For once Proxmire had

BARON SILvERCRUYS
gave his first and last big
party Of his entire IA year
tenure as Belgian Ambassador
when he entertained several
hundred at a reception for
King Baudouin. An old
school diplomat, Ambassador
Silvercruys always conducted
his party diplomacy at con-
versational luncheons' and
dinners.
incidentally, protocol was
the reason why no ambas-
sailors were invited to that
party for the King. but were
received separately at noon
the same day. A chief of
state on official visit must
always receive the foreign
chiefs of mission before he
receives the residents.
The reception for the resi-
dents was held at 1880 after
the Kings dinner for the
President, and it was thought
that it would make it too
late If the diplomats were
received first.
Curtsying to visiting roy
atty seems to be coming into
fashion. Not only did the
daughter of the Chief OF
Protocol do a low dip for his
Belgian majesty, but so did
the wife Of the Senate For
eign Relations Committee.
Asked why, Betty Full
bright said she didn't think
it made any difference one
way or the other. she just
thought it was nice to extend
to visitors the courtesies they
were used to.

card read: Its spring and

anytime between II am. and
2 pm. for a ladies' quick

The half that was mailed
back to the sender had three
little squares for checks. Be-
side them was written: Eyes.
I'd like to come. No, sorry I
can't. Perhaps, will let you
know later"
Ninety women came, picked
up a marvellous lunch from
the buffet and sat at what
ever table they chose with
friends. Some had to whip
in and out, others fingered,
nobody arrived at the same
time, so it was never crowded.
