the G. o. p. conclave as the
plushiest political convention
Of this year:
Mrs. Leonard Halls Sunday

Richard Nixon at the Mark
Hopkins drew some 700 or
more ella borately gowned
women delegates. alternates
and wives of officials. For
members of the press fresh in
from the Democratic pow-wow
in Chicago, it was impossible
to believe that they were at
tending a political convention
party. 1t looked exactly like
an embassy reception in
Washington minus the male
contingent.
Four out of five women who
went down the receiving line
were draped in mink-natural
mink, ranch mink, silver blue
mink. Their hats were the last
word from the small red velvet
ones of Mrs. William Know
land and Mrs. Katherine
Howard to the huge millinery
creations worn by Hedda
Hopper and Cobina Wright.
HOLLYWOOD Influence
Oddly enough, photographers
fell all over themselves taking
pictures of Hedda and Cobina,
whereas not a lens was focused
when Mrs. Sherman Adams,
wife of the second most power
full man in the country, went
through the line. You could
tell we were in the vicinity of
Hollywood.
For an hour and a half,
cameramen and reporters
waited in vain by the receiving
line for the arrival of Mrs.
Harold Stassen. The Nixon
Stassen conflict is the only
story out here, so it has to be
observed at every angle
socially and otherwise.
When Mrs. Stassen APP
peared, she said hello to Pat
and Pat said Hello to her and
they both smiled. and the
photographers didn't even
know who the little woman
was in a black suit and black
hat.
No Comment On Herter
Mrs. Stassen pleasantly re-
fused to answer any questions
about her husbands campaign
for Gov. Herter, said she had
not seen either Gov. or Mrs.
Herter so far.

There are all kinds of ideas as to
what to do on a rainy night in
Rio, but an American will hand
over couple of quid (about five
dollars if you can tell him
what to do on a Sunday in Mel

thing stops, including the Olym-

Itheaters open, no newsstands. no

And for the most part, that's
quite all right with the Austral-
Iians. The Aussies love sports.
And the long week end (the
stores close at noon Saturdays
gives them the perfect oppor-
tunity to head for the beaches,
the coast. or the outback and
practice their favorite pastime,
