Helpful Household Hints
Neatness Aid

Neatness Aid
The lids of boxes are excel.
lent for piles of clothing in
bureau drawers. They keep them
looking much nicer and, when
cleaning, it is simple matter
to lift out the whole box at
once.
Waffle Iron Care
When finished with waffle
iron, leave it open to dry and
cool, to avoid badly discolored
gridS and also a musty odor
that is occasioned by keeping
the griddles closed before cooled
after using.

Heat In Fat

Heat In Fat
A timbale iron should be
heated in the fat, so that by
the time the fat is the correct
temperature, the iron will also
be heated. Wipe off the iron
on a paper towel before dipping
the iron in the batter, to pre-
vent surplus fat from making
holes in the timbale case.
Saves Labor
Use a clean sheet Of wrap
ping paper to roll pies and
pastry on. Saves a lot Of clean
ing up later.

Woodruff and Struther's dane

Gated. Their routines possess
originality. In short, they are
eminently suited to the swank Of
Heigh-Ho. This week, among their
featured routineS is lovely waltz,
musical comedy number and a
moderniStic routine.
They will, because OF their I'M
mense popularity with Heigh-Ho
guests, remain another week at
the Connecticut Avenue spot. An
entirely different program of new
and novel dances will be pre-
sented.
With them are, as always, the
clubs regular features, including
the ever-groWing more popular
stringed trio, which the patrons
seem to enjoy for dancing almost
as much as the orchestra. The
songs of Marty Rubin and Jimmy
Nichols, the piano duets and
trios are all part of the continu-
GUS entertainment,

Another bang-up review burst
into La Paree restaurant yesterday
afternoon. This time it is the
Helen Polka Girls straight from
Broadway.
The show is headed by the very
versatile team of Ruth and Mac
Gardiner, who do something diff
ferent. Ruth plays an accordion
and Mac dances in splendid tap
fashion. The lady end of this
team is the only woman who tap
dances while playing an accordion.
'Tis quite an innovation.
The girls of the ensemble, Alice
Green, Darlene Lyons, Helen
Starr, Harriet Clifton, Dorothy
Petersen and Ronnie Rowan, do
three numbers. They are a fan
dance, rhythm tap and tap and
mooche. The speciality acts which
are very good are taken care of

SUPPER CLUB JOTTINGS
Fan Dancer At
Cotton Club

Entertainment that cannot be
beat anywhere, food that is ex-
cellent and an atmosphere entirely
different are the outstanding fac
tors that are drawing so many
people to the Cotton Club this
week.
Amy Spencer, who was sensa-
tion from the moment she made
her first appearance at this Har.
lem spot, continues to be one Of
the main drawing cards. Her fan
dance is creating a furore the
likes of which are seldom seen in
this town. Another great hit is
Bob Wallace, popular master OF
ceremonies, whose personality
and singing ability is the talk Of
the club. He absolutely stops al,
most every show.
Sally Gooding, who recently was
i'll, has returned to her task of
initiating Ethel Waters, whose
place she took in the last Cotton
Club Revue in New York. The
patrons cannot seem to get enough
of her either.
And Of course there are the old
standbys, Rastus Murray and Sid
Sisko, who each have their par
ticular style of entertaining. And
last, but not least, Tommy MyleS.
without the latter no Cotton Club
floor show would be successful, as
his music seems to help the gals
swing it.

Casa Rita Has
Gay Throngs

"Just around the corner" from
the leading theaters and handy
to the downtown hotels. Child's
Casa Rita is rapidly becoming a
popular rendezvous with visiting
celebrities and the smarter local
sets.
In the late afternoon discrim-
mating groups find delight in
those unique cocktails, blended in
a manner which reflects the skill
of that master-mixer, Josef.
Nightly, at the dinner hour,
throngs enjoy the ever-popular
cuisine now served in the ar
tistically decorated Spanish room.
Jimmie Santmeyer's N.BC. artists
offer dinner dance program at
this time.
Later, for the supper program,
Santmeyer is joined by Toney,
versatile accordian troubadour,
who adds to the romantic atmos-
phere with scintillating melodies
of the fiesta, interspersed with
those songs you love to sing.
Not a small part of the new
clubs popularity is contributed by
vivacious, blonde Libby Rowland,
who halls from way down South.

