By HELEN WORDEN
NEW YORK, Jan. 18.—Mr. and Mrs. Edward Norvell are already consulting seed catalogs in preparation for spring planting. Last fail they bought a country home at Darien, Conn., and they are looking forward to having fresh vegetables and flowers from their own garden. “Our house is an old white frame farmhouse,” Mrs. Norvell, who is the former Miss Elizabeth Greer of Indianapolis, told me. In New York she and her husband live at 430 E. 57th St. They visited Mr. and Mrs. William E. Munk, Indianapolis, during the Christmas holidays. Mrs. Herbert Woollen of 3657 Spring Hollow Road, Indianapolis, a friend of Mrs. Norvell, arrived at the Park Lane Friday. She plans to be in New York several weeks. The highlight of her stay was Josef and Rosina Lhevinne’s concert at Carnegie Hall Saturday night. It marked their 40th anniversary as a married couple and as keyboard collaborators. a

Then she went on to explain that occasional fights succeeded in bringing their mutual grievances out into the open where they could be thrashed out. : Carnegie Hall at 57th St. and Sixth Ave., like the Metropolitan Opera House, is rich in tradition. Built in 1890, the huge red-brown

of Andrew Carnegie. Tchaikowsky came over from Europe to conduct the opening concert in May 1891. |On the program, which was pre-
New York and the Oratorio Society, was his Marche Solennelle. Andrew Carnegie and his family were, of course, in the audience as well as other brilliant figures.
History Aplenty Music history has been made in Carnegie. All the great musicians of the world, from Ysaye to Paderewski, have played in the old-fash-ioned, cream-walled hall.
The Philharmonic concerts have been held here for 47 years. The Oratorio Society of New York has given its Messiah and B Minor Mass at Carnegie as far back as I can remember, and the Boston Symphony has played here since 1893. The crimson velvet carpeted corridor which curves back of the boxes, is similar to the one circling the Diamond Horseshoe at the Metropolitan. But unlike the Metropolitan, Carnegie has photographs hanging on the walls of all the great artists who have played in the hall. Like the Metropolitan, Carnegie has studios on its upper floors. They're old-fashioned enough to have atmosphere. One of the most famous is the blue gauze hung dancing studio of Yeichi Nimura, the Japanese dancer. This was formerly the studio of Isidora Duncan.

2 U.S. Women Delegates Argue Results at Lima
WASHINGTON, Jan. 18 (U.P) .—w _ The two U. S. women delegates to the Conference of American Republics at Lima met at Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt's press conference yess terday and disagreed, politely, on almost every aspect of the conference about which they were quese : tioned by Mrs. Roosevelt and news= paperwomen.
Asked what Latin Americans . think about U. S. “imperialism,”
Mrs.. Burton Musser of Utah said =
that she found nothing but friendliness and that the talk about the “Collossus of the North,” which she used to hear among Latin Americans, had disappeared. Miss Kathryn Lewis, daughter and assistant to President John L. Lewis of the Congress of Industrial . Organizations, the other woman delegate, was npt so optimistic. The liberal classes in the various countries naturally gravitated toward her, she said, and among = many of them she found some re= - sentment toward the United States. . In some classes there is friendship : =i others a prejudice—Miss Lewis said. - Concerning the Lima “declaration on women’s rights,” Mrs. Musser was optimistic, asserting it would have an effect on public opinion in .- Latin American countries which do. not grant equal civil and political . rights to women. But Miss Lewis feared that the resolution would not have much effect upon the civil,
leconomic and political status of
women in the countries involved. Mrs. Roosevelt pointed out that, since it was only an expression of opinion, it could have no results unless legislation is initiated in the 21 republics to carry out the prine ciples expressed.
