The crowd was large, the entrance fee fifty-five cents, the drinks not too expensive, and the music excellent when the big names--Max Kaminsky, Al Morgan, and Joe Jones--were at work. The sponsors hope to attract a celebrity of Kaminsky's rank each week, in which case their drawing power around Boston, perhaps the most jazz-conscious city in the country, will be assured...
