Polo Ball Last Night Boasted Distinguished Guests. In, the “wee small hours” of the morning a distinguished veteran of the ‘World War made his way back to his home at Fort Myer after attending the polo ball last evening in the ball room of the Willard Hotel. Long after the | last guest had left the ball room,| Hunter, the 19-year-old polo pony, who | was undoubtedly the “belle” of the ball, | was cantering back to the Army post, taking with him the sergeant who was his special escort at the party. Every inch the aristocrat of his kind, Hunter, the first to arrive at the gay dancing party, stood in his stall at the south end of the ball room and re- ceived the admiration and attention with a somewhat bored manner, his ful admirer who brought his sugar. Perhaps one of the most interested in the famous old horse in the feminine contingent last evening was Mrs. Wil- liam Jeffries Chewning, jr., formerly Miss Margo Couzens, daughter of Sena- tor and Mrs. James Couzens. One rarely sees the former Margo Couzens | without & horse in the background, and | even in a sky-blue net gown fashioned on the new long lines, with long white kid gloves and slippers to match her frock, the skilled equestrienne seemed D. C, TUESDAY, she was standing near the stall of Hunter, whom she frequently patted and talked to. The fete last evening drew the cur- tain on the ball season in the Cl?l‘ll, and though one of the smallest of dancing parties the ball was gay and interesting. The ball room was ar- ranged with the customary guard rails and the boxes had canopies held with standards from which flags of the va. rious branches of the service were fly: ing. d the boxes arranged on both sides of the ball room were Jap- anese lanterns, and over the boxes of the officials attending were hung the flag of that official or officer. The re- freshment “tent,” where pink punch was served, was in the center of the east side of the ball room and the bandstand was_at the south end adjoining the “stall” of Hunter. During the evening motion pictures of the international polo matches were shown. Secretary and Mrs. Hurley did not receive and in their stead the Assistant Secretary of War and Mrs. Frederick G. Payne were at the head of the line. They were assisted by the Assistant Secretary of War for Aviation and Mrs. F. Trubee Davison, the chief of naval operations and Mrs. Charles F. Hughes and the new deputy chief of staff, U. 8. A., and Mrs. Lytle Brown, Col.
