THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, Versatile Lass D. C., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1935. Supper Club Notes HOREHAM—Dade and Weir headline the floor show, which is done on the terrace or in the ball room, according to the dic~ tates of the weather. Rosemary Mo- ran, musical comedy dancer, does whirlwind toe numbers, the Kelo brothers contribute “collegiate antics,” whatever those may be, and Barnee and the Maxim Lowe Orchestra make the music. * ok ok % Madrillon—Peter Borras, who is your host here, claims it is the food which has kept his dine and dance spot pop- ular year after year, and after you once try it you will know what he means. Music for dancing is played by Leon Brusiloff and the Brusilofians, who toot their horns until 2 a.m. a8 Maryland Club Gardens—There is | no floor show until the newly deco- rated “Winter Garden” is officially opened, but there is continual “spot entertainment” of the highest order. Fran Trappe, favorite of last Winter, piays his accordion; Dorothy Neville sings and Owen Lusak, who is 17 years old and something of a sensation, does | violin solos. Al Barkley's New York- ers are the “music.” * % k % Rainbow Room—Milton Davis leads | It is completely at ease | the orchestra. with any and all requests which pop | Legs Williams, Drucilla Drew, star of last season’s shows; Sid Sisko, dancer; Roscoe Dyla and Songstress Gypsy West. Music is by Tommy Myles’ red- hot 15-plece band. . ok kK Mayflower—Sidney’s music and Har- riet, queen of the cigarette lassies, are tke principal drawing cards here. * 4 % x Mayfair—Entertainment is by Du- vall and Ross, who play an accordion and violin and sing in some seven or eight languages, which is as it should be in a place-called the Cafe of All Nations. * % % Lotus—A pair of captivating plati- num blonds, known as the Andrew twins, tap dance to headline the floor show. Al Norton also introduces Hor- ton Spurr and his neat novelty act; Mary Chrysler, triple-tap specialist; Cyn Clair and Don Eddy and De Casta and Lee. Judy Ellington, who is just rounding out a year at the Lotus, sings in a Southern drawl that long. * ¥ * x Griffith Farms—The main event is the food, served either on the terrace | or in the dining room of the Colonial mansion. Other features are the cocktail lounge, the stand-up bar, the Hawallan Orchestra for nightly danc- ing. La Paree—Preparations are under way for & big Winter season, with shows from New York, music by |- Emory Daugherty’s Orchestra and songs in Marle Fowler’s individual style. * ok ok X Dude Ranch—Beginning next Tues- | day, one of last year’s popular customs will be revived, and every Tuesday night will be designated carnival | night. The floor show now has the Crystals, dance team; Dolly Dare, blues singer; Jimmy Staley and Dick | Bae. *'k ko Brooke Johns’ Old Barn—Brooke Johns sets a mighty fine table, in ad- dition to seeing that the band makes the right dance music and making you sure you feel at home. * x % % Swanee Ball Room—Washington's oldest and largest ball room opens for | the season this Saturday at 9:30 pm. and will be open henceforth every Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday | nights from 9:30 p.m. on. * % ox % Log Cabin Inn—A young lady who | is Swiss and popular serenades the | | | 2 cash customers strains from a well-trained accordion. here with dulcet PENS SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 14TH.

A good way to prevent cloudiness and keep the milk from sticking is to rinse the glasses thoroughly in cold ‘water before you wash them. When you have a refrigerator full | of left-overs, you might make a Salmagundi Salad. By the way, Salmagundi has a romantic origin —it was invented by pirate cooks who had to use a little bit of every- | thing in the larder to fill the stom- achs of the pirate crew! SALMAGUNDI SALAD Combine diced meats, celery, potato, pickle, apple, anchovy, lemon juice, water and seasoning; mix well. Toss together with mayonnaise and set in covered dish in refrigerator to chill. Serve either in- dividually or in salad bowl. Garnish with | slices of egg and chopped parsley. Serves | 8to 9.
