In our travels the past year we traversed over
twenty thousand miles of U.S . highways. Long
distance travel today is such a pleasure, thanks
to the tollroads that are starting to crisscross
the country like a giant mobile circulatory system.
We've been over the Indiana and Ohio collroads,
the Pennsylvania turnpike ( with it's fabulous
tunnels), the New Jersey turnpike, and -the
magnificent New York thruway that makes travel
from New York City to Niagara Falls a breeze.
Out west we blitzed (at 55 M. P. H.) over the
Will ,Rogers and Turner turnpikes in Oklahoma,
and the highways of New Mexico and Arizona
where, even when the sign says "two-lane high
way ahead", th'e road is comparable to our four
lanes here in Illinois . Out in California they
have the freeways (the most fantastic of all), and
down in Texas we found Dallas and Fort Worth
closer than ever (travel -wise, that is), thanks to
the new tollroad.
And now we have them in, around, over, under,
and through Chicagoland. Let's see how the new
tollroads are to travel. You've stopped at a toll
plaza (you can't miss them; they're all over the
place) and you've read the sign chat tells you
maps are available. The courteous attendant
(and they are: we've found them that way on all
tollroads) has handed you your map, after you've
paid your toll, of course.
At this point I'd like.to recommend that before
venturing on to an Illinois tollroad you hire a
trained navigator who has a ver y large magnifying
glass, because the map you receive can fit into
your wife's compact along with her swimming
suit.
Let's say you've reached the spot on the map
that says, "See inset B". Because you can't
possibly figure out the signs on the road, nor
can you tell at a glance it tbe map what to do,
you pull over to the side of the road. The top of
"Inset B" says, "Northbound to Wisconsin next
exit O'Hare lnter-ch'ge".
That apostrophe in ''interchange'' saved the
taxpayers the price of one-and-a-half letters.
Below t/Je aforementioned bulletin, which
doesn't concern us anyhow because we think we're
going south, are a bunch of curving snakes .
These, I presume, indicate cloverleafs, but to
follow them you have to be a chinese puzzle fan.
These dotted-line snakes and solid-line snakes
run all over Lake Street and North Avenue, and
up and down the Tri-State Tollway and the
Congress Expressway, which I thought ran EastWest, but at this point it goes North and South.
Just below this mess is St. Charles Road, a
quiet little road that has never caused anyone
any trouble, but now it too is covered and
surrounded by dotted-line snakes. Between this
point and the big black snakes, dotted-line
snakes, and solid-line snakes intersection
(which apparently is the major intersection of the
whole shebang) is a little cloverleaf made up of
dotted-line snakes and dotted-line-with-solidblack-squares snakes. I still haven't figured where
this one leads.
Of course, there are signs to help you out of
yourdilemna-signsthatread, "U.S. 41, S.R. 152,
U.S. 6, U.S. 30 East, S.R. 152 North, U.S. 12,
U.S. 20 East." And the Indiana end of the TriState Tollroad, if you follow the signs, you end
up in the forest primevil---a thicket of woods.
It won't be too long before we've all figured it
out, and j use about chat time, the engineers will
tear it all up, and build new· ones to once again
challenge our stupid little minds.

PRESIDENT, HUMAN RELATIONS
COUNCIL OF NILES TOWNSHIP
We are starting another year. The chant, "Peace on Earth , Good
Will toward Men" comes ringing fro m the corridors of ChristJ11 as to sound
the hor.>es that will move us during the year .
There are many organizations in our com munity that will be w·ork~
ing throughout the year to realize our hopes for peace ... churches,
synagogue·s, schools , and civic organizations. But th e only oraanization
that covers the whole township and cuts across all religious and raci al
lines i's the Human Relations Counci l of Niles ToUinship.
The :,urpose of the Council is re:11arlrnbly si111 :1le: (l) to foster and
promote better human relations in Niles Township by :1roviding an estab~
lished and recognized medium fo r the exchange of opinion, the sharin g of
information , and the rooling of resources and efforts of existing organizations
in the solving of community problems as they arise ; (2) to carry on a con~
tinuing program of study, education and action , through existing organizations ,
des igned to promote unity and understanding, and to foster ~1 ore adequate
solutions to community problems involving human relations ."
The council ,erforms no magic deeds and in its brief life of one
and one~half years it has barely started its Uiork. It stands / or tl1os e qwili~
ties in human life that alone can inhe rit the earth . .. the fr irit11 al virility
that alone can guarantee peace among men .
·
i
Those of us involved in the Counc il's work feel t~at the prese nce
among us of this sentine l of human rights wi ll make our community a better
place in which to live and rear our families .

