Victoria League Ball - Before the Victoria League Ball at London's Dorchester this week, the secretary, Colonel E.G.H. Clarke, called the helpers and organisers together and gave the instruction, "synchronise. your watches" Then the ball went like a military operation, With Colonel Clarke's timetable covering three sheets of foolscap as the master plan. The order of events was detailed to the minute. "It was a bit of a sweat getting it worked out," said the _ colonel, "but with Royality present, there can be no hitches." Princess Alexandra certainly appreciated the thought, she was on the floor for nearly every dance, including a hectic Charleston with Mr. Robert Loder, and an even more hectic Respa with Lord O'Neill. June 7, 1955.
