SOCIETY. *¥» B—3 Travel Fill Autumn Social Record in Capital By the Way— Beth Blaine 'AKEN all in all, yesterday was quite & dayl The gay season is really on its way, what with the 1925 F Street Club opened up and the Heigh-Ho in full swing for the Winter. * % % % TH! luncheon hour yesterday at the 1925 F Street Club was a gay and joyous aflair, as it was a homecoming for many of the members as well as the official opening of the club for the season. Best of all, it brought Mrs. James F. €urtis to Washington, as we hoped it would. Laura was her usual cheery and hospitable self, looking simply grand after the Summer spent at Roslyn, Long Island, She was dressed in a black dress and a most becoming black hat. At her table were the James Clement Dunns, browned and sunburned from their vacation in Honolulx—we agreed that Mary Dunn wears tweeds and suits better than any one we know. The Haroid Hintons also were being welcomed home, and Rose Merriam, looking splendid, s just back from her Summer at Newport, which she spent with her sister, Mrs. Woodbury Blair, At another table was Albert Dewey, who is In town opening the Massa« chusetts avenue house for his family. We are all waiting to see Gwendoline’s Winter wardrobe, for she has the most exquisite taste and her clothes are always the very last word. With Albert was Lady Lewis, who has just returned from a long, cool Summer in Maine, and Ed Reed, who has commutted almosy all Summer from his desk at the State Department to his family at Annapolis. Glimpsed in different groups were Pen Turner and Peter Van Horn, from New York; the Benjamin Thaws—Connie had become so enthralled with reading “Gone With the Wind” that she had finished the book at 6 in the morning and was slightly dazed as a result! Francis Rust also was there, in a smart gray costume and sables, and Connie Jordan, in a beautiful black wool dress and cape; the Kurt Hetzels and Mr. and Mrs. Marshall Eznicios and many others—and last but not least, Miss Mary Cummings greeting us at the door! * % ¥ % TANDING in a spot' light last evening, Pete Macias, proprietor of the Heigh-Ho, was the recipient of encouragement throughout his entire welcome speech, in the form of bouquets—and pennies thrown by the present element—all of whom were as glad to be there as he was to greet them. Packed to the very doors, inclusive of speeches and cameras it was a veritable opening that would have delighted the heart of Hollywood. Among those glimpsed there last night were blond and distinguished Audrey Campbell, accompanied by Mrs. Beach (both of these ladies wearing black frocks with appliqued designs of daisies) and Jimmy Mitchel and Billy Mitchel; nearby, Mr. and Mrs. Johnny Reyburn, the former Mary Lib MacArthur at whose table we glimpsed Frank Wolpert, jack Dove and Lucy Sharpe, who had on a frock of black taffeta and one of those adorable new evening bonnets of velvet. Jerry McDowell just couldn't make up her mind, and arrived twice | before she seitled down for a short stay, we noticed that Jerry, who is always the dernier cri, was wearing her usual bunch of flowers—according to ;lhe latest fashion—crowning her regal head, but this time they were | fresh flowers! ! In exclusive heights—that small balcony—an erclusive gather- ing was discovered, the young Johnny de Sibours, Valerie wearing a sports frock and a most becoming beret, which she never removed the entire evening. Margurile Hagner and Hope Jackson appeared both in short black dresses with small hats, each one escorted by a very tall Adomis. Audry Witford, whose new headdress 13 most be- coming, came in with Annabel Essary. An excellent dance team, Lunina and Lattanz, showed themselves masters in the intricate steps of the rumba and the passa dobbia, the latter met with a per= sistent encore. Woleott (“Doggie”) Waggaman, who was the architect for the Heigh- Ho's elaborate Italian interior, dropped in for a few minutes, joining Evelyn Gordon and some friends, and seemed to gaze with satisfaction | at the pristine freshness of the many banners, reminiscent of the carnivals of Siena, which he designed for mural adornment and which Pete Macias had cleaned and all spruced up to start the season in Imported Antelope. ..
