additional situations.<br />

in an enthusiastic mood when it<br />

{comes to the future of the Industry," says<br />

Calvocoressci. partner in Bercal, Inc.<br />

Hartford, His associate, Bernie Menschell,<br />

lis of the same opinion.<br />

At present, the M-C organization operates<br />

Drive-In, Bolton Notch, and the Plalnfield,<br />

Plainfield, all in Connecticut.<br />

Both Menschell and Calvocoressci admit<br />

they have been looking over potential acquisitions,<br />

but are not in the market for<br />

"just any theatre. We're looking for theatres<br />

with growth possibilities."<br />

The two partners formerly worked with<br />

Skouras Theatres in New York and are acquainted<br />

with both small and large situations.<br />

"If you have faith in the industry, the<br />

industry will carry out that faith," asserts<br />

Menschell. "Too many people In the industry<br />

are easy talkers, in that they are quick to<br />

condemn and slow to correct. If you have<br />

a theatre and watch its operation carefully,<br />

you are bound to be a good showman."<br />
