Vacation homes are closed and town houses are opened. European travel- ers return almost daily, the youngsters are hurried off to schools and colleges and plans for the late fall and early winter are begun in earnest. E Shuttle Meadow club is once more the scene of many gay parties, impromptu teas, luncheons and dinner gath- erings, bridge games and golf matches.
