You can determine my

Idea Spreads
Other restaurateurs did not
exactly organize a stampede
to initiate, until last May. It
was then the Alcohol Bev-

puritanical shroud and said
people could drink on con-

The reaction to this was,

Light Drinkers Numerous
But as spring moves into
summer, the District licens-
ing bureau predicts even
more places will apply for
cafe licenses.
Harry Zittleman at Bas-
. sin'sSs currently the leading
authority on Washington
outdoor cafes, says the first
year was a battle. When
there was no liquor license,
he served a non-alcoholic
champagne; when 1t got cold
he put in infra-red ceiling
heaters.
That was a bust. People
Just don't sit out when it's
cold. Boy. the troubles we
had. When we got the ac-
Gordon, the District got into

Would 1t keep the people

Mr.. Zittleman has found
that light cocktails are slipped
more than hard liquor. II
guess the heavy drinkers go

Food Wanted Also
The owners who started
out with light food menus
found they had one common
problem. Europeans may
shudder, but American side
walk sitters have a disgust
ing habit Of wanting to eat
as well as drink. and most Of
the restaurants have had to
expand their kitchen facili-
ties, equip their places with
auxiliary kitchen units.
Complaints about a semi
cold steak or a semi-hot
martini or a napkin blown
away are infrequent. As Mr..
Zittleman said, anyone sit

Last year you could watch
