y Modern Etiquette I By ROBERTA LEE o : ——o Q. Does the invitation to a church wedding request the “honour of your presence” or “the pleasure of your company?” A.

I have had several dates with a certain young man and think quite a lot of him. His birthday is approaching, and I am wondering if it would be proper for me to give him a gift? A. Properly, you should give this young man a gift only if you are engaged to him. Otherwise, a suitable card is the proper remembrance. Q. When I have borrowed a needle and thread from the attendant in a powder room, in order to make’some small repair, am I supposed to tip the attendant? A. Yes, this is expected. Q.

Socialite Enjoys Career In Acting Dina Merrill Dead Serious On Acting By GAY PAULEY UPI Women’s Editor NEW YORK (UPl)—Dina Merrill intends to show the world she was born with the acting spark in her makeup as well as the silver spoon in her mouth. “I’m dead serious; I’m not a quote socialite Unquote who is acting for kicks. It makes me angry when I’m accused of that,” said Miss Merrill, who doesn't need to act for money either. It terms of career, Dina (pronounced Deen-uh) Merrill migrated from modeling for slick fashion magazines to little theater to Broadway to television and finally to the movies, aided and abetted not only with that ambition for acting but also with a ptricin cting but also with a patrician beauty. She is tai, blonde and has, a stunning figure. Mother of Three In real life, she is the socialy prominent Mrs. Stanley Rumbough, Jr,, of New York, mother of two boys and a girl, ages five to 11. Her husband is president of a couple of manufacturing companies. w ’' f On her father’s side she is a Huttoh, a cousin of millionairess Barbara. Her mother is Mrs. Merriwetter Post May, Washington social leader, who has all those cereal company millions. “So that’s why. I changed my name for the stage,” she said. “It’s just like Gloria Vanderbilt says, producers never take us seriously. If anything, being what you call a socialite is a handicap, you have to work twice as hard. “Sdme columnist once wrote that if she wanted to, Dina Merrill could buy 20th Century Fox. That’s ridiculous. “I’ve wanted to be an actress, since. . .well, since I was in the first grade I guess. If I live to be 90 I’l stil feel the same way. No Committee Lady ‘Some of my set looks on me as an oddity, but I wasn’t cut out to be one of those committee lady types.” She added, however, that she does try to do “my share” of charity and welfare work, and is the fifth generation of the Rumbough family to serve on the board of the New York City Mission Society.
Wardrobe Problems For U. S. First Lady Different Outfit At Each Appearance By DAYTON MOORE United Press International OTTAWA (UPI) — Backstairs at the White House: The visit of President and Mrs. Eisenhower here was informal frpm a protocol standpoint. But it presented as many clothes problems for the First Lady as if it had been formal. To get her wardrobe ready for it, she passed qp a Fourth of July weekend with the President at their Gettysburg, Pa., farm and stayed at the White House. The White House refused to give out any advance information on the clothes that she brought with her. But on similar trips in the past, Mrs. Eisenhower generally has worn different clothes for each public or social appearance. That would have meant seven or eight ensembles for different luncheons, dinners, receptions and public apearances here in addition to travel outfits. p “Mulligan” Insires Editorial The President’s use of a “muligan” when he shot a 79 last week end on the Gettysburg. Pa„ golf course inspired the Washington Daily News to run an editorial. Its stated purpose was to straighten out confused "students of public affairs who are not versed in the intricate vocabulary of golf.” The editorial explained that in this case “mulligan” neither was the name of a stew nor “the name of a hero in the war against the black and tan.” Instead, it was—as any golfer, particularly duffer, public ffairs aside, knows—“is the term used for a second shot off the first tee when the player doesn’t like the looks of the first one.” Ike Tries Until Satisfied The editorial noted that some golf courses frown on mulligans or even forbid them “with signs oh the first tee as follows: ‘no mulligans’.” However, Eisenhower doesn’t go along. He comment-

But he played his second one, the true mulligan, despite the fact that his third drive was longer and straighter. Even before Presidential Aide Sherman Adams’ acceptance of gifts from millionaire industrialist Bernard Goldfine exploded into the headlines, some politicaßyminded members of the Eisenhower administration were concerned about a match book cover at the White House. Printed across it is; “White House staff mess.” Given to guests in the staff dining room in the west wing of the White House, the cover has cm cme side the presidential seal and a sketch of the south portico on the other side.
