An elevated view looking across the auditorium and towards the dedication ceremony for Los Angeles County General Hospital. A hundred or so people sit in the audience along the bottom portion of the image. Left-of-center, an aisle cuts through the audience. The audience members all face away from the camera and face towards the stage at the front of the auditorium. The stage is situated off-center to the right. A man stands at a podium at the center of the stage and addresses the audience. Other participants sit on stage behind him. A variety of trees line the back of the stage. Along the top edge, bunting hangs down over the stage.
