Paris Conversation
Paris is talking about: how
President Eisenhower lent
General Gruenther his own
scarlet ribbon OF the Legion
d'Honneur when the Red
Cross new president mis!aid
his and was due to appear as
guest of honor at a Franco
American Society dinnet.
Whether it's true or not,
Frenchmen are getting a thrill
telling it. They're laughing at
the Greek who heard Channel
Number Five for Paris"
broadcast at London Airport
and thought it was a plug
for Chanel Number Five OF
Paris. The other day Roger
Fare who makes the most
glamourous of French gloves
was told that French Day is
about TO be celebrated in
Dallas. Fare, who's made
several trips to Dallas to collect
Neiman Marcus awards, re-
flected fondly on these men,
cries and sighed, All yes. l

: The portrait of himself by
James Gum that the Duke of
Windsor gave his duchess last
year for their wedding ami
versary is not to be exhibited
at the summer show of the
Royal Academy as the artist
had hoped. 1t is said to be one
of his finest works. The Duke
is nearly as proud of it for it
shows him in the garter robes
he wore when he was made
a knight of that order at six
teen. These robes, which had
been in his family for century,
fitted him then and they fit
HIM today at the age OF 50.
Both the WindSors have mas
tered the famous French art
OF eating ones cake and having
it too. If the Duke is slightly
less gourmet than the
Duchess his food preferences
are probably higher in calories.
Food Chez Windsor is of major
Importance and yet both are,
as the French say, slim as
bicycles" Recently the Ouch
ess gave a series of interviews
to the British couple who call
themselves Bon Viveur." It's
a series which carries in bold
type World Copyright. Re-
production in whole or part
forbidden" so what she told
them about food can't be
quoted here. But what she
telling her friends about Bon
Viyeur' can be and it may
be news to Bon Vlver. This
team quoted Her Grace directly
with the word home in
place the Duchess, ~" If
there ever was one. would only
have used the word house or
"at home" She can't remember
which she said, house" or "at
home" but she knows she
didn't say home the way Bon
Viveur says she did.
The English And Food
In England a general spread
OF food sophistication is being
noticed in an increasing de-
mand for exotic delicacies.
Right here in France there
seems to be an even greater
demand in shops for delicacies
heretofore ordered in restau-
rants on special occasions,
usually seasonal at that. In
fact. so much more caviar is
being consumed that supplies
are way down. In all the land
there's only one-month sup
ply on hand and it's gone up
from $50 to $3.50 per pound!
In Paris they call Marilyn
Monroe Venus di Miller"
And the greatest guitar
playing sensation here is a
Jesuit priest, Father Anne
Duval. known as The Jazz
Priest. . Like the priest who
was high diving all over France
two years ago, Father Anne
turns all his income over to
his order. He has offers from
all over the world. including
the United States, but is watt
ing the orders decision as TO
whether or not he can accept.
Language is no problem for
him He sings in nine of
them.
