Mrs. Beule Feted at Lunch;
White House VS.. Doll House
BY BETTY BEALE

Mrs. Howard Beale, wife of
the Australian Minister of
Supply and a delightful little
woman whom I am not at all
sure can claim as a relative,
was entertained at a luncheon
yesterday. Lady Spender, wife
of the Ambassador, invited 10
Washington friends to break
bread with her guest and as
far as any of the latter were
concerned. they would have
preferred it if she had turned
it into a houseparty for a
fortnight.
Without a doubt, the Aus.
tralian Embassy is the most
comfortable spot in Washing
ton. It's so beautifully air.
conditioned you never feel a
freezing draft on the feet
while slowly getting hot under
the collar. And its pastel in
terror suggests a h mony
unknown in the heat of the
madding business world.
Mrs. John Foster Dulles was
there in a handsome gray and
white print silk and white
straw hat, chatting about the
Geneva Conference. Inasmuch
as the wives of the American
English and French delegates
only met the other delegates
but never had a single meal
with them, why, she was asked
did their husbands want their
wives to go to the conference
Evening star., 1955-07-29

Look at what an impression
Mrs. Eisenhower'S personality
made on everyone" replied
Mrs. Dulles, and you could see
her point. Then she said that
Foreign Minister Macmillan
told her the British now think
it's very important for wives
to accompany top delegates to
overseas conferences, whereas
before they were more con-
cerned about not taking
pounds out of Britain. (Which
kinds of ponds, Mr.. Macmil-
LAMP
1t strikes yours truly that
if the Soviets had been sincere
about wanting to build inter-
national frien d S hip, they
would have taken their wives
along too.
The other ladies at the Aus
tralian luncheon were Mrs.
Arthur Radford in a green
and-black lace print dress.
Mrs. Heeney, wife of the
Canadian Ambassador; Mrs.
Victor Cooley, Cele McGhee,
beauteous in pink hat, pink
cotton dress and pink shoes:
Mrs. Gamboa, wife of the re-
tiring Philippine Counselor,
who leaves Tuesday to become
a professor at the University
of the Philippines; Monica
Jones and young Mrs. Peter
Spender.
They lunched off cold cream

BIZ MARY I. VAUGHAN

Escorts for the visiting $50
CAP cadets from % foreign
countries were given a leave
of absence from their charges
last night.
They were honor guests at
an annual party put on by
Maj. Gen. and Mrs. Lucas v.
Beau at their home. He is the
head of the Civil Air Patrol.
Typical of the honor guests
was Capt. Harry Thomberry
of Lima, Peru.
With that name, one could
expect a transplanted English
man. But the fact is he is
Spanish, third generation of q
North ireland Britisher who
went to Peru in the shipbuild-
ing business and settled there.
The captain was making his
first trip to this country and
today will herd his five PERU
Wan cadets to Lowry Air
Force Base, where they will
occupy the berths Of five YAM
kee CAP members now ex-
changing experiences in Peru.
To Tour Yellowstone
Then it's on to Salt Lake
City for a To-day tour to take
in the sights of Hoover Dam
and Yellowstone National
Park.
Capt. Thormberry's impress
sions of Washington just nat
urally include the muggy heat
wave.
Even the Cubans," he said
with astonishment, find it
hotter here than the tropics"
Among his charges Is Cadet
Jorge Moya, son of Gen. Car
los Moya, Chief of Staff of
the Peruvian Air Force, who is
in town on other matters.
The entire contingent, in
Guiding father and son, cele-
brated their country's national
day at the Peruvian Embassy
before coming on to the party.
Gen. and Mrs. Carl Spaatz,
who have a standing invita-
ton to the Beaus' annual CAP
whing- ding, left midway to re-
turn to their aforementioned
living room.
Gen. Spaatz wouldn't reveal
the topic of deep conversation
he engaged in with another
guest, Undersecretary of the
Air Force Roger Lewis.
Just back from the Poconos,
Mrs. Spaatz recalled with
pleasure their meeting with
this. country's leading woman
pilot, Jacqueline Cochran. in
Paris.
Jackie was on the eve of her
departure to Africa when she
gave a party for the Jimmy
Doolittles, which Mrs. Spaatz
described as "the finest"
Guests in the Beaus' fairly
new residence on Upton street
were spared the flash rain that
poured down in other areas.
It hit an earlier Georgetown
party attended by Edgar Morris
and his sister Mary. who, how
ever. said they escaped the
bucketfuls in time.
Attaches Are Guests
Other guests at the CAP
party included air attaches
from all the CAP cadet coun-
tries represented. Many of the
ambassadors were invited but
were unable to be present per-
sonally, and sent their minis
ters.
Air Attaches there included

those Of Belgium, Brazil, Chile,
Cuba, Israel, Italy, The Neither
lands. Norway. Portugal, Peru,
Sweden and Turkey.
British Ambassador Sir Roger
Makins came by for q short
time. and the French Ambas-
sador sent his minister with
personal regrets for his abb
Sence.
Rumors were rampant at the
party that Gen. Beau would
come up for retirement in Au-
gust. Likely successor, the
whispers revealed. would be
Mai. Gen. Walter r. Aggee,
another guest who wasn't
talking. Neither is Gen. Beau,
who acknowledged, however.
he is eligible to go next month.
The amiable Beaus are re-
decorating theiA new house.
and with the paint sticky-dry
in the foyer, they blocked off
the doors with attractive e
screens.
His magnificent gun collec-
ton, displayed in the library
of their former home, is now
packed away in the basement
awaiting the end of redeco-
ration.
Still others present were
Maj. Gen. and Mrs. j. A. San
ford, Maj. Gen. and Mrs. N.
B. Harbold and Brig. Gen. and
Mrs. r. H. Carmichael. Gen.
Carmichael, an up and coming
addition to Air Force gen.
eralships. is a tall. handsome
man who directs personnel
for procurement and train
ing.
Flyer Blanche Noyes, look
ing chic, and pretty in a black
linen sheath with white col
lar, said she got her beautiful
tan in Florida and Havana
while acting as chief Judge in
the sixth (all woman) Inter-
national Air Race that wound
I'D in Havana.
Guests at the party enjoyed
a delicious and varied buffet,
set up on the Beaus' outdoor
patio, canopied against the
weather. Many wandered of
on the lawn overlooking huge
trees with a cool forest-like
atmosphere. where flags of the
CAP participating cadet ma
tions were set up in a formal
row.

the next two or three years, but
it is certainly worth while to have
80 percent protection for our chill
dren while the vaccine is being
improved.
Dr. Cohen explained thta the
recommended course" of vaccin-
alton was three shots, the first
two one month apart and the last
six to seven months later. How
ever he felt that while the tim
ing of the shots for our children,
the first in April and the second
in September, was not ideal, it
was nevertheless effective. IF the
third shot, which is the reEpon-
sibility of the parents, is given
this spring, the children should
have immunity for year or two.
The duration of the immunity
has not yet been established, and
it may be nesessary to follow
the original vaccinations by
booster shots at regular inter
walls.
A question was raised about
the possibility of the community
swimming pool increasing the
hazard of polio. DR.. Cohen an
swered that it was felt that in
normal (non-epedemic) year, use
of the pool would not be danger
Gus.
He pointed out that the polio
virus can be passed in many ways
and that excessive fatigue,
crowds and chills which are con-
ducive to the infection are pos
sible at pool, but that the clos
ing of a community pool is the
responsibility of local health of
ficers and depends on the extent
of the disease in any one year.
