Roy Scrivner Reveals
PX Restaurant Plans
Plans for the operation of Ex­
change Restaurants which now­
embrace more than a score of Ex­
change Service locations through­
out the Post are rapidly nearing
completion under the direction of
General Manager, Roy H. Sehriv-
ner.
Most recently opened and doing
a thriving business, was the main
Exchange Restaurant in the two-
story building across from central
Field House. The second of the
major Exchange Restaurant units
is in the Hospital Area and will
be opened within the next few days.
In addition, kitchens are at pres­

bor. During his 20 months’ stay in
the Islands, Scrivner was Coordin­
ator-in-charge of Housing and

cific Naval Air Bases.

brought in cadre by him to Camp

er part of an extremely varied ca­
reer in various feeding operations
from pharmacy fountain to trans­
ocean steward work. In this latter
capacity, he sailed the seven seas
circling the globe several times
before settling down for the sim­
ple life ashore.
I He was then assistant of a drive-
in Sandwich Stand, manager of a
jEteak House, ran his own Roof
•Garden Cafe and unit manager of a
’large Los Angeles Catering con­
cern before going to Hawaii.

1— No compliment too high can
be paid the jobs done by the mess
sergeants, cooks and the kitchen
help who turned out a dinner which
every hand acclaimed “the best
chow you could set teeth into.”
Many, in fact most, of the cooks
worked all of the day and the night
before and during Thanksgiving
morning to give us our turkey and
trimmings, cooked to a gourmet's
taste.

times” rolled back with some 450
men sent out by Florence Coardy
Merriam, hostess at Service Club
No. 2 and a smaller group by Miss
Venold Gibson from Service Club
No. 1, as dinner guests of the good
folk in Salem, Corvallis and a few
in Albany who were Thanksgiving
day hosts to soldiers.
