{"title":"Semri Drive-In","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Semri Drive-In in Silvis, Illinois, opened in the summer of 1951 at 1900 10th Street, with Dan Dailey in Give My Regards to Broadway. When it was announced in May 1950, the architect's sketch called it the Rustic Drive-In, with plans for 700 cars at a cost of $100,000. A trade paper reported it under construction in early 1951, with a Memorial Day opening planned.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Independent Amusement Company, which already ran the Memri Drive-In in Milan, was behind it. The name that stuck was built from local towns. The Memri had taken its name in a contest, from letters of Milan and the Illinois side of the Quad Cities. Swap Silvis in for Milan and you get Semri: Silvis, East Moline, Rock Island.
