W, 8o Washington is just & town? A huddled Monday in the Roosevelt Hotel. Both establishments plan to deal in the matter of bands. Mr. Sachs likes the idea of the so-called “name” band. Miss Kramer sees eye to eye with Mr. Sachs on that score. As a result, the Del Rio opens with Dick Stabile’s outfit (Gracle Barrie and all); the Victory Room wnlllh) G‘I:m Miller (opening night only), then Bob Pastor for a 10-day stand Which, with such current torch- bearers as Layton Bailey, Joe Sudy, Barnee, Don Carper et al, should convince the most Chauvinistic New Yorker that he isn't the only lad who can have first-rate dance music by which to leisure away & happy midnight hour. As for decoration, motif to speak 1y, both recreation centers will be able to. thrust out the chest GRACIE BARRIE, Vocalist with Dick Stabile's Band, opening at the Del Rio. with ample justification. Miss Kramer prefers to be mysterious as far as her Victory Room is con- cerned, other than admitting that three walls of the Roosevelt's main floor have been knocked down to create a conservative sort of dine- and-wine parlor. She is also in- sistent that there will be no dot- dot - dot - dashes scattered indis- criminately about to emphasize any “victory” aspects of the place. Mr. Sachs, on the other hand, will not only divulge the innermost secrets of his heart’s plan for Del Rio, he will conduct you on a tour among Del Rio’s carpenters and plumbers at present scampering | around the ordered debris of 727! Fifteenth street. Mr. Sachs’ $70,000 brain child will occupy three floors: A subterranean “Mahogany Room,” utilizing the genuine hand-carved mahogany fixtures bequeathed Del Rio by its predecessor; the main floor lounge which will be plastered with mirrors and striped wallpaper, and the balcony, S-shaped, secluded | and in full view of the bandstand. Dancing, obviously, is permissible | | at both spots. Victory Room will be able to ac- | count for 500 of the local population; Del Rio, in the vicinity of 800, all floors considered. To use an old Phoenician phrase, ‘Washington’s night club banner soars closer to the heights! * ¥ x Don Carper, who tantalizes danc- ers at the Roger Smith Hotel’'s Cafe Caprice with his instrumental quar- tet, also composes. He has hauled from his back files and renovated a tune which he penned a few years back. It is entitled “Until My Love Returns.” It is good. Cafe Capric- closos have been demanding it for weeks, so he has finally had the plece published and unofficially in- dorsed by Maestro Freddy Martin, of the Tschaikowsky Piano Concerto No. 1 Martins. Don not only is responsible for the music, but much. of the lyrics, the rest shared by Diane Carrol. We would advise listening for it over your nearest radio. ek In the composition vein, Copaca- bana’s dimunitive Johnny Velasquez ,ls an old hand at whipping out & tune. Cuban, of course. Johnny may be seen perfodically during band intermission bent over his plano, pencil in hand, gnawing at cheeks over scme mnew inspiration that may have kissed his brow dur- | ing the day.

He may slink into the Cosmos Room and hiss a request to “The World Is in My Arms” he may crop up at the Trolka asking for “Apil in Paris” or “Can’t We Be Friends” (no significance in the Iatter title). Whatever the entreaty, however, he is appeased. That is, if the band can dig deep enough into its plle of scores, and if it can remem- ber those certain shades that made the playing of the piece a thrill to the non-jitterbug soul. Invariably, however, the man’s tastes are congenial not only to blndm n but to a public fed up with output that is currently | W md 44/100 per cent mediocre. %y Maj.

The effect of the double-belled horn is nice, furthermore, in a dance ar- rangement. Ray Richardson of Milt Davis’ Rainbow Room band has at last established friendly relations with Richmond birth certificate authori- ties.” In short, the United States recognizes Mr. Richardscn as one of its citizens and will probably be welcoming the saxophonist into its favorite Air Corps before many-days have elapsed.
