Boxoffice, Nov. 23, 1959: “Hutchinson, Kas. - The New Flag Theatre, a luxury-styled theatre which Jay Wooten in association with Commonwealth Theatres has rebuilt out of the shell of the old State Theatre, will open Monday (23) for the trade, press, radio and TV. The 400-seat theatre is probably the only new house to open in Kansas this year, and the owners have poured a considerable chunk of money into giving this town a top-quality theatre.”
