"duplicate" name, Anne II. Town.
sord the niece of Mr.. and Mrs. Daniel
4 Newhall. Her double is Anne B.
TMownsend, r. the daughter Of Mr.. J. Bar
.on Townsend, of Overbrook, who came
out three years ago and is n wonderful
..nnis U" player. It's very complicated,
Socause YOU always have to explain,
"oh mean the other one, not that
one." whenever you talk about either
Tbree girls who have more or less
.ho same name are Libby Boyd who,
,nronerly ,' speaking, is Lysbeth X. Boyd
and Ia engaged to 'Pete" or Hank
Rorie--variously called; Betty Boyd,
tho daughter Of DR.. and Mrs. George
Rord. and Elizabeth Boyd who, luckily
for the peace of mind Of people with
M memory for names, is now Mrs.

Another two whose similarity OF
names caused endless confusion are
Marjorie Taylor, the daughter Of Mrs.
Nathan Taylor, of Chestnut Hill, and
4, Marjorie Taylor, the daughter Mr..

is now Mrs. Gordon Hardwick. And

day. Friday and Saturday, at the
Broad Street Theatre, and they gave
some of their solos and duets and quar-
tets and the things for ''the world at

EROM all that hear there are going

dances for the debs and their friends as

a dinner before it for Ellen Douglas
Lloyd. The next night Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Tracy Griswold will entertain
for Cintra Ellis and Abby Rockefeller,
Of New York.
Abby, or Babs, as most people call
her. has visited here before, and Is
most interesting and attractive. She
has been around the world several times
and all that sort Of thing. She is very
pretty. with wavy brown hair and
brown eyes. She is coming out in New
d, York next winter.
The day of the Griswolds' dance, by
the way. is the same day as Frances
Leiper and Thomas Ridgway Barker s
wedding. Didn't you love the fascinat- =
ing blue maps they sent with the in
vitations to show every one how to get
