ttd about Detroit's newest eon-
riff:10°n for the epicurean's de-
Inffit. I forgot to tell you it's the
new Wedgewood Room out E.
Jefferson (not too far out) that
I'm talking about. . . It's operated
be our old pal Henry "Mutt" Are-
no.,ity. Can't be had then, can it?
()pi n Sundays, too. Better make
reservation.

What is behind the "Double
Doer"? The Detroit Civic Players,
Detroit'4 own local group, tell you
in the spine chilling mystery mel-
odrama "Double Door," on Friday
evening, March 1, at the Music
Hall. This is the fourth offering
of the Civic Players this -season.

Can't get a night out of the
house? Tied down to the kiddies
who are too young to be left
:dare? Don't be fooltsh -- just
all the Proxy Parents Assn. . .
They have trained "parents" who
take care of the kiddies just like
you would yourself. Try it once
and I'm sure you'll never com-
plain about never getting out.

A comedy riot from start to fin-
ish is the most vivid description
we can offer of Harry Jarkey, the
"jumping jack" master of ceremo.
les, now in his second headlining
week, by popular demand, at Club
509. Among his explosively funny
maneuvers is his impersonation of
the Indianapolis Auto Classic. Co-
featured in the current new sup-
porting show are Belva White, the
song and piano bombshell (25th
week ), and The Lovetts in "In-
strumentalism," an offering of
mystery, music, mirth and science,
recognized as the most-talked-ot
'musical attraction Atf our time.
Rounding,out the entertainment
are the Murillo Brothers, amazing
hand-balancers; Johnny Hullo, the
singing favorite; the JitterbUgs
and the 509 Adorables. Lee Wal-
ters and his orchestra are the
music makers.

'S
Ti quite obvious why . Club t io,
out towards Pontiac, has beco
such a popular rendezvous with
Detroit and surrounding territory
per miters." . . Good food, plus
danceable music, plus the sort of
liqueurs that add zest to one's
palate, topped with an atmosphere
of easy conviviality, adequately
explains such a status. . . Earl
Olive, your host, is a "first name"
standing with most of the guests
. . stakes you feel right at home
and brightens the club with his
"away down to earth" personal-
ity that's more than just pleasing.

Sorry, sorry, sorry, I said last
week that all day and every day
one could enjoy the good kosher
cooking at Three Roses. Did I get
bawled out by many of my read.
erg? On Tuesday, Three Roses
Grill is closed . . also sorry about
misprint 'bout Devlin's where I
said open until 12:30 a.m. instead
of 2:30 a.m. 'Tis the kitchen that
closes at an earlier in the evening
hour. . . Papa Joe's still goes un-
til. 8 a.m. every morn. . . Jo Jo's
'til 4 a.m., Goldberg's 'til 4 a.m.

Mon., Thurs. and there's good
measure hours Fri. and St. 5 'til
4 a.m. Sun., 1 p.m. to 1 a.m. . .
Bill Miller closes at 6 p.m. but
Bill says what's worth getting is
worth waiting for, so if you miss
a dinner one night just double up
next day. . . And believe nte Bill
Miller's ( brother Harry is just
back from the service and with
him now) food is worth getting.

Luncheon at the Rio Grande
Cafe from 11 a.m. 'til 3 p.m. is
an event when most of the Water
Board and County Bldgs. (not say-
ing a word about Sam's Cut Rate
personnel "Society") gather for
their mid-day nourishment. . . Of
course, the evening, too, has be-
come quite the meeting place for
those seeking a few hours of re-
laxation and fun. 'Tis not unusual
to see a group come in for an
early dinner and remain for the
rest of the evening, "imbibing" in
liquid refreshments and "inhal-
ing" the friendly atmosphere. . .
With Jimmy Bouchard at the No-
vachord and Max Spiegelman as
your host, that's quite understand-
able.

Coming March 20 to the Cinema •
T ater, M.G.M.'s "The last

a finished product worth the trou-
ble and money it took to film it.
. . Don't miss it. It's one of the
most stirring... films of the war.
And currently you'll see the De-
troit premiere of the first new
Italian musical film to arrive in
this country since the liberation
of Italy "Amara, Alfredo," - -
a modern love story based and
woven around Giuseppe Verdi's
world famous opera, "La Travia-

And talking about Tom Cotter's,
did you take advantage of the
terrific clearance sale he had? . .
What bargains I picked up
There's not a better men's haber-
dashery story in town, nor a
greater guy than Tom (and I have
no designs on him — he has a
very charming spouse and three
lovely daughters — twins, too).

be featured in a farce comedy
which will be built and start out
of Detroit, called "Please Marry
Me." It's all about the American-
horn gal who married titles and
now it's vice versa and the Eng-
lish gals are learning all about
men from Nan. (I'll bet she can
tell a few tales, too, eh ?) 'Twill
be produced by Hoary Adrian,
who staged the $300,000 musical,
"A Girl from Nantucket." Here's
good luck with this one, boy. . .
Coming in as an extra added at-
traction is Joe Sanders, "The
Ole Left Hander," and his orches-
tra. Topflight attractions in the
supporting line-up will include the
Callahan Sisters, America's num-
ber one tap team, and the Dorothy
Byton Dancers. - Special Note:
I don't know why in blazes I don't
get the boss to sell Lee 'n' Eddie's
the paper . . unless, perhaps, be-
cause my Artie (such a proud
mom) is going in there with his
own band May 10 or maybe soon-
er. Put a ring around that date
and watch for Artie Fields and
his orchestra.

Nan Blakstone s h e appeared
for 31 consecu-

"Cincy" when she of course wow-

at Lee 'n' Eddie's (last night),
where she'll share honors with the
headliner Willie Shore. . . Shore,
the youthful and inimitable com-
edy star, who gave up a budding
career to carry his mirth to the
fighting men in far-reaching the-
atres of war during the recent
conflict, and returned to capture
greater civilian acclaim than ever
before, is holding over, by tre-
mendous popular demand, in the
new show. He is smashing at-
tendance records. . . From far
and wide, including visiting celeb-
rities, talent scouts enroute from
coast to coast, "ten percenters" on
the way to Chicago or where you
will be stopping over to catch the
"kid." . . There I must finish tell-

about our Willie — and that's
not because of that half a grand,
