Starting in the Thanksgiving season of that month, Loew’s rented the shuttered Fine Arts for a trial period of a “Swing Shift” policy running from 11:00 PM to 7:00 AM the next morning for wartime factory workers. First-run programming was the same as at Loew’s State and Orpheum, but the experiment proved unsuccessful and probably ended with this booking. Next up at Loew’s State & Orpheum was “Jack London” and co-feature, with no mention of the Fine Arts Owl in advertising or news reports.