THE VILLAGER
,. :The Evanston Story
Urge·
d
Elsewhere on this page are capsule arguments for and against
the city form of government - the Evanston form, at least.
The only conclusion we can come to is that, by all comparisons
extant, cities simply are more expensive than villages. But this
is only part of the picture.
We recall a maxim to the effect that "he governs best who
governs least." We might rephrase this, in the light of the Jan.
20 election to determine whether we want to change our village
status, to something like this: "the fewer governors, the better
the government."
The proponents of the city - ward idea base most ,of their c.ase ,
on the premise that Skokians need "sombody to see." This is
just another way of saying, "we need someone to put pressure
on when we want something."
And this'is what we surely would have: government by pressure
groups. This gets government into the field of barter. The merits
of a cause become secondary to its popularity in a given ar.ea.
An alderman would be incline1 to trade his vote in the city
counci 1 for the votes of his constituents come election time.
This is natural; he is their "someone to see." This is the practice, also - and is why buffoons like Paddy Bauler of Chicago
make a sideshow of city council meetings.
l~n't it much more desi~able, from the standpoit of the en-tire
village, to have our elected . officials look at the whole picture?
What is right for northeast Skokie, for example, may be wrong
for the other five-sixths of the village. Village trustees, elected
at large, necessarily must consider what is right for all of us.
If they displease a majority of us, then we simply vote them all
out of office.
But how much more difficult it is to remove. a majority of 16
alderman! You have but to look at the account of the Evanston
situation. Aldermen completely out of step with the majority of
Evanston's citizens - but well ensconced in their own neighborhoods - C?-n remain in office forever.
The Evanston people voted in a city form of government for
far different reasons t ban are advanced as arguments for a pro. posed city of Skokie. Faced with a large influx · of Negro residents,
Evanston - people simply gerrymandered them into one ward so
that their voices would be foretler ineffectual in t_he city council.
The bleeding heans who claim "minority" groups need "someone to see" in Skokie, and who point to Evanston with such
pride, would do well to review the Evanston history. What's to
prevent this from happening to the "newcomers" in our new
neighborhoods? For that matter, what's to prevent it from happening to the '' oldtim..ers'' in the old part of town'?
So what would we gain? Equal representation of every neighborhood- as the rallying cry of the Skokie Civic Federation puts
it? Possibly. We doubt it.
More economic government? All evidence points to the contrary.
A more efJicient form of government? Definitely not. The most
efJicient form of government is government by one person. Every
person you aid after that might contribute more in the way of
broader representation and outlook- but it makes administration
clumsier, and policy-making decisions wind up being compr9mises.
Skokie now has six trustees, and they seldom are
unanimous'
agreement on poli~y. The area of difference among 16 aldermen
obviously would be much greater,
Less politicking? Hardly, with a system that makes every
alderman's position dependent on pleasing his own neighbors to the detriment, if necessary, of other areas.
More responsiveness to the "will of the people"? Far less.
We'll guarantee that if the city form carries aid a majority of
Skokie's voters are dissatisfied with its administrators, removing
them from offi't.e will be exactly 16 times <;is hard: There will
never be a clear-cut mandate to the city administration. A month
or two ago the people in the Sharp Corner district got together
and by sheer weight of numbers prevented erection of a motel
in their area. How successful would such an uprising be under
a ward plan? Extremely successful, we 'll wager, with the dis•
trict's two aldermen. But why would t,he other 14 aldermen give
a hoot?
· So it all boils down to this: by test, we have the most efficient
i;
most economical, most responsive form of government possible
for a community the size of Skokie. There may be an advantage
or two to the city form of government, but the disadvantages far
outweight any possible benefits.
And in any event, we know what we have. If we change, we're
simply setting sail into dark waters with no clear conception of
our destination, or exactly why we're going.
This seems an extraordinarily dangerous undertaking. The
Villager recommends a flat "NO" vote on Jan. 20.

