Exclusively Yours--- BETTY ,=>-z

If there's anything funnier
than a funny looking hat it
has yet to be discovered-un-
less, perhaps, it's a husbands
expression when he sees one,
No doubt that's why Junior
LeaguerS will include a "vint-
age headdress" competition in
their anniversary ball at the
MayfloWer on the 18th. Mem
bers, husbands, friends, all are
even now scratching the bean
for prize-winning lids illustrat-
ing the five vintage years"
The way the Washington
league sees it, during the 40
years of it's existence, it's been
through five colorful decades
that might as we'll be me-
morialized in millinery. They
are the "Ragtime and Riches"
era of 1914 that marked the
beginning of jazz generations
and pc fame of the dancing
Castles (maybe a bunnyhug on
the head would suffice); and
the f1apper epoch of 1924 when
the quinteSSence of chic was
to have an lin" at the Smartest
Speakeasies; 10 years later the
depression of 1884 that's bound
to produce some apple basket
headgear: the war year of
1914 that will flood the dance
with the military caps of gobs
to generals; and finally the
coming year of 1854 or "Fut-
wanna" that might produce a
cross between a space cadets
helmet and a Paris prediction.
Prizes for each will be suit
able to the period.
Dinner parties before the
ball already lined up include
Joan and Britton Brownies.
They will have some out-of-
town guests here. The Cabell
