It is sur- rounded by private estates owned by some of the oldest and most substan- tial families of Phil phia. The desira- bility of Haverford as a place of residence has resulted in full occupancy, with wait- ing lists, for the few apartment structures now located in the city. Haverford Col- lege, the Merion Cricket Club, Merion Golf Club and similar well-known insti- tutions, together with the proximity of Bryn Mawr College, the Miss Baldwin Scuool and other educational and social institutions, give Haverford unusual at- tractions as a residential suburb. The Structure The Haverford-Del Rey Apartments will be three stories and basement in height, of Spanish architecture, con- structed of stone, brick, steel and hollow tile. The structure will contain 256 rooms divided into 87 apartments of from 1 to 4 rooms, a lobby, recreation room and garage to accommodate 75 signed to appeal to tenants of the highest grade. ‘The value of the property when com- pleted, as corroborated by a number of independent appraisals which we have obtained from local authorities, is $831,- 000, or more than 150%, of the amount Maturities: Serial annually 2 to 12 years of the bond issue. The annual net earn- ings, after making a liberal allowance for operating expenses and vacancies, are estimated at $95,319, which figure is also confirmed by mdepend:nt appraisals. This is more than 2}4 times the greatest annual interest c.hnrgen and substan- tially 134 times the largest combined in- terest and amortization charges.

Crawford is Sec- retary. Mr. Beam is a member of the contracting firm of Beam-Craven Com- pany and has other substantial interests.

Complete descriptive circular, contain- ing independent appraisals of land, build- ing and earnings, will be sent on request. Investors wishing to make sure of ob- taining the maturities they prefer may make reservations by mail or telegraph.
