 with Dinner, Dance

The Gastineau Cafe, for years one of the leading catering places in the city, was reopened today under the management of Robert T. Kaufmann, well-known local restauranteur. This evening, be- ginning at pm, the formal open- ing will be held
 A special dinner in honor of the occasion was prepared. There was to be orchestra music. and dancing in the lobby of the hotel.

 MT. Kaufmann is not new in the restaurant field in this city. He l owned and operated the Club Cafe for sometime, recently selling out the business. Since then he was induced to take over and reopen | the Gastineau.
