Rear Admiral Newton A.
McCulIy, u. s. N, and Mrs.
McCully are expected to re-
turn to Washington for
another visit the latter part
Of May. And this time there
are several who are hoping
they viii stay long enough
to be entertained.
il Gone Again
Admiral and Mrs. McCully
left for Charleston, S. c., last
evening after having been here
for q day or two at the Pow
hatan Hotel. It was the first
visit to Washington Of Mrs.
McCully, formerly Nine. Olga
Krundycher, OF Russia, whose
marriage TO the American naval
officer took place in Reval,
Esthonia, six months ago.
When Admiral McCully
brought his bride back to this
country they went at once to
Charleston, where the former is
In charge Of the navy yard.
There she was introduced to her
husbands seven adopted RUS
sian children whom he brought
from Russia early IN 1921.
A Charmer
Mrs McCuIy does not look
much older than the sub-deb
daughters she found awaiting
her arrival in Charleston. Al
though IL was announced at the
time of her marriage that she
was 30 years old she looks az
AZ she Is, in the early tWenties.
She Is rather small, blue-eyed,
brown.haired and with . spon-
taneity and responsiveness that
are very charming. Although
she knew little or no English
when she came to this country,
she now speaks It 50 that she Is
easily understood.
There was o. probability that
Admiral McCuIIy would follow
the fashion Of retired naval OF.
ficers and come to make his
permanent home IN Washington
when his retirement takes place
IN q few years.
Gives Up House
But this seems less probable
now that he has sold the house
ut 1871 I st., which he had
here that he passed the first
years OF his bachelor fatherhood
with his family Of seven-five
girls and two boys. And when

It has been occupied by Repre-
sentative and Mrs. John C, Scha.
Ter. OF Milwaukee.
Their lease will expire July /.
They win be leaving washington
the middle OF June, when the
house VIII be emptied OF the fur
niture and other equipment left
there by Admiral McCully. This

little house, which adjoins the
Friends school, win be torn down,
along with several others, to make
way for . medical building.
When Admiral and Mrs. Me-
Gully were here they went around
TO the little house several times
Admiral McCully being reminis.
cent In looking over again every
nook and corner Of the house
and attractive garden in the rear.
In the latter there were IN bios
som fruit trees, which he had
planted and under which he had
played with the children.
He was reluctant to part with
the house-but business must be
served!
