Lowe&#8217;s Lincoln Square Theater was built here in the early 1930s and by 1951 CBS had bought it. It was a large theater with a double balcony and a large single stage. One of the first shows from here was the daytime version of &#8216;Strike It Rich&#8217;. Other shows from here were &#8216;The Ad Libbers&#8217;, &#8216;Break The Bank&#8217; and &#8216;Draw To Win&#8217;. Draw To Win was a game show hosted by Henry Morgan. Break The Bank was co hosted by Bud Collier and Dennis James. The Ad Libbers only ran 5 episodes but Jack Lemon was one of the members of the cast that acted out short comedy sketches suggested by the audience (shades of Drew Carry&#8217;s &#8216;Whose Line Is It Anyway?&#8217;). Strike It Rich started on radio but the television series premiered May 7, 1951 on CBS&#8217; daytime lineup and ran until January 3, 1958. Its popularity caused CBS to air a prime time version from July 4, 1951 to January 12, 1955.
