Presidents Foundation
Ball Plans Go Forward
Birthday Celebration Here Will Be Attended
by Mrs. Roosevelt and Mrs.
Curtis DALI

This concert will be played in the
dining ROOM where tables will be
placed for music lovers-who may wish
to entertain at supper following the
concert, but whether they do or whether
they do not-be 1t known there Is nc
supper planned by the committee in
connection with the ball Assisting DR.
Kinder on the Music Committee are
Mrs. Lawrence Townsend. Mrs. Robert
Woods Bliss, Mrs. Tracy Dows and
Mrs. Walter Bruce Howe, who have
agreed that the concert be possibly a
half hour in length.
Later in the evening there will be
other delightful features in an enter
tainment, the detail of which is being
carefully guarded at the present moment
by the powers that be, but the mere
announcement that succession Of or
chestras playing both dance music and
concert music will come from big cities
of the East is sufficient to intrigue the
most satiated ball-lover, in this ball
loving city.
Elaborate details for the ball have
been worked out by Gen. Willism E:
Horton and his Floor Committee and
the brilliant uniforms and decorations
of the Army Navy and Marine officers
who make up large proportion OF the
Floor Committee, together with the
decorations worn by members OF the
diplomatic corps, will add splendor to
the scene.
Acting as chairman of arrangements
Mr.. Ray Baker has planned for many
events of a social nature throughout
the city on January 80. but nevertheless
everybody who can do so. will attend
the birthday ball at the Shoreham at
some time between the hours Of 10 pm
and am. on that occasion.
Not only from all parts of the city
but from all parts of the country are
coming continual inquiries as to the sale
of tickets for this ball. where they may
be bought and when; and how much
they cost. so that the Ticket Committee
headed by the controller of the cur
rency, Mr.. j. F. T. O'Connor, announces
once more. perforce. that the ball is
open to the public, which may obtain
tickets at IS each, at any of the hotels,
including. of course, the Shoreham, and
at the committee headquarters in the
Transportation building on H street.
Of the many many hundreds of
birthday balls throughout the length
and breadth of the land. many will be
scenes of magnificence filled to the brm
with color and charm; but although the
New York ball will take place in the
Waldorf Astoria. and although there
will be a series of splendid birthday
parties from Florida to New England
and from there to California. it is
doubtful if any will have the thrill OF
the birthday ball in the Capital City OF
the Nation
