The Henry Grille in River­
side, California is one of the
busiest refreshment spots on the
West Coast— a gathering place
for a great many Army and
Navy men.
Recently this location in­
stalled a new Victory Model
Wurlitzer 750. Says Henry
Meyers, the proprietor, “Am
very well pleased with the new
Wurlitzer 750. Since it has been
installed, I have done consider­
able more business.”
As a matter of fact, as pic­
tured above, this instrument
struck a responsive note with
the boys in olive drab who fre­
quent Henry’s Grille and, as Mr.
Meyers laughingly admits, “A
civilian hasn’t got a chance to
get a nickel in it. The Army and
Navy monopolize it all the time.
It helps keep the boys in good
spirits, and is as popular as a
furlough in these parts.”
