KEELUNG CLUB Keelung ' s Chamber of Commerce has never billed the city as the garden spot oi Taiwan or the Playland of the Pacific even though it is located at about the same latitude as Miami, Florida. In fact, the city will never threaten Milwaukee ' s boast of being the best Navy liberty town, but there have been improvements made. Foremost has been the night spot known as the Keelung Club. The Keelung Club administration was assumed by the ship when we relieved the St. Paul. The Board of Governors appointed consisted of CDR Knight, LCDR Baker, and LCDR Countryman. Club personnel were : J R Trammell, chief commissaryman, manager; E.A. Hillstrom, chief engineman, assistant manager; F.N. Grayson, com- missaryman first class, bar manager ; W. R. Blue, storekeeper second class, cashier ; J.M. Bandy, storekeeper third class, assistant cashier ; and J.R. Schermerhorn, ship ' s .serviceman first class, bookkeeper. Over $1,500 was spent to improve the club and make it a better place to spend liberty hours. A new deck was put in on the first floor, murals of Seventh Fleet flagships were set up, new bars were obtained, a complete food service including a new grill and refrigerator was put in on the second deck, a new bandstand was installed and new fans, chairs, tables and other miscellaneous items purchased to better the place. It was the only place in Keelung where a man could purchase drinks at a reasonable price, have a snack and listen to the Helena Troubadors or the Seventh Fleet Combo.
