than any New Yorker will begin to
admit. The fact that Sadler Wells
Theater Ballet was coming here to
the Capital from February Is to
27 was hardly mentioned before
requests for tickets began to pour
in. All four performances, includ-
ing the matinee, are already q
fourth sold out! This will be the
first time in about Is years that
ballet has been performed here
complete with scenery. It will also
include the first ballet, pineapple

near the center of his interest Is
the particular cause"
Mrs. Faulkner thinks that ask
ing for a financial gift should be
considered an opportunity to tell
the story of the cause. And con-
tributions should be a recreation"
Contributors should never be made
to feel that you are disappointed
lin their gift. And they should be
taken out to see what is done
with the money"
Mrs. Faulkner was involved in
her first Embarrassing campaign
when she still was Miss Elizabeth
Coonley and a freshman at Vassar
College. That was in 1921, and
she wasn't much of an expert then.

and participated in Red Cross.
Community Chest, YWCA and
other fund campaigns. AS chair
man of the Potomac School Fund
drive, she worked four hours a
day, five days week for two years.
"But all soliciting jobs aren't
that time consuming" Mrs. Faulk-
ner hastened to add. "Only chair
manships or executive-type jobs"
The gray-haired. brown-eyed
Mrs. Faulkner also stressed that
even with 80 years experience she
still "gets scared" in asking for
funds.
But I think it's like people who
ride in steeplechases. They're,
scared. But they love it!"
Mrs. Faulkner also is a taker-on
of volunteer jobs other than fund
raising. She now is president of
the K Street YWCA, which pretty
much excludes any other volun-
teer work. But she still keeps UP
an active interest in the Rector's
Aid Society of st. Margaret's
Church.

Fund-Roising Job Not | lard,
Saws Veteran Volunteer
Mrs. Woldron Faulkner Recommends
Regarding 1t as on Adventure
By Ann Wilkinson

Take it from an old hand, fune
raising need not be so painful as
most people make it out to be.
Just look on it as "the only
form. of gambling not frowned
upon by the police" recommends
Mrs. Waldron Faulkner. a veteran
Of 80 years of volunteer fund
raising.
'1t is a gamble" Mrs. Faulkner
explained to this reporter the
other day, because you go in
hoping for maybe $500. It may
be three months before you learn
whether or not you will get any
thing. And then it may be $25-
or $3.0o0!"
Look at it as an adventure and
you won't get worn out by it," is
her advice. Because she has been
so successful at practicing what
she breaches, Mrs. Faulkner was
asked recently to give a pep talk
to the group just now setting
out to raise money for a wing to
the Beauvoir School building, al
though she is not involved in that
fund drive.
Most people-on both sides
have the wrong attitude about
fund raising. asking and contrib
uting," Mrs. Faulkner reasons.
"The caller feels responsible. He
or she must bring home the
bacon. And maybe the person
called on just is not destined to
give to that particular cause"
From her experience in many
fund campaigns, Mrs. Faulkner
knows that most solicitors are
"primed to think in terms of a
potential contributors income"
IF the home is not so nice, they
feel sorry for the person who is
being asked to give. If it is nice,
they expect too much.
Most solicitors forget that the
degree of interest Of the contrib
utor is a product Of two variables,"
Mrs. Faulkner analyzes. First,
how much surplus money the con-
tributor has. And second. how

Original Beauty Is Restored
ToCubon Embassy Rooms
Tour of Redecoroted Building Reveals
Luxurious Marble Stairway, Ballroom
By Kothorine M. Brooks

The Cuban Ambassador, DR.
Luis Machado. has restored the
Cuban Embassy to much of its
original beauty. This was neces-
sary because of the need for new
pipes. all of which now are OF
copper and will last lifetime
While restoring worn pipes, elec-
trio wiring was inclosed. Every
thing is modern except the fur
nishings and pictures. Even some
of these are new.
The Embassy was built about
IS years ago when DR.. Carlos
Manuel de Cespedes was Minister
It was modelled after that of the
villa in Italy of Sonora de Cepedes
Before her marriage to the Cuban
newspaper publisher, Sonora de

The Minister and Sonora de
Cespedes moved into the new Le-
cation, now the Embassy. in De-
cember. 1917, giving up the house
at 1929 Eighteenth street where
they lived for the three years
after he presented his credentials
in 1914. DR.. de Cespedes died
some years ago, but Sonora de
Cespedes still makes her home in
Havana where their daughter,
Signora Bounous, wife of Signor
Franco Bounous Of Rome, is vis-
iting her. Signor Bounous was
First Secretary of the Italian En-
bassy for a year or more and went
home in September to take a post
in the Ministry Of Foreign Affairs.
Signora Bounous is expected to
come to Washington next month
or Immediately after Christmas.
She is awaiting the publication
of the English translation of her
latest book, now a best seller in
italy. She uses her maiden name,
Alba de Cespedes, in her writing.

$4,000 Bond Set
In Assault Charqe

George F. Hoffman, 80. Of the
600 block North Carolina avenue
Sc. today is under $4,000 bond,
awaiting grand jury action on a
charge of assaulting a 38-year-old
woman with intent to rape her.
Police said Hoffman is an en-
ploye of the Naval Ordnance
Laboratory at White Oaks, Md,
who is separated from his wife.
The woman, who lives in Oxon
Hill, Md, yesterday told Municipal
Court Judge Thomas c. Scalley
that, late Tuesday night, as she
was walking home from a drug
store in the first block of Southern
avenue Sc, a man she identified
as Hoffman drove up in a car and
asked if she wanted a ride home.
She testified she got in the front
seat and that Hoffman drove in
another direction from that in
which she lived. Then, she said.
he pointed a German Luger at her
and told her to get in the back
seat. AS she got out Of the car to
change seats, she ran. He chased
her as she called for help, and ac-
cording to her testimony. Hoffman
cried to her: "If you yell any more.
you'll be a corpse"
The woman said she noticed
some people she knew, and when
Hoffman observed this he agreed
to stop molesting her If she
wouldn't press charges. The woman
said she agreed to this, and the
man ran away. But when she ar
rived home. she called police, who
arrested Hoffman yesterday in his
home, after tracing him through
the license number, which the
woman said she jotted down be-
fore she entered the car.
The woman also Is separated
from her husband.