Al I other Th-eatre & Spart.s Events
Because the city of Evanston is pointed to with pride by those
advocating the city form of government for the village of Skokie,
we are reprinting here two entirely different views of Evanston.
One is a letter to the editor we received froni the Henry Wolfs.
Mr. Wolf is an official of the Skokie Caucus Party and an advocate of the city form of government.
The other is based on the verbatim remarks of Mr. Charles E.
Claypool of the Evanston Committee for Good Government at a
meeting last week. Mr. Claypool and a host of other outraged
Evanstonlans are attempting to change that city's form of government in the April election.
The W
olfs' letter follows:
Between now an'd January 20th, the voters of Skokie are going
to be bombarded u;ith "informatioTT" about the city form of govern•
ment. Much of this will be of an emotional nature urging them to
"preserve" our village status and completely ignoring the perti•
nent facts. The facts are that any form of government can be
used to the benefit of any given community or, on the other han.d,
can become corrupt, inefficient or irresponsible. Good or bad
government is not a result of the form in which it operates, but
the integrity and knowledge - or lack of it- of the men and
women who administer it. This is proved by the many respected,
well run , communities using the city form of government, such as
Evansto,; and Park Ridge, as opposed to the usage of the city
form in Chicago.
Here are some of Mr. Claypool's remarks:
We are all greatly concerned about the increase in the cost
cf our city government. Our city-manager recently made a state•
ment which was 'printed in the Evanston Review ( Dec. 25, 1958
p. 7) to the e /feet that our city tax rate had decreased from 1. 030
in 1954, to an estimated .908 in 1958. That sounds fine, doesn't
it? jj ut have you ever compared our city's tax rate with the rates
paid in other communities? It's really quite an eye·cpener. To
think that an old, established community like Evanston should
have to tax its residents far in excess of the tax rates of other
newer towns - towns that don't begin to have the fine facilities
we have ,e njoyed for years, but in most cases are just getting
around to .- building them and doing so at Jar less cost, apparently,
to the taxf]a'>,'f!TS. in, 'those towns, than the cost to us of maintain•
ing our established facilities.
'
Our city's tax rate not only is almost double the average rate
of the mayor towns, but it's about 70% higher than the average
tax rate in the other city-manager-run towns in this vicinity. In
fact, EVANS1ON HAS A HIGHER MUNICIPAL TAX RATE Tf/AN

NONE. I seem to hear a voice from the past that keeps saying
something to me about a promise of more "economical" govern·
ment.
(After citing figures to prove his point, Mr. Claypool went on
to bemoan the . fact that "when they (the aldermen) ignore you
(the' people of Evanston) then you have the job of electing a new
majority to the council responsive to your will, which, to take
Evanston as a theoretical example, would mean the election of
ten new men out of an eighteen man council.")

One of the most rewarding aspects of being a
member of the fourth estate is the opportunity it
affords for meeting · interesting and wonderful
people .
Demetrios A. l\lichalaros, the Greek poet,
editor of Athene . Magazine, and whose latest
book "The ~linoan: ' was reviewed in this coiumn ,
is a shy, !:?Oft spoken , modest gentleman. His
thoughts and words come forth like the sun
slowly rising over a hazy morning.
In answer to a question put to him , Michalaros
had this to say i
"You ask. me if there is an y poetry in the
world today ---~ons idering the wholesale abandonment of the arts in these more recen t decades
by a. harassed humanity and a missile - mad
worlds - poetry ne v er ceased to be and nev e,
will-poetry has wings and is an expression of
the true befog- bur liv es are a continuous series
o f aspirations - Holy dreams which belong to a
world that is not real- the world of the poet."
Covering a show at the Merchandise Mart is
like bucking up against rush hour traffic on the
outer drive. All •that is needed for a three or
four hour coverage of activity in this world
within a world is shoe soles made of iron , strong
legs , sharp elbows, four hands, and a never
fading smile on your face.
One should carry an overnight case when
traveling from the 5econd to the 16th floor. We
could have gone to ~Jilwaukee in less time than
it took for us to make that trip.
But there w ere many exciting things happen·
ing at the /Jome Furnishing Sho w, particularly
the cocktail party the Mart gave for members of
the press . Ed Pazdar is a delightful host, ev en
if some of his guests did leave the soiree in a
horizontal position .
We seem to be constantly running into ~lrs.

