Patent Office. local night haunts this week minus a fez . . . fezes have been here and fezes have been there and if Harriett, the Mayflower's winsome cigarette mammy had heark- ened to all those who wished to put fezes at her feet, why, then, Harriett _would have done better than Sir Wal- IT’S been tough getting into the i ter Raleigh’s lass . . . However, she’s wintered the torrid fez season very well indeed, and her small, blond, high-keyed voice has echoed “cigar- ettes” through the cool reaches of the Mayflower's lobby with that same sly insouciance which has put her on the map already as a regular person . .. Then again Harriett always has her eyes open and she knows, for in- stance, when she sees lawyer Emory Buckner sitting by a palm on one side of the room, or if that's Deputy Imperial Potentate and Mrs. L. P. Steuart sitting in another corner . . . and then by giminy her eyes got gay the other afternoon and she spied Mr. and Mrs. William Phillips over yon- der, and Senator Elmer Thomas yon- derer than that, and besides that Mrs. Charles Edison, Admiral George Witthoeft, Vera Montgomery, George Shaw and Bob Cottrell making merry also . . . The Mayflower, in other words, which is one of the coolest afternoon or evening spots in town, has been up to the neck in people and more people. * ** According to the scribes: Eddy Duchin has been seen at the Powha- tan, the Shoreham and the Cotton Club this week . . . which means that the Earle’s giant of jazz has kept his eyes open as well as playing four shows a day, doing a radio program, and lis- tening to many an auditionist . . . in other words the guy knows his busi- ness Mrs. Duchin were entertained the other night up at the Powhatan, they were the guests of Horace Lauttrell, and Doggy Waggaman and Mrs. Helen Marye Thomas were in the party, too . then again “Spike” Johnston, crony of the Boston Lymans (where once pianist Kurt Hetzel played) and now associated with the late N. R. A., was seen there in a handsome new linen suit awaiting the arrival of one | of the town’s better-looking daughters . .. others noted: Virginia Hall, Peggy Gibbins, Marion Somerville, Jean Ul- man and Dick Lyons, Judy and Elliott ... besides that, when he and | . Boles, Representative Florence Kahn, Ethel Mae Taylor and Senator McNary. «++]f you go to the Cotton Club sometime late this week you'll prob- ably see some of the cast of the War- ner Bros. “Dress Parade” company. which is working like blazes down at Annapolis right now . . . if the boys and girls can get away (and don't miss a young lady named Treen) and they don’t have to punt up and down the Chesapeake, or play marbies with the “middies” in Baneroft Hall, they say that they would like to get a glimpse of this well-known spot which seems to have made its mark even way out in Hollywood . . . so late in .| the week (and the Cotton Club stays open till 4:30 am.) you may run across Miss Treen, or Dick Powell, or Robert Sowers, or Princeton’s Nick Foran, who once played foot ball and who made his Hollywood mark in “Gentlemen Are Born.” * * * Day after tomorrow the Wil- lard’s bamboo room will call it a day for the season . .. in the meantime, Eddie Plerce is taking Fenton Froom's place as the basso canary and will warble for the next two days in place of the lad who has warbled all season and who is now in search of water, waves and Summer waffles. * ¢ * Every day now the phone rings and some ambitious dancer is asking the Reyes (Shoreham rumba artists) if they won't teach him or her the . and if you don’t particular- to learn that from them at least make certain that you see them do “cranking the Ford,” & new number which Waldorf-Astoria patrons cried for this Winter in New York ... And | if you miss that, be sure that you see them after the show being entertained | by this or that or the other local | celebrity . . . the other night, for in- | stance, that authority on Russia, Richard Sanger. whose new home out Westmoreland way attracts many a swanky woodchopper over the week end, was seen having a “leemonade” | with attractive young Eva R. . .. and after that dinner which the local press attended in the Reyes’ honor, who should be seen duncing here and there but the Hon. W. N. McG. Hogg of the British Embassy, whose father is England’s minister of war; Ian Wilson-Young, with a beauteous lady in green with a profile; Abigail Sard, who, with her mother, Mrs. Sard, are | entertaining today at Laura Curtis’ Club in honor of Katrina McCormick, | who gets married Saturday, and Lar- ry Haugen, famed New York banker and son of the late Representative. * * * Bagpipes have had their day at the Hi-Hat this week (courtesy of | the Shriners) . .. John Lowe, assistant | director for some of Harold Liloyd's films, has been an enthusiastic Ha- bana Roof (Arlington) customer . . . | The acrobatic dancer at the Madrillon this week is swell . . . And the three | skaters up at the Lotus are ditto |. .. The Dude Ranch is at its best right now, having been redecorated, and since Kathryn Boyer of musical | comedy fame is there . . .

Then, Bill Merriam, man-about-town, re- | cently returned from New York; so all is well again . . . And he has arranged | a fashion show to be held at the Gar- dens pool Saturday afternoon, at which you will see both what you may and may not wear this season.
