The silt from the lake bottom will be used to fill in an area where construction has already started on another modern . I 12-unit apartment house. As the lake level drops about 7-feet, and the apartment house rises; there are other crews at nork on the Assembly Grounds on i other major projects, In prepara !tion for the 1953 season. A grad ing crew are making a large park ing lot back of the new adminis tration building, and behind the 'Terrace Motel other workmen are | erecting new quarters for the ho tel servants. Dr. 11. G Allen, superintendent, said the water level of the Lake will be lowered enough to drain the upper part of the Lake, so the entire upper part can be dredged. Among the dredging operations, will be construction of a sandy beach near Highway No. 19 for the use of the campers at Camp Adventure. The flood gates were opened Friday, and the lowering of the Lak? level began. A major beautiflcatlon project is also underway on the Lake side of the dam, where a wooded gar den with walkways, and an over look to the falls of the dam will be erected. This project is being sponsored by J. B. Ivey, a summer I resident of the Lake. Mr. Ivey pointed out that too much beauty is being lost in not being able to see tfle falls of the dam. The gar den will be so constructed that visitors can walk out to several points, where benches will be con si ructed, and sit there and watch the water of the lake tumble over i I he spillway. This project is to | be ready for next spring. i in- muut'i ii iit-uiiiiK sysium ui L.ambuth Inn is almost completed, ind a sprinkler system will be in tailed this fall. Plans are to | modernize the hotel for year round jso. A modern kitchen is being installed, and only last week, some 514,000 in new furniture was put j Into the hotel. A new roof was i lecenlly added to the building. The new apartment house which is already under construction is on the opposite side of the street from the two which were finished for the past two seasons. The money for these projects is roming from the general expansion program began several years ago. Dr. Allen said that with the new facilities, and greater recreational advantages, it already begins to look like another banner year for he Assembly. This past summer more than 30,000 visitors were registered at the Lake during the summer season. Allen Rites Held Sunday At Baptist Church W. C.
