CRYSTAL STUDIO
CROWS POPULAR
Pettis- WKBF Unit on Fourth
Floor Draws Crowds.

III meet you at the Crystal
Studio" is the oft-repeated express
sion among feminine shoppers now
adays, and If you happen to be one
Of the few who has not paid a visit
to the very popular meeting place of
friends from both city and country
prior to and after shoppings tours,
it is time you join this everincreas-
ing group.
Early in the last summer, Pettis-
WKBF crystal studio was created on
the fourth floor of the Washington
street store, in the foreground of the
furniture department. A beautiful
studio, handsomely draped and
deliberately furnished, with all the
modern broadcasting equipment, is
the result Of the vision Of the sta
TONS founders.
Robert B. Gable, president of the
PettiS firm, established one of the
first broadcast studios to be operated
under the roof Of a department
store. 1t is station WFBG, located
at Altoona, Pa, in the William F..
Gable Company department store.
Mr.. Gable is an ardent radio en-
thusiast an long has been identi-
fled with the industry in a promi-
nent manner.
When opportunity presented itself
the Pettis president was prompt to
ally himself with the opening of the
stores crystal studio in conjunction
with the popular local station,
WKBF. Through its publicity the
general public constantly is invited
to see and hear a radio program
broadcast from the fourth-hoor
studio.
Outside the studio are located
comfort-giving chairs and divans
where one may rest and be ent1.-
tanned while waiting to join friends
in other appointments. Programs
are broadcast daily from the Pet
tiS-WKBF studio at 9:15, II a. m.
and 4:30 and 5 p. m.
Countless people have listened to
programs sent to the air, but few of
the great majority get the oppor-
tunity to see and hear the &C, al
broadcast Jsimultaneously.-Adv.

economic distress of the world
rests with American bankers. who
have made ill-advised loans to
foreign countries, President
Hoover said in effect today in an
address before the fourth Pan
American commercial conference.
Repeating from a statement

this money is to be devoted to
productive purposes"
