CONGRATS . . . to Jay
Mellin . . . on his 40th birth-
day . . . time to "hang up his
skates" which Jay is doing
after almost 30 years playing
hockey . . . He was one of the
first Jewish boys hereabouts
to compete on the ice as
goalie for the Shamrocks in
Detroit's pee wee hockey
league years back . . . Also to
Jay's niece, Lauren Mellin .. .
on her sweet 16 birthday .. .
Jay, and Lauren's dad Marty,
are the sons of Spike and Har-
riette Mellin.
NO DISPUTE . . . no mat-
ter who tries to emulate him,
Henny Youngman is still king
of the one-liners.
But he does much more
than one liners like, "Take my
wife, please" or "I take my
wife everywhere, but she
always finds her way home"
or the panhandler who said to
him, "I haven't eaten in two
days" and Henny saying,
"Force yourself" or "George
Burns is so old when - he
orders a three-minute egg, he
pays up front."
A number of years ago
when Henny was here
visiting his Uncle Max
Chetkin, he stayed at the
Detroit-Leland Hotel where I
spent some time with him.
Even using the phone to call
everywhere in the world,
Henny was funny.
"A man had nine children
and his wife told him to get a
vasectomy. So he got it done
at Sears. Now, whenever he
makes love, the garage door
opens."
A police siren shrills out-
side . . . "I'll be right down!"
he shouts . . . "Do you know
that things are so bad the
Mafia laid off 10 percent of
their hit men?"
"I just got back from a
pleasure trip. Took my
mother-in-law to the airport."
One of Henny Younguian's
favorites is not a one-liner .. .
about the late Leo Steiner,
former owner of the Carnegie
Deli in New York . . . "Leo
didn't like Arabs. He put a
sign in the window, `No Arabs
Allowed,' and told his em-
ployees to charge any Arabs
who do come in double. An
Arab walks in, orders a sand-
wich for $6; he charges him
$12. Next day, the Arab walks
in and orders 10 sandwiches.
`Charge him $20 apiece!' says

Leo. The Arab pays. Now he
has a party for a hundred.
`$25 per!' He pays it. Next
day, Leo puts a sign in the
window, 'No Jews Allowed.' "
MARCH IS Tamaroff
Buick's 22nd anniversary .. .
and another year to celebrate
with its annual Green Tag
Sale that started 21 years ago
. . . one year after Mary
Tamaroff opened his Buick
dealership on Telegraph
south of 12 Mile Road.
Number 21 this year that
begins Monday, will take in
all his operations . . . Buick,
Honda, Nissan, Isuzu, Dodge
on 12 Mile and Acura on
Gratiot.
The showrooms will be
green again . . . tags, flags,
etc. . . . even the grass in front
. . . If it snows, who knows .. .
with Marv's seeming pipeline
to powers that be, the snow
even might be green, too!
HERE'S SOME exciting
news on the restaurant scene
. . . You know that former Vic-
toria Station train setup on
Northwestern Highway be-
tween Telegraph and 12 Mile
(also Bonkers for a short
while)? . . . It's been vacant
for some time and folks have
always been wondering what
would ever take over the
valuable site.
Well, the official word is out
. . . Mike Ilitch, of Little
Caesars and America's Pizza
Cafe, and Jimmy Schmidt
will put up a Cocina del Sol
full-service restaurant there
. . . serving Southwestern fare
. . . as another Little Caesar
Enterprises operation . . .
Mike and Jimmy have Tres
Vite together in the Fox
Theatre Building.
WHEN HUSBAND Sam
Krause came home from work
and found the house a com-
plete wreck, he asked wife
Lois what happened . . .
"You're always wondering
what I do all day," she said.
"Well, here it is — I didn't do
it."
