Mrs. Eisenhower's s
Nieces All Set
For Gala Affair
BY Betty Miles

Her first party dress brings a
light to the eye of any little girl.
Ellen and Mamie Eisenhower
Moore are no exception. The
pretty sisters are almost as ex-
cited about their new lovely first
party gowns as over the occa-
sion which prompted them-the
inaugural ball of their famous
Uncle Ike.
The girls are the daughters
of 1t. Colonel and Mrs. G. Cor
don Moore. who is Mrs. Eisen-
hower's sister. Colonel Moore.
u. S. A.. retired, is president Of
the Air Transit Service. Their
home on Klingle road has
swirled with activity as the
great day neared, for, along
with time spent for fittings and
picture taking, Mrs. Moore is
serving as chairman of the hos
pitality committee for the entire
Inauguration. This entailed ar
ranging for IL trailers on the
main roads leading into Wash
ington, four in town, informa-
tion booths in the hotels, and.
from Friday on. seeing to 1t that
they were operating smoothly.
It was at Mrs. Eisenhower's
request that Mrs. Moore decided
to take the girls to the ball.
mamie wanted all of the chill
dren to attend" she explained.
Her younger boy, Michael D.
Gill, II, will be on hand. but
her older son, Richard Gill, jr.,
who will parade with the West
Point cadets-a highlight in
Mrs. Moore's day. of course
will not. The cadets are return
ing to the Academy after the
parade.
The girls dresses are "the new
ballerina length. blond, IL
year-old Ellen told us. just about
2 inches above the ankle. The
entire bodice of Ellen's dress,
which is of pink mousseline de
sole, is embroidered with sequins
and pearls. She will wear match
ing mitts and bag, and pink
satin sandals.
Ankle socks had to go for this
occasion, 10-year-old, brunette
Mamie, as fashion-conScious as
her aunt for whom she is named,
decided. So her first pair of
nylon hose was added to her
wardrobe. Mamie's dress, Of
white mousseline de sole over
pink taffeta, is appliqued around
the neckline and sleeves with
white lace, which is dotted with
pearls. The dress is accented with
a pink satin sash and a satin bow
on the skirt. She will wear
white mitts sparked with rhine
stones. and pink satin sandals.
Both girls were recovering
from colds last week, which they
hope will have disappeared COM
pletely by this week end. AS
plans stand now. they will at
tend the ball at the Armory and
at McDonough Memorial Hall at
Georgetown University with their
parents. Should either place
prove too cool, they will slip
smart, short white jeweled swea-
ters over their shoulders.
Mrs. Moore's handsome white
mousseline de sole gown trimmed
with fox will be a head-turner,
but she spoke wistfully Of a beau
tiful Paris gown like gave me
when I visited there last spring,
and which I wanted to wear"
Mrs. Eisenhower objected, how
ever, because it was black. II be-
lieve she's superstitious about It,"
Mrs. Moore said.
