Every Day Is
Party Day
BY FRANCOIS

Tripping the light fantastic, an
esthetic art practiced by young
and old with sometimes uneSthetic
qualities, is primarily a summer
pastime. OF course, to say that
dancing should not be condoned
in cooler seasons would be border
ing narrow mindednesS, but this
week, let's take the rounds of
Washington night spots with the
waltz, the foxtrot, and the carioca
in mind.

however, perhaps it would be fit
ting to stop in for bit of "jelly"
at the Hamilton Hotel for a COM
forting Sojourn with Master Tom
Collins, the refreshing gent who
makes his appearance in cracking
top glasses at the Rainbow bar.
The Rainbow Room is becoming
an ever more popular roosting
place for fancy get-togetherers, so
we urge it as an extra special en-
tree to a glorious nights enter
tainment. Manager Dick Butler
also has q new velocity micro
phone and simplifying system in
the Rainbow Room which he is
proudly relaying to his patrons.
Dick, by the way, recently made q
flying survey of the New York
night clubs, including the Stork
Club, the Rainbow Room, the
swanky Versailles, and other
Broadway hangouts. purely in the
interests Of business.

ACKNOWLEDGING

ACKNOWLEDGING is not news to us. We
have been interested in it since its incep.
ton. Today the Hamilton Hotel is com.
pletely Air. Conditioned from cellar to
roof'top. 1t is another development in the
steady progress of the Hamilton toward
the attainment of better living.
1t is a fact that the majority of the
people have come to think of air.condition.
ing as means of cooling the rooms they
occupy .. a method of relief from the
intense heat of summer. But our air-con.
ditioning is considerably more than that.
It actually includes, in addition to cooling,
five other important processes in the
preparation of more comfortable air to
live in.
These processes are circulating, wash.
ing, humidifying, dehumidifying and heat.
ing. Although cooling secures the great.
est publicity for conditioning, it is by
no means its only function.
We feel that we are abreast of the times
with our fine type of air.conditioning
equipment. We feel that our coffee shop
-. our dining room L. . our Rainbow
Room our guest rooms -. every inch
of space in our eleven floors of modern
hostelry will meet with your demands for
GOODNESS and comfort.
So we say to you, Washington ..

Tough Row for Ritzenberg.

WHILE officials took cognizance OF
wv the merits of David johnson,
Billy Turner, Ralph Adair, Harold
Landsman and Dewitt Smith by plac-
ing them in selected positions, some
thought it strange that one or more
Of that quintet were not seeded
As the draw turned out, it will be
I'D to Ritzenberg to play Landsman
Smith, Charming and johnson on his
way to the finals. The lower bracket
headed by March, contains Turner
Hatch and Adair.- Should dops- run
true to form, Ritzenberg and March
would meet in the finals.
Billy Zeller and Leonard Sokol, semi
finalistS in the boys tourr ament last
year, were seeded Nos. and 2, re-
spectively. zeller was Is in January,
while Sokol has another year as boy
player. One of the youngest boys en-
tered is Maurice Cowan, who was only
i3 in January.
Beginning tomorrow, all matches in
the current competition will start at
noon, in order to permit play nearly
four hours every day. No matches
ever will be started after 4 o'clock.
Soon after the entrance sheet for
doubles was posted yesterday, three
teams had enlisted for play. Many
were expected to sign up today, with
the list closing tonight and the draw