NEIGHBORHOOD PROGRAMS
Is
Booking For
New Year

Teddy, major domo of the May.
Hover lounge, today makes the
rather surprising announcement
that he is already taking reserva-
lions for the New Year Eve
celebration at that hotel. And
what's more he has many tables
booked at this early date.
Following the "shop early" ad-
lmonitionS Of the Christmas signs,
he advises that those who don't
want to be on the outside looking
in on December 81, had best give
him their names almost at once.
One Of the reasons is that the
party will be held solely in the
lounge itself. No overflow crowds
In the lobby. No utilization Of
another room. Manager r. l..
Polio of the Mayflower, wishes
the affair to be a select intimate
gathering, entirely different from
t: 9 usual night-spot whoopee.
There have been many surprises
planned for the event, but as yet
they have not been disclosed.
However, Teddy insists it will be
just like a party in your own
home, if you have a couple Of
hundred people in your home.
One thing is certain-Sidney's
musicians are preparing to play
longer, much longer, than usual
on New Years Eve. Sidney, him
self. is planning several innova-
tions for that night.
Till that occasion, however,
there are the usual and popular
features, that prove an always
''standing-room-only" attraction to
lounge patrons. Sid Cowep
and Buddy Harmon's songs, the
delicious food and drink offerings
and the informality of the place
itself all contribute.

New Plans For
Jockey Club

Now that the Jockey Club has
changed hands, things are going
to whistle around Fifth Street and
Florida Avenue, says Tom Frank
lin, the new owner. Drastic reno
vations are taking place which
will greatly enlarge the spot, al
though the general atmosphere
will remain racy.
The gala new opening is sched-
uled for tonight. with Jack War
rem and his orchestra, who came
direct from the Scenley casino
in Pittsburgh. Included in the
new floor show which will be pre-
sented twice nightly are Cookie
Kugel," who sings in real blues
style; Judy Wild, who does several
surprise numbers, and Betty Lee,
q torch singer of no mean ability.
Mr.. Franklin plans to change
The floor shows at least every two
weeks and more often if his pa
irons demand it. The same chef

what that means.

Sings
At Hi-Hat

With Tommy Suffers as an
added attraction for weekends,
the Ambassador Hotels Hi-Hat
cocktail lounge is anticipating an
other overflow crowd tonight.
Manager Frank McNey plans to
utilize the large main dining room
for his guests in addition to the
beautiful silver and trimmed
beverage rendezvous.
Suffers, who was featured for
many months at another down
town night spot, has been regal
ing Hi-Hat patrons lately with his
own inimitable tenor songs and
guitar playing. ommy strolls
from table to table (rather he al
most has to run when the re-
quests start pouring in) singing
anybody'S favorite number.
In the lounge proper Manuel
Bolfils and his Filipinos-four
singers and instrumentalists-en-
tertain in the informal manner
also. This lively troupe combines
charm and versatility to a degree
that has won host of friends
who always come back for more.
Request numbers are their special
ties, too, the repertoire being vir-
tually unlimited,
The genial ministrations of
Manager McNey, a veteran of 20
years experience in hotel and
night club life, add much to the
hospitable atmosphere with which
the Hi-Hat has come to be one of
Washington's most popular gay
places.

Log Cabin Inn Has
Trio SUNDAY NIGHT

The Log Cabin Inn goes in for
atmosphere. Everything's more or
less rustic. The orchestra under
the direction of Pat Olmstead and
featuring Duke Gainor, is arrayed
in orange hick shirts and blue
overalls. The huge fireplace,
rustic bar and cozy loft all follow
out an original and pleasing
"early American" motif.
And an unusual feature of the
Log Cabin Inn is the Sunday
twilight concert which specializes
in old American melodies.

L'Hiver Show

Club l'Hiver, the new addition
to Maryland Club Gardens, which
is all under the personal direction
of Mrs. Stamm, brings continental
atmosphere to this part of the
country.

shows nightly at 9:30 and 1870
p. m. This weeks show is headed
by Brian Mcdonald, Irish tenor,
featured with both Earl CAROLS

right by the songs of his native
isle, but takes charge of the floor
show, with an iron hand.
Macdonald is assisted by Janis