Jack Nor dee n
'REBEL WITH A CAUSE'
Hero of
Cuban Revolution
Fidel Castro
by MORT KAPLAN
As Fidel Castro , Cuban rebel leader who
waged his own Five Years War against deposed
Presiden t-Dictato r Batista, finally parades
triumpha ntly through the streets of the Latin
American nation , close by - if not at hi s elbowls 20 year old J oho Clifford (Jack) Nordeen.
When Jack Nordeen is not ~ngaging in revolutions, he takes his mail at 91 25 Marniora, Morton
Grove.
An amazing story , in the most ei'.citing
fictional tradition , attaches itself to the blond
Morton Grove youth who left the sanctity of
comforta ble suburban living to align himself
with a cause in which he believed .
Jack , accordin g to his mother, Mrs. Clifford
Nordeen, took a Florida vacation last year. It
w~s this v~cation that spawned a revolutio nary
out of an 10tense young man barely out of his
teens.
"He was always fascinate d by politics ,
people a nd history, '' adds Mrs. Nordeen. She
explained that he !_IJa de friends with some
Cubans in Miami and they intereste d him in the
plight of the people in their country.
W
hen Jack Nordeen returned to Morton Grove
he was convince d as to the rights and wrong~
of the Cuban internal situation ... convince d
that Castro was right, Batista wron'g and the
masses wronged. He studied Cuban history and
tradition with the characte ristic zeal of deter·
mined youth. Bu.t there was, indeed, a differenc e
between Jack Nordeen and contempo raries of
his 20 year old world. Where they might leave
off, he was just beginnin g.
26 of July
As the story is pieced together, Jack read
a pamphlet describin g the activitie s of "26 of
July," Castro's fund-rais ing arm in the United
States. It was this group that sent food, clothing
and medical supplies to the rebels and served
as a propagan da force for the rebel chieftain
and his army.
-The date, July 26, represen ts Castro's initial
attack against the B atista regim e, durin g wh i ch
he was captured and held prisoner temporar ily.
It is th e Symbol of the Castro movemen t and
rebel troops display the date on their uniforms.
Nordeen attended meetings of this group. He
spoke no Spanish, though, and a t the meetings
little or no English was spoken.
Accordin g to "Fred" Diaz , also a member of
the club , and himself a Morton Grove resident
even the jokes had to be translate d for Jack
someone always would sit with him and interpret .
But Jack Nordeen wasn't joking, as everyone
was soon to find out. Diaz recalls it was hard
for the members of "26 of July" to understan d
the fiery enthusias m of an otherwis e mildmannered young native born American for their
cause. · He had no relatives in Cuba , nor friends ,
nor even acquainta 11ces. He had never been
there himself, and so it was natural that they
regarded him with skeptica l eye. Most of them
had some Cuban ties , filial or otherwis e.
Nordeen soon displaye d a fervor, however,
tha-t only comes to one who believes strongly
in what he is doing. It soon became obvious

One of the' many meetings of the Chicago branch of "26 of Jul y, "
is shown above . President of th / mov ement in Chicago, Serapio
Montejo, implored the gathering for greater efforts in behalf of
Castro's ar.my.
\
to the group that J a ck Nordeen was dead serious.
It was a short time after Nordeen began attending meetings that he dropped his bombshell.
He wa:s going to Cuba . There was nothing that
his parents, the membership of "26 of July" or
anyone else could do . to dissuade him.
·
He would go to Cuba, somehow manage to
bridge the 600 miles from Havana to Castro's
Sierra Maestra mountain headquarters , and take
up arms with the bearded followers of Fidel
Castro in the Cuban civil war.
The trip would be frought with the pitfalls of
hazardous . terrain an·d Batista's army and secret
police. They took a dim view of any native
Castro sympathizers , let alo.n e a "one man
invasion from Morton Grove,'' whose purpose
pure and simply was to fight a dictatorial rule
that shackled a nation .
Nordeen was briefed. He had instructions,
rendezvous points, enough money to see him
through for a short period of time . .. and little
else.

