I a 0 r m Famed Latin Bandleader Appears Here If famed Latin Bandleader No- ro Morales had been anything but a musician, he would probably have been disowned by his fami- ly because three generations be- fore him were musical, too. Noro, now leading the orches- tra at Vanity Fair Lounge, intimate nightclub on the 79st. Causeway, was born in Puerto Rico, but mov- ed with his parents to Venezuela while he was a child. Since his father and a couple of uncles were musicians, Noro li- terally grew up in the profession. At one time he was a member of his father’s band, along with five brothers and two cousins — a real family affair —. When he came to the United States, he was one of the first Latin maestros to win national recognition, and for eight years was bandleader at three of New York’s top clubs, Stork, El Mo- roeco and L’Martinique. Chit Chat, or This N’ That Dan Topping, baseball bigwig, he rrived at Miami Beach, and v not at Hialeah Race Track, " he goes daily, is at the Ivan- hc ~—aotel, where he is a guest. Former Ambassador Joseph Ken- ' and his Mrs., who spend the ‘r months at Palm Beach, are ar commuters between Miami ‘hat neighboring resort city, they arrive almost daily on alm Beach special to attend i -aces. Mrs. Lowell Wadmond, wife of ét president of the Metropolitan ra company, was a recent Mia- @ Beach visitor, and while here WwW s the guest of Mr. and Mrs. ‘arles Cumings at their Miami each home, Also the Cuming’s ouseguests were Mr. and Mrs, ohn §, Lithiby of Paris and Lon- don, who also visited Nassau.

Count Baron and Baroness von Poushental in on titled visitors to this territory, and in the stage realm, of course, Tallulah Bank- head, starring in “Streetcar Named Desire” at the Coconut Grove Playhouse, galmor gal Marion Mar- lowe and oh so many more, who delight Miamians not only with their performances, but with their friendliness when they attend va- ious functions throughout the area HELPFUL HINTS To appease that champagne ap- petite and you-know-what income: Grind that cooked turkey liver very fine, mix it with enough good mayonnaise to make a paste, Add a touch of garlic salt, black pep per, salt to taste. Pile the stuff on tiny squares of melba toast. But good. Don’t pull all of the suet into the festive “pudding. Save a little for the bird feeder, Fancy Feet fo be Fancy Free Pumps Will Still Spring Eternal Fancy feet will be fancy free. Resort shoes at the Delman shop in Bergdorf Goodman’s are fanci- ful, glitterful and gay, each de- signed to atract the eye, from the slight but arresting detail to the whole, keynote-of-the-costume ef- fect. New emphassis on the under profile of the shoe is seen through out this collection. A longer, more patrician line from the base of the . heel to the front of the arch is seen in all shoes from éiegant shal low pumps with very high heels, Did You Know Celebs Are Everywhere? Maybe you know, and maybe you don’t, but it is a safe thing to say that few cities rival Miami when it comes to celebrities. So look around — they’re here, there everywhere! Many live here, others come for visits during the winter season — and those who are too far away, or too busy to come, yearn to be here in this sunny clime and to participate in the var- _ious activities that make Miami so interesting to visitors, as well as home folks. } The Charles E. Wilsons slipped away from Washington not long ago for a rest here — or rather she did, and he is “commuting,” whenever his heavy responsibilities allow. The Wilsons have an apart- ment at the Sur club. Dr. and Mrs. John Oliver LaGor- ce have been wintertime residents in Miami Beach for many years — and the LaGorce streets, Circles and Island at the Beach, as well as LaGorce Country club, are nam- ed for him. Dr. LaGorce is presi- dent of the National Geographic Socity, as everybody knows. Not everybody knows, however, that Dr. LaGorce was at one time postmas- ter’ of Little America — an honor given him by his good friend Rear Adm, Richard E. Byrd. Lord and Lady Porchester of England (she is the former Jean Wallop) are spending their honey- moon at Miami Beach at the Gold- en Strand hotel, after which the British Lord and his Lady, an American-born girl, will go to Wyoming, and then London. His father, Earl Carnavoran is in Palm Beach. FANCY FEET — “Trapped” is the name of the shoe at left, and appropriate, indeed is this title, for straigt and thin as a_ knitting needle, to very elaborate string sandals. Pumps spring eternal in the Delman collection. Beautifully con- toured and gently tapered, they are moulded to the foot with featherlight inner constructions that. are not less strong but far more supple. The effect? A lean, sleek form that fits as smoothly as its shadow yet is soft and easy in the wearing. ‘RICH KABRICS Come touch me! is the provoca- tive and apropos gesture for shoes with rich, unusual textured sur- faces. “Raw” silk fabrics fashion a tweedy, romantically colored pump, pale companion to cotton and silk fashions. At the opposite pole is the glossy shoe of polished silk crepe with its quiet sheen that suits lunch to dance time. Lace adds tone-on-tone embellishment to that wardrobe necessity, the linen pump. It is first embroidered then lacquered to seem like a bas- relief of delicately sculptured flow- ers.. Kiki cloth, a special Delman silk importation from Japan, has thin, pared-down nubs surfacing white pump ment to be dipped in- to a rainbow of colors for head-to- toe color oneness so striking in brilliant tropical settings. Pale leathers point up the im- portance of textured shoes. Flax, Delman’s new ivory-tinted neutral and French Bread, a warm tone that literally mimics the crust co- lor, comes in shiny pearl-finished calfskin and grained leather, re- spectively. PLAY OF PATTERN Ther’s a pretty play of pattern in the collection. Fine slashes cut into patent leather make an uni- que diamond design for pumps and sandals. The winter success of the antique bookprint leather inspired a successor for Southern wear. This one has a gracefully executed scroll: and flower motif borrowed from the elaborately de- tailed Persian tapestries, Sharp black and white, frosty gold and white or /shadowy white-on-white are the eye-stopping printed lea- ther combinations destined for so phisticated all-white or all-black resort clothes. Printed silks add new-found lux- ury to another shoe group. Sta- ron’s brushstroke design which gives the lovely, misty aspect of a water color painting shaded in pinks, blues to greens or beige to browns, is a sumptuous footnote for pump, greta” or its sandal variant, “Jabot”. Latter is accent- ed with exactly matched leather banded on the vamp and for the heels. its effect on the male population. The G. String sandal is from Delman’s collection. A gay pretender in the way of foot covering, it’s a private brand of shoe wizardry that produces pure witchery. come night- fall.. Slender, but strong elastic threads, attached to narrow black suede understrips, clasp shoe to foot with a lover’s knot. High curved needle heels. The shoe is just as devastating in black satin, or white dyed — to costume color. At right, is “Jabot” also from Delman’s Resort collection. Smooth silk and supersmooth calf, form a slick combination in this halter sandal. Sea foam, a beautiful blue-to-green color scheme ,is used for the Staron brushstroke fabric and again for calfskin strip knotted vamps. Colored HEMISPHERE leather heels, too. “Jabot” sells for $32.95; “Trapped” is priced at $34.95. SUNDAY, JANUARY 29, 1956 _
