a few numbers just to refresh his
memory Of those good old Chevy
Chase Lake days. Mrs. Francis
Rogers, wife of French opera
star, was so touched with Pauline
Acmatova's singing at the Troika
the other night that she took
from around her neck a string
of pearls and presented it to this

perform several individual Spe'
