viously is her husband (only
don't ask why it's obvious) makes no
bones about the question she is going
to ask Prince Mogul. In fact she
writes it down right at her table and
lets every one about see it: rs my
husband true to me?" Lady comes
out of Prince Mogul's booth, says
nothing, wears her face in the manner
known as an impregnable mask. AS
she is about to leave the lounge an
other character enters the scene. A
second young woman, unable to con-
tain herself longer, dashes up and
asks, rs hep" First lady answers:
oh, I changed my mind. didn't
ask him that?' Husband wears his

Music may have the power to
soothe the savage breast and whatnot,
but sometimes music just doesn't have
any hypnotic effect at all, at all For
instance. the other night at the Rus
sian Troika, that same night all those
60 or SO people from the Chevy Chase
Music Club held their fiesta, Violinist
Durwood Bowersox stood by table,
played Gloomy Sunday" Not only
was not soul driven to the rashness
which won for the tune the title The
Suicide Song but when Mr.. Bower
sox moved to the next table he found
Gloomy Sunday" hadn't created
bit of mood. Gent there wanted to
hear, right &way, "Heigh-Ho."
- And speaking Of "Heigh-H OTIS
cinch to get from one idea to an
other the way this department does
it,. there was great to-do at the Heigh-
Ho Saturday night. For right there
in the midst of the Heigh-Ho Satur-
day night hullaba was a handsome
blond and sunburned lass you've seen
IN many a moving picture, Miss Pa
trlcia Ellis. And great was the to-do
when Miss Ellis discovered her pearl
ring was missing: great her joy when
she discovered the loss was only tenn
porary, another Heigh- Hottie having
found it.
So the subject of movie stars
gets us right to Dorothy Lamour, who
has not been seen in any of the local
bLStros. But Miss Lamour seems to
have meant it when she said she was
giving up that sarong. for the sarong
is going to be given away to some
Washington lass, come Saturday night,
at the Hi-Hat. It's all a plot on the
part of the Loew Theater people to
interest you and you in Her Jungle
Love, which comes to the Capitol
tomorrow. the Lamour sarong to be
given to the gal who guesses the cor
rect ingredients of the jungle Love"
cocktail. new potion devised by the
Hi-Hat's Oscar. And what's more. !
It's promised that Allan Jones will be
on hand to make the presentation of
the Lamour saronS, ceremony which
certainly should be performed with
all dignity.
Now speaking of Allan Jones
brings us around to Mary Ruth Milan,
for Miss Milan the other eve mem
toned having been down to hear Mr..
Jones sing, and there followed a bit
of dialogue which must be preserved
for the record.
O. Did you sigh and swoon when
he sang?
A. Boy! He sings right on pitch!
@. So that's how singers measure
romance, huh?
A. Well. Nelson Eddy's fat a lot of
times.
