HOTEL HOLLYWOOD Blank's Dress Suit_ How Did He Get It, Where and When? — Maybe a Waiter Knows Abe Blank dropped in town Tuesday. He mixed in with Clara Kimball Young, Harry Garson and Harry Reichenbach and a big party Election night. Incidentally they went to the Sixty Club, a very exclusive resort where dress clothes are part of the order of the night. Blank was the only one in the party minus evening dress. So the party could not be seated. Finally, to save the party from going elsewhere Blank asked to be excused for a few moments, promising to return. Twenty minutes later he did. He had on full evening dress. Where he got the clothes, the studs, the shirt, everything, was a mystery. He refused to explain. Finally some of the crowd suggested going elsewhere and "making a night of it." Blank demurred. He said he couldn't stay out later than six o'clock. He had a friend, a waiter, he said, who had to report for duty at that hour. Then the crowd was on to where he had secured the fine clothes. Smith Back from Africa J. C. Smith is at the Claridge hotel having returned from a trip to Senegal, Africa, where he secured a considerable amount of film. Children Matinees New Idea Now Being Worked — No Competition With Theaters Planned The Children's Matinee Asso. Inc., with offices at 1366 St. Nicholas Ave., has completed its organization and plans for the presentation of children matinees at least once a week. The organization will use pictures designated as proper ones for children to see which are selected by the National Board of Review and the National Juvenile M. P. League. It is stated that no competition with regular theaters is planned and that theaters that are to be rented for one day will be leased at a reasonable figure. Where it is impossible to secure theaters, halls and auditoriums will be used for the showings. The plan calls for a junior and senior program, depending upon the age of the child. An educational campaign is now under way to interest school principals and teachers in the idea and to secure speakers to present the plan to parents' organizations and welfare clubs. The association says it has allied and working with it the following organizations: Playground Recreation Asso. of America, National M. P. League, National Kindergarten Asso., National Board of Review, Educational Alliance, Community Service, Humanitarian Club, Federation of Child Study, Ethical Society, International Church Film Corp., Salvation Army, Children's Court, Jewish Big Brothers, Girls' Scout Asso., and Board of Education.
