Washington debutantes for 1926.2i
are fast falling into line under the
guidance of Mrs. Helen Ray Hagner,
who is arranging for about all of the
exclusive buds of the Winter. While
dates are omitted because of so
many kinks in the official social roster
of Washington during the season
which calls for changes, most of them
have been carefully selected, but not
for publication. New York, Philadel-
phia and other cities of much less
social importance than the Capital,
have already announced the list of
debutantes, the day of their coming
out and the various affairs attendant
upon the events. However, those
cities are not official.
One of the most interesting of all
the girls to be presented is Miss
Katharine Amory, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Copley Amory, 1911 Q street,
who was a student at the Shipley
School and has, travelled much abroad.
Assistant Secretary OF the Navy and
Mrs. Theodore Douglas Robinson will
introduce their daughter, Miss Helen
Robinson-that is, if rumor is cor
rect. Scarce a season has passed
since the Roosevelt administration
without some important relative
being introduced, married or indicted
into Office here, so there is every hope
that this charming girl will lead the
official buds.
Col. and Mrs. Edward Clifford have
a gifted young daughter, Miss Helen
Clifford, who will come out under the
most favorable circumstance pos
sible and with a well established
entree to the White House and the
home of the Vice President and Mrs
Dawes.
Other important buds are Miss
Alice Cults, daughter of Col. and
Mrs. Richard Cults of 3101 Thirty
fourth street; Miss Adelaide Doug
las, daughter OF Mrs. David H. Blair,
and as lovely as is her mother: Miss
Florence Marlatt, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Charles L. Marlatt, whose
mother was Miss Helen Mackay-
Smith: Miss Helen Galley, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Prescott Galley;
Miss Frances Gore, daughter of
Capt. and Mrs. Albert ]. Gore; Miss
Nancy Hamilton. whose parents are
Mr. and Mrs. John j. Hamilton of
26l1 Woodley place; Miss Barbara
Hight. who is now abroad with her
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Frank S.
Hight, and Miss Frances Hopkins,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. F. E. Hop
kins.
Gen. and Mrs. John w. Joyes will
introduce their daughter, Miss
Georgiana Joyes. Bidding fair to
be as popular as is her lovely
mother, is listed Miss Jane Kendall,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Lyman
Kendall of Kentsdale, gifted
musician and generally accomplished.
The president Of George Washing.
ton University and Mrs. William
Mather Lewis will present their
daughter, Miss Sarah Lewis, who is
now abroad. Miss Rebecca Lipscomb
will be introduced by her mother,
Mrs. Charles c. Lipscomb Of Ward
man Park Hotel; Mr.. and Mrs. Perez
val Risdale will introduce their daugh-
ter, Miss Betty Risdale; Miss Allison
Roebling will be presented by her
mother, Mrs. Arthur O'Brien; Miss
Olive Sherley will come out under the
auspices of her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Swager Sherley; Miss Harriet White
ford's parents, Mr.. and Mrs, George
L. Whiteford, will present her, and
Miss Harriette Zimelee's mother, Mrs.
Harry B. Zimlee, will give her com.
ing-out party.
Rumors are always rife, and this
year some of the best of the debuts
are in allegiance. Among them is Miss
EveIen Walker, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Harold Walker, who may or may
not come out this season. Miss
Katherine Stringer, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. w. Breckenridge Stringer,
stands in the same uncertain light,
and Miss Hester Ann Lefevre, daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Charles Lefevre, and
several others are in the same class.
Gen. and Mrs. Amos Fries have a
