Open House at CBS Arranged for S.C. Summer Students
Your favorite radio program. Where does it originate? How does it get on the air? How is it sent acros sthe country? What does a television program look like?
The answers to these and other questions pertaining to the radio industry will be found by many Summer Session students tomorrow when they attend the annual “Trojan Day” at the Hollywood studios of the Columbia Broadcasting system.
At a specially reduced price of 30 cents for the one day, which may be obtained upon the presentation of a registration card, S.C. students wil be guided through Columbia Square on tours which start every half hour from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.
TELEVISION TO BE SHOWN
Choicest attraction of the day will be a television demonstration which has ben arranged from 2 p.m. until 10 p.m. especially for the Trojan visitors, according to a station official. This will show the complicated equipment, the sets, and the odd makeup which are required for television broadcasts.
The visitors will first be escortr-d through the “streamlined” studios, which have been acclaimed as San Pedro harbor, interesting port of call for beautiful masterpieces of sound engineering, yachts, trim tankers, proud liners, home of old sailing vessels They have been accousticaiiy turned into motion picture sets, and today important as a seated and “Moated” away from naval base, will be seen at close view by Trojan summer a11 side and ground walls to insure students who attend a harbor tour to be made next Saturday a complete absence of vibrations.
