or less than the prices quoted be-
low. The discrepancy will be
caused by taxes, which vary too
much to put them in a chart.

Tuesday marks the relighting Of
that famous Cotton Club. Yes,
the management has decided to
open up for Christmas week, but
the sad part of the whole thing
is that it will go dark again after
New Year Eve. But there is no
doubt that this forthcoming week
will be really something to write
home about.
The newest addition to the Capt.
tails after-dark spots will be the
Cafe Samovar which is slated to
open December q. Definitely
not a night club, this new rendez-
veus will be a smart luncheon
cocktail, dinner and supper spot
with very Continental atmosphere
and entertainment, 1t will be To-
Gated In the Burlington Hotel.
One room superbly decorated by
the famous Nicholi Vasilieff. with
red leathered divanS, muralS, and
colorful indirect lighting, will be
the main restaurant. Adjoining
will be the Caucasian lounge,
luxurious, softly Lit, with the
Royal Persians as entertainers,
featuring Leila Chanum, Nautcn
Dancer.
Little by little the news about
the Mayflower's New Year Eve
celebration is leaking out. Now
comes the information that
Buddy Harmon and his Sidney
orchestra, all through the holiday
week will present an Overture Of
1885," This will be a musical re-
minder of the last Is years, a pot
pourri of the most famous hits
since 1920, ending with a couple
of numbers for which the musi-
clans prophesy success in the new
year.

the past month have been dane

Dick Lam, manager of the Lotus,
has high hopes for the new group.
Since the last press release ar
rived in this office from the Con-
tinental Hotel, Happy Walker has
made several changes in his floor
show, which will be presented in
the new Continental Room New
Year Eve. Now scheduled to ap-
pear are Lucille and Lindon,
South American dance team;
Alvin Eley, lyric tenor; Vera Mil.
Ter, a toe-tapper. and Kitty Sim
ons, blues singer. OF course,
Happy himself will supply the
music with his orchestra.
Charles Opunul, guitarist with
Gordon st. Chad, and his Para
disc Islanders in the Ambassadors
Hi Hat got his start as a vocalist
as a choir boy in Catholic
church back in Honolulu.
Although Marion Wilkins and
Jack Meyers, ballroom dancers,
have been held over for another
week, and rightly so, the main
topic of discussion at the Shore
ham these days is the forthcom-
ing holidays. For Christmas Day
the hotel has prepared a special
menu, to be served throughout
the day. And six days later an
extra large floor show has been
engaged. Remember the dates.
More will come later.
GREAT TEAM
It is true that most spots are
In the midst of planning gala holi-
day celebrations, and Guy and
his Club Habana are no excep-
tions. But before he can delve
too deeply into Christmas he is
no doubt Dragging about his dance
attraction that will open Decem-
Der "a. Am referring to Chester
Towne and Helen Knott. Host
Scott is to be congratulated on
getting such fine team for the
holiday season, and their presence
in Club Habana should add great
ly to the festive air.
