Want a cold drink? Maybe a
quick bite to eat? How about the
latest on anything and everything
that's happening around town?
If you don't know where to go
for this, you obviously haven't
discovered Jeffs Campus Confec
tionery or Sutton's Drug Store.
If you're just looking to quench
your thirst, Jeffs Campus Confec
tionery is a good bet. It's a stride
east of the Varsity Theater on East
Franklin Street. But be careful
two strides and you're past it.
Despite its small size and lack
of seating space, Jeffs offers a cozy,
friendly atmosphere and plenty of
satisfying drinks. The sodas come
in four sizes, ranging from 50 cents
to 85 cents. Cherry Coke, is the
major attraction.
Milkshakes alse come highly
recommended. Or Jeffs selection
of beer might be more to your taste.
You can munch on some of the
packaged junk food that abounds,
breeze through jne of the many
magazines offered for sale or just
take in the impressive array of
gossip that floats around not
that you'd be listening, of course.
If you did listen in, though, you
might catch some of the same types
of stories that have been told on
Jeff's, Sutton's

the premises since 1927, when the
original Jeff, uncle of the present
owner, sold his first Coke. One
Chapel Hill resident, Britt Sanders,
characterizes Jeff s as a "part of the
history of the town."
It hasn't changed much since its
inception. A fire in 1967 required
major rebuilding, but, even so,
much of the original paneling on
the counters remains.
To say Jeffs serves as a link
between past and present in Chapel
Hill isn't stretching the imagina
tion. To be convinced, you only
need to see the blend of long-time
Chapel Hill residents and the ever
changing cast of UNC students that
form the bulk of the customers.
If you want more than junk food
to go with your drinks or you want

the last word on the goings on of
the town or campus, go to Sutton's
Drug Store at 159 E. Franklin St.
One veteran observer of the local
scene confided that Sutton's is the
mecca of Chapel Hill gossip. And
Sutton's offers a fairly wide selec
tion of moderately priced food.
Breakfast foods range from
$1.50 for an. egg to $2.55 for eggs
and a side dish.
Hamburgers, hot dogs and sand
wiches run from 90 cents to $2.25.
Drinks cost between 48 cents and
67 cents. Ice cream costs 60 cents
per scoop.
And you needn't fear run-of-the-mill
food from a learn-as-she-goes
cook. Sutton's Willie May Houk
is in her 30th year as a short-order
cook.
Comments such as "delightful,"
"efficient," "patient," "chatty" and
"never forgets a face" often arise
in discussions about Houk (or Dr.
Houk, to use her proper title, an
honor granted her by the "Franklin
Street Irregulars" in 1975).
Houk alone may render a visit
to Sutton's worthwhile, but there
are many other reasons to visit this
senior resident (class of 1923). The
atmosphere is friendly and inti
mate. The counter is a convenient
meeting place for townspeople and
students, before or after work or
class. It opens at 6:30 every morn
ing (9 a.m. Sundays) and closes at
6 every evening (4 p.m. Sundays).
If that's not late enough for you,
Jeffs is open from 9 a.m. until 8
p.m. weekdays and until 5 p.m.
weekends.
