Rosew? tight groups here, and an in- ii frequent visitor might feel like the r victim of an ocular rape upon entering, as a new face often draws T the attention of the regulars. ti In fact a sign by the door greets o the visitor with the words "sn drink up. tell me your story, I'll sing you c my song and we'll have one more, p Isn't that what friends are for?" b Prices are also popular at the w Opus, although Busch at 45 cents and Bud at 50 cents are the only t< two selections, with draft set at 35 w cents. And while the Opus has no d membership costs, one almost di feels as if he were intruding into a tv private club upon making an en- ei trance. bi Before leaving the premises, one is confronted with a huge, flag- fl sized face of Barry Goldwater on vv the wall which bids Opus patrons ir good-night. Unfortunately, it could s cause the unprepared customer to r< lose a good buzz. b a Twilite Lounge 0' After our quiet repose at the Opus, we next journeyed down the s, street to the new Twilite Lounge. e] The Twilite has been remodeled, making it a much more appealing fr niteclub than it was. The entrance is situated at the C( back of the old building. The in- ?c terior wood paneling gives the bar tc a fresh smell. On entering, one is n< immediately overwhelmed by the crowd surrounding the dance floor. An oblong bar serving liquor and fc beer occupies the center of the bar, nj and a eameroom is in thp rpar nf the facility. st Without a doubt, the main at- tfc traction of the Twilite is the great sc numbers of singles visiting the bar, especially single females. Every bar has single males in large quantities, but the niteclub that boasts substantial amounts of tli unattached women is a rarity L ? WN WW..

The Twilite is one of those arities. With as large a crowd as the 'wilite attracts, a decent venilation system is a necessity. On ne of our visits, part of the venlation system broke down.
