The 6th National Home Show was held at the Pan ljacific Auditorium, Los Angeles, from June 14-24 with more than Z)0,0@ attending during the 1l-day exposition.

The model house, the beautiful Southlander, which was one of the popular attraction of the show is a rustic modern dwelling of two thousand square feet. It consists of a living room, dining room, kitchen, two bedrooms, a lanai easily converted into a -third bedroom, three baths. two patios, a breezeway and a garage with a hobby room. The interior decorations and furnishings were done by pat Sailors of Sloane's and the colors were done by William Manker, nationally famous color consultant. The building was built by the Sentinel Construction Company.

Because of the overwhelming interest in the Southlander, the model home will remain open for the public indefinitely after the closing of the home show. Managing Director Carl F. Kratz declared, "many persons mav not have had an opportunity to inspect the Southlander during the exposition, and many of the thousands who did may want to return and go through it rnore ldisurely.',

The Southlander will be open from 1 :00 p.m. to 1O:00 p.m. daily. The admission price is 75 cents with all proceeds going to the American Cancer Society.

The popular hillbilly comedienne, Judy Canova, along with Russ Morgan and his music makers and a star-studded revue, presented special matinee performances Saturday and Sunday afternoon, in addition to the regular shows at 7 :A0 and 9:00 p.m. nightly.

From the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Home show brought 29 masterpieces by American artists valued at more than $200,000, which were on display. There were over 200 exhibits and displays shou'ing products pertaining to every facet of the American home with the accent on Southern California living.

The accompanying photographs show the exhibits of the U.S. Plywood Corporation, E,. J. Stanton & Son and American Lumber & Treating Co. Roddis California Inc. and Cal Distributing Co. also had attractive exhibits at the show. Photographs are by Warren Hoyt.
