MRS. Eisenhower is keeping up
her usual hectic pace. Mrs. Mary
Jane McCaffree. secretary to the
Presidents wife, announced Mrs.
Eisenhower's Forthcoming social
schedule yesterday at a news
conference.
Although the Congressional
reception at the White House
last evening was the last State
reception, it is by no means the
last large party.
On Monday the President and
Mrs. Eisenhower will be hosts to
Governor General of Canada
Vincent Massey. He will be here
on a State visit at the invita-
ton of the Eisenhowers and his
schedule will follow that of pre-
ceding visits of heads of
countries.
The first night the Governor
General will stay at the White
House and the President and
Mrs. Eisenhower will entertain
at a dinner in his honor. The
next day he will move to Blair
House and visit both Mount Ver-
non and Arlington Cemetery.
That afternoon he will visit
the National Gallery of Art, be-
ing great art lover. and later
in the afternoon will receive
members of the Canadian EN-
bassy at the Chancery. The same
night will see a turn -about and
the President and Mrs. Eisen-
hover will be the guests of nonor
at a dinner given by Gov. Gen.
Massey. The party will take
place at the Canadian Embassy.
The visitor will be in Wash
ington until the fifth but his full
schedule for that day has not
been completed. He will not,
however. be the usual Washing
ton spring sight-seer. since he
served here at one time as his
country's Minister.
On May the fourth Mrs. Eli
senhower will be honored at a
luncheon given by the Senate
Ladies. This will appropriately
take place in the Senate Caucus
room.

my conception Of Paradise
must now be altered" Paki-
stan Ambassador Ali said to
Mrs. Joseph E. Davies yester-
day after a tour of her gardens.
That is putting the floral
fairyland. the manicured
lawns. the breathtaking vistas
Of Tregaron about as neatly as
they can be put. That is also
expressing the general opinion
of all the guests who filed into
the palatial residence on
Klingle road yesterday after
noon for the first of the two
garden parties held this week.
When the skies poured forth
earlier in the day for no ap-
parent benevolent reason, it
looked like tragedy for Tre-
garon. But the weather de-
cided in favor of this party as
usual and miraculously re-
strained itself between 5 and
Z o'clock. The tea table that
had been set UP outdoors in
the morning was transpoSed to
the dining room table with
gold tea services at either end.
The awning was rolled down
over the large brick terrace
in the rear. And guests who
wanted to walk about the gar
den could avoid the damp
grass by using the paved
paths.
Host Absent
Mr.. Davies missed yester-
days gathering. He had had
a fall the day before when
entering the Dacha or Rus
sian house on the grounds and
he was nursing an injured
nose. Marjorie Davies, in a
gray taffeta dress with ribbon
enscrolled skirt, received with
her two houseguests, Lady
Brabourne and Lady Birley.
They greeted Mrs. Robert
Taft and her close friend, Mrs.
Darrah Wunder, who leave
Washington today to return to
Cincinnati. If they come back
1t will not be before next Jan
uary.
Mr.. Clarence Francis, spe-
cial consultant to the Presi-
dent and former president and
chairman of the board of
General Foods, in which Mrs.
Davies has such an interest,
was among those present. He
spends four days a week at
the White House as co-ordin-
ator Of surplus goods, then
whips up to his home in
Bronxville for the other three.
When he saw the Pakistan
Ambassador, he questioned
him about his country's needs.
The Ambassador smiled. IT
have just sent you a message"
he said, that the 10000
pounds Of wheat won't be
needed"
ReDubIicons Present
Representative Jim Fulton
arrived with his attractive
sister from Pittsburgh, Mrs.
Paul Dewitt Gephart, who
later went to the White House
reception with him. Hawaiian
Delegate and Mrs. Earring
ton. Alec and Virginia Hag-
ner and Mr.. and Mrs. John
Marshall, Mrs. Floyd Akers
and her chic daughter Toma-
jean; Gen. and Mrs. Wade H.
Haislip. the David Sterlings,
and Connie Bennett Coulter
and her goodlooking husband
were others present.
And that just about covers
all the Republicans glimpsed
at this party. It is surmised
that Saturdays to-do will
have more of an administra-
ton flavor.
On the Democratic side were
Mesdames Mike Monroney,
Burnet Maybank, A. Mitchell
Palmer. Leslie Biffle. Harold
Ickes, Clark Thompson, Dom

