This offering is made solely to persons who reside in the State of New York. When you drive out to Montauk, it is a very good idea to remember the word “ketchup,” Be cause “ketchup” will make you think of Heinz Ket chup, and Heinz will make you think of the number fifty seven, and fifty seven happens to be the number of the exit you take in getting off both the Long Is land Expressway and the Sunrise Highway extension when driving out here. So fifty seven is a very good number to remember. But I am getting ahead of my story. From New York, and from the beginning, it is as follows: Drive out the Long Island Expressway to exit 57. Big red signs will lead you off the Expressway on the right and you will come to a traffic light. DO NOT TURN AT THIS TRAFFIC LIGHT. Some people in their exhuberance at seeing a traffic light afber 50 miles of Expressway, have turned left or right here and have never been heard from again. Don’t make this mistake. Go through this traffic light to a SECOND raffic light and make a right turn. The sign at this corner pointing to the right says PATCHOGUE VETERANS MEMORIAL HIGHWAY and once you make the right you will be on the Veteran’s Highway as advertised This Veteran’s Highway goes about I2H miles of very nice divided highway indeed until it meets with Route 27. You’ll find the spot marked by a sign reading MONTAUK POINT 75 MILES NEW YORK 60 MILES and so you’ll turn left and drive off into the glowing sun rise. Or you’ll drive off leaving the glowing sunset be hind you. (This is the Sunrise Highway.) You’ll go a- bout 17 miles and then the big red signs will start warn ing you again that the road is coming to an end. Turn off on the right at Exit 57 marked RIVERHEAD) EAST MORICHES and drive the short distance to the taffric light. Turn left. (The sign is marked RIVER HEAD) and drive through the beautiful farmland and potato fields of Long Island 7.4 miles to the circle at Riverhead. You have to circle right here, but go only a quarter the way around the circle to the turnoff marked HAMPTON BAYS, MONTAUK! This road is Route 24 and it isn’t the best driving road considering what you've been having earlier, but after only 7miles of this road, you’ll come to a marvelous new super highway on your left. This superhighway is Route 27 and the turnoff for it is marked by a great hodge podge of signs which is very confusing. About the easiest way to remember this turnoff is to look for a great hodge podge of signs that is very confusing all lo cated under a blinker light. Find this trunoffand make the left. The superhighway only goes another 5.6 miles and comes to an end facing a Buick-Cadillac dealer. You can only turn left or right here. Turn left, which is the continuation of Route 27 and follow this road all the way to Montauk. But suppose you are already in Montauk, and you just want to go home. What then? To leave Montauk, head west on Route 27 for 27 miles. During this stretch you will go through about five villages, two of which are Amagansett and Water Mill are wide and straight and. conducive to speeding. There have been too many auto-pedestrian accidents in these villages so be especially careful in Amagan sett and Water Mill. After Water Mill, you will reach your 27th mile from Montauk. You will see a big Sunoco Station on your right. Turn right just past. the Sunoco station, where the sign says Route 27. Go four miles. Here the road forks in two and you see a green sign saying NEW YORK 27 WEST and pointing to the left fork, so pay attention. This left fork be comes a four lane superhighway that goes about 4 miles and ends in a series of red warning signs and again there’s a fork in the road. This time you take the right fork, the one with the sign marked 24 NORTH RIVERHEAD (Do not take the fork marked 27 WEST NEW YORK Although it sounds tempting, 27 WEST NEW YORK takes you through Quogue, East Quogue, Speonk. East- port and several other unwanted metropolises.) TAK ING 24 NORTH RIVERHEAD, you will be on Route 24. And exactly 5 miles from the 24 NORTH RIVER HEAD sign you will pass a big white duck that stands about thirty feet high on the right hand side of the road. Keep going. After another three miles, you wiU.l reach the circle at Riverhead. Go around the circle to the right three turnoffs, and take that third turnoff be tween the Shell Station and the Howard Johnson’s: This is marked with a sign reading PATCHOGUE MOR- (cdntinued on page 18, column 2) |ADULTS ONLY A N D Y W ARH O L 'S OH!
