Grand slam in Clubs

1 Jan 1945

375 Thirteen clubs — the kind of hand you dream of and never expect to pick up! But there's nothing visionary about the thirteen clubs which Naafi has 'dealt' the troops — centres at which the serving man and woman may enjoy all the facilities of a first-class social club. Yet the cost of a meal is the same as in any Naafi canteen. All other club amenities (apart from the barber service) are free. The entire cost of establishing the clubs is borne by Naafi. But this extension of its service has created a new staff problem and Naafi requires men with hotel and catering experience as Club Managers at home or overseas.
