YOUNG HEIR FROM BOSTON
Makes Good in Movies
On Headwaiter Experience
Hollywood, Eept. 29 (US) Peter Mamakos, 29-year-old heir
in o Nsui Fnclnnri restaurant fortune, said todav he's making cood
. in the movies because he picked up all the acting gimmicks as his
ather's headwaiter.
And what he learned while bowing people to their tables will
ii keep him in Hollywood even-
I longer than it takes you to catch
' a waiter's eye on the Sunset
? "strip."
"It's easy after you ve been in
the eaterie business," Mamakos
says. "Any good maitre-de has
to be a smooth combination of
Ronald Coleman, Humphrey Bo
gart, and Tyrone Power.
he's been in eight movies since.
"Memorizing lines is easy," he
says. "As a maitre-de you have
a far longer script, Jrirst, you
have to know the menus by

wood directors, either. He's
handled too many chefs and
waiters in his day.
Mamakos senior's tried luring
his son home with everything
from a $50,000 Job to a $250,000
nightclub of his own. He bom
barded him with phone calls,
wires and letters and finally
dispatched one of his executives
out here with orders to bring the
young scamp home where he be
longed.
"It was really funny," Peter
said. "Pop's traunt officer spent
a day on the set and wound up
with a waiver from the guild
and a job as a sailor in 'Cargo
to canton. 2 He was all for stay
ing but he knew pop'd fire
him."
Civil Service '
Ruling Made
Under Salem civil service
rules from now on policemen
and firemen must serve at least
a year in any grade before be
ing advanced by examination
to the next grade. The rule was
adopted at a meeting of the
civil service commission Wednesday.
The cases of Glen A. Bowman
and Leland D. Weaver were
mentioned. Both recently qual
ified for police captains al
though they had not served in
the grade of sergeant. The rul
ing was made by way of clarifi
cation. The civil service status of
police radio operators was dis
cussed. City Attorney Chris J.
Kowitz has ruled that police of
ficers assigned to radio duty
cannot be deprived of civil
service rating, but that whether
they are to be classified under
a separate civil service grade is
for the city council to decide.
The commission voted to call
a civil service examination for
firemen the latter part of Octo
ber to replenish the eligibility
list. Examinations will be held
it was derided, for firemen, cap
tains and first aid captains The
only present vacancy is first aid
captain.
"And I was a good one. Had
to be or pop would've fired
me."
"Pop" Is John Mamakos, head
of the Pilgrim restaurants in
Boston and New England, and
he's not happy about his son
walking out on the family busi
ness. Seven months ago he sent Ma
makos, Jr., out here to scout lo
cations for a California chain.
Only Junior got so bedazzled by
Hollywood he scouted himself a
job In the movies instead.
And that headwaiter training
must be on the level. Because
syncracies of all your customers.
'You have to make em think
you like 'em, whether you do or
not. That's where you really get
your acting training.
"You have to remember who's
married to whom and then ask
how the children are ... if there
are any. Heaven help you if you
get mixed up on those two!
"And maybe I shouldn't say
this, but I feel right at home in
Hollywood. A hot kitchen and a
hot sound stage are alike
you're surrounded by hams in
both."
Mamakos says he's not both

Los Angeles, (U.B Dr. Clark

WAS THE AD WRITER SPOTTED AT LAST WEEKS OPEN HOUSE?
"Beautiful to Behold"
As one lady remarked as she sipped her delicious Empress Coffee and dunked her Downy
Flake Donut with just the right finesse of her delicate little finger, "I do declare, I know I've
seen everything now! Look over there, see that feller with the big chest? Bet he's the head'a
the dunkers club. Didja ever see anything so beautiful just look! His coffee cup settin on that
shelf, both hands fulla donuts, dunkin with first one hand and then with the other and drinkin
his Empress Coffee with out puttin his eye out." "Whatcha mean, put his eye out? Empress
Coffee is a mighty good coffee." "Oh yeah the coffee's good but look at the handle of that
spoon stickin outa the cup he's usin and look at im he's drunk to cups already and hasent
knocked an eye out yet." "Oh ye I see im". But isnt it beautiful." "Good grief you think he's
doin that purty like?" "Oh no, I mean isn't the cheese case he's leanin on the most beautiful
sight. Its a snack grabers dream with so many varieties. Just look, you can get most any kind
of chees youve ever heard of. Wonder why ther ad writer never mentions the beauty and ease of
selection at that display. You know what, I betcha that feller with the spoon in his coffee cup
is their ad writer!"
