Chief Askew's Diary: March 21, 1930

'Nothing doing today' in Newnan, but a tense crime thriller is playing at the movies

Chief Askew observed Newnan was enjoying “some pretty weather,” and gave the update on the woman who was carved up in the knife fight that I mentioned yesterday. Other than that, it was a quiet day for the police department.

At the Alamo Theatre on Newnan’s town square, several new movies for the coming week were announced, including the “tense, jolting, thrilling all-talking” picture Woman Trap. Paid subscribers can read on about this 1929 drama and its stars. Click below to upgrade to paid.

A reproduction of the original poster promoting the film is being offered by a dealer on eBay.
