here's the response I got from the hotel where the Hawaiian Hut was:

Jon,

Thank you for your inquiry regarding the Hawaiian Hut. We don't have any items that I'm aware of from the Hawaiian Hut days of the hotel. There is a book called The Rines Family Legacy regarding history of the family that built the hotel with some old images of the hotel, but there is nothing mentioned about the Hawaiian Hut. We have an old image of the hotel from the early 1970's with a reader sign visible advertising a Polynesian group in the Hawaiian Hut, but the names are not fully visible. I would be happy to scan that picture and get it to you.

If I am able to locate any other information, I will certainly let you know. As we are celebrating our 80th birthday at the Eastland this year, anything historical is of particular interest to us.

Best regards,

Peter J. McNamee
