Hangar Club

BY now the Hangar Roof has
tried every type of vaudeville act,
from trained seals to Swiss bell
ringers, but those Levy Brothers
(Bill and Bernie) never seem to
exhaust their supply of weird,
novelty acts. This time it is a
fire eater, who, according to the
best circus traditions, eats fire
in large flaming gobS, blows it
out for patrons to light their
cigarets on, and generally make
the Hangar show a sensation.
His name is Daredevil WEIGH,
and he also is an escape artist,
escaping nightly from straight
jackets, handouts, chains, in fact
any type of imprisoning bonds
that Hangar patrons can pro-
duee. Also he makes a standing
offer of a large reward for any
body who can furnish him with
a set of handouts from which
he can not free himself in 10
minutes. That goes, he add, for
policemen, Omen and lock ex-
pertS.
Then, of course, there is the
full Hangar show, in addition to
WEIGH, with eight acts and AL
Howard and his broadcasting Oh
chestra. The shows are at 1880
and 1880 nightly, with dancing
continuously from 9 to 2:30.

Lotus

The are big doings over at the
Lotus Restaurant. This week
they have an honest to goodness
fan dancer who was formerly with
Earl CAROLS Vanities and more
recently with the Show Boat in
Chicago. This young lady's name
is Dorothy Ray, and in the event
anyone is interested, she has q
very pretty face. Miss Ray is very
appropriately attired for this kind
of weather and seems to be the
coolest person in the whole show.
OF course the large modern cool
ing system at the Lotus keeps the
temperature comfortable at all
times.
This weeks lineup consists Of
the novelty tap dance team Of
lyle and Phillips who skip rope
and tap in perfect unison. The
sister team Of Corinne and Mae
belle is another outstanding at
traction and, of course, Judy FL
lington has not lost any of her
popularity. Bill Strickland and
his Capitolians are playing all the
latest dance numbers and are get
ting their share OF the applause.

Cotton Club

These days at the Cotton Club.
Washington's premier Harlem spot,
are neither too hot nor too cold.
For as the cooling breezes sweep
into the club from the large French
windows, giving temperature that
you find in early fall. Tommy
Myles and his orchestra will neu'
tralize it with their hot rhythmS.
Or if Tommy is not playing,
the principals of the large floor
show will take his place as far as
warmth is concerned. Avon Long,
Anise and Alland, the Three
Brown Jacks, Billy EckStein,
Gypsy West and a host of sepia
beauties entertain twice nightly
at 1880 p. m, and 2 a. m. The
first three names mentioned are
considered by the management Of
the Cotton Club to be the best
acts ever to appear at this spot.
And do not forget that the club
is serving dinner nightly with the
doors opening at 6 p. m.

The new addition to River Bend,

popular spot these hot afternoons
and evenings.
The past week another tribe of
Indians we're brought into the In

Still charging, the sponsors of
this village provide the public with
q still more extensive and inter

Mayflower

A diplomat, just recently re-
turned from Stockholm, was a
guest in the Mayflower's lounge
the other day. He was overheard
to compare the temperature and
cool atmosphere to the Swedish
capital. The lounge, he said, was
cooler and more refreshing. And
to those who know their Stock
holm, that's quite a tribute to the
Mayflower's air-cooling system.
Another diversion was provided
there the other day, when gen.
tleman, about to pay his check,
discovered that he had only a
one dollar bill and-a thousand
dollar bill! Gentlemen who own
thousand dollar bills are of q
species apart, thought lounge
guests, as they saw some nine
hundred dollars change counted
out.
