District PIAA Baseball champion-
ship make the 1950-51 school year
a banner one for the Beaumont
in achieve-

Fruit-Growers To Picnic
Et Blue Ribbon Orchards
Luzerne County Fruit Growers
will picnic at the Blue Ribbon Cake
Farm August 7 at 1:30.
There will be a demonstration,
and a tour of the 225 acres of
apple trees. Wives and families
are invited.
The farm is located near Hunt-
ington Mills, between Town Hall
and New Columbia. The crop is
used practically exclusively in apple
pies made by the Blue Ribbon Cake
Company.
When Reuben Levy, head of the
organization, bought the orchards
some years ago, he is said to have
brought the first year’s crop home
in his pocket, due to a late freeze
after the apples had set in the
spring, but production has been
heavy ever since.

Plan Carefully
For Cabinets
And Counters
Cabinets and counters occupy
more space in a kitchen than does
any other kind of equipment, says
American Builder magazine.
For this reason, the magazine
adds, arrangement and size of
cabinets and counters should be
carefully planned.
“For greatest efficiency, storage
space in the kitchen should be
planned according to the size of
the family,” American Builder
says. “And, if possible, the ar-
rangement should k# determined
before plannng the placement of
windows. Otherwise, windows can
limit the effectiveness of cabinet
arrangements.”
For a family of four persons,
the building industry publication
recommends a minimum of 5 feet,
3 inches of wall cabinets and 8
feet, 6 inches of base cabinets, in
addition to space for storing din-
nerware.
“When the amount of storage
space to be used is determined,
it is important that this space
be available where it is most
needed,” American Builder adds.
“If appliances are properly ar-
ranged according to recommended
planning principles and if manu-
facturers’ cabinets are used, there
is little chance of érror in estab-
lishing correct availability of
storage space.
“Manufacturers of wood and
metal cabinets, largely responsi-
ble for the rapid progress in de-
velopment and standardization of
kitchen units, today offer inte-
grated units styled to harmonize
with appliances. Cabinets are
available to fit any kitchen re-
quirements and are usually de-
signed to complement work areas.
“Base cabinets under counters
where mixing is done, for exam-
ple, usually have provisions for
the storage of staple items used
in mixing foods, while dinner-
ware storage is usually arranged
in wall cabinets directly above
the serving area.
“Shelves should not be higher
than 72 inches from the floor, and
wall cabinets should not be high-
er than 15 inches above the work
surface of counters.”
American Builder says that
minimum amounts of counter
space as recommended by a re-
cent Small Homes Council study
are 15 inches beside the refrig-
erator, 36 inches at right of sink
bowl, 30 inches at left of sink
bowl, 24 inches beside, or near,
the range, and 36 inches for foo

Modern Laundry
Fits in Kitchen
Modern laundry equipment is
designed to blend well with kitch-
en cabinets and appliances and
the laundry itself can be planned
as an attractive extension of the
kitchen, says American Builder
magazine.
The magazine also says, “Laun-
dry equipment properly arranged
in sequence with necessary coun- °
ters can be effectively used in a
combination laundry-game room,
either on the first floor or in the
basement.
“Ideally, the washer, dryer and
ironer should be arranged accord-
ing to the sequence of their use,
with ample counter space near
for sorting and folding of clothes.
For plumbing economy, one-wall
installation is recommended.”
a Sy THE POST, FRIDAY, JULY 20} 1951 re
a a a
Because of its large number of
“livable features,” this house has
been chosen as Plan No. 40 by
American Builder magazine, 30
Church St., New York 7, N. Y.
American Builder says:
“Entrance to a generous pow-
der room is accessible from the
reception ‘hall. It is also handy to
the kitchen. Economy is consid-
ered by the fact that the fixtures
back up to the bathroom wall. A
sliding cupboard door closes the
opening between powder room
and adjoining hall. Lavatory for
powder room and bath is a built-
in type with cupboards below.
“China cabinet and plant shelf
divide dining room and reception
area. Opposite wall of reception
area contains a small plant box
with recessed light above. Curtain
valance over living room windows
provides space for ornamental
fluorescent lighting of ceiling. An
extended brick facing is obtained
in the living room and terrace
through the use of a double fire-
place serving both rooms. Book-
cases fill in the remaining wall
area on fireplace side of living
room.” ~
The home is’ an attractive ex-
ample of the modern ranch style
of design in which the architect,
Walter T. Anicka, has specialized.
House Chosen ior ‘Livable Features’
In order to take full advantage of
the opportunity for achieving an
individualized exterior color plan,
the architect suggests basing the
entire color scheme on the solid
or blended hue selected for the
.asphalt shingle roof.
The dwelling has a total living
area of 1,312 square feet and a
volume of 18,368 cubic feet, fig-
ures useful in estimating con-
struction cost.

a complete home planning packet

able from American Builder, 30

William Murphy, more familiarly
known as “Red”, 23 and a resident
of Noxen, developed a sudden

Bystanders heard him say that he
was going to swim to Sunset, and
watched him take off.
Murphy called for, help, and

Cement Shingle Tabs
In areas where farm buildings
in exposed positions are subject
to winds of demolition force, as-
phalt shingle roofs can be made
windtight by cementing down the
shingle tabs. The cement holds
the tabs down so that wind can-
not blow underneath to lift the
roofing from the roof deck.
_ Quick-setting asphalt cement
is used and can be applied with
either a putty knife or a caulking
gun. Place a spot of cement about
the size of a 50-cent piece under
the center of the exposed portion
of each shingle tab and press the
tab down firmly. Do not bend the
