The erudite art experts who
in the past have had the idea
that those who could appreci-
ate the Freer's finest Chinese
bronzeS in the country, its
magnificent Japanese screens
and extraordinary Persian
miniatures. would seek them
out on their own, have now de-
cided that they should do
something about presenting
the treasures to the public. AS
a result the gallery has been
all of a twitter for months
getting the walls painted, the
garden spruced up and every
nook and Granny cleaned. The
dust has even been removed
from the electric bulbs in every
light fixture.
Included on the dinner will
be the Luxembourg Minister
and Nine. lie Calais who have
quite an Oriental collection Of
their own, the Eugene Meyers

minus her husband who left
Wednesday on a trip that Mrs.
Bliss couldn't take. She could
not for the simple reason that
no women are allowed where
Mr.. Bliss is going. He will visit
the Isle of Athos off the coast
of Greece which is a kind Of
monastic republic. There are
40 monaSteries on the island,
some of them dating back to
Justinian's time, and they say
that no female has ever put
foot on the island, though one
or two may have tried. Mr..
Bliss, who filled his former
home Dumbarton Oaks with
Byzantine treasures. is going
to see the priceless pieces that
have been in continuous use
in the churches of AthoS.

Capital Girls Leave for Coronation Two Days Notice;
Freer Coming Out of its Erudite Cell; Coalition Porty

OF all the people going to
the coronation nobody will
have as much fun as two very
attractive Washington girls.
Human nature being what it
is. it's when you decide on the
spur of the last moment to do
something that is gay. mad,
breathless and well nigh i'm
possible that it becomes the
dizziest and most delightful
adventure of your life.
Last Tuesday night Eileen
Travers suddenly became in
fected with the coronation and
travel bug and she called up
Jacqueline Bouvier. will you
go to the coronation if I can
reserve us rooms and passage?"
she asked. Jackie, who was i'm
mediately bitten by the same
bug. said she would if she
could but she would have to let
her know in the morning. She
had to find out if she could
take her vacation from her job
at this time and no doubt she
wanted to confer with her
mother, Mrs. Hugh D. Auchin-
Gloss.
The same evening Eileen
called her father in New York
and asked him if he could get
a room or fiat for them in
London and seats along the
procession route. He said he
would telephone friend Alex
Abel-Smith in London first
thing in the morning because
it was then in the middle of
the night in London. Alex, who
used to be stationed here at
the British Embassy, married
one of Queen Elizabeth's ladies
in waiting. He reached Alex
at Z in the morning and the
latter said to tell the girls to
come ahead, he was sure he
could get them something.
Wednesday afternoon he
cabled that everything was
arranged.
Early that morning Jackie
called and said she could go.
In the meantime Eileen's
mother, Mrs. Edward H. Foley,
jr., was on the wire to New
York trying to get the girls
reservations on the United
States that was sailing on Fri
day. Miraculously that was all
settled too by Wednesday
morning and at 9:30 am. the
two girls went down to the
State Department to get their
passports.
Between that hour and the
next night when they boarded
the midnight train for New
York. they had their pictures
taken, took them back to the
State Department, were vacci-
mated, sent clothes to the

Di||inqhunns Are Hosts; Other Fetes

Mr.. and Mrs. Miles were the
house guests of the GamelS' for
the past two weeks and will stay
with them again for a few days
next week before they leave for

went to the hairdreSsers,
picked up railroad tickets,
picked up steamship tickets,
picked = up passports, packed
SuitcaSes, and they were off.
Emily Foley says she has never
lived through two such breath
less days in her life. Leaving
their families with heads still
swimming, the two girls no
doubt leaned back in solid
comfort the next day on the
luxurious liner that was also
carrying the Presidents prin-
cipal delegate, Gen. George c.
Marshall. to the coronation,
and giggled helplessly over
their frantic efforts to get
ready.
Not having Stewed for weeks
over every phase of the trip,
and about whom they would
see and where they would go,
and each knowing scads of at
tractive people in London, they
will probably have the best
time of all.
