THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND TUESDAY, MAY 6, JkMHMMMM 1919. PRESS CLUB RENDERS, SERVICE TO ITS OUT OF TOWN MEMBERS Manager Arranges Hotel Accom modations? Reserves Theatre Tickets on Request. - , - , i I. in .. i ee icdoomy Basement When ?Bob" Smith, state manager of the Liberty-loan committee, "passed the buck" to the club manager of th Port land Press clulj a week or so ago, he had no Idea that he was about to. launch the club " upon a settled and definite program of ""friendly service" for the convenience and benefit of its out of town members. But he did, and those of the membership who have had occa sion to avail themselves of the friendly service are glad that Mr. Smith passed the buck. The Liberty loan' manager was flit ting through an Eastern Oregon town when he met a friend in an awful stew. The friend had suddenly been called to San Francisco on business and was compelled to leave Portland the follow ing night to connect with his California engagements. Before he could transact his .California business it , was . neces ary for him to meet and confer with fouv different Portland business men, which he swore was Impossible in the time he had between trains in Port land. - "I can fix it." Bob said, and then he called up the manager of the Press club, gave him the time the Eastern Oregonian would reach Portland, the men lie wanted to meet and the time he had to take his train for SaoFranclsco, and told him to fix things up. The club manager got in touch with the Portland business men, arranged a definite sched ule "of interviews, reserved - a berth on the San Francisco train, and still had sufficient time left for the Eastern Ore gonian to eat a good dinner and go to the movies before his tram lerx. From that incident as a hunch the board of managers of the Press club lias put its friendly service program into operation, Now if out of town mem bers want to go to the theatre on a cer tain niKht the club manager will reserve their tickets for them. If you want business engagements arranged the club manager does that, .too. If they want hotel accommodations secured, that is attended to for them. If they want any friendly service" performed the agency of the club can accomplish they get it for the asking. Feeling that it can give . needed service combined with the conveniences und .privileges of a home club in Port land, in which out of town men may spend their unoccupied time, meet their friends or entertain, them, the board of managers is extending to the prominent men of the state in public and private business life invitations to join the club. as out or town memoera. t '"" lions are being so generally accepted that the club is planning to stage one of its old time "gridiron" dinners dur ing the Rose Festival, at which the new out of town members will be given the "once over" and welcomed into the or ganization with appropriate ceremonies.
