Grace Hayes, an actress, died on Wednesday in Las Vegas, Nev. She was 93 years old.
Miss Hayes performed in many vaudeville revues and Broadway musical comedies during the 1920's and early 30's, including ''The Merry World'' and ''Ballyhoo.'' The Missouri-born entertainer sang and acted on the NBC radio network in the 1930's and appeared in several films, including ''The King of Jazz'' in 1929. Miss Hayes operated a Hollywood nightclub in the late 1930's, and in 1940 she opened the Red Rooster, one of the first clubs in Las Vegas, where she lived until her death.
Miss Hayes is survived by her son, the actor Peter Lind Hayes; two grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.
Benny Binion had a poker game at the Red Rooster.
