In Jackson, Miss., the Belmont Restaurant, long a favorite downtown luncheon spot for state officials, lawyers and businessmen, has become the Belmont Club Inc., boasts an electrically operated door, a membership committee-and the same old menu. Maylie's Restaurant, for 90 years a noontime hangout for New Orleans judges, lawyers and city hall officials, now styles itself Maylie's Club Restaurant, claims 3,000 members, a $5 membership fee, and a policy of never asking anyone to show his membership card-unless he happens to be a Negro...

He had cut a disk with the Boston Pops in Symphony Hall, so this time it was Conductor Arthur Fiedler, 69, guesting it high on the revolving stage of Hirt's Bourbon Street hangout.
