Pace

                                                                Los Angeles, July 14.

                                               (Drawing Population 1,250,000)

      Theatre business in general with the first-run picture

houses especially have recovered from the ,quake‘ scare. For

the two weeks since the Santa Barbara ,shocks‘ folks

were a bit war about going into the picture houses. Last week

things rightened themselves.“ (...)

      „Charlie Chaplin in The Gold Rush at Grauman‘s Egyptian

looks like six months at least. The picture caught

on from the start, with the second week‘s business capacity

at all performances. Sid Grauman made several

changes in the prolog, which resulted in speeding it up and

establishing it as the ,greatest stage presentation

ever made in conjunction with a motion picture.‘ The cast has

been considerably augmented, with around 125

people used.“ (...)

      „Grauman‘s Egyptian – The Gold Rush (U. A.) (1,800;

50–1,65.) Best of Chaplin output and as sold by

Sid Grauman may be biggest money getter in history

of the house. Second week, capacity: $26,000.“

     The Gold Rush opens June 26, 1925

      at Grauman‘s Egyptian, 6712 Hollywood Bld., Los Angeles.

      The Gold Rush opens August 15, 1925
