      A FLYING THEATRE
      What is believed to be the first aerial motion picture show was given on board an eleven passenger hydroplane which flew at the Chicago Pageant of Progress. A Rothacker produced film comprised the first picture program, and was presented while the plane was 2,000 feet in the air. The picture was "Howdy Chicago." A. L. Parker, "publicity person" for Rothacker Film Co., staged the stunt.
