Liquor Dealers Aid Port Salvation Army Ball
Capt Kenneth Gallant of Middletown states the Salvation Army remains abstinent from liquor though the Port Jervis Liquor Dealers Association hosts a charity ball to benefit the army. The event, not sponsored by the army, aims to raise funds as Port Jervis faces limited operations and a June plan for a full-time officer. Joseph P. Dunn, ball chairman, notes a $500 pledge and anticipates about 400 attendees at Karsten's Inn for a tribute to Frank Degnan of the Orange County Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission.
