Bartender Soars
Among “Guest Stars”
NEW YORK, i/P)—“Guest stars”
are an old custom in the night
club field, but the practice was
carried to an extreme here when
Stanley Scott, head bartender at
one of the swanky Manhattan ho
tels, was invited to be “guest bar
man” at the opening of a new
cocktail lounge in Berrpuda.
Scott, who is vice president of
the International Bart e n d e r s
League, hopped an airliner, r^ade
a one-night stand, and returned to
his New York post with the loss
of only one working day.
There’s an applicant here who
said he used to make his living by
sticking his right arm into a lion’s
mouth.
What’s his name?
Lefty!
Scotland Jolts
Labor Government
LONDON, (/P)—Scottish voters
handed Britain’s ruling Labor
party another jolting setback in
municipal elections yesterday.
With results nearly complete,
the Luborites had dropped a net of
65 seats, losing 77 and winning 12
new seats.
They lost control of five coun
cils to their opponents, barely
clung to industrial Glasgow and
won the upper hand in two small
cities—Muselburgh and Selkirk.
The results continued, in a less
drastic way, the trend away from
Socialism markedly demonstrated
by a Conservative landslide in last
week-end’s English and Welsh bal
loting for borough councilmen.
Election campaigning in Scot
land was less exciting than south
of the border, reaching its peak in
Glasgow.
There the Laborites lost three
seats but clung to a two-vote ma
jority among the 114 elected coun
cilmen.
As in the English and Welsh lo
cal elections, only one-third of the
seats were at stake.
