Girls ON PROBATION, released in 1938, was already Ronald Reagan's
tenth film in a Hollywood
acting career beginning only the previous year. Reagan played a district
attorney who befriends, and
then becomes engaged to a young girl who is first innocently led into trouble
with the law by a
criminally-inclined girlfriend, then blackmailed by her. The Lyric was one
of three movie houses
operating in Shenandoah's heyday. The Lyric Building later was the location of
Paskey's Restaurant.
