CONFIDENTIAL ALMANAC | Dates in Film Culture History<\/strong><\/p>\n

80 Years Ago<\/strong> \u2026 Saturday, September 10, 1938:<\/em> After assuming ownership of several movie theaters in the Champaign-Urbana<\/strong> market including the Park<\/strong>, Colonial<\/strong>, and Princess<\/strong>, the largest local project for the La Salle, IL<\/strong>-based Alger Brothers<\/strong> chain comes to fruition in partnership with A.J. Balaban<\/strong> of Chicago<\/strong>. The Co-Ed Theater<\/strong>, located on Green Street<\/strong> within easy walking distance of the University of Illinois<\/strong> and an underserved campus population, opens its doors this afternoon to host a full house for its grand opening show<\/a><\/span> that includes news reels, a Betty Boop<\/strong> cartoon, and the comedic First National\/Warner Bros.<\/strong> feature WOMEN ARE LIKE THAT<\/strong> starring Kay Francis<\/strong> and Pat O\u2019Brien<\/strong>. This venue differs from the existing Alger properties in that it is their first theater built from the ground up, despite incorporating basic infrastructure that was already present on the north side of the block between Sixth<\/strong> and Wright<\/strong> streets, and it will premiere the best in first-run fare while the others bring back second-run attractions \u201cat popular prices,\u201d as described in The Art Theater<\/span><\/strong> by Perry Morris<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, et al<\/em>. Chicago architectural firm Monberg & Wagner<\/strong> drew up the plans to accommodate 900 seats in an Art Moderne setting, accented by UI-inspired plaques and an orange-and-blue lighting scheme, while the William C.F. Kuhne Company<\/strong> of Rantoul<\/strong> erected the structure as detailed in numerous reports by the News-Gazette<\/span><\/strong> and Courier<\/span><\/strong> newspapers<\/a><\/span>. The Co-Ed would briefly close between 1958 and 1959 after Edward<\/strong> and Howard Alger<\/strong> decided to leave the exhibition business, selling it to Kerasotes Theatres<\/strong> along with most of their other locations.<\/p>\n
