the others, choice.
Any resemblance between
Louise Parker's party and a
festive Broadway production
was far from coincidental.
Credit goes to the deb's
mother, Mrs. Andrew Parker,
the former Louise Thompkins
Of Washington. who also made
her debut on Christmas.
When Sidney struck up a
waltz-presto, it just hap
pened. Those newly installed
lights that looked like candles
dimmed suddenly, to a soft
romantic glow. Mrs. Parker's
brainstorm, but she hired q
theatrical lighting company to
put it into operation,
Louise's voluminous dress Of
white tulle and lace would
have looked good in any light.
Watching her whirl gracefully
through a "slow one" it would
have been hard to believe the
deb is q dyed-in-tulle litter
bug.
It wouldn't be difficult, how
ever, to pick the strawberry
blond's moment Of the evening.
The surprise cooked up by
bandleader Sidney was q song
entitled Portrait Of Louise or
That's Weezie." He not only
turned out words and lyrics
but presented the deb with her
own personal score.
In the Sulgrave Club receiv-
ing line Andrew Parker looked
the part Of proud father and
husband. With an eye to the
color scheme, Mrs. Parker con-
trasted a bright green gown to
the days decor of holly and
pine. The latter was flown up
from her fathers farm in Vir-
ginia.
Come January "Weezie" will
turn from a party cinderella
into a hard working child
psychology student at Garland

One final tip to the stag
line-Weezie's a first rate cook.

"I've been dancing till my

And with good reason. It was

Sidney's music served with
champagne and eggnog set
the party mood. Not only
young people but even Judy's
grandfather, Judge Frederick
Close, of Bronxville, N. Y, was
having himself a fine time.
The daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Frederic N. Towers looked
pretty as a Christmas package
in a ballerina creation of white
taffeta. With 1t she carried
nosegay of roses.
Mrs. Towers provided sea-
sonal contrast in bright red.
Final touch, color-wise. were
the exotic shaded orchids flown
up from Honolulu by a friend.
The deb's 11-year-old sister
Dorcy. sported a pink taffeta
party dress. Her big brother
Fred, q senior at williams col
lege. was also on hand.
With one successful debut
chalked of her calendar, it's
possible Judy may find herself
debuting again-into print,

Of the wild species Of beans were

But man came along planting
the snap and butter beans in

hurried to consume the bean
