McGee closed out 47 years in the drug store business in Port Angeles yesterday with the sale of his firm, Fry Drug 515 East First The new owners are Dennis E. Montagne and associates. Montague lias been a pharmacist for McGee for five years. He said he and his associates have expansion plans and will announce them later. McGee has been associated with Fry Drug since he came to Port Angeles in 1921 upon graduation from Washington State tJntverstty.

The store then was owned by the late D. II. Fry of Seattle. It had been started in 191H with fixluresand equipment Fry Drug Store in 1947 Herbert McGee, At Right, With His Son, Craig, Now of Seattle. Cvening News photo moved here from Yaklma.

McGee became manager In 1924 when the late Harrison Turneaure resigned as manager to start his own firm, Union Drug. McGee purchased the business In 1943. Fry Drug was originally located where Willi-Lou's, a women's apparel store, Isnowat 105 W. It moved to the Aldwell Building, on the northeast corner of First and Laurel, In 1918 and remained thereuntil the building was destroyed by fire on Dec. 12, 1965.

"The fire was on a Sunday night," McGee recounted, we were back In business the following Wednesday across the street where a barber shop Is now. We built the present building and moved Into It the following April." McGee's wife, Carol, who has assisted him In the business over the years, pointed out that the store has perhaps the most complete prescription file in Port Angeles, as It acquired those ol four other pioneer drug stores as they were sold. Fry Drug, with Its soda fountain, was social headquarters for teen-agers of an earlier era, McGee recalls. "The mirror on the back.bar In the original store was brought here from Yaklma, but It was made in France and was shipped here around the Horn." McGee said he has one origi-. nal metal-legged Ice cream chair left from the old store.

He keeps it as an antique in his home. What will he do now that he's out of business? "I don't want to retire. I hope to continue my profession by substituting as a pharmacist where- ever I can."
