Food for Thought When hungry chemists gather for
the ACS Banquet at Atlantic City Sept. 18, they can rest assured that their taste buds are in for a treat. Catering for the affair is in the experienced hands of D . F. McCaUister and Sons of Philadelphia.
McCaUister thinks nothing of catering to 6000 or more people in a single sitting, has served Presidents Truman and Eisenhower when they were guests at Philadelphia affairs. It has handled events ranging from plant openings and ship commissionings to stockholders meetings and political functions, even catered on Hitler's yacht when it was brought to this country to be dismanded.
Although McCaUisters usuaUy confines its activities within a 60-mile radius of Philadelphia, since its founding over 60 years ago—the firm is still under the same family management—it has built up a nationwide reputation and was the subject of a piece in Saturday Evening Post a few years ago. It gets requests from throughout the country for the recipe of its famous snapper soup. Another of its specialties: egg nog sherbet.
For the AGS Banquet in the ballroom of Atlantic City's convention hall, McCaUister expects to have a staff of 40 to 50 chefs, waiters, and other
persons on hand, aU brought from Philadelphia by chartered bus and under the supervision of Roy W . Mur-ray, a son-in-law of the firm's founder.
