TOWN HALL DESIGNS
3500 Visitors
1 More than 3500 persons have visited the display of i entries for the town hall architectural competition (being held in the Durham Street Art Gallery until the end of next week.
Cr. H. G. Hay, chairman of the City Council’s town hall committee, said yesterday that the exhibition had been opening at noon to allow lunch-hour visits. The evening hours were 7.30 p.m. to 9.30 p.m., so it was not thought necessary to keep the exhibition open after 4.30 p.m., although visitors to the gallery at that time were not hurried out, he said.
He was answering a correspondent of “The Press” who asked that the gallery should be open until 6 p.m. At the week-end the gallery would be open today from 2 p.m. to 4.30 p.m., and from 7.30 p.m. to 9.30 pm., and from 2 p.m. to 4.30 p.m. tomorrow, Cr. Hay said. On week days next week the hours would again be noon to 4.30 p.m. and 7.30 p.m. to 9.30 p.m. The exhibition would close next Saturday.
