Newscopy: "Taking shape today above the gold ballroom of the Palace Hotel is the soaring steel framework for the $225,000 'Radio Center' being erected as the new San Francisco headquarters of the Columbia Broadcasting Company. Unusual quiet marks work of erection, as welding operation - illustrated here by the flaming torch of Bridgeman Sil Bergess - replaces much of riveting process."
