Rosamond Castle, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. William Z. Castle. who is bound
to profit by the popularity OF her
parents, until she has had time to de-
velop a personal popularity for herself;
Mr.. Castle is one of the younger State
Department men. who with their wives
make up a very smart little coterie in
Washington. all people with a distinct
gift for entertaining.
Also there is Dorothy Warren. pretty
young daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Bates
Warren. who has been counted among
this years debutantes. But | seem to
have heard that Mrs. Warren had
changed her mind on that and decided
to send Dorothy abroad for year In
stead. And Mrs. Stanton Peelle's pretty
daughter. Betty Byrne. who had also
been listed as one who would be pre-
sented this season. but who seems likely
to delay for another year. That is
not astonishing. for Miss Betty is an
attractive child. but rather fragile look
ing. and it would seem the part of
wisdom not to let her "go" too hard
for another year. You know the debu-
tante's pace. Her first season is likely
to be a pretty strenuous one. So l
shouldn't wonder If Mrs. Peelle de-
clded to keep Betty quiet for another
year.
Frederick McKenney. daughter OF Mr..
and Mrs. Frederick McKenney, is an
other girl who is expected to make
her <ormaI debut She played around
a good deal with the younger set last
season. but shS was not supposed to
be formally out. She is a younger
sister of that very good looking Vir-
ginia McKenney who came out couple
of years ago.
Washington had rather counted on
RaSciA IF
Leigh Palmer but the Palmers have
gone off to New York to live, and
hear, anyhow, that Mrs. Palmer Is de-
Gliding to defer Miss Bessie's debut for
a year The Palmers count as navy
folk, though really Leigh Palmer re-
signed from the navy shortly after his
marriage to Mrs. McKelvin, an attrac-
tive widow with two small daughters.
Leigh G. Palmer was in his time one
of the White House aids I think it was
during the Taft regime, and he was
well and widely known. After marry
ing Mrs. McKelvin he resigned from
the navy and went into business. Then
when the war came along he. of course,
went back into the service. But he's
out again now and the Palmers have
gone to New York. and presumably
are permanently lost to Washington.
other Possibilities.
There are half a dozen others who
may or may not come out Nancie Tur-
ner Benoist, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Lee Benoist; Carolyn Thorn. daughter
of the Corcoran Thoms; Virginia Sell
den. Virginia Edwards and Alice Mil
burn-all Of whom played around bit
with the debutantes of last season and
were regarded as likely to be formally
presented this season.
It's curious but / don't seem to re-
member single army girl who Is likely
to come out this winter. Jane Moffett,
daughter Of Read Admiral Moffett OF
the Navy Air Service. may be added to
daughter of Rear Admiral Moffett of
Of the head men In naval aviation, and /
understand that pretty Jane has a
yearning to become an aviatrix rather
than a debutante. But / gather too.
that Admiral Moffett goes right up in
the air. when she speaks of it.
Nor has one as yet heard anything
of Congressional and Senatorial debu-
tantes Congress may develop one or
