HandsomeStranger. please accept my apology. I ordinarily check the attribution, but I was a bit hasty, considering the racy subject. As noted, often the obvious is wishful thinking.
I might have known that modest Manhattan Beach was so safe it probably didn't even need life guards!

By the 1930s, Manhattan had a bustling downtown area with various shops and plenty of parking. The La Mar Theater soon opened, and represented one of the notable art deco structures in California. Built at a cost of $65,000, the La Mar was a local landmark until it was leveled in 1978. http://www.southbaydigs.com/spotlight-manhattan-beach/
