SOCIETY IN WASHINGTON
BY FLORA G. ORR United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.—Washington’s crop of debutantes is getting organized for the season’s blooming. Among them will be a senatorial daughter, Miss Bina Day Deneen, daughter of Senator and Mrs. Charles S. Deneen of Illinois. Another one is from the cabinet — Miss Alice Brooks Davis, daughter of the Secretary of War and Mrs. Dwight F. Davis. Mrs. Davis and her daughter have been in Europe all summer, and are just now returning, to join the Secretary when he returns from the Mississippi valley next week. Another interesting debutante is Miss Dora Catalani. She is the niece of the second counselor of the Italian embassey, and Mme, Catalani. Mme. Catalani is the daughter of Mrs. Henry F. Dimock, prominent social leader here. Hence it is Mrs. Dimock who is. in charge of the social career of Miss Dora Catalani, and the little Italian girl will make her home with Mrs. Dimock, and be introduced to society by one who knows every rope and piece of twine around the social ship. Most of the debs, complaining that everybody has bobbed hair, have started to let theirs grow, so that the most usual style of hairdress for a girl of this age, is a little bun at the back of the head. * • • Those who have had a close look at Mrs. Coolidge recently report that her hair has turned quite gray, but that it is very becoming. President Coolidge’s locks are not very thick, but they still remain a sandy color — almost red. * # * Mrs. Coolidge was in a box at the first event of the musical season here—“ The Beggar’s Opera.” Her guest was Mrs. Edward Gann, a sister of Senator Charles Curtis, who has just announced his candidacy sor # the presidency, is known around here as the fellow who opens up the Capitol in the morning, and locks it up at night when he gets through. He even keeps an eye on the menus of the Senate lunch room. * * * Official social life goes on apace. Mrs. A. A. Jones, wife of the senator from New Mexico, entertained this week in honor of Mrs. Thomas R. Marshall, widow of the former vice president, and Mrs. Atlee Pomerene, wife of the Government special prosecutor against Sinclair and Fall. * * * Mrs. Edwin T. Meredith, wife of the former secretary of agricultur under Wilson, entertained in honor of Mrs. Marshall, with a guest list which included Mrs. William Gibbs McAdoo, Mrs. William H. King, Mrs. Oscar Underwood, Mrs. Atlee Pomerene, and Mrs. Frank Mondell. * * * Called here to testify in the FallSinclair trial, former Representative Frank Mondell of Wyoming with Mrs. Mondell, is finding it a good opportunity for a visit with his daughter, Mrs. Alexander Gregg. Dorothy Mondell was married to Mr. Gregg, formerly chief counsel of the income tax unit, this summer in Wyoming. The Coolidges were present at the wedding. Mr. and Mrs. Gregg are still in Washington, but plan to move to New York City within a short time. * * * Miss Natalie Hammond, daughter of John Hays Hammond, is going to New York to study art. Suzette Dewey, who dashes around Washington in a green roadster, is not going to Poland immediately with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Dewey. Mr. Dewey, formerly assistant secretary of the treasury, is to be financial advisor to the Polish government. Suzette has decided to go to Chicago to visit friends for a month or two. Then she will go to New York, where she will stay for a time with Miss Helen Robinson. Miss Robinson is the daughter of the Assistant Secretary of the Navy and Mrs. Theodore Douglas Robinson. Then, on Jan. 1, both Miss Robinson and Miss Dewey will sail for Warsaw. • * * A distinguished Washington visitor the past week has been Senator Gulielmo M. Marconi, of Italy, inventor of the wireless telegraph. Marconi, here for the international radiotelegraphic conference, was accompanied by his bride, Donna Christina Marconi. Marconi declared that Americans had the best developed radio broadcasting system in the world. Entertainment fbr the Marconi’s was provided by Count Alberto Marchetti, Charge D’Affaires of the Italian embassy. The Italian Ambassodor and Donna Antionetta de Martino were in Italy, so could not do the honors. Marchetti gave a dinner, with the Hoovers, the Wilburs, and Secretary Mellon as guests to meet the Marconi’s. The next evening Marchetti was trailed by a motor cop, who declared the diplomat was going fifty miles an hour. Diplomatic immunity, when applied to speed laws and traffic regulations, is always very irritating to Washington policemen. * * * Mary Roberts Rinehart is not able this fall to take the active part in the social life of the capital as she has done for several seasons previously. Her health is far from good, her family says. Another member of Washington’s inner circles is still very ill in Paris—Mrs. Marshall Fled. Mrs. Albert Beveridge/widow of the former senator from Indiana, is with Mrs, Field.
