Merle Norman won't just be the name on cosmetics after today. The $36-million, six-story Merle Norman Pavilion will be dedicated this evening at Santa Monica Hospital Medical Center, which is also celebrating its 60th anniversary.
To mark the occasions, the 60-person Los Angeles Doctor's Symphony will perform, and such prominent Westside restaurants as Scratch, Camelions, Gilliland's and Gladstone's will cater a party honoring J. B. Nethercutt, chief executive officer of Merle Norman Cosmetics.
