All in all, it probably cost us close to $75.00 per head to stay up on those work nights. Dinners were always held in the club down the hill. The Italian food filled our hungry stomachs, but we all will probably have ulcers when we are thirty five. We express our deepest gratitude to May, our waitress, Joe the cook, and the whole staff of the Van Courtlandt Luncheonette for their perseverance and under- Bill Steponkus, John Waters, Frank Voisenat.
