New Temple Theater to Open Doors on Thursday Night, The Ithaca Journal, Wed Dec 12 1928, P. 8 (full page, with photo of Harry G. Clark)

"Another theater will appear on the amusement horizon of Ithaca tomorrow when the new Temple Theater opens its doors at 114 East Seneca Street. This is a strictly motion picture theater, built and owned by the Seneca Street Theaters. Inc.
The new playhouse--the second to be opened in Ithaca within a week--will seat 840 people. The management claims the most 'leg room' for its patrons of any theater in the city, with the seat rows spaced 32 inches apart."

"Harry G. Clark, president of the Seneca Street Theaters, Inc., has been interested in the motion picture business in Ithaca for the last 12 years. He has been a partner with Daniel E. Malone in the Happy Hour Theater, located in the Library Building, and will continue that partnership, despite his new venture.
  The other officers in the corporation are: Mrs. Harry G. Clark and Riley H. Heath.
Mr. Clark was formerly a newspaper pressman, filling that capacity for The Journal-News for many years. He resigned some time ago to devote his entire time to his theatrical interests.
  Mr. Clark came to Ithaca 17 years ago from Washington, D. C., where he had worked as a pressman for the Washington Post."

"Ground was broken for the Temple last July. William D. McElwee of Forest Home was the building contractor. The site chosen was that of the City Cafeteria, which removed to North Cayuga Street. The old frame building was razed

J.A. Peters, draughtsman for Cornell University, was the architect who designed the building."
