Schwarz, vice-president of the York company, exclusive sales agents. Yesterday saw several driveways opened thrnnnh the choice shrubbery and one thoroughfare In the recently-opened tract Prospect Drive ready for sewer Installation. Schwarz said. Prospect Drive overlooks the beautiful links of the Claremont Ciolf and Country club, which fashionable property adjoins the 5n-ncre wooldand. formerly known as the P.

E. Bowles estate. our earliest building development will be along this Prospect Drive," said Schwarz. "Although Country Club Drive is now hewn through and ready for Grading will immediately follow. "We are also opening Lincolnshire.

Glenbrook, Beechwood and Yorkshire Drives. We are proceeding as fast, as it is physically possible, so as to enable buyers to build homes and occupy them at the earliest possible date." The recent rains freshened' the woods and added to the charm of Claremont Pines, bringing even more visitors than at the formal opening to the tract, according to York company executives. In order to provide their guests with rooms to study plats and examine plans, a tract office has been established at the gate In the structure once known as the gate lodge, on Broad- way Terrace. A picturesque tile roof arfd other improvements are being Installed" The aromatic scent of woods burning in open hearths now adds an appeal both at the lodge quarters and at the tract headquarters in the Bowles mansion the center of the woods. These fireTaces are fed with the boles of trees removed to make room for roadways; "Many of the valuable shrubs, however, are being transplanted very carefully." said Schwarz.

"Because we early realized that these long-grown and rare plantings constitute one of the attractions of Claremont Pines which we do not believe can be duplicated in the bay district." One the appealing sights at Claremont Pines, according to visitors, is the presence of4nrge convoys of half-tamed quail. Vlem-bers of the York company feed them on the broad lawn in front Qf the old Bowles mansion and the birds have become accustomed to their new friends and evidently ready to welcome new neighbors.
