("SIDECAR" SIDEBAR:  I had to request this microfilm twice before I got it--about three hours later.  Then, the library closed.  I'll be out of NYC, so I can't immediately copy the entries.  However, it appears to antedate "Sidecar."  John Mariani's ENCYCLOPEDIA OF AMERICAN FOOD AND DRINK has: "The bar's owner, Harry MacElhone, claimed the drink was concocted in 1931 for a customer who always arrived in a motocycle sidecar.  But the sidecar appears in several places in Carl Van Vechten's 1931 short story collection, _Parties_."  Sidecar supposedly was invented during WWI--ed.)
