SOCIET Y. THE SUNDAY ST AR. WASHINGTON, 7 X €. FEBRUAR Virginia Society Stages Bicentennial Program With “The President’'s Levee™” Furnishing Theme for Brilliant Evening's Program at Willard Hotel. History's pages were turned backward Thursday night at the Willard Hotel, when George and Martha Washington, standing in the center of the large ball room, held a reception for members of Washington's cabinet, members of Con- gress, high ranking Army officers and other distinguished guests. The occa- sion was the Bicentennial Colonial Ball of the Society of Virginia of the Dis- trict of Columbia, the big feature of the evening being the pageant, “The Presi- dent's Levee,” staged and managed by Mrs. Lena Epperly MacDonald, queen of sponsors of the society. More than 1.200 people attended the ball, and the boxes were filled with distinguished guests. The huge ball Toom of the Willard was darkened for the pageant, a spot- light being directed on President and Lady Washington. Mr. I. C. Buchanan, standing over 6 feet tall and dressed in an authentic reproduction of one of Washington's costumes, was perfect in the part of the general, and Mrs. Richard A. Allen, famous for her interpretation of Martha Washington, was equally ef- fective. Out of the shadows into the light lane made by the spotlight same the figures of the past, interpreted by members of the society and friends, to | pay their respects to the first President | and his “First Lady of the Land.” Gor- | geously colored costumes of both men and women blended into one harmoni- ous, kaleidoscopic tone which contrasted with the more sedate uniforms of the military. As each couple marched down the ball room floor there were bursts of ap- plause, They walked to within & few | feet, of the President and Mrs. Wash- | ington, where Capt. Arthur Clarendon Smith, impersonating the President’s aide, introduced them. Following the conclusion of the reception there was a grand march, led by the President and Mrs. Washington, followed by all | the members of the pageant and later | augmented by dozens of couples present | in Colenial costumes. Immediately following the grand march, the Capital Society, Children of the American Revolution, gave a ®os- | tumed interpretation of the miduet. | The dance was staged under the @irec- tion of Mrs. Henry Fenno Ss&Wtelle.
