High Officials
Plan to attend
Benefit Sb0W

There will be many high ranking
officials of the Government and
service sets, as well as a number OF
wartime heroes, at the gala bene-
fit performance of 1cecapades OF
l949 on January 27.
Presented for the Soldiers, Sailors
and Marines Club endowment fund,
the show will be especially appreci-
'ated by the groups of convalescent
patients from servicemen's and vet
erans' hospitals who have been
given seats and boxes.
The Bureau Of Ordnance Of the
Navy, under the command of Rear
Admiral Albert j. Noble, has do
mated seats to patients at Bethesda
and Mount Alto, as have Gen. and
Mrs. Alexander A. Vandegrift, who
will come here for the performance
The Vandegrifts are longtime
friends and staunch supporters OF
the club. Walter Reed Hospital will
receive seats and boxes from Col
and Mrs. Robert Guggenheim ano
Mrs. McCook Knox.
One of the most valued dona-
tions is a generous check from Mrs.
Jesse H. Metcalf of Providence, r.
l., who in 1880 gave the club at
1O15 L street NV. the adjacent
building now known as Metcalf
Annex, and in 1914 a fine new locker
room in the rear of the house. Mrs.
Metcalf has truly been the good
angel Of the club and her interest
has continued through the years.
This club, where enlisted men
can get minimum priced food and
lodging, exists only for their COM
fort and recreation.
With generous volunteer work,
strict economy and small allot-
ment from the Community Chest,
the club carries on today. It's future
maintenance will be assured by ad-
ditions to it's steadily growing en-
dowment fund.
Tickets may still be bought at
1015 L street. Call Sterling 1880.

marionette stage. Children see
what the puppets really look like
watch them perform on the stage
and finally end up looking at the
Junior Leagues television show for
the youngest set called "Playtime."

oh" said the woman to the
former Republican presidential can
didate, Il thought We were going
to be celebrating your being Presl-
dent!"
Quick as a flash, out popped Mrs
Snyder: President of what?"
Taft, though, had his innings be-
fore the evening was over. Seems
that Leslie Biffle said something
about feeling little tired. Up
spoke some one else present. Just
think how tired you will be at the
end of this week" Whereupon Taft
whipped out with a warning OF
what's to come: That's nothing
compared to what you are going
to be at the end of this session when
I get through with you Judging
from the party talk, there's danger
ahead for the Democrats.
