tilation and lighting included in the general planning. If practicable, a cleaners' room, with running hot and cold water and large slop-sink, should be planned for each floor of the theatre, with space within the closet for hanging mops, brooms, dust cloths, dusters, etc. A similar room should be placed under the stage. Boiler rooms should be located with special reference to street level, and to facilitate the handling of fuel and ashes. The fan room—as part of the ventilating sys- tem—is generally located under the stage. (The elimination of noise from pumps, fans and fan motors necessitates placing these in isolated rooms.) Motion-Picture Booth The physical structure of the motion-picture booth is now almost universally regulated by law, as well as the number and size of openings, the character and type of shutters, windows, ports, etc., which are permissible. The booth should be absolutely rigid, of suf- ficiently heavy construction to eliminate all vi- bration; its fire doors and traps should all work smoothly and as nearly noiselessly as possible. 40
