 Another of Mr. Lakes inspir- ations was converting the Gill man carriage house and private indoor riding track into a ca sino and community club house, work on which is now in progress. The large, oval rid ing enclosure is large enough to erect a full sized tennis court, where tennis, basket ball, squash and other games can be played in the evening, in stormy weather or in winter. These buildings cover an area of about 14,OO0 square feet. The carriage house is a three-story building, on the lower, or. ground floor of which, will be installed the heating plant, a salt water swimming pool 50. feet long, a salt water aquar- ium from which Holsters, and
