The Embassy Room
Goes Continental
With New Sinqer

Now. it is the Statler Embassy
Rooms turn to go continental,
with sultry songstress named
Amru Sani, who is making her
American debut there this week.
Panama-born, she is citizen Of
India. where her father was born,
and an entertainer who has put
considerable distance behind her.
She grew up in Kingston. Jamaica,
went to England during the war
and became a WAAF, starting her
career singing in service shows.
Since then she has sung in night
clubs in England. India, France,
Greece. Italy and Egypt.
Amru SAM and United States
audiences ought to get along well
together. after they get to know
each other better. She is a tall
and striking brunette with some-
thing of dramatic flair. She has
one Of those sensuous voices that
would make London Times edi-
torial sound like a ballad of
amour if sung in French. She
speaks French. naturally. being al
continental singer. along with
English, Spanish and italian.
On her maiden United States
effort at the Embassy Room she
seemed to be singing in all of these
tongues, too (though not at the
same time). Too much of a lean
ing toward songs in foreign lam
guages, in fact, was the only seri-
Gus error Amru SAM committed
on her opening night here. Around
these parts you have to hit a night
club audience with "You Belong
To Me" early and then you can get
AS continental as you like. This
girl should do all right, though.
She has style.

Ito be that men who wanted to

admit it. Now every kid from

Thunderstorm, currently direct

that the weak showing of beauti-

can be attributed in part to their
luck in finding generous husbands

this startling statistic proves that

project by a group of women.
Friendships are made and qualities
of leadership are developed in the
planning and serving of a successful
dinner for crowd.
Group Achievement
A good general chairman will be
able to recognize ability in others
allowing subchairmen to direct their
own committees and to inspire them
to do some original thinking. Ideas
and short cuts can never stem from
one individual alone. Group think
ing can yield great results.
What subchairmen does the gen
eral chairman for dinner need?
Probably these four publicity, kitch-
en-. dining room and clean up.
The publicity committee sets up
the advertising, has charge of selling
the tickets ahead of time and at the
dinner, keeping a record of all mon
ey received and of notifying special
groups and guests.
The kitchen committee has the
major responsibility and divides
itself into menu planning, marketing
or soliciting and food preparation. a
well balanced, satisfying and attrac-
tive meal can be planned, taking into
consideration the group to be served
"a woman's luncheon would be
different from a dinner for men), the
cost, the number to be served and
the ability of the workers.
If the food is all to be prepared in
the kitchen group should be as
signed for each-the meat, the vege-
tables, the dessert. The method OF
recipe should be agreed upon by the
group. If the food is to be prepared
at home and brought in, some one
will be responsible for soliciting and
checking the food as it is brought in

food prepared at home; however, this
fact in itself adds to the interest.
If yours is a nationality group,
feature some of the foods such as
Cornish pasties, Swedish meat balls
or Iutefisk. Some groups become
famous for these special dinners
served year after year, and people
look forward to them.
If the kitchen committee is so
minded it can be especially thought-
full of the clean up committee in
washing up all possible pots and
pans and dishes used in preparation
and it will work wonders in good
feeling.
The dining room committee sets
up the tables and chairs, checks and
gets out the dishes, silver, glasses,
table coverings and decorations. 1t
usually has charge, too, of the serv-
ing and gets the mattresses, who
put the jellies, pickles, butter and
such on the tables and clear the
tables after the meal.
Styles of Service
There are three types of service:
Family style, table service and cafe
terra. For family style, platters of
meat, bowls of vegetables, ETC., are
placed on the table and every one
helps himself. This requires fewer
mattresses. The plates are served in
the kitchen for table service. For
cafeteria or buffet each serves him
self Communities vary in the type
of service preferred. AS group
works together it is interesting how
labor and step-saving ideas are de-
veloped.
The cleanup committee is the
fourth and the least glamorous but
very important. 1t can develop
methods of saving labor and time
such as the arrangement of the
equipment, handling the soiled
dishes, scraping and washing. Double
sinks away from the wall permit
working around them, with ample
table space on the one side for
soiled dishes and on the other side
tables, cupboards and shelves where
the clean dishes may be stored Il
a kitchen for serving large crowds is
to be planned it should be by the
women who have and will work
in it.
We hope there will always bt

Smith Of Princeton,
Star in Harvard Rout,
Named Back Of Week
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-Homer
Smith, Princeton's old-fashioned
power plunging fullback, was
named Associated Press back of
the week today for his tremendous
ability to do the primary thing
with football-namely, run with
lit.
Smith was the top back of last
Saturday by simply overpowering
Harvard in an awesome display
Of slam-bang football contrast
to the slick T-formation quarter
backs and speedy, clever half
backs who often gain the headlines
without being hit hard more than
a handful of times in a game.
Starting from the first time
Princeton got the ball, Smith
ripped through the Harvard line
for four touchdowns and 273
yards. the greatest running per-
formance by a major college back
this year.
Princeton's first play from
scrimmage gave an indication of
how the game would progress.
Smith, lining up in the fullbsck
slot OF Princeton's single-wing Of
tense. took the snap from center.
faxed reverse to the circling
wing-back and was off for the goal
70 yards away. He burst through
Princeton's left tackle, cut back to
the right and outran or bowled
over anybody who barred his path.

Ipointedly.
Johnny disagrees. "I weigh
about 1884," he told a reporter
"And I had my best college year
at that weight. I'm in good
shape"
Karras is somewhat shy, par
ticularly in talking about his play
ing. But he says:
Frankly, think I've been do
ing all right. Naturally. I'd like
to play a little more. But I just
can't go UP and ask Joe what's
wrong. I'm not that kind of fell
low. I figure he'll tell me If he
thinks I'm not doing all right. He
hasn't said anything.
Actually. I've played only
about 20 minutes all year. ] don't
think I've been in there long
enough to prove just what really
can do"
Kuharich, despite his frank
statements on Johnny's play,
would seem to 60 along with this.
Naturally, Johnny could use
more game experience" he says.
But we've never had enough of
a lead to really test him.
