Three foreign-born young women
and a foreign-born United States
Army veteran praised warmly yes
terday the Anericanization School
and what it has done for them in
brief talks before members of the
Twentieth Century Club.
Accompanying Mrs. Helen Kier-
nan-Vasa, teacher of advanced
English at the Americanization
School, to luncheon meeting of the
civics-education section of the club
the four students told how they hao
learned to speak, read and write
English in the few short weeks they
have attended the school.
First to speak was Mrs. Aurette
Rem. She was born in Turkey oi
a Greek father and French mother
and Is now married to an American
citizen. The pretty, dark-haired
Mrs. Rem said she spoke fluent
French, Turkish, Greek and Italian
but very little English when she
arrived in the United States about
two months ago. In fluent English
she said, Now have many friends
and I love the school,"
Senorita Blanca Rocha, of Colon
bia, South America, told of her in
tention to attend college in the
United States after which she will
return to her own country to teach
English. She also gave credit tc
the Americanization School for hel
progress in the language.
Miss Sylvia Menou, who was
reared in Athens, Greece, although
born in the United States, said she
had returned to the land of hel
birth in September after suffering
through the years of Nazi occupa-
ton.
There is no other school in the
whole world like the Americaniza-
ton School," she declared. She will
attend George Washington Univer-
sity after completing her course at
the AmericaniZation School and will
major in languages.
The Army veteran, Yasin MishaI,
an Arab from Palestine, explained
how he had learned in the Army
what it meant to have an education.
Immediately after discharge a few
weeks ago, he enrolled at the Amer
icanization School to study reading
and writing.
when I first came to America
I thought earning money was the
main thing in life" he said. Now
I think that getting an education
is the most important thing in life"
The four students were introduced
after talk by Mrs. Vasa, who de-
clared she was pinch hitting" for
Miss Maude Aiten, principal of the
Americanization School, now recov-
ering from illness.

This is supposed to be the lun
that follows the gay, mad holiday
pace, but somebody forgot to tell
WaShingtonians about it. The par
ties may not be as large and lavish
but they continue with the same
frequency and their smaller size, if
anything, adds to their interest.
First on all social lists, of course,
is the First Lady, who will entertain
at luncheon at the White House
on Tuesday the 22d. This coming
Tuesday the Australian Minister,
Sir Frederic Eggleston, will give a
small dinner, after which about 40
guests will drop in to see a motion
picture on Australia. On Friday,
January 18, the Dominican Ambas-
sador and Sonora de Garcia -Godoy
will be hosts at a dinner in honor
of the former Colombian Ambassa-
dor to Washington, DR.. Gabriel Tur-
bay. DR.. Turbay, frequent visitor
in Washington, is a candidate for
the presidency of Colombia. The
following evening Mrs. Durham
Wood will give a dinner before the
second of the three dances of the
Dancing Glass at the Sulgrave Club.
And on January % the Panamanian
Ambassador, DR.. Don Vallarino, will
be host at cocktails for men only in
honor of the Assistant Secretary of
State, Mr.. Spruille Braden. The
Ambassador and his wife will be
dashing up to New York for the
week end.

special mention is the luncheon Mrs.

man, which was such success that
every one stayed on and on. Mrs.
Patterson was especially pleased
because her daughter Virginia was
thus able to meet the First Lady
when she got home from school.

About the Best-Dressed.
The recent listing of the worlds
"beSt-dresSed" women has inspired
numerous suggestions as to who
from Washington should have been
included thereon. New Workers still
insist that most Washington women
dress like Southern belles-meaning
that they wear too many frills, fur
bellows and feathers, in contrast to
the tailored attire of attractively
outfltted women in other cities.
But defy any one from New York
or elsewhere to take issue with me
that at least eight leading women of
Washington are as we'll dressed, if
not better, than any others any
where. And in that category I place
Sonora de Cardenas, wife of the
Spanish Ambassador; Nine. Bonnet
wife of the French Ambassador
Nine. Hassan, wife of the Egyptian
Minister; Mrs. Patrick Hurley, Mrs
Kent Legare (who, incidentally
made the "best-dressed" list twice.
