SCUCLIETY. —_— THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTO D. C, FRIDAY, MAY 7, 1937. SOCIETY. By th eWay—-— T 1S difficult to write of anything gay and frivolous when the dreadful news of the Hindenburg disaster has cast the whole world into sorrow. The sheer, stark tragedy that has come to many through the loss of members of their families who were robably waving a welcome a moment vefore leaves us frozen with gorror. To them we extend our deepest sympathy and condolence, koK K % AJ. AND MRS. FRANK HEYWOOD of the British Embassy entertained at tea yesterday. Many of the guests wandered out into the delightful little garden which had been a “back yard” when the Heywoods rented the house. Now they have planted lilac hedges and pansy beds and flowering trees. What nice tenants to have! We saw in the garden H. E. the Turkish ambassadress, Mme. Ertegun, wife of the Turkish Ambassador; Senator and Mrs. Robert Bulkley and M. and Mme. Van Troostenburg de Bruyn of the Netherlands Legation. They are both delightful, young and attractive. Mr. Charles Lyon and Frank Heywood were reminiscing of days in Berne when Mr. Lyon was in our consular service. Tony Balasy of .the Hungarian Legation and Michal Budny of the Polish Embassy were chatting with Miss Olivia Stokes. Every one loves to go to the Frank Heywoods, for they always have a good time. * %k Xk X IMAGINE our surprise and delight to hear one of our great friends speaking over the air the other night from Spain! About a month ago Virginia Cowles, younger sister of Mary Cowles of Washington, went to Spain. Her difficulties getting into the country were “something.” However, we do not know all the details as she has had little or no time to write about her personal affairs since she is in Madrid in the role of a New York journalist. Unfor- 1tunately the static was bad so we missed quite a bit of the talk; however, we did hear that that afternoon a bomb had burst | some 15 feet away from Virginia and she described cowering in a | corner with two or three other souls, but as soon as the confusion was over they walked down the street as though nothing had happened. Apparently Virginia has been much impressed with ! the spirit and bravery of the Spanish people. | The 27th of this month Mary Cowles sets sail for Paris, where | she hopes to meet Virginia the first week in June. We may say that Mary is a little worried as to whether or not she and Virginia will ever meet, since it is no easy job to get out of Spain, but they are two very unusual and amazing young women and adventure is “their dish”—especially Virginia’s. From Paris they plan to go to Poland and Russia and we hope that the trip will bear fruit in the form of a book by Miss Cowles the younger, whose book on & previous trip should be off the press soon—knowing the plot of the story, we consider the title too perfect, namely, “Men Are So Friendly!” 5 5 * o ox % IVIR, DE SIBOUR announces that the required number of persons have subscribed to the Spring Supper Dances at the 1925 F Street Club and the first one is slated to take place this evening.

By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, May 7.—State Su- preme Court Justice Samuel I. Rosen- | man today denied the application of three burlesque theaters for a man- damus to direct Paul Moss, commis- sioner of licenses, to renew their licenses. The court said reports on “lewd, lascivious and obscene” performances, made at hearings last week, were not denied by any of the 14 burlesque producers in the city. Justice Rosenman said a reading of the record of commissioner Moss’ hearings disclosed there was no need for a jury trial to determine the case. The licenses expired at midnight April 30.