IsroeIis Are Hosts

Servicemen from the Wash

at the Chancery of the Israel

foyer, comparing notes on chill
dren and household problems.
Both said they had been too
busy to watch the televised hear
ings. Mrs. Benson said she had
spent Monday "scrubbing down
my kitchen walls" Mrs. Nixon
said she had been out much of
the time. attending various
meetings and teas.
'Tricia Cher daughter), was
quite worried about my hair to-
night, because I'd been out in
the rain so much," she said.
But she finally decided ] would
do"
The Vice Presidents wife was
wearing a handsome Philippine
terno dress given her during her
recent Far Eastern trip by the
wife of President Magsaysay of
the Philippines. The dress, of
gold-colored just cloth embroid-
cred with gold thread, had short
sleeves (she had the full sleeves
removed, a full skirt and huge
gold revers on the tight-fitting
bodice. With it she wore
triple strand of large pearls at
her neck. centered by a round
gold pin.
New Senotor There
Another center of attention
was Senator Eva Bowring of
Nebraska, the Senate's newest
member and its second woman,
who was sworn in just the day
before to complete the term of
the late Senator Griswold.
Dressed in a new blue lace
dress which she bought last week
in Omaha especially for the oc-
casion, the attractive blue-eyed
grey-haired ranchwoman said
she was having a wonderful
time at her first White House
reception.
do I have stars in my eyes
at 62?" she asked with a smile.
II feel as though I do"
Mrs. Bowring was chuckling
because she previously had
turned down a few opportunities
to be received at the White
House. IT always said no, and
then added kiddingly, Tn going
to wait until I can go in more
select company I certainly
didn't expect that to come true"
The new woman Senator was
escorted to the reception by
Senator Thye of Minnesota and
his wife, her neighbors in the
Sheraton-Park. Dark-haired Mrs.
Thye was wearing a crimson red
dress with a front panel of a
lighter shade of rose red.
White Tie Dilemma
Last nights many Chamber of
Commerce functions apparently
prevented some members of
Congress from getting to the
White House. Those who did
make the reception, however,
appeared to have successfully
solved their terrible dilemma of
how to attend early evening C.
of c. functions in business suit
or black tie. yet turn up at the
White House by nine, turned out
in white tie and tails.
Many of the legislators were
vastly unenthusiastic about ap-
pearing before their Chamber of
Commerce constituents in white
tie and tails, especially in an
election year. Yet there was
scarcely time to go back home
and change.
A few. queried, confided they
had solved the problem by ar
ranging a changing room" at
the Mayflower Hotel.
BY one method or another, al
most every one present was prop
erly turned out in formal attire.
President Grave
The reception started promptly
on the dot of nine, when a grave,
President escorted Mrs.
Eisenhower down the steps to
the main foyer while the Marine
Band played Hail to the Chief"
The First Lady was wearing a
pale blue frock with pleated tulle

The pipelines, including the line

SagaOf North

A blistering action-filled adven-
lure drama set against the intri-
guing background of the frozen
North is ALASKA Seas" the brand
new Paramount film which opens
Friday at the Strand Theatre. Star
ring a top-notch cast headed by
Robert Ryan, Jan Sterling, Gene
Barry and Brian Keith, alaska
Seas" concerns itself with the tur-
bulent battle that salmon fisher
men and sea-going h-jackers wage
for domination of the icy waters.
On one side there is Brian Keith,
Leader OF the independent fisher
men, who want only to ply their
profession in peace. On the other
side of the fence however, is the
nefarious modern-day pirate, Gene
Barry, who wishes to corner the
silver-finned salmon market for
himself. On the scene comes Rob-
ert Ryan an adventurer who has
just been released from prison. He
is an old friend OF Keith's and
goes to work for the independent
fishermen, much against the lat
ters' will, as they know his true
nature.
Further complicating the rela-
ton between Ryan and his friend,
Keith, is the fact that they are both
in love with Jan Sterling, the beau
tiful daughter of the local inn
keeper. Ryan had been her steady
beau, but upon his departure from
the territory Keith had supplanted
him. Miss Sterling cannot make UP
her mind which one she really
loves. Ryan becomes, first jealous,
and then vindictive and soon joins
forces with the pirate chief Gene
Barry.
1t is then that the treacherouS
ice-filled waters become red with
blood and fierce battle breaks out
between the two opposing forces.
In crashing climax, with open
warfare being fought against
background of towering icebergs,
the film comes to its exciting end.
Seldom in the history of Holly
wood production has such a fero-
ciously fought battle been enacted.
Alaska Seas" is film that pro-
duces chills that emanate not only
from the frozen wastes which
serve as its background but from
the suspense generated from the
plot as well.
All members of the stellar cast
perform in exemplary fashion.
Robert Ryan is particularly win
ming in his role.
Alaska Seas" was directed by
jerry Hopper and was produced
by Mel Epstein. The fast-paced
screenplay was written by Geoff-
cry Homes and Walter Doniger
