numerous occasions for this reason
A case in point is that Guy who

son at the Hotel Roosevelt grill In
New York, always makes it a prac-
tice to open each year on a Thurs
day. This is because his debut at the
grill was made on Thursday, and he
attached sentimental significance
to the date.
Featured with the Royal Cana
dams is the famous Lombardo trio
composed of Carmen Lombardo,
Larry Owens and Fred Higman.
These same men also comprise the
saxophone trio and double on flutes
and clarinets. This combination
