The entrance is recessed. By JOHN 0. ?. WALLACE A warm, home-like exterior putt this money-saving ranch house in a class by itself. While many a home of modest sue and cost seems coldly func tional, we have one here in which appearances have meant a great deal to the designer, as they will to the owner. The designer, Rudolph A. Ma tern, who specialises in small homes, set out deliberately to keep coats down by keeping the size moderate and putting all the apace to work. "My purpose." he says "was to get a very amall, low-coat home. At the aame time, the house had to provide the number of bed rooms most needed by the ma jority of people. This number is three. "The house also had to provide an interesting exterior and offer an entertainment-living area large enough to dispel any small-house, cramped feeling. "Beyond that, my purpose was to provide an efficient and com fortable home." Louvered Closet Doors A run-down of the plan shows: The habitable area is less than 1,000 square feet. The three bedrooms all have at least five feet of closet space. Com bined, they have 17 feet of closet space? nearly twice the amount re quired by the FHA. All civet doors are louvered, and the larger ones are accordion and fold back on themselves. This allows a large closet to be opened lully without consuming room ?pace. The living and dining areas are end to end to give t "big look" to this one-room arrangement. The third bedroom, which may be used instead as a den or study, is separated from the living-dining area by a floor-to-ceiling sliding wall. With the wall pushed back into its pocket, an expanse of more than 11 feet la thrown open. The sliding wall pocket extends outaide the house and encloaes one side of a rear terrace. The circulation arrangement of the plan creates marked efficiency. Hall apace is kept to a minimum, the bath is located at its most convenient point? and the service entrance leads directly to the kitchen and to the basement stair*.

Thr**-YMr-Otd Put* Ov?r Wall MM The Atlantic Beach town board, meeting at the town hall Friday morning, managed to settle a three - year - old dispute between Russell Cant and A. B. Bau. The diapute wai begun when Mr. Baa* built ? restraining wall that extended into Durham Avenue, an unimproved street leading to the beach. Mr. Bass and his attorney, Har vey Hamilton Jr., said the wall became necessary when Mr. Gant had a bulldozer cut the street down to the level of the beach, leaving Mr Bass' house banging on the edge o t a (and dune. Mr. Gant needed the street cut down so he could drive into a ga rage under his house. He said at the meeting that the wall went so far into the street he had trouble getting out of his garage when cars were parked in the street. Wants Wall Down Mr. Bass, he declared, rented his house to as many as 25 people at a time and their cars blocked him in his garage for hours at a time. He wanted Mr. Bass to tear down the wall and make the street its full width. After a discussion of the prob lem, the commissioners came up with the following solution: Leave the wall as is but put a chain across the street entrance so no cars could get through without a key. Give the key to Mr. Gant so he can use the street as access to his garage. "The street was put in to give people access to the beach," Mayor Alfred Cooper explained, "not to give them a place to leave their cars. Leave plenty of space for people to walk around the chain and get to the water." Offers Parking Lot Mr. Gant told Mr. Bass that he had plenty of space on his yard for a parking lot. He offered Mr. Bass use of the lot for parking for his guests if he would have it cleared off and leveled. County sanitarian A. D. Fulford and county electrical inspector Robert Garner attended the meet ing at the request of Mayor Coop er. The mayor asked the men if they could inspect rental cottages at the beach. He said that many of the houses for rent were in such bad shape they were giving the beach a bad name. Mr. Fulford said he stayed busy doing the necessary jobs of inspecting food handling establish ments. etc. and the county had not seen fit to give him any additional help. He did agree, however, to teach a town policeman how to make a sanitary inspection. He estimated that there were more than 800 houses for rent in the county, a number impossible for him to in spect on an annual basis. Mr. Garner said that he had in spected several houses at the beach and had warned the owners that he would have the current turned off unless they got their houses wired properly. Chairman Reports Zoning committee chairman Harry H. Hill reported that his committee had conducted a hear ing Wednesday on zoning the beach. The proposed zoning or dinance and map were prepared by the League of Municipalities. Mr. Hill said hit committee rec ommended only a few minor changes. Leigh Wilson of the League of Municipalities was present at the meeting and said he would see that the changes were made in time for the town board to call an open meeting and adopt the ordinance at their Aug. t meeting.
