Some . Notations . . .
By M.L.F. I
If a "coffee price war" that is, an
old fashioned price war operating on
the principle of supply and demand
should be about to erupt, you can bank
on it Salem would be right on the front
line, yes, even the very center for the
tart of such a war ... Of course in
these days of manipulated, subsidy-sup-
" ported economy it is doubtful such a
"war" would come . . . Anyway, war or
not, "battle of the coffees" is on here
. . . This form of entertainment so much
in vogue in Salem the past year reaches
a peak, a climax, or something next
week anyway a lot of coffee . . .
Several hostesses thinking It was to be
a quiet week decided it would be a
good time to give coffee parties . . .
Wham! Several hostesses got the same
idea at the same time, and so there are
coffee parties and coffee parties, start
ing Tuesday, especially Tuesday (there
are three that morning alone) . . . But
Salem hostesses are a good humored
group, and so those finding they all have
coffee parties slated at the same time are
Joking about It and making it a guess-
ing game as to "how guests are going to
work in the coffees during the allotted
hours
Visitors In our midst are a bit popeyed
(coffee-eyed) that is) at all the goings
on . . . One remarked that if she should
ever forget and address a letter to
"Coffee," Oregon, she knew the letter
would reach its destination . . .
Refill? Yea please, and we still take
it black , . ,
One of the most beautiful tea tables
seen in a long time was the one at
the garden party for which Mrs. Henry '
M. Hanzen and Mrs. John B. Johnson
entertained Friday afternoon in the
colorful Hanzen gardens to honor Mrs.
Dick Hackett, Jr., of Stockton, Calif., a
cousin of Mr. Johnson and a visitor
at the Johnson home this week. . . The
table, arranged by Mrs. Johnson, was
set on the terrace, up against the wall
. . . The cloth was a floor length white
one with a wide border with printed
clematis blooms on it. . . At one corner
was a basket of grapes, purple and green
ones with green pineapple foliage and a
large pink butterfly on top, lavender and '
purple clematis blooms tucked here and
there among the fruit. . . At one side
were two Venetian glass epergnes filled
with the clematis blooms. . . Frosted
grapes were in a crystal tiered dish in
the center. . . Some of the frosted grapes
were arranged .on the plates of cookies
and cakes, too. . . The punch table was
a round one set under an apple tree out
in the gardens. . . It was covered with
a frosted green organdy cloth, match
ing the green punch, and caught up here
and there with large ornamental butter- -flics.
. .

Robert E. Shinn, Mrs. K. H. Baldock,

Washington, D.C, August 17.
Dear Marian:
Major league baseball was something
I had not sampled prior to last week,
and what happened? The evening I
saw my first big league game was the
night of the fantastic score of 22 to 1
which New York poured on Washing
ton. The three ex-Oregonians with
whom I saw the game kept apologizing
for having given me such an introduc
tion but actually it was a riot of fun
to see how even a major league team
could fall to pieces in a game where the
first Washington pitcher lasted only a
third of an inning. Of course, the men
missed the strategy and excitement of
a clofely played game, such as the one
of the evening before our excursion to
Griffith Field, and we left In the sev
enth inning when the IS "to 0 score was
causing a' general exodus from the
stands. Some 20,000 people had jam
med the grandstand and bleachers that
night for the slaughter.
Mrs. Charles (Dorothy) ' Woodring,
secretary to Congressman Walter Nor
blad, Is keeping her Washington family
and friends posted on her European
trip. She fortunately finished her Paris
visit before tourists ran into difficulty
over the strike situation. A recent mes
sage from Switzerland reports that she
and her eight-year-old niece, Dorothy
Hogarth, were breakfasting on a bal
cony overlooking a beautiful lake, and
her niece's remark was "Aunt Dorothy,
This la Living." They are due home in
mid-September, following which Mrs.
Woodring will open the congressman's
office In Salem.
Senator Guy Cordon had a surprise
when he returned to Washington by
plane Saturday evening. At the airport
to greet him were David B. Simpson,
Portland, and Mr. and Mrs. Larry
Smylh. The senator had not advised
his office nor snyone in Washington of
his arrival time, but accidently Mr.
Simpson had learned in a telephone
conversation to Portland that the Sena
tor had left Saturday morning and the
trio guessed which plane It would be
and provided the Oregon welcome at
the airport. '
A recent arrival from Salem is Miss

BY ALENE (PEG) PHILLIPS
Ellen Van Arsdale, until recently a sec
retary at the Valley Motor company.
After some visiting in the midwest, Miss
Van Arsdale has established herself
here, having moved into the University
Women's club. By a coincidence an
other former Salemite aided her in find
ing a pot to stay, as Mlsa Leota Beall
had previously lived at the Club and
was able to suggest it as a possibility.
Miss BeaH's mother, Mrs. Ln T. Beall,
a long-time resident of Salem prior to
her departure for California, is now
with her daughter in Washington and
the two have an apartment near the
Dupont Plaza hotel, where Leota's of
fice is situated. She is in the office
of an architect-contractor. It is appro
priate that the ftealU should have chos
en Washington for their home,- as 10
generations of the Beall family have liv
ed in this area. Famous Dumbarton
Oaks was the former family home. Of
course, Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Kurti (Vir
ginia Beall) have been here for the sev
eral years since he left the Public Utili
ties commissioner's s'aff in Salem.
Miss Van Arsdale and Miss Beall
were my luncheon guests at the May
flower last week. ' Ellen and I both had
apartments at the Royal Court in Sa
lem and Leota and I were in the Sec
retary of State's office together, con
sequently, there was much chatter of
mutual friends. We are attending
"High Button Shoes" together with
Miss Grace Townsend this week. In
the production Is David Brooks, Port
land actor, who also had the lead in
"Brigadoon" at the Amphthcatre. On
the. night that scverBf-6'f us saw "Brigs
doon." the thunder storm held off until
the final five minutes of the production.
We slipped into the rain coats and slick
ers with which we had been "guessing"
the weather and as the curtains closed,
we scuttled to the car, and the deluge
followed. Fortunately, the outdoor
theatre has only had to cancel shows a
half a dozen times during the summer
but It is frequently a gamble as to
whether you will or you won't see the
end of the musical.
Sincerely,
PEG.
