at the organ of the Regal, Beckenham
Selection
Reginald New, popular organist of the Regal Cinema, Beckenham, at which theatre he celebrated his first anniversary last August, has. been broadcasting for many years. He first started cinema work in 1920 and had various London appointments before he went to Birmingham nine years later. From there he gave over four hundred broadcasts. New succeeded Reginald Foort at the Regal Cinema, Kingston, went from there to the State Cinema, Dartford, and from there to Beckenham.
When Beckenham raised £600,000 for their War Weapons Week, New helped considerably in raising this total by parodying popular tunes and giving a * savings angle to each parody.
