Planners Announce Four
Balls for Inauguration
i BY PATRICA WIGGINS
j United Press Correspondent
I Washington (U.R) President
: Eisenhower has taken a person
al interest this year in the ladies'
; favorite inauguration festivity
the Inaungural Ball.
! It was on his "specific re
; quest" that planners for the Jan.
1 21, event have planned "co
; equal" balls in four locations
i three hotels and the National
Guard Armory to ease the jam
! packed crush remembered all too
well by President Eisenhower, at
the last inauguration.
But despite Mr. Eisenhower's
intervention, there still is doubt
in some quarters as to whether
i the move will save formal gowns
I from crushing: protect lightly
j clad toes from tromping; or free
I ball floors for dancing instead of
! elbow-to-elbow standing.
I Ever since the first ball in
1309, when Dolly Madison tap
! ped her toes to gavottes and min-
utes, inaugural committees have
! had difficulty in keeping attend
ance within bounds.
$12 A Head
i There reportedly was just as
much trouble keeping that 1809
j ball down to 400 party-goers
'at $4 a head as there was in

trying, unsuccessfully, to keep
attendance at the 1953 ball down
to 15,000 at S12 a head.
Other obstacles have given the
fair sex trouble through the
years at the fancy dress events.
A blizzard came to town along
witn tne celebrants oi uranis
second inaugural, and accounts
of that ball relate that "ladies
who braved the weather ignored
all vanities and appeared in the
warmest wrappings they possess
ed." They kept their wraps on,
incidentally, even on the dance
floor.
The threat of civil war at Mr.
j Lincoln's first inaugural report
edly dampened the spirits of
"even the gay butterflies of a
Washington season" for the ball
that followed the sweariryj-in.
In 1913, the ladies had no ball
to enjoy and one report indicates
it was his wife and not President
Woodrow Wilson who called it
off. The report claimed that Mrs.
Wilson "could not bear the
thought of modern dancing at
her husband's inauguration."
Historic Gowns
But despite such difficulties,
the fair sex always has centered
planning around the premise
j that "the gown's the thing." The
First Lady's ball gown, besides
being the center of attention on
the gala night itself, also goes
down in history.
Showing all too well how
! fickle dame fashion is would be
parade of the First Ladies
! cowns from Dollv Midison's
buff-colored highwaisted velvet
ensemble to Mrs. Eisenhower's
1953 full-skirted pink peau de
soie, jewelled with 2,000 glitter
ing stones.
Mrs. William McKinley faint
ed at the 1897 Ball. And her
gown on display in the Smith
sonian Institution still shows a
black mark on the right side of
the white satin skirt which was
caused by her fall.
Mrs. William Howard Taft re
vived an Empire fashion at the
1909 ball. Her white silk chiffon
gown, with high waist and long,
clinging skirt, had been sent to
Tokyo to be emboridered in a
goldenrod pattern outlined by
silver thread and crystal beads.
