N THE midst of a nightloving peo-
pie, sobered though not personally
d endangered by war in Europe, an
American Ciro's opened in September
in New York. 1t is successor of the
London Ciro's, that ultrafashlonable
restaurant, made famous by the pat
ronage of the Duke and Duchess of
Kent, the Duke and Duchess of
Marlborough, the Anthony Edens,
Lord and Lady Louis Mountbatten,
and host of other leaders of English
society, as well as top-ranklng mem
bers of the literary, theatrical and
motlon-plcture worlds.
When Morris Green, the successful
proprietor of the London eating place,
came over here last winter to visit, he
conceived the idea of an American
Ciro's. So last month the socially elite
of London, if they dined out at all,
Crawled to some other rendezvous,
through the blackouts just family
prlcked here and there by the eerie
blue headlights on cars But over here,
the socially elite sped under New
York bright lights to the doors of the
new Ciro's.
One of the most important persons
there Is a man behind the scenes. He
is the chef, Spanish-born Germemias
Baz, from the exclusive Colony Club.
Like all good cooks Baz began at
the bottom. At sixteen he was appren-
ticed in hotel course in Paris. The
cooking apprenticeship, as he puts 1t,
took him through every course from
fried foods to the supreme tests OF all
cooking ability - sauces and pastry.
Baz today is great artist.
Yet it is amusing to learn what this
master of cooking would like best If
somebody was preparing a meal for
him. "A piece of steak he says,
French fried potatoes. lettuce with oil
and vinegar, and piece of apple pie
ol lIe OlIleI lldllu, "ilSii IC piS-
pared a dinner for his wife on her last
birthday, the menu was quite diff
ferent. There were broiled squad
chicken, candied sweet potatoes. fresh
string beans. chefs salad made of
sliced tomatoes, strips of green pep
pers, chopped eggs, lettuce and French
dressing. For the dressing he used oil,
vinegar. salt and little mustard.
For dessert baked two cakes
he says, for my wife and my daughter
celebrate their birthdays together.
My daughter is only three and we
couldn't let her eat the cake, but she
had to have one anyhow
So we give you recipe for birth
day cake to make at home. And we
add two entree recipes which Baz
makes public for our readers.

but this much can be said: II you
have not seen the full-length YER
sion, then you have never seen the
play at all. 1t makes all the whit

like picked pears scattered about

There are quite few other plays

merit playgoer's attention. The
best Of these, among the new ones,
Is William Saroyan's Time of Your
Life"
People come away from this play
muttering that they can't under
stand it, and think it's dull, and one
stuck his head into the Office to

mutely.
To them, say this: Mr.. Saroyan
has put much in his play that is bad
and dull and meaningless. However,
his play is a prose poem, dedicated
to the little people of the earth.
They are all poor and sweetly yearn-
ing, and, whatever happens to them,
they remain sweetly yearning. Their
brains are like fresh flowers bloom
ing in their skulls, and I found my
self ready to excuse anything for
the chance to spend an evening with
them.

will call Miss Jones Chats not her
real name, ether, who is pro-
fessional shopper, catering to the
film elite, for one of the big de-
partment stores.
Miss Jones, 1t might be noted, is
q most remarkable individual. She
must know practically everything
about the merchandise her estab-
lishment offers. If you've ever
browsed through an 8 or 10 floor
department store, you'll understand
what that means.
Let's listen to how she does it:
"A star rarely starts thinking
about Christmas shopping until well
into December. This year a few
remembered in November. I'm
thankful for an early Thanksgiving
If that's responsible.
"She usually comes in with a list
OF what she has in mind for her
intimate friends. Money is no OBJ
ject here. She just can't be out
done, of course.
II help her out. Then in a few
days her secretary brings in another
list. 1t includes suggestions for les
ser friends and the folks she feels
she must remember. Prices usually
are specified, and they are not high
For effect, copies Of fine things are
much in demand.
Sometimes she wants similar or
identical items for large group
possibly associates on her last pic
ture. No partiality can be shown in
such cases.
The essential thing about shop
ping for star is finding something
new and different She wants to be
talked about for her originality.
Il see, or trye to, that she is"
Many are the Christmas notes to
which our Miss Jones has appended
stars name. Usually they are for
acquaintances unfamiliar with the
handwriting, although she creates a
reasonably exact facsimile when it S
needed.
But I must know my purchaser
very, very we'll" she observes. The
notes must be all milk and honey
innocuous and thoroughly uncontro-
versial. Even then it's chance
It's such dynamite, in fact, that l
steer away from it whenever I can -
The other day a feminine notable
dropped in with a request for some
thing completely original for a boy
friend with a flair for fine food
Miss Jones obliged with rattlesnake
paste.
Friends of another star this year
will get a new thought in gift bas-
kets, containing such imported
products as caviar, pastes, cheeses.
Only domestic items are glasses of
figs and dates in brandy, and even
then the brandy is an import.
Rarely do Miss Jones choices fail
Of acceptance, for they're inva-
riably nice, and she credits most
film personages with excellent
taste. Besides, they spend a lot of
money and make jobs like Miss
Jones possible.
Occasionally, however, there's a
backfire.
