Newman of this city. —Harris-Ewing Photo. In Capital Letters My Dear: You better come back to Washington to cool off!! How I laughed (although maybe with just a trace of jealousy underneath) when I read in the papers of New England's heat wave this week, with your ther mometers in the 90s. while we have been complaining of the warmth of the 80s down here. But even that has seemed plenty hot—especially when com bined with the hot music of Glenn Miller's Orchestra. They came here for three days last week, and had the jazz fiends going crazy. He was wonderful—you'd have loved it. And it certainly caused a lot of mad dashings between the club and the stadium. But only Sam Sterrett stayed loyal to Glenn Thursday night, when dancing at Chevy Chase lured Mary and Margo Mink. Ann Buchanan, Ellen White and the younger set in general. Ann Heard and another Foxcroft lovely preferred dancing at the Shoreham, however. And down to the Water Gate concert went Bambie McKenna, the Thacher Winslows and the Metcalfe Wallings. <Who says there is nothing doing in Washington? Take your choice of evening activities , . . something for every one!!!) And by the day there is always tennis. The Sanger's tournament has just begun, and is the subject of much conversation and speculation. Bill Breese and Lucius Wilmerding and Cuthbert Train and Creighton Peet are probably the two most powerful combinations, although they may encounter some real opposition at that. Dick Sanger is playing with Waldron Faulkner, and among others entered are Steve Morris, Charlie Agle. Larry Knapp and Fred Merrill. Marion herself is leaving fairly soon for a vacation in the west, so the finals will not be played out until she returns, probably about the first of September. Dick is work ing in Expoit Control—and says it is fascinating. And I hear that their baby daughter is too cunning for words. Katherine Hiss is also going off for a vacation in August. She and her sister have taken a house in Dorset for the month, but Donny is much too busy as assistant to Dean Acheson in the State Department to go along with them. Also departmg soon are Joe and Ella Cotton—since Ella has taken for the month of August the house on Cape Cod which Dora Spencer had for July. Joe and Ella have gone up to this same house on previous summers, but I wonder that they are going back this year, since they were so pleased with the lovely place they bought this year on the Eastern Shore. .. . Lest you begm to think that every one is leaving, let me hasten to tell you of some who have just returned to Washington! Peter Belin and his wife. Mary Cootes Belin. have just completed the most wonderful trip. They flew from here to Mexico City, stayed there long enough to do up the town and to visit Taxco. then flew on to Guatemala for four or five days and continued on to Panama for a few more days, then home by way of Miami, still by airplane. . . . Just any one of those places sounds divine—but imagine going to them all—all in one trip. too. This won t sound like Washington if it doesn't include some new comers. So. to make it seem familiar. I shall take for my case in point this week Mr. and Mrs. John W. Auchincloss. bride and bridegroom, who have just come down from New York. He is here working for Thomas K. Finletter_you remember meeting Mrs. Finletter—Walter Damrosch s daughter? I believe he 'John Auchincloss. I mean> is related to Hugh Auchincloss, but I don's know just how closely. Anyhow, they have taken the house that Arthur Vandenberg had—over on Twenty-eighth street, near the Bonsai s house And another newcomer—more specifically, an out-of-town cousin, is to be guest of honor at a dinner Grant Wilmer is giving on Saturday night at Chevy. Some of your best friends will be out there—Nancy Mayo and Claire Snow, for Instance, and Mary Acheson. . . . And lots and lots of r;«.^BSz Rusts Return To Fairfax From 1 Beach Vacation FAIRFAX, Va., July 26—Former State Senator and Mrs. John War wick Rust, their youngest daughter,1 Miss Anne Hooe Rust, and their son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. John H.
