La Paree

Warm weather usually means a
bit of a letdown in the after-dark
spots as far as the entertainment
angle is concerned. But this is
anything but true at La Paree, the
popular dine-dancery located at
Fourteenth and H Streets.
The present floor show is one
of the fastest ever to apepar at
this spot. Headed by the very
clever dance team, Cooper and
Madras, who are comedy and aero
batic experts, the show includes
the Costello Sisters, rhythm dane
ers; Amelia Gilmore (now in fourth
week., ballet dancer, and Herbert
Loe in a novelty number which
makes the guests Shudder as he
eats cigarettes and flowers and
then goes into a dance to speed up
the digestion of his meal.
The music at La Paree is sup
piled by that ever popular Emory
Daugherty and his orchestra with
the vocal selections by Ray Beck,
the popular singer.

PoWhatan

Last night. those famous orange
lights which festoon the Powha-
tan roof were turned on marking
the beginning Of their summer
season. It was a crowd that
taxed the capacity of the spacious
roof which turned out to greet
Pete Macias and his orchestra.
The roof has been newly re-
decorated this year. 1t has a new
dance floor, the walters have new
uniforms. In fact. everything's
new but that invaluable atmos-
phere which has given the Pow
hatan its deservedly high repu-
tation.
Pete Macias and his musicians,
all dressed up in blue gabardine,
played-well. Marty Rubin's own
inimitable songs. the many little
tricks and specialties which has
made the band so outstanding
were all present.

over WATR this evening when
Jerry Donovan, public relations
counsel for the Settlers Village of

on the air. This program will fol-
low the trans-radio news flashes at
s o'clock.
The speaker promises to point
out some of the principal Puritan
ical regulations which sent many
to the stocks and racks in the old
days. Anyone DESTROYS of knowing
IL the strict religionists Of the coll
ony believed in capital punishment,
can have their curiosity appeased
by listening in this evening, for
the well known newspaperman is
prepared to describe numerous acts
of the evil-doers which resulted in
the imposition of the death penalty.
Mr.. Donovan's radio address on
1.-THE History Of Waterbury," some
three weeks ago, was well received
by WATR listeners and they are as
sured of another treat this evening.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-06-12

Tonight at 7:45, Station WATR
takes another step forward on the
road of public service In presenting
a new feature to be known as the
Voice of Comfort and Gospel Rev
cries. This new program is to be
made up of music of the semi-re
ligious type and poems. 1t is ex-
pected that a program of this ma
ture will bring a great deal of
pleasure to every radio listener,
particularly those who are shut in.
and who are in mental distress.
The Voice of Comfort ID one of
'Waterbury's leading clergy men
who insists that his identity be left
unannounced. During the course of
the program, an appeal will be
made to the radio audience to help
those who are unfortunate. The
feature will be sort of shut-ins
exchange. The Voice of Comfort
will ask the radio listener to COM
municate with him If there Is any
way that he can help those not so
fortunate as he. Any clothes, books.
wheel chairs, crutches, anything
which will lessen the burden of
those on whom, fate has n0 smiled
so kindly WILDE accepted by the
shut in exchange and turned over
to the needy.
Salvation Army
In order that this feature of the
program might be CARED out to
best advantage, The Voice of Com
fort has enlisted the services of the
Salvation Army to distribute the
gifts from the radio listeners. The
program is intended primarily to
bring entertainment to the sick,
and the shut in, but it is expected
that because of the helping hand
feature 1t will be one Of the most
popular radio programs to come
from any Waterbury station.
The musical portion of the Voice
of Comfort and Gospel reveries will
be provided by a mixed qquartette
who also wish their identity to re-
main unknown. These vocalists and
the clergyman who has arranged
and is conducting the new program
are lending their talents to pro-
gram of service.
For Charity
It is expected that, the radio
audience will take to this new
WATR feature whole heartedly be-
cause it is being presented nj the
interests of charity. Charity in a
spiritual sense as well as the ma
terial.
The poems and music will bring
solace and comfort to the shut-ins,
and the contribution from tho
radio audience will do much to
