Even though it was written as a farce and com edy lines are many, it still seemed too ridiculous in its development of the plot for the viewer to enter into the spirit of the presumably gay adventures. Jessica Tandy and Hugh Cronyn, that favorite husband tnd wife acting team, and Dorothy Stickney, tlso a tal ented actress, carried the leads with skill and zest, lut some how after chuckling over some funny bits of stage buskiess, and admiring the character Imperson ations, one had little U remem ber in fact, when asked 48 hours later how I liked the play, I had to stop nad deliberately call it to mind. Perhaps it may lolish up into a better production and per haps my reaction was not the universal one, but it was obvious that there wasn't any appreciable after-glow of enthusiasm in the lobby as the audience filed out Congressman and Mrs. Sam Coon, of the Eastern Orefon dis trict, entertained Friday tvening at a buffet for Mr. and Mrs. Ed Coon, of Spokane, in their apart ment looking out over Rock Creek Park. Some congressional peo ple from Washington, Cregon, and California, and friends of the couple from the home state and from the District here had in en joyable time for chatter. The Congressman's brother is a bank er in Spokane and he and his wife were here on a first visit to Washington. Among the Oregon group were Secretary and Mrs. Douglas McKay, two other Con gressional couples, the Hirris Ellsworths and the Walter Nor blads, Mr. and Mrs, Larry Smyth, P.E.O.

Special Spanish candy that one of the hostesses scurried around Washington to find was one of the tidbits on the buffet table when the Anerican Newspaper Women's Cluj entertained last week in honor of the Spanish Ambassador and the Countess of Motrico. The candy, a special favorite of the Ambassador, did not get rave notices from othe.s who sampled it as it seemed both too rich and too dry for Amer. ican tastes. But it added a fillip interest to the table, which among other things had two ham. a Smithfield and what I call a "western" type both prepared by xuwu xiuuae in ueorgeiown which did a delish job of, catering, Spanish and American flags and red roses and yellow daffodils representing the colors of Spain made the club house festive.

The countess topped her black taffeta cocktail dress with a ruby red, close fitting, hat that spar kled with sequins. The gown had a large moire collar and a brilliant pin at the belt line for further glit.er. The color of tulips by the score was a feature at the Neth erlands Embassy last week when Ambassador and Mme. van Roi jen entertained at a cocktail par ty. All shades, and especially long stemmed, the blooms from Holland bulbs provided a marvel ous flower show. Even the gay est of Easter hats faded in such surroundings.
