After Dark Smart People, Smart Things, Smart Places. By the Spectator. T with the whims of the citisens who play at the midnight merry-go-rounds being what they are . . . this i no mean achievement of the Club Trolks . . . weathering four years, from back in 19832, embarking Monday on its fifth year of contrib- uting Muscovite merriment to the town’s night life . . flton has decided to celebrate the oc- casion by bringing back the lass who sang at Troika when it opened . . Miss Zinaida Nicolina, who sings in five languages, of whom a New York reviewer said, “Can lend pathos to a song in a manner unsurpassed,” which 1s an elaborate mouthful of words for s reviewer to say about anybody . . . though Dave Apollon says the same thing . . . Nicolina’s known well here, too, having sung at sundry society af- fairs . . . and she's appeared abroad under the sponsorship of Edward, Duke of Windsor, when he was Prince of Wales; Michael Tolstoi, Nikita Balieft . . and Monday she’ll sing again for ‘Washington at the Troika .. . sss A ND sinoe singing seems to be the topic of the moment, there’s the subject of these folk who sing or otherwise turn extrovert and entertain themselves at the tonier biergartens » o » Like the other night at Heigh-Ho + + . When, before the eyes of Mrs. Jock Whitney . . . Jean Ullman . . . other ‘well-known citi- zens.. . . Helene Fortescue Reyn- olds decided the | ; evening needed livening up . . . ascended to the bandstand, took up Marty Rubin's bass fiddle, slap- ¢ ped neat rhythm xu-nwhlle...lohn then decided the drums would suit her purpose bet- ter Levick’s snares and things . . . and did both departments . asked if she hld N . whereupon she de- t.he bandstand . . . did not, however, ride away in a grocer’s fruck . . . And down the street at the Troika the night before . . . Sam Sax- onsky was quietly fiddling away when & sudden sweet voice lifted in song . . and all the chitter-chatter about the tables stopped as the Troikaites lis- tened to “Sweet Mystery of Life” and “Indian Love Call,” as chanted sweet- 1y by a lass at a ringside table . . . who turned out to be Marjorie Gainsworth . . . late of the St. Moritz Hotel and now on the way to the Chicago Civic Opera Co. . . . dropping in at the Troika with a local legislator . . . and, of course, down at the Hi-Hat there’s always the chance that some one will step up, grab the mike by the ears, give vent to sing . . . just for his own . and sometimes the .“IT MAY be getting nigh onto Christmas . . . and the past week most of the vuln(en may have been at home resting from shopping bat- | El tles at night . . . but some of them #till got around . . . As the host of #ocialites who turned out at the Pall Mall room Monday night to welcome back to the Raleigh and Washington Don Loper and Beth Hayes, handsome and talented ball room dancers . . . and Commissioner Hazer has been seen often of late making a pal of the Pall Mall . . . (So pronounce it so it rhymes, and not in the English fash- fon) ., . also Mrs. Evalyn Walsh Mc- Lean . . . Martha Talley, who just made her debut, with a group of friends from her home State, Texas « . . Mrs. Flavel Roes, lunching often with friends . . . maybe because that's the time they can hear Eddie Elkins’ arrangement of the ballad written by Raleigh Manager Curt Schiffeler . . . Margo Chase and Genevieve Marsh, debutantes of yesterday, were feted yesterday at the Shoreham at a dinner party given by Mrs. B. P. Lamberton « « . and frequently at the same ball room have been seen Mary Senate Howes, much-feted “ranking deb” (her father’s Pirst Assistant Postmaster General) . . . and Eleanor Eccles, daughter of the Federal Reserve Board chairman, home from college for the holidays (she’s home from college, not her father) , , . While Troika stays diplomatic . . . with such folk as Charles Ortes de Zevallos, secretary de 1a Delegacion del Peru . . . Joseph J. H. Beelen of the Netherlands Lega- tion . . . and & liberal sprinkling of Army captains, majors and colonels . And the Heigh Ho-ites have been Mrs. Laura Curtis and a big party . . . e crew from last Saturday’s swank soiree at Chevy Chase Club . . .
