she and her companion-secre-
tary, Reathel Odum, had arrived
at 4 in the morning after driv-
ing from Allentown, Pa, where
she gave concert Wednesday
night. During her three weeks
here she plans to rest up from
this last two months concert
tour during which she sang al
most every other night. She will
next appear on Jimmy Melton'S
TV show on May 20. That dia-
mond and sapphire ring she was
wearing on her engagement fin
ger, she said, was given to her
by her parents when she was
graduated from G. w. and has
no other significance. She can't
wear it on the right hand be-
cause the pressure from con-
slant handshaking makes it
painful.
How does she feel about her
father retiring from the presi-
dency? Anything Dad does is
IL right with me-" she said.
Margaret Swipes Cookies
Margaret went upstairs a lit
tie after 6, then slipped down
again, went into the dining
room, got a plateful of cakes
and cookies. and then slipped
out again and up in the eleva-
tor. She was probably filling up
before going to the ball game
with her mother later.
Nine. de Kaufman. wife of
the Danish Ambassador, and
her daughter Lisa were the first
to arrive at the reception; the
Norwegian Ambassador and
Nine. de Morgenstienne were
the second ones. Nine. Bonnet
had on a smart gray polka dot
ted starched chiffon over navy
and a broad -brimmed navy hat.
Nine. LIE Calais wore a hand
some ecru brocaded dress; Nine.
Koo, gorgeous pink birds of
paradise on her black hat.
The British Ambassador and
Lady Franks were making their
last appearance till their pc
riod 'of mourning is over the
end of this month. The Egyp-
tian Ambassador and Nine.
Rahim were there-she in a
pale-blue silk dress. The Dutch
Ambassador and Nine. van Roi-
jen were making their first ap-
pearance since the departure Of
Queen Juliana from Washing
ton.
Attracting much attention
was the striking-looking English
wife of Prince Abbasi of the
Pakistan Embassy. Blue eyed
and fair, her long wavy blond
hair hung down below her
shoulders over her jade-green
sari. It is most unusual to see
an Occidental in East Indian
dress.
Senator and Mrs. John Spark
man, Senator and Mrs. Bill Full
bright and Senator Theodore
Francis Green represented the
Foreign Relations Committee,
and Representative and Mrs.

House Foreign Affairs Commit

On the dot of 7, just as it
was planned, no doubt, Presi-

out into the corridor between
two rows of handsome aides
and quietly took the elevator up
stairs, leaving their guests to
depart Immediately after them.

BUDDY JOHNSON
PLAYS WATER
BOY FOR B.-C.C.

TAMPA, Fla. - (ANP) -
Bandleader Buddy Johnson never
cared too much about being the
star Of a football team and be-
coming the gridiron hero of the
campus. In fact, he never wanted
to be the quarterback, fullback
or end. But Buddy, strange from
ordinary desires Of a young kid,
wanted to be the team water
boy, or pail hustler as we call 1t
today.
At the recent Bethune-Cook-
man and Kentucky State football
game he got his wish. Visiting the
Bethune-C Goodman team dressing
rooms Buddy Johnson expressed
his desire to Sam Davis, team
water boy. Davis told johnson
that he could have the job If,
he, Davis, could sing with his
band that night at the Coronation
ball.
Buddy agrees, and when the
whistle blew for the kickoff, he
