Written on back: " Fun and entertainment galore will await the thousands of army men and officers who will come into Chinatown this Saturday evening, Oct. 4, where a colorful 'Chinatown Night' program is being planned for them by the Chinese Six Companies. Shown here are some of the Chinese night club stars who will sing and dance for the soldier boys. From left to right they are: Kim Wong and Alice Shew of the Chinese Skyroom, Mary Mammon of the Lion's Den, and Minnie Yuke of Forbidden City. All these stars are donating their acts for the S. F. Defense Pageant 'Chinatown Night.'.
