HEINLY'S GRILL, 125 North Clark Street

The County Building and City Hall reporters usually breakfast in this sandwich shop, across the street from their "beat" headquarters. "Pop" Heinly's waffles and griddle cakes appear to make a big hit with the "boys"; and so do his toasted sandwiches and pastries. Such well-known newspapermen as Willis O'Rourke, of the American; Ray Quisno, of the Examiner; and Willard Edwards, of the Tribune, come here; and the City News Bureau boys make this their hangout.
