26 DDD Oakland Tribune, Thursday, May 28, 1953 to give a hang about business, i Tii.l r- it I oina ctced a Eve Nelson was on the first' tew days of a vacation from the Sea Wolf lounge these days Man about town and bon vi-vant, Tony DeBiasi, never seems or do you remember her as Angelina of the Chef Cardini ihow? Tonight the big night at Orv Comstock's Open House. Plenty of eats (on Orv) and a lot of folks you "ain't seen in years" renewing fellowships that date back to Orville's Oakland kindergarten days through St Mary's College. The party continues again tomorrow night in case you can't "put a shingle" on, the Open Rouse tonight So there you are trapped without an excuse for not showing up. There are three Evelyns that I know of along the cocktail trail; tfo one blonde, one brunette are still at Sea Wolf. The one at Open House is a redhead.

That's how you tell them apart; Orinda Willowi chores, down Hollywood Way, when something very unfortunate hap hallway of the Danville Hotel has quite a recent history. Rus Glenn waited eight months and saved $65 by just mentioning the deal to Jim Rooney of Helnick's. A mixed up story. Russ, you tell it Eric Johnson the Bertola huckster is going fishing this holiday week-end. Was enrolled for the big skiing shindig up Sonora Pass.

Too much snow canceled. Ever hear of such a thing in June? Any moment now we can expect a new little mouth to feed at Lucca's and I have a fiver that says the Fiatarones can expect a Topp's lounge (105th-E. 14th) is more like a private club than any bistro in that end of town. Everybody knows everybody type spot. viLsi.

i-a Rto it, coj lias tail, around a lot. And yet he gets most of the dinner and dance business in the city. Just seems to come on a natural plus the lure of a truly great orchestra led by Larry Cappelli. The view can be called magnificent, too. WAITER CUM LAUDE One of the best waiters in these parts Hans Shultr quits the Tunnel Inn in another few weeks.

He is about to finish U.C. Will be a civil engineer. Personally, I think he should reconsider and open his own restaurant. You'd swear he was a product of the Swiss hotel schools, the way he caters and serves at Jay Bedsworth's exclusive rendezvous. That antique coat tree in the pened.

She was walking out of! an automatic elevator; the door shut, caught her and she fell to the floor and cracked something in her spine. She is in the hospital Concord- Doctor says it will take many months to get her back to normal again. I'll wager she finds a way to get! back in action at the Willows'' At door, greeting customers, before too long. If I know Eve! Tve heard it a hundred times: -What is the Villa de la Paix business so fast at the Net, I look to see him push out a wall soon and add another room. You can't believe the lunch crowds until you see them.

Dinner, too. The Net does have outstanding chefs. I wonder sometimes, if their stuffed turbot might not be one of the seafood classics of the nation! The martinis at Showboat are 35 parts gin to one part vermouth. Is that dry enough for you? If not. Lew Bohnne is thinking of vaporizing gin with a whiff of vermouth and compressing it in an oxygen tank; served with a mask, etc Seriously he's working on the idea mostly for laughs, I guess.

Frank Wells came up at Club Martini with what I trust will be the last bop gag of this generation: 'Dig that crazy fox hole." Reerring to the digging going on in the new parking garage kitty corner to the Tribune. South Pacific is romping out some mighty high style jazz for restless ears and nervous feet I doubt if you can find better, look where you may in local jive haunts. The Sharps hold the spotlight with Wild Roy Felts saxing up things a bit Claude Maxwell and Ruth Doll vie for vocal hands. Strictly for the gone set strictly. PICTURES ATTRACT Mike Lynn is creating a mild tidal wave of requests for pictures of industrial plants to go in the frame out front at Pland's Broadway restaurant Judson Steel is the current pic; a peach of a photo by the Hainlin Studio.

The crowd came rolling in and by midnight, nothing but a big pile of bones was left The three Combs brothers, Dick, Reed and George, can take a big unison bow for the decor job they pulled with no outside help.

Did it all themselves including the work. I thought the Showboat would sink into the Estuary last Monday night. So many showed up for the Max Baer broadcast Jack Dempsey arrived as promised attract the eclat charge account crowd; the expense account aristocracy. And yet his prjees are about level with ordinary places. But if you want to "run up the check" and make a "big impression" San has ways of making that possible; little items like flaming desserts, table-mixed salads, special steak sauces and stuff like that there.
