NEW YORK, SUNDAY, AUGUST 10, 1924. 3 Creation of New Colony On the Hills With Bathing Beach for Southampt Officers' Ball and Costume Dance Among Bar Harbor Events of Past Week (Special to The Eagle.)

Poe and Mrs. D. C. Godwin motored up from Newport and are at the St. Sauveur Hotei.

Lieutenant Commander Poe and Lieutenant Commander Godwin are stationed here on the U. S. S. Goff during tennis week. Mrs.

Godwin is a sister of Mrs. Izetta Jewell Brown, who seconded John W. Davis' nomination as candidate for the Presidency at the recent Democratic Convention. Mrs. Henry F.

Clarence Wadsworth has come up from New York and is at the Hotel Malvern for the remainder of the season. All Doors Opened to Tennis Players of Newport's Annual Invitation Tournament. (Special to The Eagle.) Newport, R. Aug. 9-The social lions of the coming week will be the young men who will take part in the annual invitation tennis tournament.

As a matter of fact, most of the luncheons, dinners and dances are especially arranged for them, and a general "open house" invitation will be posted on the bulletin board of the Casino. Tuesday evening there will be the Casino dance for the players. Earlier that same day Mrs. William Goadby Loew will give a luncheon for them. On Wednesday evening Mrs.

Charles L. F. Robinson will give a supper dance at Heartsease, her summer home on Kay and 011 that afternoon following the game Mrs. William Grosvenor will be hostess at luncheon. Thursday the Clambake Club announces a luncheon will be served, and that evening Mrs.

Paul Fitz Simons has honored the players with an invitation to come to Harbor View to dance. Mr. and Mrs. Stuart Duncan's dance at Bonniecrest will be one of the most elaborate functions their honor and will mark the close of festivities. Just how the summer colony expects these young men to lunch and dine sumptuously by day and to dance all night until the wee hours of the morning and at the same time wield a powerful racket is not explained.

Those who refuse to be intrigued by the flock of engraved cards which have preceded their visit and who heed not the siren call from the palaces of the Cliffs will have no mean advantage over their rivals. "Early to bed and early to rise" will not weave the magic spell which will attract silver cups and other trophies into the hands of the socially inclined. While the Press has settled to its own satisfaction an itinerary for His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, who will attend the International Polo Match as Lord Renfrew before going to Canada, Newporters are still skeptical. It may be that disappointment over the last promised visit a few years ago, when everything was put in readiness for him, is in large part responsible. People have been told he will arrive after the games and pay his farewell visit to the Queen Resort before starting for Canada.

They have even been assured that Belcourt would have the honor of housing him, but malgre tout, they ask, "Will the Prince come? Where will he stay?" Mr. Belmont says he does not know anything about the royal plans and that the conclusion that the Prince, a will hasty, stay at unfounded their one, Newport attached to the fact that the Belmont residence in Washington was used by him on the occasion of his former visit. Friends and many who are not friends of Mrs. Belmont suspect this clever chatelaine of deftly assisting in a number of little ways so as to allow the "plot to thicken' to her heart's content, that her coup may be all the more of a sensation when she is ready to announce it. Rumor has it also that the home of Harry Payne Whitney will be kept open two weeks longer, so that it may be at the command of the Prince and his suite.

Since Mr. Whitney keeps the Newport villa simply for the convenience of others, this conjecture has many followers. The Count and Countess Szechenyi, the latter Mr. Whitney's sister-inlaw, occupied it early in the summer, before they set sail for abroad, and now his daughter and son-11 law are in possession. Color is lent to the report owing to the fact that Mr.

Whitney is the father of international polo, the Prince's foremost interest in coming here. The days when Mrs. Oliver H. P. Belmont, Mrs.

Stuyvesant Fish and Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs were in "command" here socially were r'ecalled last Saturday evening by many who went the round of the two balls on that night, one given by Mr. and Mrs. Sylvanus Stokes at the Casino, and the other by Mr. and Mrs.

