HUGH RAY,; of this city, is now on exhibit at the Clinton library. The pitchers, of all, sizes and colors and in a wide variety of materials, have been acquired by Mrs. Ray from various places. Many are souvenirs, some are gifts and oth-; ers were purchased by Mrs. Ray her self during recent years. When President Roosevelt’s party stopped at Port Lyautey on January 21 during a review of troops and battle sites in French Morocco, the army officer who explained the oper ation which had taken place there was able to speak from first-hand knowledge. He was COL. FREDER ICK DeROHAN, of Washington, who! used a chart to demonstrate the man-1 ner in which assault forces under his command had captured Fort Kasba at Mehdia, near the port, and scene of some of the hardest fighting in the North African campaign. Col. De- Rohan was one of the first army of ficers at Presbyterian college after military training was begun and he and Mrs. DeRohan made their home here while he was head of the mili tary department in 1920. For his leadership in the battle, Colonel DeRohan was awarded the silver star, according to a war de partment announcepient of Decem ber 28. News of his role in connection with the President’s visit came as a com plete surprise to his small, attractive wife who, apparently fearing the worst, was a bit upset when a pho tographer and a reporter knocked on her apartment door at the Wardman Park hotel, Washington, January 26. A native of New York city, where he was educated Colonel DeRohan has maintained his residence in Washington since early in 1941, when he was assigned to the war depart ment for his first Jour of duty in Washington. While here, he and Mrs. DeRohan made their home with Mrs. W. B. Owens, Sr. TYPEWRITER RIBBONS for all ma chines, portable and standard. Car- aon paper, rubber stamps. Call 74 CHRONICLE PUBLISHING CO.

CALDWELL OPA RULING ]' Says: Driving to Restaurants to Eat Set the urge . TO HELP PURGE '/ OPA INTERPRETATION Driving to a nearby restaurant to eat, was listed as one of the permissible types. OPA also made it plain that an Eastern driver can make a non-essential stop of any kind if it is on the route of an essen tial trip. For instance, a person driving home from work could stop for a drink or a social visit so long as the stop takes no extra gasoline. DRIVING TO RESTAURANTS OPA issued a two-paragraph statement on driving to restaurants and places of entertainment and also issued a series of questions and answers explaining the application of t)ie ruling to specific instances. The interpretation said: “If no alternative means of transportation are available, driving to a restaurant for the purpose of eating a meal, if eating at a restaurant is necessary, is ‘essential shopping’ (essential shopping is one of the purposes for which Easterners may use their cars) if the restaurant is within reasonable distance from driver’s home, or place of Work, or reasonable distance from direct route between home and work: THIS CLARIFYING ADVERTISEMENT IS PURUSHED FOR TrfE BENEFIT OF CUSTOMERS OF THE CLINTON HOTEL COFFEE SHOP, THE CLINTON TEA ROOM AND CLINTON CAFE. In this emergency a united public foregoes pleasure driv ing gladly and cheerfully. We endorse the ban on dining out as a social function, but call your attention to the current rul ing of OPA that in the matter of necessary eating, automo biles may be used for transportation to hotels, cafes and tea. rooms when other adequate means of transportation is not available.
