Since the war, Salem has sud

young men with ideas and with
the energy to ) transform their
ideas into" being. And many of
"these newcomers are starting en
tirely new businesses offering resi
dents new services and conven-
Typical of these latter day
pioneers are the Torgeson bro

Settled in their new home at
1740 Berry st, the three youths
looked about for a livelihood.
Donald and Ted are veterans and
they were thinking about this
thing "free enterprise" for. which
they had fought, so the natural
thing was a business of their own
Together with Stan, who had been
too young for the services, the
brothers decided to -start a snack
. service for garages, workships and
I ( factories around Salem.
f First they contacted three lo
cal garagemen and found that
such a service would be appreci
ated. Then they pitched In to reno
vate their home basement into a
clean, efficient' kitchen. Within
three weeks their snack service
was in operation.
Panel Track Used
WithMrs. Torgeson to help
; them, the youths made sand
wichesgood sized saidwiches
that a mechanic or factory work
er could eat with satisfaction
cookies, doughnuts and coffee.
They began deliveries in a small
panel truck, getting to the work
ing places in mid-morning and
midnafternoon. The sandwiches
and pastry were individually
wrapped- in wax paper and the
coffee was kept hot in large ther
mos Jugs.
After the first - three months
more chops were added to the
route and the demand was so
great that doughnuts and pastry
had to be ordered from commer
cial bakers. Today the brothers
have two delivery trucks and ser
vice the battery plant in West Sa
lem and six local garages. Future
plans call for their own restaurant
and a super snack service with
. hot noon lunches, and service to
all of Salem's factories, work
shops and garages.
