Paddock of California

The swimming complex of the future starts with a "Pipeless Pool" that utilizes Paddock's exclusive IFRS System to eliminate buried construction time and simplify operating routine. The IFRS System also saves time and money on renovation.

It is further enhanced with a virtually maintenance free, entirely non-corrosive filter . . . the Paddock Flowtrol Filter.

And best of all, it is a pool for 12 months of swimming with Paddock's Skywall Natatorium. A bright, gay enclosure whose sidewalls and roof open to let in Summer's breezes and close snug to keep out Winter's coldest blast.

Let the creative pool specialists help you plan your pool project. Their 50 years of pool experience have helped others obtain economy and quality through modem engineering.

Gametime's Deck Tennis court

Ever had the urge to play tennis in the middle of the winter? Now you can with Game Time's Deck Tennis Court. Game Time, Inc. of Litchfield, Michigan, is the world's largest manufacturer of park and playground equipment.

This means more playing time per hour with greater opportunities for health-building participation by large numbers of youngsters."

Available in two sizes,1 1/2' from the ground, and 3' from the ground, the Eagle's Nest is just right for active, small youngsters. They can climb and romp to their heart's content in complete safety.

This is equally effective on waters treated with chlorine gas, sodium hypochlorite, H.T.H. or chlorinated isocyanuric powders. Operating on 115V 60 cycle single phase it occupies but a small space and is completely enclosed in a moisture resistant case which can be locked if one so desires.
