"Pelican" to Replace Tower on Friday According to all reports, the Pelican, a new night club and restaurant to be opened on the eighth floor of the Cathay Hotel, should be one of Shanghai's most popular night spots during the summer. Friday is ihe date set for the opening, so that patrons of the Tower, which closes on Thursday, will find Mr. A. Gottlieb acting as manager of the new club, The two G Men, Geza and Gino, with Boris Bocharoff as drummer and Ernest Schlittner, violinist, will entertain nightly and these musicians with the aid of Raya Bershadsky, soprano, will undoubtedly make the Pelican as popular as its winter predecessor, the Tower. The night Club will fake up about one third of the space now occupied by the ballroom and will connect with the eighth floor lounge and grill room all of which are air-conditioned. The decorations, done in cool marine colours, were made by Schiff, and feverish Shanghailanders will undoubtedly find the cool interior of the new club a pleasant relief during the coming summer months,
