ADJUSTMENTS
Riverside Park


Everybody's talking about the new
"subdued syncopation' which Carol
Reed is featuring for the dance music
at Riverside now. Reeds visit to the
coast, where Regards & Mace sent
him to learn the inside" of the new
music from Hank Halstead' whose
band at the Palais Royal introduced
it in the west. returned all enthused
with its possibilities And acting on
the suggestion of Halstead, he is fol-
lowing the same manner of its in
PRODUCTION here that Halstead used
in bringing the music to the coast.
The contrast between "subdued syn
copation" and the old "tin pan jazz"
is SO pronounced that the complete
chage from the latter to the former
leaves the dancer positively nom
plussed, and this does not give the
subtle charm the new music radiates
the chance to make itself felt with
the dancer. So an instrument or
two at a time takes UP the new mu-
sic, while the old style Is pursued by
the remaining orchestra, the result
being that "subdued syncopation"
literally slips up on the dancers"
and completely captivates them be-
fore they are really and truly aware
that the whole scheme of the dance
inspiration has been changed.
Reed is nightly Introducing more
and more of the "subdued syncopa-
ton" and more and more is the
change becoming the sole topic of
conversation with the dancers.
Within a few days now the change
will have been made completely. and
the old style music will be only a
fleeting menory--in its place will
have come "subdued syncopation"
the answer to the coast to coast cry
for something to replace straight
jazz. Dancing will of course be en-
joyed to the utmost at the big ball
room this evening, and as usual re-
freshments will serve as a. big factor
in the enjoyment. This end of the
park is in charge of cliff" who is
specializing on the very finest OBJ
tainable and at uptown prices.
Swimming is ever popular at
Riverside Park, and the big pool is
the host to crowds of bathers every
day. 1t is planned in the immediate
future. probably Sunday. to inaugu-
rate the series Of tournaments and
events which will prove a big item
throughout this season at the pool at
Riverside. The concessions are run
ming full blast. and the new restau-
rant is big hit with the patrons of
the park. Clean and sanitary,
moderate in price, the restaurant
precludes the necessity for return
ing to the city for meals, and makes
possible an entire day and evening
of unrestrained Joy at Arizona's
largest and most popular amusement
center.
