Reservations Already Are Being Made for Tables on Election Night.

The autumn edition of the Golden Glades Ice Skating Revue and musical comedy, "Around the Town," continues to attract many to Thomas Healy's Golden Glades Roof, Broadway and Sixty-sixth street, twice nightly. The revue is a combination of ice ballets, musical comedy and other features.

Mr. Healy's Balconades ballroom, on the floor below the Glades, will reopen to-night. During the summer the ballroom has undergone many changes. Blue and gold are the motifs of the new decorative scheme.

Reservations are already pouring in upon the Waldorf-Astoria, McAlpin Annex and Claridge for tables on election night.

Roy Carruthers, managing director of the Waldorf-Astoria, has arranged for direct wires to receive election returns, and stereopticons will flash the latest news to the several dining rooms on screens. Between dances in the South Cafe the lights will be dimmed and the returns thrown on a screen.

Whether the announcement of "no cover" charge is responsible is not certain, but James Churchill is sure that with the large seating capacity of his restaurant over 300 diners were unable to obtain tables last Saturday evening.

The Hotel Plaza Annex, next door to the Hotel Plaza, is offering a limited number of three room bachelor apartments, furnished and unfurnished.

The Mayor's Committee for Entertaining Distinguished Visitors gave a dinner in the ballroom of the Waldorf-Astoria last night to the victorious American athletes who have returned from Antwerp. Duke Kahanamoku, champion swimmer, with his twenty-one swimming teammates, who are at the hotel, remain in town for the dinner.

Afternoon teas in the Indian grill room of the Hotel Astor, since the opening last Thursday, were never more popular, and parties of four from twelve till each place day. An orchestra of eight has been engaged and many new dance selections have proven very popular. Leo Wirth, who has been at the Astor several years, is again in charge of the Indian grill. Special after theater suppers are now popular in this room nightly. The dancing continues until 1 o'clock.
