International Horse Show Pageant Also Promised With Exhibits of Army Skill. g HE Inter-American Horse Show and Exhibition to be held Oc- tober 22, 23, 24 and 25 at the Meadowbrook Horse Show grounds in Rock Creek, Md., is ex- pected to surpass in pageantry any horse show ever held in the Nation's Capital, and is attracting horse lovers from all over the country. In addi- tion to the main event, international military team jumping, in which the army teams of Mexico, Chile and the United States will compete, there is to be an inter-State civilian team Jjumping event in which only “quality” horses from Virginia, Maryland, the District and probably New York and Pennsylvania will be shown. The Vir- ginia entries for this event will be chosen following the Warrenton Horse Show today and tomorrow. Already the horse show grounds have taken on a festive air. Boxes are being erected, reserved seats in tiers s0 that spectators may have a clear view of the jumping arena and thou- sands of “bleacher” seats, every one desirable. Parking facilities are be- ing mapped put and a special am- plifier set up, one that will carry the news without noise. Yesterday the ticket office opened in the main lobby of the Munitions Building with a long line of pur- chasers. It is possible to secure tickets by driving up to the entrance, calling out “Inter-American Horse Show tickets” to the officer at the door, and pronto, they are delivered to you your car. Box reservations are pour- ing into Maj. Prank L. Whittaker, as- suring a representative gallery for this great sporting classic.

It was a most informal and genial affair, and a good time was had by all. Miss Jameson is one of those young ladies known as “The Semi nary Hill Girls,” for, with the Misses Barbara Donald, Rachel Camp- bell, Bettina Ripley, Sarah Jenkins and Elizabeth Morison—known better as “Toots"—she has spent the last two Summers in the old Brown-Serman house on Seminary Hill, on the grounds of the Episcopal High School in Alexandria. Needless to say her “house- mates” were present yesterday and ome would imagine each one Jeeling a little as though they were the mother of the bride, for they had the momentous job of making all the arrangements for the wedding. Others present were Miss Elsie Ekengren (her sister, Teenie, by the way, is in Kentucky doing frontier nursing work until the 1st of November), Miss Mary Cowles, whose sister, Virginia, is working like a beaver on a novel which will be out quite soon, and which promises to be definitely amusing, since, we gather, it is founded on fact! Virginia, we hope, will come down here soon to stay with Mary in her new flat in Georgetown, if she can tear herself away from the gay life of New York and Long Island led by the Charlie Paysons, Sonny Whitneys, Reed Vreelands, Dick Hall et al. Miss Elizabeth Sibley was there, too; she is the lovely daughter of the Harper Sibleys; also Mrs. Evatt Barnum, Walter White, Ed- ward Foley, legal director of the P. W. A.; William McComb, James Rowe, an attorney in the Department of Labor; John Goodyear, from Cooperstown, N. Y., who is down here studying for the foreign sery- ice; Laura Tuckerman, looking as usual very attractive dressed in black; Miss Barbara Wright, Manniz Walker and Mr. and Mrs. Evan Wilson. * ok ok x T IS with sincere regret that we realize that the long-rumored departure of Ivan Franghes of the Yugoslavia Legation is imminent within the next few weeks. Having been here for over six years, Ivan is really upset at the thought of leaving this great country. Upon investigation, we gleaned that he hates to leave the universal comfortable civilization which s ours, inclusive of our hygienic comforts, soft beds, radios and too many automoe biles—all ours without effort. However, Ivan's successor, Dr. Ratsho Petros vitch, will attempt to console the sorrowing feminine contingent who will always regret Ivan's departure. Dr. Petrovitch will live with Philip Broad of the British Embassy in the latter's attractive house on Courtland place, * % * W THAT dinner given the other night by Dr. Josef Nemecek, Charge d'Affaires of the Czechoslovakian Legation, for his confrere, Dr. Valdimir M. Palic, and his flancee, Miss Georgine zelenka, was a very delightful one. Miss Zalenka, who is & tall and attractive brunette, is an American of Czechoslovakian de- scent; her uncle is the well-known anthropologist, Dr. Hrdlicka of the Smithe sonian Institute. The wedding is scheduled for the 15th of October, and though Dr. Palie has been here only a short time, he has made many friends. The saying goes, “All roads lead to Rome,” but in the case of attractive ladies who come to Washington their roads lead to Neme- cek, known as Nemo. Mrs, John Bain of Toronto, Canada, who was Joycelyn Hibberd before her marriage several years ago, is in town for a short stay, and we encountered her at Nemo's festive board. Known as the “pale orchid beauty,” she is petite and blond with an alabaster skin. Joycelyn.was wearing an unusual frock combining Paul Poiret’s colors of scarlet and purple. Unfortunately, due to family tyranny, she must return soom, the “tyrant” being her adorable young daughter, aged 2, who is almost as large as her mother! Variety is the spice of life, hence the charm of Washington, for another of the guests present that night was the vivacious Baroness Gabrielle von | Salis of the Viennese branch, -but whose family's estates are now in Brno, | Czechoslovakia. Wearing no less than three gorgeous orchids, the baroness, | who resembles a jeunne fille Americane, with the charm of a European woman, plans to remain here some time. Visiting at Nantucket during the | Summer with Mr. and Mrs, Clarence Norment, jr, she has taken now an apartment Dext to theirs at the Wardman Park for the Winter. i - Celebrating Our 27th ANNIVERSARY with special values to mark the occasion!
