Duke of York and Dancing.
Like many of us, the Duke of York dislikes a crowd (says a London writer). At a recent ball in London he was heard'to say to one of his partners, '•'This is just the kind of party I like; not too many people, and nice, slow' music.” All the old-fashioned waltzes were played at this dance, including the “Merry Widow” and the “Blue Danube.” Although the Duke and Duchess of York danced with every member of their party, they kept returning to dance with each other. The Duchess’ pale green satin frock only just touched the floor at the back, and had a, modified version of the low back line. Her curly brown hair was twisted into a knot, and on the little gold bag that she carried was the letter E - in diamonds.
