claims he's found the ideal living plan.
/ Phil is a practicing lawyer as well as
a musician, but he makes swing music
a business and saves the briefs, torts
and musty tones as hobby to be in
dulged in during his spare time. His
| idea of something real. something
earnest, is arranging group OF novel
numbers for a radio program, and
for fun and recreation he'll take a
good, heavy law case.
Any number of lawyers would like
to follow the same plan, Phil insists.
But such an idiosyncraSy probably
should be expected OF an 1rishman
making American swing music in a
Spanish ball room.
But, of course, Phil isn't the only
attraction at Glen Echo. There are
so diversions. including the Crystal
Pool and all the other amusement
park devices, in full swing every day
and night at the 40 acres of fun
River trips continue to provide di-
version and escape from the heat for
throngs of Washingtonians. The S. S.
Potomac of the Potomac River Lines,
has started the popular Wednesday
trips to Chapel Point and return. The
boat leaves at am. on the 120-mfe
scenic river trip and return to Wash
i1gton at 7:30 pm. There will be
only two more Sunday jaunts to
Chapel Point this Summer, one today
and the last next Sunday.
Bernie Jarboe and his Night Hawks
play aboard the S. S. Potomac every
night on the moonlight" and the
dance floor will accommodate 300
couples.
The Wilson Line, too, reports
smooth sailing, with record-breaking
crowds aboard the City of Washing
ton on all of her various jaunts on
the Potomac last week. The steamer
makes four trips daily. to Mount Yer
non and Marshall Hall Park at 10
am. and pm, the sunset cruise at
$50 and the moonlight CURSE at $50
pm. Stephen LeSieur and his Commo-
dores are on board to supply dance
music on both the sunset and the
moonlight cruises:
Marshall Hall Park, with its build
ings modernized and its grounds beau
tilted this season, also reports better
business than ever before. The his
toric old Potomac River playground
is popular place.
Washingtonians who like a sniff of
salt in the air they breathe will well
come the announcement by the w. M.
& A. Motor Lines of new two-day fam
lily excursions to Seaside Park at
Chesapeake Beach, Md. The trips will
be made every Tuesday and Wednes-
day at reduced costs.
Seaside offers plenty of saltwater
swimming, in the pool or the bay;
dancing on the pavilion overlooking
the water, fishing from the h-mile
pier and a host of amusement park
devices. There's a shady picnic grove,
too, with accommodations for 5000
persons.
