THE PROSCENIUM is unostentatious, in keeping with' "the New England theme. Flanked by two severely fluted columns — topped by a Doric capital, even simpler than its Greek progenitor— the velvet hangings and the velour traveler, seen through the partly open curtain, and the proscenium present an appropriate conservatism. The steps leading from the stage oiler easy access when other than cinematic entertainment is offered.

THE LOUNGE, more like an old New England parlor than a part of a modern theatTe, is this truly Colonial room, with its paneled walls and glazed Chinese red wall paper.
THE AUDITORIUM has an interesting wall treatment: the use of four-by-four-foot squares of natural colored wall-board, stenciled to imitate Chinese wall paper in block form. The ceiling border carries out the theme further. Particularly notable and unusual in modern theatre construction — even when a Colonial motif is followed — are the chandeliers offering direct illumination to the auditorium.
