furnished. Joining it are the most
modernly equipped kitchens in the
country, committee members assert.

kitchens. One for the cafeteria,
situated on the south end of the
banquet hall balcony, at which noon
and evening meals are served to
members every day except Sunday,
Is most popular feature. Six hun
