SIDE NOTE: The director of the Capitol Theatre was MAJOR EDWARD BOWES (June 14th, 1874 – June 13th, 1946) was one of the theater's founders. From its stage, in 1922, was broadcast the first radio program offered in a theater. Samuel F. Rothafel (Roxy) presided over these broadcasts from the Capitol Theatre until 1925, and when he left Bowes took over. Bowes began his amateur hour in 1934 as a sideline. It became so popular that more than 2,000 applications to appear were received every day. Amateur hours were not new when the Major blossomed into a front-page radio man with his amateur hour. But for years, Major Bowes became an American habit, something like the Sunday afternoon nap. Millions of people listened to him. His titles were many and diverse. He was honorary mayor of 67 cities, honorary fire chief of 57 cities, honorary police chief of 51 cities, honorary editor of 30 newspapers. He owned a stable of racing horses, three yachts, eight automobiles, and had four chefs. His salary was around $430,000 a year, or roughly about a quarter of a million dollars greater than that of his radio sponsor, Walter P. Chrysler, the automobile manufacturer.
