Nine. Boncon1pogni's S
Visit Reason for
Many Parties
By Katherine M. Brooks

Nine. Draper Boncompagni is
being much entertained at small
and informal parties by friends
made during her debut year in
Washington. She came back
from a summer in Europe. mostly
in Paris and Italy. and after
visits in New England and some
time in New York, she came to
the Capital.
She is staying at the Sulgrave
Club and will spend Christmas
in her New York apartment.
Early in the new year Nine. Bon.
compagni will go to Florida and
will be here again for the spring
season.
The small and informal parties
are being given by those who were
debutantes the same season that
Nine. Boncompagni came out in
the Capital. Their year was one
of the very gay and glamorous
seasons for entertaining and as
Miss Margaret Preston Draper,
she was one of the little group
familiarly called "The Big Six"
1t was one of the first seasons
that debutantes gave dinner par
ties, for in those days the young
ladies always were chaperoned by
a married woman, though some
times she was the same age or
even younger than the unmarried
maidens. For instance, Miss Draper
was hostess at a luncheon-with
only her sister debutantes present
and Mrs. Sherman Miles pre-
sided for her.
Mrs. Miles was married only a
few weeks before the loncheon to
the then lieutenant, now Maj.
Gen. Sherman Miles. She was
Miss Davide Yulee Noble, a cousin
of Nine. Boncompagni, daughter
of Mrs. William Belden Noble and
granddaughter of Senator David
Yulee of Florida. 1t was Senator
Yulee who, as Delegate from the
Territory Of Florida, was instru-
mental in bringing Florida into
Statehood. Miss Draper was in
the wedding party of Miss Noble
and 1t. Miles.
All Close Friends
The six debutantes who were in
innate friends were Miss Gladys
Hinckley, now Mrs. McCeney Wer-
lich; Miss Alice Whiting, now Mrs.
John B. Cochran; Miss Laura
Merriam, now Mrs. John M. Gross
of Bethlehem, Pa; Miss Sophy
Johnston, later Mrs. L. Randolph
Mason of New York. and Miss
Eudora Clover.
Miss Clover came from Paris to
live in Washington shortly after
World War II and had an apart
ment on Massachusetts avenue.
She also purchased a place in the
Rockville area and had numerous
reunions with the other girls"
who came out with her.
Mime. Boncompagni found her
former home on K street at the
corner of Connecticut avenue COM
pletely gone when she came back
\ this fall. She sold the property
