He is building motor hotels,
similar to those on the Po-
tomac, on the outskirts of
Philadelphia and Dallas.
More than $40 million of
that $50 million gross will
be from providing meals for
airplane passengers. His
company is the largest in
this field.
He shas seven Hot Shoppes
on the New York thruway
between the metropolis and
Albany.
He feels that one of the
elements of Hot Shoppes'
success is that there is a
strict discipline about rec
ipes in the kitchen. The
creative chef has no leeway.
Ingredients are proportion
ed meticulously.
New recipes are added from
time to time. If they sell,
they stay on the menu. If
not, they are &iropped. The
public is the judge. Old fav-
oriteS continue unchanged.
He thinks the chicken soup,
made according to a recipe
which took 10 years to ar
rive at, is very good.
Fifty million dollars a
year! Something of an in
crease over his initial busi-
ness, selling A&W Root Beer
at 5 cents a schooner from a
big cask on Bladensburg road

Rambler
Goes to q
Polynesiun Purty
By GEORGE KENNEDY

s
A comedy of errors start
ed the other day when the
Rambler received an invi-
tation to a Polynesian party
from Bill Marriott, jr., and
overlooked the Junior"
1t was a very inviting in
vite to a sort of Waikiki
Beach party at the pool of
Marriott's motor-hotel at
the Virginia end of the Four
teenth Street Bridge.
All would have gone well
but for the Rambler's stop
ping at the establishment
for a late breakfast on his
way to work.
In came the man himself,
]. Willard Marriott, president
and founder of the chain of
restaurants and motor
hotels.
Bill" the Rambler said
amiably, I'm coming to
your party Sunday"
What party?" asked Mr..
Marriott, greatly surprised.
Your Polynesian party"
who's giving it?"
"You are"
What kind of a party?"
"a Polynesian party. You
know, poi and hula dances
and all that sort of thing"
Mr.. Marriott was still in
credulous. He said:
1--WE always have ample
poi and cherry poi. Today
we have fresh strawberry
poi, which I recommend
highly. But you're not going
to get a floor show at the Hot
Shoppes."
Then he became serious.
Nov what's this all about?
I've been out of town for
several days, and got back
this morning."

Primary Edge
Seen at q to |

Backers Of Senator Kennedy
are predicting a landslide VIC
tory tomorrow for the Massa-
chusetts Democrat when Free
Staters vote in Maryland's pri-
mary.
With estimates of the Ken
nedy margin running as high
as four to one, the presidential
candidate and his primary
opponent, Senator Morse, have
shifted their efforts to Oregon.
In his home State, Senator
Morse is favored. Before leav-
ing Maryland, hackers of the
Oregon Democrat said they
thought anything more than 10
per cent of the Free State pri-
mary vote would be a moral
victory" Senator Morse made
his final primary appearance in
Maryland yesterday before the
Democratic Club in Accokeek.
100000 Expected at Polls
Close to 100000 Democrats
are expected to go to the polls
in Maryland tomorrow. In addi-
ton to the Kennedy Morse con-
test, congressional primaries
and a Montgomery County
judges race are generating in
terest in Washington suburbs.
In the 9Th district, observers
are predicting easy wins for
Representatives John Foley,
Democrat, and Charles Nc. C.
Matthias, Republican, in their
campaigns for congressional
nominations.
A last-minute development
in the 5th district saw Rep
resentative Lankford, Demo-
crat, charge that Teamster
Boss James Hoffa is trying to
get him defeated in tomorroW's
primary.
Mr.. Landlord said at a Ken
nedy rally Saturday night at
the University of Maryland that
area TeamsterS have been sent
letters to local members urg-
ing them to vote for his oppo-
nent in the Democratic pri-
mary, Walter L. Green.
The letter said that Mr..
Landlord has turned his back
on us dabor and said that
Mr.. Green "is a friend of the
working man."
Blasts Airport Decision
The third candidate in the
Democratic primary, Ray Mar
tin, told the rally Mr.. Lankford
and Mr.. Green should stop
shadow boxing and start dis
cusSing the issues"
He said slot machine opera
ton in four counties of the
5th district is one of the major
issues. Mr.. Martin also crit
icized the Government for
building an airport at Chan
tilly, Va, when Friendship Air.
port near Baltimore ''is capable
of handling the needs of the
area"
In addition to the Kennedy
Morse race and the congress
sional primaries, voters in
Montgomery County will decide
race for the Circuit Court
judgeship that has developed
widespread interest.

Ralph Shure, regarded as the
two front runners, have become

An electrical relay that
worked too well was blamed
today for the failure of a test
launching in the $343 million
Mercury man-in-space project.
The circuit involved two
plugs that connected the cleo
trical wiring of a Redstone
rocket to the launching pad on
which the missile stood, project
officials revealed. When one
plug automatically discon-
nected a few thousandths of a
second early, this series of
events occurred at lightning
speed:
