Broadcasting Live...

The pictured article is from the Los Angeles Times, September 5, 1924 edition. At the time, one of the first radio stations in Los Angeles, KHJ, would broadcast live entertainment with local personalities, entertainers and bands. One such group was the 'Gaylord Trio' which featured Lorena Wade. Lorena was the original editor of the Gaylord's monthly publication 'The Buzzer' that eventually became the 'Gaylord Glimpses.' She was also married to one of the original owners of the Gaylord, P.B. Fletcher.

The article reads in part, 'We envy the residents of the Gaylord Apartments, who can descend to the lounge of the Gaylord and listen to the trio give one of its delightful hours of music.' We try to keep this spirit of entertainment alive today through our residents and their many talents.
