CONSERVATORY PROJECT
CONTRACT FOR BUILDING FOUNDATIONS PROFESSOR SHELLEY RETICENT iPeb United Prbss Association) WELLINGTON, Nov. 2. Apart from disclosing that the contract for the foundations of the projected broadcasting and conservatorium building to be erected on the site of the old Museum building had been accepted, J rofessor James Shelley (Director of National Broadcasting), in an interview, said he was not yet prepared to disclose any details of the structure or plans for the establishment of the conservatorium. Professoi Shelley said that the plans would not be available for some time yet, because the original proposals were at present being modified.
The architects for the building are Messrs William M. Page and Stanley W. Fern in association, It is understood that the design of the building was placed in the hands of private architects, because the Government architectural branch of the Public Works Department has so much work on hand that plans could not have been completed there as quickly as desired.
