The' queen '.mother arrived aboard the liner Queen Eliza beth on Tuesday: October 28, This is not an official state visit, and she is staying in the com paratively informal residence of Sir Pierson Dixon, England's permanent delegate to the Unit ed Nations, until ' November 4 when she goes to Washington, d. c. - r : : ' The queen mother and her party, Including her private sec retary and two ladies-in-waiting, are occupying the 2nd floor of the Dixons three-story stone and brick home overlooking the Hudson river in nearby River dale. . . ,: But " even a queen's private visit is crammed with' public ap pearances and social functions.

Some 1,800 will eat with the queen mother in the main ballroom of the Waldorf Astoria, and an equal number will be seated in nearby dining rooms.. The same overflow setup help ed solve the seating problem of the English Speaking Union, which is giving the most formal of all the dinner parties during the queen mother's' visit. "This is going to be the most glittering social event of the win ter," a staff member at the union said proudly. The $25-a-plate dinner is a "with decorations" affair, which means men wear their medals and women wear their fanciest dresses.
