West Side" first became popular a quarter of a century ago in the "Sidewalks of Xew York." Howard Shay Is on the program Tuesday evening. Only guests of the hotel are Invited to the concerts. In the past year, under Mr. Scofes' affable management, the Majestic has become to a large extent a family hotel.