It was September, 1958. He went to Mjami ,

informed of the game-legged (Jack has a slight

When Nordeen arrived in Cuba, all modern

the ability to prove it was in danger. Jack
had the · purpqse , but no ostensible reason [Of'
being in the Latin A merican "vesuvius ."
Needing a few "breaks , " as they say, he
took a gamble and boarded a bus lea:ving for
Bayame. How far he could have gotten is
questionable. The fact remains that Nordeen
got his "break" in the form of a Batista army
sergeant .w ith an· intense interest in learning
English customs, language and tradition.
Nordeen stationed himself protectively near
the sergeant for the entire trip. Ea;ch time the
bus was boarded for search, the sergea~t waved
inspecting police and soldiers away from ·his
traveling cbmpanion. When the two reached
J)ayamo , Nordeen bought his compaii.ion a beer

the Sierra Maestras. The trail of the "Americano"
evaporated in the veritable "puff of smoke. "
Castro is reported to have remarked later
that "this was the first time a Batista soldier
ever gave a rebel safe conduct to our lines . "
The story of the boy· who duped a dictator's
army was retold a hundred times around Castro
campfires , and served to fan rebel hearts ,
already flaming with a cause.
The entire set of circumstances under which
Jack Nordeen left .America and got to Castro is
is said to have shored up the spirits of Castro
followers.

a congregational section i n
what is Chicagoland's finest

congregation are now able to
secure family estates in this
modern, artistically landscaped
burial ground, which has done
away with unsightly tombstones
and crowded, uninspired conditions so often seen in older
cemete.ries.
"Our loved ones will repose
in serenely peaceful surroundings ," he continued. "What's
more , the officers of Shalom
Memorial Park will return to
the congregation for its use
a portion of the sale price of
each family estate as a contribution. The present 1 ow
prices are guaranteed to memers for a short period of time ."

Dear Sir:
In connection with the debate
concerning the proposed change
in the form of our local govern ment, two arguments against
the ward plan have appeared
so far in your paper.
One, advanced by Mr. M.
Krier, opposes the change
because "it is too expensive"
and "will just lead to trouble."
In regard . to the expense involved, the real issue is what
kind -of a local government
the money ,will buy us; if it
will buy a better than ~he one
we have now, then the money
will be well spent. There is
not much in' Mr. Krier' s statement in the way of an objective
defense of our presentsystem,
and to be opposed to a change
only because of a temporary
expense and of a somewhat
more expensive way of running
it is , in my opinion, not too
valid. It is c~mmon knowledge
that one gets what one is
paying for. .•
As to the ass·e rtion that a
DO
ment and I wish Mr. Krier
would tell us more precisely
what trouble might be expected.
Dear Sir:
A great many children enjoyed a Merry Christmas this
year, complete with unexpected
dolls, games and other toys,
because of the generosity of
the warm-hearted people in the
Niles Twp. area. The success
of the ''Toys for Tots'' . program
certainly reflects the friendly
spirit of your community.
Those of us in "B" Company,
1
9th Infantry Battalion, United
States Marine Corps Reserve,
i would like to take this means
of Glenview
i to thank everyone who donated
(Southern Baptist Convention)
toy s to "Toys for Tots." We

each of you personally. We

We would particularly like
to thank the men of the Skokie
Fire Department and the participating Shell Oil Dealers.
Our deep appreciation is
expressed to the Villager and
all the people on your staff.
Your support was a most ·important factor in the success of
the 1958 "Toys for f Tots"
campaign.
The entire experience has
been, for us, most satisfying.
Again, our thanks to everyone.

The second argument against,
the ward plan was advani:ed
in your editorial in the December 18th issue and is of a mfre
fundamental nature . The change
Dr. Harvey further disclosed
that fi.re inspector Pat Seul
to· a more representative system
is not good according to the · had recommended installation
of heat detectors in stairwells,
editorial because it will' 'divide c 1osets, and all unused , enth e village into eight little closed places throughout the
factional communities which building and that bids were
would continually vie wi th
being received for installatim
rrrent, " I note that the same
argument could be advancea
against the compos1t1on of
ices right away.
D
As it is, the first question
which comes to mind is:
trouble for whom.
and following this l j n e of
reasoning we could be better
off in electing our senators
and representatives at large ,.
And yet the Fathers of our
Constitution have prefer~d in
their wisdom our present sy stem
to any o.ther and have set a
pattern for the make-up of a
government for and by the
people.
In concluding I want to
assure you that I am eagerly
anticip ating
the arguments
the change which a s indica ted
in the s ame editoria l, you will

