Up Ia New York where the temper
allure b plying TAG With zero and the
now and slush are making the biz
city the last place one wants to be,
Mrs. Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt b |
asking herself Why the fatee In zen
eral and Daytona In particular should
be 50 unkind to her, and Why? She
will have to abandon her trip to Day
tOna because there are no acc0mmoda-
tio0s to be found for her.
Several days ago her agent COM
menced plans for her trip south this
winter and Daytona was the place Mrs.
Vanderbilt chose as the most attract
I've OF the resorts, accommodations
In the way OF a large furnished house
were written for for February but
there were none to be found. Appli.
cation was made at the Hotel Claren-
don but a suitable suite was not avail
able. The Clarendonss bookings for
February have been full for a good
rooms could not be made there, nor
could any of the many attractive cot
tageS at Daytona Beach and Seabreeze
be found without occupants. And so,
1t seems, Mrs. Vanderbilt and the
group of guests who were to accom-
pany her must remain in the north or
be content with some other resort in
Florida not so popular as Daytona.
While many Of the hotels are not filled
| with guests at this time, the majority
are booked straight through for Feb
ruary and the prospects are that the
winter here this season will be the
biggest Daytona, Dayt0na Beach and
Seabreeze have ever had.
