Faith Bacon (Continued from pAge 1) tfty and onerdrlnkerSr Rents .are_ lower on the left bank and the~ overhead le less, but tO'isell a bottle of champagne in Montparnasse would *l)e like a riot calL For the first part of the winter 'La Bolte a Mateloto* from Cannes^ run by Leon Volterra, was the rage. Opened by a deadhead bouse of press and theatrloal folk, the place soon caught on and did four months of swell business, petering away In the end to strong weekends and empty weekdays. Although sched- uled to reopen In the fall. It Is be- lieved the. owners will change . the name and try . to start a new iilea. Coming late, the old redecorated Florida, noV^ known as the 'Mont- martre,' swept everything before it in the closing months of the season. With Albert, from the Champs flysees, to greet, and with the so- ciety crowd of last year's 'Monsetgr neur's' behind the. counter, place was a sedsatlon from the start with the best music In town. Also scheduled to. reopen in the. fall, but doubtful if the same appeal can continue with the average life of a Paris night club not more than four months. Bricktop cleaned, up for three months after her opening In No- vember. Then things petered off and one good night a week satisfied her as' it did Chez Florence^ Russes Bshavior The Russlah places with all their little gyps, taxi tricks aiid over- charging, ; felt the depression, too. The Sheherezade still does the best business but to a different'.crowd. Zaidce Jalckigon lias Harlem im- planted .there and champagne Is difficult to sell even at lower prices. Good percentages taken oil. for so- ciety, theatrical and press people Just for attendance. Chez Lisa Mouranova got some late season trade and Norma Tal- Riadge boosted it by going every night. Bo.'^phere, with Charpinl, al.?o had nice in-between trade while Vesbeck and (Casanova bare- ly held their own and are now closed. The Russian dives have got to give more than the money's worth or people wlU remember tho years of gypping. Le Boeuf sur le Toit has taken on press agents and thrown brawls for everyone from Texas Guinan to visiting artists. But no amount of flareup can bring more than th«i same two dozen barflies and a dozen tables of people on week nights. Restaurant abandoned. Ditto the downstairs cabareti Le Grand Ecart' name changed to 'the- .Speakeasy,' and business only so-so. 'Les^En(ant^ .Terrlbles* changed to ^'Z-54' lasted a fort- night, in the George V section, "Le Chat qui pelote' lasted eight days. Around the Palais Royal a few smaller places kept going for two or three months but nothing special there. The Lido held up, the Chanips Blysees and after falling off late in the winter came back a little with summer. Not up to old times, how- ever.' ■ ■ ■■ Joe Zelii has had a terrible year and has suiik plenty in an attempt to bring people back. It's now a French idea cabaret with most Americans hanging arouiid the bar. All the rest of the evening places mean absolutely nothing. Finishing up Joints like 'The Melr ody Club* and the 'Rumba' (once 'Music Box') are oke for that small crowd that stays out till 8 or i9 o'clock In the morning. Out In Passy the attempt to start some- thing with the Miami faded after a couple of weeks of class buslr ness.. You can't turn around without finding half a dozen night places Oh the left bank. Principal money for. the. season has- gone to Xee Clochards' with Lucienne Boyer, Di- nah's and 'La Boule Blanche,' eaeb with a particular clientele. Boyer's Career Boyer, down In a cellar sang hec. ^ay to ma.ny hundreds of thou- sands of francs at 30 francs a. drink (11.20). She kept that price with no gypping. Not a great turn- over but capable of 600 of these drinks or more a night, and she doubles. Dinah wetit to <L'Ange Bleii' and packed them In. Tbea ° she went French at'her own plaoe and started losing foreigners and tried to get them back by going .t« Montmartre at the Abbaye. Now she is nowhere. La Boule Blanche became the early evening rumba centre of the left bank and all Paris flocked to see the blacks get In a good wiggle before midnight. Lots of other 'begulne' and rumba joints oh the left bank but none took. £<arly In the year 'Le Train Bleu' cleaned up but died after two months. 'La Crolz de Sud,' In anotbsr basement, surprised everyone br holding, up 14 months before An^ nounclng a summer closing. Uair reopen and has developed s ce^ tain trade l>y changing entertain ment monthly. Other places are Just doing fair In this section and not known to Americans. . 'L'Aero- port' Is latest to open In Mont- parnasse n^t door to the closed 'Patte Blanche.' Business Is falir but mostly . coming from oimn drinkers at. the bar. 'La Petite Chaise,' 'Le Bateaa Ivre,' and 'Les Cloches' did noth- ing. The night places in the Latin Quarter are filso dead with "Lee Noct&mbuIeS* occasionally coming, through. There, are a dozen new ones in Montparnasse but th^ close Quickly and reopen under new names. . Biggest tragedy of the year was the Bagdad oh the right bank. ▲ big bankroll and plenty of adver- tising couldn't make It last six weeks. Except for such as the Urn, Fetiche,' 'La Petite Chaumlere' and 'Chez Ton Ton,' all pansy Joints, are closed. And along with them , the markets are dead. Night club- bers haye to be satisfied with one or two smart places at a time this year. BALTON'S DATE Columbu^, Aug. 8. Bill DHlton, local favorite son, .Is going back to local theatre work after several months of broadcast- ing. Former featured organist. at Loew's Ohio theatre . last week .signed to play at Neth's Grand, sole downtown indie house, beginning In; September, Dalton has been broadcasting over WAIU.
