THE PROSCENIUM, gaily adorned with brightly colored stage curtains, is modern in design. The lines of the ceiling, running irregularly from the rear, find their termini at the stage floor, serve in place of the usual columnar decorations for flanking the proscenium. The murals of galloping deer and distal plainness break the abundance of closely applied parallel tines on the rest of the wall. THE AUDITORIUM is ultramodern in all of its appointments, and Architect John Eberson should be congratulated on his choice of theme and materials. Particularly of interest is the pattern employed in the decoration of the side and rear walls. v « THE FOYER, in keeping with the modern motif of the house, is delightfully colorful and warming to the patron upon his entrance into the theatre. The Venetian blinds, surmounting the standee rail, although not an innovation here, is, nevertheless, quite smart.
