Society’s tennis enthusiats went to Lady Crosfield’s, where practically all the Wimbledon stars were playing or watching and where Miss Dorothy Round found herself overwhelmed with two sets of congratulations—the one on her great tennis victory and the other on her forthcoming marriage. It was interesting to hear the little note of hesitation in her voice when she was asked about going with the Wightman Cup team to America. One had the feeling that a very little more persuasion might have decided the issue in a different way. However, she is not go ing to the United States, and she seemed very pleased to describe her bridal gown of silver lame to the Wimbledon folk who were all agog to hear about it, and who were interested to find her wedding scheme a red, white, and blue affair. She is to be married to Dr Douglas Little this month, with Miss Mary Heeley as bridesmaid, and two small train-bear-ers. Miss Heeley’s dress will be blue; she will carry red roses, and the bride will have a bouquet of white blooms.
