Physician calls for lower movie prices in Waterloo
Dr Shallenberger argues admission of 65 cents is too high and urges producers to invest in films to reduce costs for consumers. Waterloo theaters claim prices are fair, noting rents and upkeep keep margins tight while promising value with next week’s program. Local managers defend 40 cent standard, reporting no complaints from patrons.
