Youth, u, Released
In Knife Incident

serious enough to merit issuance

the Rosslyn Hot Shoppe, was
fired for leaving the premises
without permission. Just before
his final departure. the ex-
employe handled a knife. The

bow here.
Mrs. Alfaro, the former Miss

debut on December 20, 1926.
She was presented by her par
ents, the late Mr.. and Mrs.

Miss Alfaro came out yester-
day afternoon at a tea dance
given by her parents at the
Chevy Chase Club. The hostess
yesterday could not help but
recall her own party which
took place at Rauschers just
before it was torn down. The
mirrored ballroom at Rau-
schers was the spot for many
Of the gay parties Of that era.
Receiving Line
The hosts and Miss Alfaro
formed the receiving line. After
greeting them, guests went on
to dance to the music OF Sid
ney and his orchestra.
Miss Alfaro is a graduate Of
Holton Arms and now is at
tending Bennett Junior Col

singing and ice skating.
The petite brunette, who has
hazel eyes, wore a dress OF

of orchids was very special

is sypridium but they are called

needless to say. Is a great

were peach-colored orchids.