Win Ice Skating
Pond Maintenance
The Skokie Park Board has
agreed to "partially" maintain
an ice skating rink at LeeWright Park.
Wright Park, and . asked for
full maintenance of ice skating
facilities from the Park Board.
Although the Park Board
could not meet the requests
of th'e residents for full maintenance of Lee Wright's ice
skating rink, a compromise
agreement was reached that ·
Lee-Wright Park would receive
snow re~oval services for the
balance of the season by using
the village's snow removal
trucks or, whenever necessary,
by contracting with a private
party.
About 35 residents of the
Lee-Wright area appeared at
a Park Board meeting room
in the Devonshire Park Recreational Center last Wednesday .
Herb Koehler, · 4843 Wright,
Ter. and Gus Dallas, 85.05
Niles Center Road, presented
a .signed petition from 500
residents living around Lee-
Superintendent
of
Parks
Robert Ruhe said that the Park
District now maintains and
supervises ice skating rinks
at Terminal, Central, McNally,
Lorel, Oakton, Greenleaf and
Lamon, and Emily Parks. These
rinks, he says, are within one
mile of any household in town .
Eventuall}' , there should be
an ice skating rink within
three-quarters of a mile (6
blocks) of every home, while
a future plan may call for a
rink within one-half mile ( 4
blocks) of every house, Ruhe
reported.
Henry Weber, vice president
of the Bo!l"d of Park Commissioners said that no additional
money can now be appropriated
for full maintenance of additional parks without an increase
in taxes.

'Indecent' Performance
Causes License Revocation
Based on police testimony
of an indecent performance.
Daniel Ryan, president of the
county board, has revoked
the liquor license of Rocco
Potenzo, owner of the Forest
Lounge, 6548 Milwaukee ave.,
Niles Township.
Six girls were arrested in
the tavern Sept. 6 and fined
it 200 on charges of performing
lewd acts. Deputy Sheriff Allen
Rosen and Former Deputy John
J . Healy testified Dec . 21 in
a hearing conducted by A.L.
Hornick,
Ry an's assistant,
that the girls did a strip tease
that left them nude from the
waist _ p.
u
The policemen had posed
a s customers to gain entrance
to a room in the rear of the
tavern to see the show.
Defense Attorney Michael
Brodkin contended the girls
had a lace cloth draped over
t heir shoulders, and that their
movement s
were
"nothing
different. than anyone could
witness on television or in
any night club.
"Frankly., -I have never seen
the type of dancing described
on television or in night clubs,
said 1-lornick . "In my opinion,
this was not a dance of the
seven fawns or sweet little
strolling about on the green .
It was not eve n a folk dan c e.''
Potenzo and others associated
with the location at various
times had federal wagering
stamps.
Three Skokie Experts

What is frequently considered by the layman as the mark of the master
chef . . . an extra pincli of this, a dash of that, and a bit extra for the pot ...
is now as obsolete as a wood burning stove in the stainless steel kitchen
of Johnstone's Restaurant a t 4747 Peterson Ave., Chicago.
Also, out the window has gone the time honored belief that the restaurant
kitchen is the private domain of the ''master'' chef.
Richard Grassfield, co-owner with
Shelby C. Johnstone, of J ohnstone's
Restaurant dominating the corner of
Cicero and Peterson, says that hi s
restaurant, throug h modern management
techniques, offers g uests the same high
quality
"old-fashioned , home-cooked
meals" for any _ given dish today as
six months from today.
The swishin g of s kirt s repla ces the
traditional fluff y C'hef's hat as a n allfeminine s ta_ff of cooks (not a man in
sight)
prepares scores of different
dishes. Each cook i s fully trained to
carry on in another's job of preparation.

that are a day to a day and one-half
fresh.
Gras sfie Id's statement of "all the
chicken you can eat" he refer s to with
a re cen t am u s in g incid e nt of a hungry
college stude nt who ordered a plate of
fried chicken (which i s one-half a bird),
polished this off with a seco nd , ordered
a third for desert, a nd followed up with
a fourth order.
Following chi s gastronomical exercise, he paid his $1.90 and thanked the
management. Fortunately for the management , th e "bird" who c an finish off two
complete chickens is rare inde ed.
Johnstone's also is noted for its ownbaked pasteries from their shop in Lincoln Village . Dozens of dese·rts are

year is fresh strawberry whipped cream
pie made from berries flown in from
California and delivered directly co
John s ton e's Bakery.
