Among the pleasant, mild-“er-activities of the past week was the Tudor Hall Alumnae Association luncheon at Woodstock on Thursday. Mrs. Albert Lange presided at the speakers’ table which was gay with white peonies and greenery for Tudor colors. Miss 1. Hilda Stewart, principal, gave an interesting

talk but the program was

mainly carried by the graduating class. Emily "Weirich president of the - Student Government Council, called for reports. Among the alum--nae —T —saw: Mrs. Lorenz Schmidt, Mrs. Havens Kahlo, Mrs. Erwin Stout, Mrs. Hugh Carpenter and. Mrs. John Blish whose daughter, Barbara, was among the graduates Eriday night.

‘Bigger and Better’

THE EARLY part of the week is a maze of parties and attractive faces. Each year the “500” seems to draw more charming people and to gens erate bigger and better parties. Perhaps, almost a week later, it will be fun to try to sort them out. I remember especially the Speedway flags used for decoration in the hall at Roger Wolcott's last Sunday. His house guests were Mr. and Mrs. Parrish Fuller of Oakdale, La., and Mr, and Mrs. Sinclair Walbridge of Toledo, O. Beth womén received with! him—Mrs. Wal« bridge in a gray cotton frock with a finely pleated skirt and a pink cardigan over her shoulders. Mrs. Fuller was in navy lace with a flesh yoke. One of the most piquant of the out-of-towners was Mrs. Jake "Eline who, with her husband, was at the party with the Hathaway Simmons. . Her navy two-piece taffeta had touches of white pique and the blue taffeta petals that formed her hat were lined with pique,

Mrs. Johnson had a pretty snappy hat herself at her luncheon on Monday. It was a papier mache helmet from the Speedway withr a wreath of fresh field-flowers around the crown. That party, in spite of rain early in the morning, was an outdoor buffet affair with strolling .players to entertain the guests. The cars in the driveway provided entertainment; too. James Kimberly's bright réd Italian “Ferrari with its blue leather upholstery and webbing safety belt for the . driver frightened me just to to look at it. He had a red

Jaguar there, too, and Steve ™

Briggs’ green one was at the curb. The Elines were sporting an . old, very shiny AilfaRomeo. It was fun to see Cornelia Fairbanks Vaillancourt at the party. With her smart
