This snippet that fell under the banner 'Geelong and District' tells of a bazaar that was held in Sladen Hall (the previous name of what was later to be known as the Embassy Theatre) that intended to raise money on behalf of the Wounded Soldiers Fund. The bazaar was promoted by the Mayoress of Newtown & Chilwell Mrs. Cairns.
This news item reveals how Sladen Hall was utilised by the greater community before it was to become a cinema in the 40's. It shows how it was an important area that was used often. As other news articles have proven the hall was used for political meetings and ballets. |
