Names make news. Last week these names made this news:

Mrs. Robert Worth Bingham and her

Stepdaughter Henrietta stood with a cockney crowd outside Buckingham Palace to watch three royal coaches with scarlet-liveried footmen bring Col. Bingham and his staff to present Ambassadorial credentials to King George.

In Madrid, U. S. Ambassador Claude Gernade Bowers went to his first bullfight, held in honor of a gathering of European beauty queens. Afterwards he declared: "I was tremendously impressed . . . memories of spectacles in ancient Rome! I have never seen such color and tensity in a crowd. The action of the matadors was a most thrilling combination of beauty of physical rhythm with the danger of death. The placing of banderillas by special Portuguese horsemen was a beautiful exhibition.''

In Mexico City, Addie Bagley Daniels, wife of Ambassador Josephus Daniels,

attended a reception in her honor, declared : "If my voice could reach every woman in the U . S. I'd say. 'If you are planning a pleasant trip outside your country where it is cool and charming ard everyone is friendly I advise you to come to Mexico City.' "

A tugboat full of flags, U. S. residents, reporters and red roses met Ruth Bryan Owen's liner when she arrived in Copenhagen as first female U. S. Minister. Said she :

"My particular job will be to attempt to relieve economic relations between America and Denmark. ... I shall Into make relations much more intimate. No two peoples are so akin in outlook, thought and sentiment."

Jesse Isidor Straus, Manhattan department store tycoon (R. H. Macy & Co.), sailed for his post as Ambassador to France. Current among his friends at home became this cracker:

Straus: "Galeries Lafayette, we are here!"

France: "Macy beaucoup."

In a Yale Daily News interview, Juliana Cutting, New York society arbiter and impresario whose omniscient lists determine bachelor eligibility to most debutante parties, predicted "smaller parties, moderate drinking and better times had by all." Her formula for a successful party: "A boy and a half to a girl, if a dinner dance, and two to one if a supper dance, rather than three or four boys to a girl. The men would enjoy the dance more and would not have to 'drown their sorrows,' the girls would have more consistent dancing." Ended awesome Miss Cutting: "Tell the Yale young people that I am not such an ogress as I am said to be."

Voted "most likely to succeed" by Amherst's Senior class was Dwight Whitney Morrow Jr. His late father, who cast his own vote for Classmate Calvin Coolidge, was voted the same distinction by Amherst's Class of 1895.
