He has a wooden leg. It's old fashioned and out of whack.

Causes Frank a lot of discomfort But being a family man, he hardly has enough to do much about it when the bills are paid, that is. So the boys put a jar on the bar. Everyone tosses in a penny, a nickel or a dime. In another two weeks or so, the jar will contain enough to bur the very latest in artificial legs. for Frank.

And frankly, that's pretty nice. The "Poor Man's Bob Hope" Thursday night.

Perfectionism to the most min-tite detail is exhibited all the way through this jewel-box restaurant. A superb blending of rustic wood, brilliant flowers, stonework, fixtures and the last-word in comfortable seating, accents your first impression.

He has a superior understanding of a hungry public. He knows how to handle any touchy emergency that is bound to arise in- even the best of places. Jay Flagg has expressed a long-time dream in the creation of a restaurant that would make blase Beverly Hills rare up and take notice.

As you doubtless know, he owns Pland's at the corner of MacArthur and Broadway. I'm sure Mrs. Flagg had a great deal to do with the exquisite architectural conceptions, especially the flower plantings which you'll find rivaling Garden Show exhibits. As you can see Flagg's is an important addition to our Dining Life. You'll want to know about the prices.

All I can say is: they're much lower than an atmosphere like this calls for. In fact they are right in line with most of the menus in better places, the area over. Acapulco is undergoing a complete interior face lift. Freddie Mottle was in Palm Springs a few weeksffgo. He fell in love with a place known as The Doll House.

In fact, the Doll House is the most important fun spot in the desert resort Mecca. "What Tunnel Strip needs is a place just like this!" said Mr. HOUR" Same fine quality foods for 25 years "Ye, it't true tor 25 years, the same wonderful chef same gracious service same home atmosphere many of the same customers!" How many restaurants can say that? Five private dining rooms for your special parties each decorated in keeping with the Cock o' Walk theme. an intimate restaurant that surpasses the Palm Springs Doll House. You can enjoy the privacy of little cabanas and dance and enjoy the songs of Russ Arno and the pianoings of a very famous girl keyboard star, etc.

March 17 is a day always celebrated heavily in the fun spots. Being as Irish as you can get pat O'Brien expects the shamrock clan to come, en masse, to El Nido Rancho. The decorations will be as" elaborate as the El Nido Christmas trimmings. The smorgasbord will refect the spirit of the Irish and plenty of rare corned beef and cabbage will be yours for the trouble of dipping in. These events add spice to living.

Don't miss this one. Next Thursday I'll give you rundown on all the other places staging St. Patrick's parties. About the most pack jammed spot in San Francisco is the Cable Car Village on California Street, a few blocks this side of Van Ness Avenue. The greatest Afro-Cuban orchestra in America beats out a rhythm that sets your primitive instincts aflame, if you permit yourself to go in for abandonments of this sort.
