The Old Guard

The management of the Plaza
Hotel had a small party to say
good-by to an old employe. He
is Jack Koch, headwaiter at the
Plaza's main restaurant for many
a year and an employe of the
hotel since 1908. Koch is one of
the last of the old guard who
can remember back to the great
days of Diamond Jim Brady,
"Bet A Million" Gates, Maxine
Elliott, Enrico Cruso, Geraldine
Farrar and other colorful char
acters of q colorful time in
town. Caruso once sang for Jack
and the guests in the Plaza din
ming room and Jack still keeps
discreetly mum about big tips he
got from such lavish spenders as
White Hat McCarty. the original
Texas millionaire. About the only
member of the old guard who
was still around for Jacks fare
well was Clara Bell Walsh, who's
been a Plaza landmark as long
as Jack himself. Others on hand
were Charles Fotiou, Dukas
StavroS and Chris Karas, all of
whom have labored with Jack
since 1908.
There was a big birthday party
last Tuesday night at Basin street
for a trumpet player named
Louis Armstrong. Pops was hav-

greatest natural musician this
country has produced and, on
the big night. he was blowing
clear as bell and singing up
a regular storm. All the band
men who are in town were in at
tendance and Louis put forth
with his best notes. His current
group has Trummy Young on
trombone, Eddie Barefield on
clarinet, the acrobatic Arvell
Shaw on bass, Billy Kyle at the
keyboard and Barrett Deems on
drums. After Al years of profess
sional musicianship, Pops gives
no signs of slowing down or

Mother Mary Of England was

many an afternoon in the royal
box at Wimbledon.
During o match In the '20s.
when she was Queen. the sun
was shining directly into the
box. Her majesty moved her
parasol this way and that, trying
to capture q little shade. but her
efforts were in vain.
Finally. after the first set. she
rose and moved from her seat
in the front row to the row be-
hind. The moment she got to
Iher. feet, every one else in the
stadium stood up also. and re-
manned standing until she re-
sumed her seat.
Queen Mary watched the
match in comfort, but the sun
was not her ally. 1t kept sinking.
and as 1t did, its rays continued
to haraSs her majesty.
At the end Of the second set,
she moved again. to the third
row. She retreated one row after
each set. Each time she did 80,
the spectators leaped to their
feet.
Members Of the committee,
found the situation most trying.
They were guests in the royal
box. Each time the Queen moved
back, they moved back also, as
mo one sits in front of royalty.
When she finally reached the
last row in the box, they were
forced to squeeze themselves
into the few inches remaining
behind her.

on. Nothing doing in the red
suits, that's for sure. II the
clubs break 3-3. that viii give 1t
to me. But the odds are against
that division.
Then what about the trump
suit? II I could lay down just
the ace and king of spades. the
queen would be left on the board.
And now If could only ruiz
three cards from dummy with
my Jack and six and deuce OF
spades. / would have six trump
tricks instead of five. For this to
work the spades must break 81,
and the odds are in favor Of such
a division"
Mr.. Masters had played with
the odds as follows: The queen
of hearts was opened and Mr..
Abel won with the ace and re-
turned the suit. Mr., Masters
ruffed with the deuce Of spades.
He laid down the ace and king
otssaades. crossed to the ace Of
diknonas, returned q heart and
ruffed it wi1h the six Of spades.
Next he led to dummy's king OF
diamonds, played the last heart
from the board and rufied 1t
with the jack Of spades.
He entered dummy again with
the ace Of clubs and led the
Queen Of spades. picking up Mr..
Abel's ten and discarding club
from his own hand. Now the
queen Of diamonds furnished
the game-eQing trick.
