SO v Continuous Round of En With Climax Reac CIETY." tertainments in Program, hed in Opening of Junior Assembly Dance Season. v NEW YORK, December 3.—Al though there have been many enter- tainments given for debutantes since the opening of the opera ushered in New York's xocial season, this week has been the gayest of any, even more #0 than Thanksgiving week. There has been a continual round of enter- thinments, the activities reaching a elimax st night, with th~ first of the Junior Assembly dances at the Ritz Carlton, Next to her own formal coming-out party. the debutante looks forward to the assembly dances. which are for this vear's girls and those who came out last year, moré than any other #vent of the season. They are con- @uctea on the same old conservative lines as in former vears, beginning in the evening and ending about 1 o'clock, instead of at 3, 4 or 5 as in the case of most of the dances during the W ter. The list of subscribers, wh has been steadily increasing with e rear, is larger this season than e fore and the invitations have had " to be cut. In former years it was common for a young girl to bring her dinner guests to the dance resardless of whether they were members of the fssembly. The committee this year has asked the subscribers to discon- tinue this habit and have their din- ner guests confined to the members and the young man she invites. * ® X X Among those who gav dinners last night before the dance were: Mig. Le in R. Marshall, for her daughter, Mis Emma L. Marshall; Dr. and Mrs. «Frederick T. Van Beuren. for Jessica Van Beuren; Mr. and Mrs thur A. Ballantine, for ) Ballantine; Mrs. Willis D.

Riker, for her niece, Miss Virginia Schroeder. The committee In charge of the @ances is the same as in former years, and includes Mrs. Richard C. Colt, chairman; Mrs. Waltér Phelps Bliss, Mrs. Marshall Jewell Dodge, Mrs. James Gore King, Mrs. Herbert L. Sat- terlee, Mrs. De Lancey Kountze and Mrs. Harry T. Peters. A new departure in costumes will be ohe of the colorful features of the Russian ball, which 1s to take place at the Ritz-Carlton January 9. It is an- nounced that the men will don paper rb for the evening which, with the shung effects, will add to the beauty the ballroom scene. According to the present plan, the wper costumes will consist of long ussian coats and blouses, to be slipped on over the evening attire. These will be distributed at the door a8 the guests Arrive. The fad originated at the smart ball given at the Lido last Summer. % ¥ X X% It has been decided by Prince and Princess ' Serge Obolensky that the dance this year will be xiven as a bénefit for the Russiin Refugee Chil- dren’s Aid Society. The debutante committee, headed by Miss Romaine Bristow, will wear Rus- sian headdresses, as will also the en- t inment committee.
