much of the time.
1t was very fitting that Mrs.
Woodrow Wilson should be among
the earlier arrivals for 1t was her
husband, the late President, who
fought so valiantly for the estab-
lisilment and the freedom Of smaller
nations after the Great War. Mrs.
Wilson looked particularly well IN q
black tailored suit, her blue gloves
matching her blouse, and about her
shoulders were silver fox furs. She
stopped and chatted with the Am
bassador and Mrs. Slayik for some
minutes then greeted old friends
In the dining room. F:g;
The Polish Charge dAnaires, Mr..
Stefan Litauer, was accompanied by
his bride of few weeks who
was being introduced at this, the
first such party since their marriage.
Mr.. and Mrs. Litauer stood and
talked for some time with Mrs.
Nikolai ". Novokov, wife d. the
Soviet Ambassador. The latter was

the new Chilean Charge d'Affaires
and Mrs. Mario Rodriguez, enthu-

of the corps and resident Washing

The Bolivian Charge d'Affaires, Mr..
Raul Diez de Medina, was being
welcomed back to the corps by his
colleagues who remember him when
he served in other years.
Mr.. Juraj Slavik, son of the Am

part in assisting members OF the
Embassy staff to see that guests
we're served and that they met each
other. He speaks beautiful English,
having lived in this country with
his mother through the war. He

at Woodrow Wilson High School and
finds school here very different from

here are two and three years under
that.

diplomatic representative in Wash
