You know the type-the people
who are always saying, There's
nothing In this town to compare to
Mixes or Terrible Tony's or Jittery
Joe's back home" or the kind of
conversation that eventually winds
up in this vein, What I wouldn' It
give to find good spot where I
could really let my hail down."
Enough of this word mincing,
this dilatory dribble, head directly
over to the Windsor Room. Just to
be fair and square about the thing,
however. we'll warn you ahead of
time. You may have to wait. This
place packs them in.
What is it about the Windsor
Room that makes it so popular
with the service crowds? The Spec
tator has been asked that question
more than once. And we've never
answered it more than once the
same way. First of all, it's pretty
hard to resist the sound of genuine
gaiety, the lusty-voiced patrons
who may be heard singing for as
many as several doors away. Once
inside, the smoke is dense, the din
constant, the music continual.
Matt Windsor, proprietor of the
spot, has been a Snowman all his
life. He knows what young people
like. In fact, he makes them feel so
much at home that he never has
TO worry about a floor show. The
customers are it-if you could call
the Windsor Rooms impromptu
amateur stunt floor show. A small
bandstand equipped with a piano
puts the crowd in the mood. Then
any one who ever struck an ivory OF
sounded, even a sour high c is in
vited to come up and show off his
talents.
Blushing sergeants and bashful
privates, even the WACS and
WAVES are persuaded to forget
their shyness. It's all in the spirit
of fun which is exactly what every
body seems to be having in the
Windsor Room. Believe us, if you
haven't snapped your best yarn
with the fellow next to you before
the evenings over then there S
something wrong with you. not the
Windsor Room.

At last, the Spectator has found
a night club singer what fatty re-
fuses to do a Broadway musical.
That's what she said and we're TAX

Simple explanation Of the phe-

before venturing into night club

was producing her own radio show.
On the air Jeri did whatever her
mood happened to dictate at that

her favorite poetry perhaps, even
