In addition to her other unique features, CA-37 had a unique arrangement for the intake vents aft of the second stack. She had 2 square vents rising vertically out of the deck and curving aft. The trash burner and movie projection booth were between the vents. Steve Wiper's New Orleans class cruisers book has better photos, but here is one from online. https://www.navsource.net/archives/04/037/0403710.jpg
