The College Park was also known as the Park Theatre between 1935 and 1946.

In Motiograph’s projectionist trade magazine “The Sound Track,” Volume 4, Number 3 – undated (but almost certainly in late 1944 or early 1945), there is a letter on page 30 which reads:

“Please continue to send us THE SOUND TRACK. I think it has been a great help to all operators. Since we girls took over for the men called to the armed forces, there have been lots of times that this advice from old experienced hands has really come in handy.

Keep it coming my way, please.
