Coplay column

Hoagies are like gold to the American Club of Coplay. Selling its one millionth hoagie several years back, the club's volunteers are now on the way to reaching 1,800,000.

The group of volunteers assembles its popular meat and tuna hoagies at a building erected just for that purpose. Each volunteer has a station next to a moving conveyor belt for adding the cheese, high-grade meats, lettuce, tomatoes and hot peppers and the secret tuna mix recipe to the cut rolls.

The small American flags which mark the graves of veterans at the Coplay Cemetery and St. Peter's Cemetery can be disposed of if they are tattered or faded.

Coplay American Legion Post 454 has a painted former mailbox in front of its home on South Second Street where the flags can be discarded. The flags are burned in a ceremony in June at the Hokendauqua American Legion on Flag Day.
