Stage and Broadcasting Booth Lined with Acousti-Celotex
Rebuilding of the stage and broadcasting both at Victory House, war bond sales center, in Pershing Square, Los Angeles, provided an opportunity to solve the problem of presenting music, speeches, vaudville acts anci other entertainment on an open-air stage in the heart of a busy city.
Pershing Square, with street car lines on two sides, bus lines all around it, and heavy traffic on all four sides, presents a noise problem for the producers of the daily programs that aid in the sale of war bonds and stamps.
The difficulty was met by lining the entire stage and broadcasting booth with Acousti-Celotex, a highly efficent sound-absorbing perforated fibre tile.
The Celotex Corporation donated the material, and labor was donated by the Harold E. Shugart Company, which has done work for all major aircraft companies and on many government projects, and is one of 30 distributors of Acousti-Celotex in the United States.
Some of the large projects recently completed by the Shugart Company with Acousti-Celotex are:
Naval Hospital, in Southern California; the former Norconian Club taken over by the Navy. On this project,' 150,000 feet of Acousti-Celotex were used.
Air Force Headquarters Buildings; formerly the American Storage Building near Vermont Avenue; 60,000 feet used.