Robert Walton Goelet, at their summer home on the Cliffs. It was all of 20 years ago when the Baroness de Selliere and Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs elected to have balls on the same evening. Just who announced hers first is not recalled, but neither would give way and the consequence was that everybody who had been bidden to both and had accepted, ran between the two splendid functions and had a very gay though somewhat mixed evening. Last Saturday night it was a longer jump from the Casino to the Goelet villa, but in these days of swift automobiles it was made in even less than a minute by some, so if either host had been "checking up" he would hardly have missed any one of his company.

As it was, it was really a very joyful night. Just how such a contretemps should come. about in these days does not appear. Mr. Goelet is of the old line summer colonists and Mr.

Stokes one of the newcomers. So they may never have met, and may have little in common save a host of friends. Mr. Stokes, by the way, did his own decorating, transforming the Casino ballroom into an Egyptian tent. with yellow and red streamers.

It shut off the draft from the windows SO that the ballroom became rather uncomfortable, but it delighted the eye, and made for conversation. The last of Mr. and Mrs. Stokes' guests did not depart until the church bells were ringing for early mass Sunday morning. The home of Mr.

and Mrs. Goelet had been dark several hours. Mr. and Mrs. Columbus O'Donnell Iselin came up to Newport from Southampton for a few days this week and Tuesday evening they gave dinner at the Muenchinger-King cottage.

Miss Carlotta Havemeyer, the very pretty daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. O. Havemeyer had a coming out party at the Newport Country Club Friday evening.

There were 50 for dinner and for a small dance later. Miss Havemeyer, on her mother's side, is related to the Whiting family, long prominent socially here and in New York. William K. Vanderbilt dropped into Newport quite unexpectedly early in the week to say good -bye to his two daughters, the Misses Muriel and Consuelo Vanderbilt, before leaving on a long cruise on which he will study oceanography. He gave a luncheon for his daughters at Hill Top Inn, where he stayed during his visit here.

Miss Julia Berwind, who is now residing with her. brother, Edward J. Berwind, at "The Elms," has announced a dance for each Saturday evening during the rest of the season. It is a long time since this beautiful villa has been the scene of entertaining, and no 'doubt all will wish to join in these affairs. Many Long Islanders Join Colony at Hot Springs.

Work is in progress for the clearing of the land and of a large stretch of shore to be used as a bathing beach at this point. Both permanent and temporary residents will be invited to share in its privileges when it is completed. It is generally believed that the Countess Salm Von Hoogstraten, who left this week for the Tuxedo Park. estate of her father, Col. H.

H. Rogers, will not return to Southamp. ton this summer. The former Miss Millicent. Rogers has not found her stay particularly pleasant this season.

G. B. Dillingham, who motored from New York to attend the tennis matches at the Meadow Club, returned there yesterday. The dahlia gardens of James C. Parrish at the Shinnecock Hills tate, Heathermere, are frequently visited by lovers of flowers.

Edmund Vallet, the gardener, has acquired the title of "dahlia king" because of his skillful propagation of an infinite variety of new dahlias. At the recent flower show in Agawam Park, these dahlias drew the attention of many, their delicate color combinations calling forth generous praise. The gardens of the Parrish Art Museum present a strange appearance following their utilization as back drops for the recent benefit performances of the week. Albert Herter's landscape scenery still remains in the paneling in front of and over the stage. Tree stumps where beautiful old trees stood a week ago, unfortunately in such a position as to obstruct the view of the stage, are also reminders of this zenith week.

Brilliant parties in and about London every day and night for a week were part of the lavish entertainment provided by the British for the members of the American Bar Association, and Miss Lassie Honeyman, daughter of Robert B. Honeyman and Mrs. Honeyman, of this boro, as well as one of the most beautiful members, of this distinguished group of guests, had the distinctive privilege of attending all of these.

Kellogg. On Thursday of the same week their Majesties gave a garden party. King George and Queen Mary received under a gilded canopy, Queen Mary dressed in white and most cordial to her visitors.
