'King of Kings' Offered<br />

Detroiters for Advent<br />

DETROIT—The Adams Theatre is giving<br />

religious-minded people a perfect opportunity<br />

to prove tlieir support Of pictures<br />

produced with them in mind by opening<br />

with a reissue of "King of Kings" for the<br />

pre-Christmas season of Advent. It is being<br />

appropriately advertised as "The perfect<br />

picture for the season . . . for the<br />

family."<br />

Success of the booking may be considered<br />

problematical in view of the closing two<br />

days earlier of another religious picture,<br />

"Constantine and the Cross" at the Fox<br />

after only two weeks, although it started<br />

wrong. Its predecessor, separated only by<br />

a one-week horror bill, was "I Spit on Your<br />

Grave," which lasted a good six weeks for<br />

a recent record. Following "Constantine"<br />

is "The White Slave Ship."<br />

Close Two Maine Airers<br />

PORTLAND—Two more Maine driveins—the<br />

Saco, Saco, and Windham, Windham—have<br />

closed for the season.<br />

Jackie Gleason and Steve McQueen will<br />

star in Allied Artists' "Soldier in the Rain."<br />
