PLANS FOR NEW 1ZB STUDIOS NEAR FINALITY
PLANS are likely to be announced in a few weeks’ time for new premises for 1ZB, Auckland. — It is understood they will be built on a section now vacant at the back of His Majesty’s Theatre. Almost since the introduction of commercial broadcasting 1ZB has been seriously handicapped by lack of space. Various schemes have been suggested from time to time, the first that premises in Queen Street, adjacent to the St. James Theatre, would be converted to use as studios. City Council restrictions were said to have prevented this. More recently rumour was current that new studios were to be built on the waterfront, near the Pan-American Airways building. This is apparently untrue. Mr. B. T. Sheil, national advertising manager, was in Auckland last week, presumably to discuss plans. Commercial Broadcasting executives are making no definite announcement at present, however.
