AND_HERE_IS_THE_COMPETITION.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY:—
All you have to do is to guess the footage of the Ginger Rogers- Fred Astaire musleal "CAREFREE", which will be released in the Queen's & Alhambra sometime in October. "CAREFREE” is Just being completed now and even RKO Radlo themselves do not know the exact footage, and will not know until the latter part of September. To give entrants a guide, the average footage of the last three Rogers-Astaire musicals is 9990 feet. Super Productions like "Carefree" Invariably run from 93 to 120 minutes, and as 90 feet of film equals 1 minute of running time, entrants can figure very close to the total footage. There are a few simple rules to adhere to. First of all, each entry sent in must be accompanied by a counterfoil of a theatre ticket (eliber Queen's or Alhambra) to the new Ginger Rogers picture HAVING WONDERFUL TIME. There is no restriction as to the number of entries by each person, so long as each one is accompanied by a theatre ticket stub for HAVING WONDERFUL TIME. Entries must be sent to General Amusements Lid.. 3rd Floor, Marina House, on or before Tues, Sept. 20, 1938, and envelopes must be marked "CAREFREE COMPETITION." Each entry will be numbered as received, and in the event of more than ons entrant guessing the correct footage, the prizes will be awarded to the first two correct entries, or failing any correct answer, to the first two answers received nearest to the current solution. Entries will be carefully checked by General Amusements Ltd, and their decision will be first. Employees of theatres and Film Companies and their families will not be eligible for entry in this competition.
