He informed those present that due to the manner in which g::avel had been removed in the past and the amount of area involved, it :.as the opinion of those who made the inspection that it would be advisable to make another entrance to the area from "P" on Rose Street. Access at this point •pas not now possible because of the presence of a wood -timber bunkers owned by Mr. A. II. Ywarsky, which were placed directly in the street area of Rose Street between "P" and "G" Streets.
