When the night arrives on which
you are confronted by q plush rope
instead Of q plush greeting at the
door Of the Shoreham Blue Room,
don't 60 around town snarling that
we did not give you sufficient ad-
vance warning. Come the night Of
Easter Monday. March 20, the Blue
Room will not be one Of those places
you can drop In on without letting
the headwaiter know you're on your
way.
For one thing Lent will be over,
tourists will start arriving, and bust
ness will be better at all the After
Dark resorts, their proprietors hope.
For another thing, the Shoreham
management knows q good thing
when it sees it, the good thing in
this case being the seemingly effort
less dancing Of the De Marcos, Sally
and Tony. March 20 Is the date
when they return to the Blue Room.
When they were here few weeks
ago, they flIled the Blue Room
nightly during their stay to its
outermost reaches. One Saturday
night was set down In the books as
the biggest in five years. Five years
ago there was a war on, loose cash
was abroad and the greatest talent
required for successful night club
operation was a skill at jumping out
Of the way to avoid being trampled
after opening the door. Now the
talent most likely to I'LL room with
customers seems to be a skill at hir-
ing the De Marcos.
This coming engagement Is some
thing In the nature OF q delayed
holdover. The last stay would have
been heightened except for q book
ing snarl-an act already signed
whose appearance couldn't be post
poned-so the Shoreham did the
next best thing. The De Marcos
were grabbed for their first open
date.
Perhaps it's Just as well that 1t
worked out this way. Shortly after
he left here, Tony came down with
the flu and was put on a diet of
penicillin and rest for q few days.
Then there are all those people who
don't 60 out during Lent. They de-
serve their chance to watch the De
Marcos In action, too.

LISTS MISTAKES MADE
BY LICENSE SEEKERS

The most frequent COMMISSIONS in
filling out applications for 194S
drivers licenses were listed this
week by Charles l.. Sheridan, Mon
tana highway patrol supervisor.
Many applications have to be held
up for want of the 1947 drivers
license. Failure to send last years
license, stamped by the county treas
urer "1948 Fee Paid" results in the
application being delayed anywhere
from a few days to two weeks.
Colonel Sheridan emphasized that
the receipt issued by the county
treasurer serves as a 90-day tenn
porary permit to drive, and serves
as a license while the application
is being processed.
The second most common ommis-
sion is failure to sign the affidavit
on the application. There are three
places where a signature is required,
one on the application form and two
on the license form.
Some applications are being re-
ceived where the name is given
as Mrs. John Q. Smith, for instance,
when the given name should be used,
as Mary Hawkins Smith. While
infrequent, this necessitates the re-
turn of the application and the max
ing of a new set.
The general rule to follow in
preparing applications and license
forms is to fill in every blank.
Next to not finding the 1947
drivers license enclosed, as a cause
of delay is finding the treasurer's re-
ceipt for fee enclosed, or hunting Ii
censes, car license receipts, deer
tags, etc., and in the next days
mail requests for their immediate
return, together with notes of apol-
ogy for the trouble caused by the
mistake.
Over 10000 applications a day
were received in the first two weeks,
and approximately 1000 licenses
were issued and mailed out by the
end of the second week, Colonel
Sheridan stated. /,

Hazardous , Winter

An average of '983 pedestrians
were killed each month in traffic
accidents last year, but this average
is by no mean representative of the
hazardous winter months, according
to safety experts of the national ON
servation bureau. November, De-
cember and January are the most
dangerous for the pedestrian-main-
ly because slippery pavements
make it difficult for drivers to stop
in time to avoid hitting the man on
