DR.. Leonard Carmichael,
inspired by the presence of
Chief Of Naval Operations
Arleigh Burke, told the story
about the bishop and the
admiral who died and went
to heaven at the same time.
The admiral got a huge well
come from st. Peter himself
and a host of angels-he was,
you might say. piped aboard
whereas the bishop was
uncere m o n i o usly shown
through a side door. He was
outraged until St. Peter ex-
planned, I'VE get a bishop
up here every day but this is
the first. admiral we've seen
in so years."
Ambassador Beale's sup
posedly true election story
especially tickled his guests
who included Norwegian Am
baSSador and Mrs. Koht,
PakiStan Ambassador Aziz
Ahmed, and Undersecretary
Julian Baird.
1t was about Senator
Bourke Hickenlooper of Iowa
once running against a man
named Church who couldn't
seem to make a dent in Hick-
enlooper's popularity. Finally
he asked a farmer one day
why he was for Hickenlooper
instead of for him. Be

his opponent. II go to church
every Sunday"
But" said the farmer,
"Hickenlooper is truly a God
fearing, praying man. When
he crashed on the water and
was lost at sea on a raft, he
prayed and prayed for water
and God sent rain. And
then he prayed and prayed
for food and God sent a bird,
and then he prayed and
prayed that he and his
friends would be saved, and
they were all rescued"
That was Rickenbacker
who crashed and was res
cued," said Church. THAT
wasn't Hickenlooper."
Well" said the farmer,
"Rickenlooper or Hicken-
hacker, it doesn't make any
difference. He's a God-fear-
ing, praying man and I'm
going to vote for him."
Ambassador Beale, whose
wife has already gone to

THE PHILIP CORES gave
a dance at the Sulgrave Club
the other night to celebrate
their 25th wedding anniver-
Sary. and it turned out to be
one of the peppier parties.
Sidney and his relocated
orchestra kept the ballroom
humming until the wee hours,
the champagne flowed, and a
huge supper was served after
midnight. There was bouillon,
scrambled eggs. bacon, lobster
Newburg. salad, etc.
Assistant Secretary of State
and Mrs. Lewis Jones were
there, Lewis Waiting like a

luncheon, originally scheduled
for Friday. December 2. has
been reset as Monday, Deem
Der 5, same time-cocktails
at IL, luncheon at 1880
same place - the Willard
Hotel.
Reason for the change is
that the next Presidential
Press Secretary got his
dates mixed. He's due in
New York on the I'd to ap-
pear on a post-mortem pro-
gram with Vice President
Nixon's Press Secretary Herb
Klein.
There's another change in
the Salinger luncheon which
is being given by the Women's
National Press Club. 1t has
now been opened to all mem
bers of the working press.
At first. the only newsmen
who could attend were those
invited by members. But now
we generous girl reporters
have magnanimously offered
to share the honor guest with
boy reporters. The trou-
BILE with us is that we like
the company of males so
much. we are willing to ruin
a perfectly good feud.

raconteur's dinner the other
evening. 1t wasn't necessar-

when the host raped on his

to tell a story to all his
guests, the entire table at
once became an audience for
him and those who followed
him.

The first debutante of the
new season made her bow
yesterday. Elizabeth Domi-
nick, daughter of the Theo-
dore Dominicks and a fresh
man at Wheaton College in
Massachusetts,, was intro
duced to her parents friends
at a tea dance at the Sui
grave Club.
Thanksgiving is a good
day for a debut tea even if
the food is hardly touched
and everyone seems to move.
with a slightly slower gait
from midday gorging.
The good looking debut
tante wore a short dress with
bell skirt of eggshell taffeta
and bodice of silver and pale
green brocade. Blending with
it artiStically was her bou-
quet of bells of Ireland and
pale green spider NUNS. Mrs.
Dominick's curly red hair
was set of by her toast
colored lace dress.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hugh D.
AuchinclosS went down the
line. having come in from
Merrywood where they had
such friends as Kay and Ed
win Graves to Thanksgiving
dinner. Janet was wearing a
deep blue wool ensemble with
a tall brown mink hat CEN
tered on the top of the
crown with white mink.
APROPOS OF THE
STORIES about Merrywood
being for sale and her daugh-
ter Jackie Kennedy's George
town house being for sale, she
expressed some surprise at
there being so much interest
in real estate.
The rumor that Jackie had
purchased the Oliver Iselins'
estate in Middleburg, was
denied by her mother, al
though it is understood that
young Mrs. Kennedy has been
approached regarding this
property. Friends of the Ise-
Inns say that they are con-
sidering selling because Mr..
Iselin has been in bad health.
Like the PreSident-elect,
who left his wife last evening
for sun-kissed Florida, Mrs.
AuchinclosS had no idea that
her daughter would be de-
livered of a child within a
few hours.
Assistant Secretary of
State and Mrs. Gerard Smith
were there and said her
sister and bridegroom, the
John McClureS, had returned
from their Mexican honey
moon Wednesday night.
MRS. DUNCAN PHILLIPS
was chatting with DR.. C.
Leslie Glenn, Peruvian Am
bassador and Mrs. Bercke-
meyer were talking to Mrs.
Mitchell Gammell and her
daughter; John Graham was
