Among Guests in Georgetown
By Betty MHHken

flowers with pale blue streamers
that matched the velvet ribbon in
her blond hair
Mrs. Bellinger had planned to
wear blue gown but the difficulty
in getting the right shade changed
her plans and instead she wore
smart gray crepe enlivened by a
cluster of purple orchids. "Patsy's"
older sister, Miriam, who's nick
name is 'Mimsie' and who made
her debut in '43 when her father
was stationed in Norfolk, wasn't in
the receiving line. She was very
helpful, though. in entertaining the
guests. First you'd see her in the
garden, then a little while later in
the fower-filled drawing room or
dining room. She wore a pretty
cherry-rade and white print gown
trimmed with velvet bows, and her
subdeb sister Eleanor, who like
wise did her share as hostess. was
in full-skirted frock of black
organdy.
OF the $50 guests invited to the
debut. Mrs. Bellinger asked only
eight friends to take turns pouring
tea and serving sherbet. In the
throng were high-ranking naval
officers, including associates of the
admiral on the General Board.

the nature of those engraved evi-

answer wherein he accepted, with
pleasure for his company with the
exception of one man, who is in the

A somewhat surprised old lady
