DR.. Baron introduced the
guests to DR.. Mendieta, and
they were in turn greeted by
Catherine Bacon, who is an
American by birth and knows
everyone in Washington. For
the occasion she selected a
becoming afternoon gown of
black velvet, designed on
simple lines with short sleeves
and a long skirt ending in a
short train.
AS at each Cuban Embassy
party, effective flower ar
rangements make one really
stop and admire them, and
yesterday yellow and white
chryanthemums carried out
the color scheme throughout
the embassy.
Mrs. Cordell Hull, wife Of the
Secretary of State, arrived with
Mrs. Henry Morgenthau, wife Of

Nancy Letters dress which
she wore to her own gala party
last Saturday, was, so we are
informed, both different and
smart. Different, because the
neck and low V in the back, and
also the tiny sleeves, were out
lined in creamy lilies of the val
ley, and smart because the dress
was so plain and exquisitely cut.
nR. ROBERTO DE MEN
~ DOzA, first secretary Of the
Cuban Embassy and a very
charming person, is a nice ex-
ample Of older brothers the
world over. You know, their
little sisters never quite grow
I'D, so think these brothers.
Recently, DR.. M en- d OF as
mother and his sister came to
visit him at the Shoreham and
DR.. Mendoza, in making all ar
rangements for them, signed
the register as Sonora and Sc
norita de Mendoza. Forgetting,
for the moment, that his little
sister (and she is very lovely)
was being addressed and with
great dignity as Sonora Ferrer.
She was married just a little
while ago and while DR.. Men
doza was stationed abroad.
Well, the second day. Sonora
Ferrer asked is there was any
mail for her. The answer was
no. Again she asked and the
same no greeted. Finally, she
was informed that no mail had
come yet for Senorita Mendoza
at the hotel.
Then explanations were in
order, and the little sister of DR..
Mendoza received all the mail
addressed to Sonora Ferrer.
Which was exactly what she
wanted, for all of it was from
her husband, and naturally, the
most important thing in the
world to her.
GONE day, some one will do

Heigh-Ho, two very beautiful
women came in, each sat at a
different table. "a C h was eS-
corted by one man.
One was blond and is now
married a second time to a very
wealthy New Yorker. The other
was a brunette and is divorced
with no idea of another mar
riage. Each Of these women was
married at various times to the
same man. The blond was his
first wife, the brunette, his
third. Neither had ever met the
other, but during the evening
they were introduced. AS the
evening wore on, these two
women liked each other so much
that they decided and did. call
themselves "The Sisters"
using the name of their former
husband.
MRS. THOMAS BURKE, who
V1 is now flying over South
America with a group of women,
who make up the party to do
with The Peoples Mandate,
spoke via the radio yesterday
from BuenoS Aires. Her voice
and the reception were as clear
as a bell and one wondered if
perhaps she wasn't just around
the corner, instead of thousands
of miles away.
Mrs. Burke is writing some
extremely interesting letters
back and was especially pleased
over their reception in Puerto
Rico, where Governor Blanton
Winship met the party and es-
corted them to the palace to be
his guests instead of staying at
the hotel as they had planned.

You were right both times
It's Jan CARRIER, who comes TO
the Earle on Friday through ar
rangements made by the Music
Corporation Of America, bringing
with him his array Of song stylists
including Russell Brown, Lew Pal
mer, Fritz Heilbron, and Rudy
Rudisal: also Three Ryan Broth
ers and Crawford and Caskey.
Making his debut in professional
music circles shortly after the
war, CARRIER specialized in an en-
tertaining orchestra rather than
a tuneful dance dispensing organi-
zation, and it was not until short
time ago that he revolutionized
his style in favor Of the latter
type Of music.
Critics were dubious about the
reception that would be accorded
his change of style, but once they
heard, they went away satisfied
and CARRIER continues to please.
AS evidence of the tremendous
popularity which this newly
adopted manner of presentation
has brought him, it is only neces-
sary to point out the constant
clamor> for return engagements
wherever the band has performed.
The Trianon ballroom in Chi
cago has featured Jan CARRIER and
his orchestra for two seasons and
would like to keep him. The Cata-
lima Island Casino featured the
diminuting Glowing baton waver
for three seasons and would also
like to keep him, but Jan is not
his own boss, and it's easier for
the music to be brought to the
people than vice versa.
More recently Jan CARRIER and
his orchestra have been featured
at the Catalina Island Casino and

part of an Idaho judge revered
by the community and loved by
his family. When scandal and

to its compelling theme it holds
many moments Of uproarious
comedy.
On the stage, for the second
time in local movie-house his
tory, an honeSt-to-goodneSS circus
will be presented with a long
string of famous circus per-
formers, a four-ton elephant,

Trying To Stave Off.
Many senators and representatives,
besides, have faced issues that they
did not want to vote on. They have
not wanted to vote one way and they
have not wanted to vote the other
way. All they have wanted was to adj
journ without voting.
That has been the reason for the
clamor for adjournment; it was not
the Washington weather.
OF course, all of these straddlers
have realized that they must take
sides some time, but the idea has been
to stave off decision until next NOM

What worries these trimmers is the
