Taka-Chance Week -- Every Number is a Secret! -- July 6, 2024

Wichita Eagle, 06-July-1924

I thought it was interesting that Stanley N Chambers, manager of the Miller Theater in Wichita, came up with the concept of Taka-Chance Week. "...every feature of our program will be a surprise..." Titles would not be announced ahead of time.

"...we're paging all of Wichita's gamblers to Taka-Chance on the MILLER this week."

The first of the two features for the week was directed by Emmett J Flynn, based on a play by Owen Davis must have been Nellie the Beautiful Cloak Model.
