Commissioners Back
Stand Up Drinking
Al Licensed Bars
Action on Liquor Law
Revision Is Expected
Sometime This Week

Commissioner Melvin c. Hazen
yesterday joined Commissioners
John Russell Young and David Nc
Coach in declaring in favor of an
amendment of the District Liquor
Act to permit standing up" drink
ing at licensed bars.
This is one of the % major ques-
tions of changes in liquor law or
regulations considered by the Alco-
holic Beverage Control Board as a
result of the report last year by the
Eberharter subcommittee of the
House District Committee, upon
which recommendation have been
received by the city heads from the
Federation of Citizens Associations
and other groups as we'll as the A.
B. C. Board
The city heads are expected to take
up this document, the Eberharter
report and the suggestions OF the
A. B. C. Board and civic and busi-
ness groups for action sometime this
week.
Commissioner Young was the first
to announce he believed standing
UP drinking should be permitted.
About the same time, Engineer Com
missioner McCoach said he also felt
mo good purpose" was served by
the present rule that persons order
ing hard liquor drinks must be seat
ed at tables. but he then added that
ne wanted to be guided by the views
of organized civic groups.
The Federation of Citizens As
sociations suggested a change to
permit serving of hard liquor drinks
to persons seated at bars as well as
at tables, but did not 60 so far as
to recommend standing up drinking
However, after studying the SUBJ
ject for a while yesterday, Com
missioner McCoach announced he
favored full change. Later, Com
missioner Hazen declared he was
for it.
The Commissioners ask why it
should be that at a cocktail party
given at a licensed hotel. a guest
should be tapped on the shoulder by
waiter and reminded that he is
not permitted under the law tc
carry his drink from one table tc
another as he moves around from
one friend to another This is g
violation, under present rules.
There were indications also that
the Commissioners weuld reject q
proposal that advertising of liquor
prices be forbidden.

200 More Girls Register
In Second Dance Draft

About 200 more Government girls
yielded up such cherished secrets as
their age, weight and telephone
numbers for their country's sake
here yesterday as the second dance
draft was staged at the District
Building.
Most of those who registered got a
chance to go into action on the light
fantastic front Immediately. About
Is of the girls went to Quantico, Va,
to a Marine dance last night and an
other rs were sent to a barn dance
in Alexandria, attended by Army
men from this area.
The dance draft was staged by
the Government Employees Service
Committee, which is seeking to build
up a reserve corps of 1000 Govern
ment girls to act as partners for
service men at dances in this area.
Those who appeared at the Dis
trict Building yesterday were seated
at desks with volunteer workers,
who filled out questionnaires.
Some of the volunteers were young
men-who explained that they were
on their honor not to transfer any
of the names and the phone num-
bers into their personal files.
Men Interviewers Critical.
The girls were asked their height,
weight, age, dancing ability and the
interv1ewers graded their appear
ance and personality as excellent" "
good" fair" or poor"
The men interviewers had tend
ency to be a little more critical in
their appraisals than the women
| interviewers.
Il expect I'll be in one of those
camps before long," one man ex-
planned. I'm trying to give honest
answers here. 1 know that I don't
want them to send bunch of dopes
out when I'm there"
The interviewers have found 1t
necessary to do a little juggling
with the age and weight figures
which some girls give them. They've
had girls with silver threads among
the gold insisting that they were
in their early 20s and have had
heavyweights reducing themselves
to 125 pounds.
Subject to Revision.
All these figures are subject to
revision, and the interviewers &c
a little easy in accepting a girls
word that her dancing is excellent

to the regulars.

ment by Mr.. Fadiman that Mr..
Levant would know the answer
to a bathtub question. Mr.. Fadi-
mans avowed dislike for opera
was protested against by the
people who hold opera only
slightly lower than their reli-
gion."
What Mr.. Fadiman thinks of
radio commercials would con-
sumo several volumes. In a word,
he believes soup in can is just
canned soup and that it will not
solve marital difflculties or make

else. But the prize package was

to comment, in answer to a
