...Dallas, Marvin Ward of Olympia, and Charley Yates of Atlanta. Some had played on Scottish links before and some had not. But all nine, including non-playing Captain Ouimet. tuned up for the international matches by competing-along with 200 others from all over the world-in the 52nd annual British Amateur championship, played last week on the Seaside links at Troon...
Director of the Cometa Art Gallery in Rome, which gives exhibitions and encouragement to the pure artists of Italy, the Countess not long ago acquired second floor rooms on 52nd Street and the patronage of the Italian Ambassador, Mrs. James Roosevelt, Mrs. Vincent Astor, Lucrezia Bori and a host of other socialites for a second Cometa gallery in Manhattan.

...outstanding 52nd Street characters appear in 52nd Street. Scottish Crooner Ella Logan went to Hollywood last year from Leon & Eddie's, a loud, vulgar hot-spot specializing in bawdy songs. Cadaverous, fast-cracking Jack White, rowdy Roscius of 52nd Street's 18 Club, is the film's most authentic touch, although it makes meagre use of his extraordinary repertory. At home in his hurly-burly 18 Club, Comic White welcomes visiting Babbitts with orchestral fanfares and vanishing birthday cakes, dons cop's garb to unsnarl traffic jams around the comfort stations, fishes for hecklers, whom...
