The president of the P-TA

all community members to at
tend and is encouraging fifth

Nichols Entertain
Marie and Jack Nichols In
vited friends to their Congres
sional Parkway home on Janu
ary 27 for an evening of good
drink, good food and good mu
sic. The "6:30 p.m. on” party
was flavored with a touch of
gourmet cooking when the buf
fet was served and the featured
item was dolmathes, which
translated, means greek meat
balls. They consist of ground
lamb, rice, green onion tops,
mint leaves and melted butter,
mixed together, wrapped in
grape leaves and served with a
lemon sauce.
Dancing preceded and fol

tifully accomplished exhibition
of “old fashioned’’ ball room
dancing, their answer to the
“Twist” Others having fun at
the party included Mr. and Mrs.
Charles Paine, Mr. and Mrs.
Otto Haug, Sarah and Frank
Mackenzie. Hester and A1

Response
The following is a letter that
was written to Dorothy McCar
dle of the Washington Post, in
response to her recent article
"British Advance on the Hunt
Country.”
"The hounds in full cry. a
crisp sunny day, a fox stream
ing across an open field and a
fine, fit, mount are a combina
tion that is hard to match in
any language, any country or I
might inject, any state. Even
a foot-sore bystander will testi
fy that fox hunting is an unfor
gettable experience.
We all enjoyed your article
in this morning's “Post” en
titled "British Advance on the
Hunt Country,” particularly be
cause we ourselves follow the
chase and have a number of.
fine British folk in our Hunt.
Though fox hunting is an old |
and established sport, It has j
certainly been revived in the!

headlines by Mrs. Kennedy’s de- '
cided interest. I have enjoyed
several wonderful hunts with
the Virginia packs which you
mention in your article, but
wonder why you hestitate to
list the old and very fine pack
of hounds in Potomac, Md„
along with the ones on the other
side of the River. We enjoy
excellent hunt country, both
near Potomac, Md., and up
country in the scenic Seneca,
Md., area. Our pack of hounds
have been champions along the
Eastern coast for many years,
we hunt three days a week and
have a membership of approxi
mately 150 persons who actual
ly pursue the sport actively.
Lady Duncombe might like to
know something of our hunt,
also as it is considerably near
er Washington and does include
a number of her fellow country
men.
Tally ho!”
