After Dark
News and Comment Of the Night Clubs.
Trade Registered o. 8. Patent ono

forced on Beatrice Kraft, who shares
the Troika spotlight with Miss Wynn.
Miss Kraft's speciality is injecting sly
humor into East Indian dances and
the wonderful effects she achieves
are based both on her wit and on a
deal Of technical skill and anthem
ITCHY. 1t is the authenticity which
sometimes makes life interesting.
There were, for instance, the six
Mohammedans. They adopted Miss
Kraft one night when she was ap-
pearing at New York'S Cafe Society
Uptown. Came early, sat teetotally
through three shows and departed
only when the place was locked up
at am. Being good neighborly
type and thinking to make their
night club visit happier, Miss Kraft
joined them in those periods when
she wasn't dancing. However, since
the Mohammedans spoke no English
and Miss Kraft spoke no Urdu,
repartee was at virtually its lowest
point around that table. ALI Miss
K. could do was turn what she felt
was silly grin on one or another
of her admirers at regular intervals.
Quite trying evening.
She probably was saved another
just tae other night by the Troika's
rules and price lists. A young In
dian Cast, not North Americana
saw Miss Kraft's picture in the
window and came upstairs to see her
dance automatically. He picked out
a likely spot and sat down. Drink"
the waiter asked. He didn't want
any. Something to eat?" No, he
just wanted to see Miss Kraft dance
Confused, the waiter retreated to
think this over. Finally he returned
to warn the young man there was
minimum charge, whether he
drank or ate or just sat there look
ing inscrutable. The young Indian
thought this over, then silently de-
parted, looking inscrutable.

Myrus, headliner of the Statler
Embassy Room floor show, may be
wizard of mental telepathy," as
reported. but even he cannot fathom
the ways of an Army. The other
night a young soldier was watching
Myrus mysteriouSly answer ques-
tons and decided that would be a
good time to find out what chance
he had Of getting an extension OF
leave for which he had wired his
commanding officer.
THE young man who wants to
know about his leave" Myrus said
can stop worrying. The extension
will arrive day after tomorrow.
Next morning the young man got
a wire from his c. O., advising him
to get the heck back to camp with
no dilly- dallying.
