smithereen smash as Max Baer.
His name seems merely a hoot
from sports editors. One of the
chit chat scribblers recently asked
the head-Waiter of jazz temple
where Baers patronage once packed
human curiosa to the doors, how
the ex-champion would be received
should he visit the place today.
Said he: I'VE would rather he would
stay away but if he should come in
we'd first try to convince him all
the tables were taken and if he in
sisted park him behind a palm near
the drums. New York!
Over in Paris it seems another

coast He found things bit thorny
for awhile after his ring career end
ed. And his French investments
soured. But an admiring English
man backed him in a chic bar off
Champs Elysees-one of those odd
caverns that SO often become a fur
ore with celebrity trade. A popu-
larity brought about by lucky
break. King Edward. then Wales,
on an incognito visit wanted to get
away from the crowds one night
and dropped in there by chance
with friends. The news got around.

Two of the most unusual callings
in New York are those of umbrella
sellers and hawkers of extras. The
umbrella sellers pop out literally like
mushrooms after a shower. Where
they come from, where they keep
their supplies, nobody knows. In a
sudden rain at home-going time,
they clean up. The leather lunged
newsies hank out at a lunch room
near Brooklyn Bridge. Here they
await the call from circulation
chiefs. There used to be scads of
them, but the perfection of the de-
livery system has whitfield them to
about a dozen.

and palms and cacti, hanging
baskets, baskets of flowers, and
several dinner tables in charming
