In this town of jaded party
goers one can no longer use
the tired old formula of the 6
to 8 cocktail party - often
dignified by calling it a recep-
ton.
Embassies-cognizant of the
color and glamour of their own
countries-have in the past
year been leaders in getting
away from the monotonous
cocktail circuit.
More and more their parties
have featured dancing and
singing and costumes of their
native countries. And now,
despite the mass exodus from
Washington, several embassies
are offering marvellous treats
to their guests to celebrate
their national holidays.

temalan Marimba Band, is be-

This will take place in the
beautiful Aztec Garden Of the
Pan American Union.
At the Aztec Garden tonight,
the Ambassador of Guatemala
and Sonora de Cruz-Salazar
have invited guests for a con-
cert of Music of the Americas
by the Guatemalan Marimba
at 9 o'clock.
Next Sunday night the
Pakistan Embassy celebrates
Pakistan Day with a party
featuring, among other things,
a variety program. Top attrac-

the famous Pakistani who
talks to birds and animals in
their own languages!
Huge Invitations
Not to be outdone, the In
donesian Embassy has sent
out the largest invitations of
the year for their Independ-

of the exotic oriental dances
and music to be presented at
