Their most recent, attended by 100 guests, filled the Henry-Carney home in Haverford. So big was the party, in terms of the size of the house, that guests ate their dinner upstairs as well as down. They sat on steps, chairs, on the living room rug. When Norm Henry and Mike Carney give a wall-to-wall people party, they invite friends and relatives of varying ages. Said Mr.

Henry (University of Virginia '61): "It make a party to have a mixture of good guy older people and younger people. It wouldn't be as much fun if we just asked friends our own -age. We're planning have another party in February." Norm Henry is a stockbroker with Butcher Sher-rerd. His parents, Mr. and Mrs.

The cooking was done by socially-registered Joseph J. Hill, of Villanova. Mr. Hill, who is a stockbroker, prepared beef Stroganoff "and kasha in incredible quantities. Mrs.

Hill (Libby) was there, but she didn't help in the kitchen. The Stroganoff and kasha were made according to the recipes of Alexandre A.

"Last year, the pot blew up," said Mike Carney the pot in which Joe Hill was cooking curried turkey.

"The pot exploded and cracked in half." "I'm glad we're not having any major blow-ups this time," said Norm Henry when the heat went off. A cjpie oi engineer-types went to the cellar to look into the matter and the heat was on again in a half hour. The party lasted until 3:30 A. M. Among those who lingered 'til the end: Mr.

Freeman gallery on Chestnut a pair of auction-goers approached Mrs. William H. Brown, of Rittenhouse Square, to congratulate her on acquiring "Girl Reading," by Jules Pascin. Said Mrs. Brown: "At the moment, I'm looking for my lost scarf." She seemed more concerned about finding the scarf than buying the paintings at auction.

EX-KING IN FLORIDA Former King Leopold of the Belgians and his stunning wife, the Princess Lilliane de Rethy, have been in Palm Beach staying with the Alfonso Fanjuls, one of the few Cuban couples who still have buckets of money. Leopold's and Lilliane's next stop is the Amazon jungles, where they'll tiptoe through the orchids and the snakes and the alligators or whatever. Somebody said it wouldn't be much different from Palm Beach in season. But he smiled when he said it. BURTONS ENTERTAIN The Burtons had a little cocktail do up at their apartment in the Regency Hotel, before they went West.

Liz wore a little black dress with a little white hood which she left hanging on her shoulders. (Her hair was. piled too high to get it on.) All their buddies came, 40 or 50 of them, including a chauffeur and maid who worked for them for years, Deborah Kerr and husband Peter Viertel, Joanne Woodward and Paul Newman, Robert Preston, Peter Glenville, Rebekah Harkness, IreneSha-raff, and a little fellow who bluffed his way in by swearing he was Richard Harris. He carried it off, too, until he met Richard Burton's steely eye and all was lost. They let him stay anyhow.

As someone said, he was probably a better actor than some of the people there. But he smiled when he said it. FUN IN ACAPULCO One hears that the only place in Acapulco during the Christmas holiday will be the Playa Mimosa, which swings all the way to Mexico City and back.

Somebody said that's all you need in Acapulco. But he smiled When he said it. Anyhow, Ursula Andress, Yves Vidal and Andre Olivier (he's Pierre Cardin's right hand man) have been visiting them. If that isn't a fun menage they'd better start all over.

GLASS-WALLED ROOM San Francisco architect Jay Flood, who is best-known for the magnificent residence he designed for Sun Valley developer William Janss, planned the McNamaras' house to take full advantage of the winter sun and light.

The living area, designed with glass walls with a 180-degree view of the distant mountains, occupies most of the floor space. There is a massive, lichen-covered fireplace of native stone that was quarried only a few miles from the property.

Mike Mansfield, of the Senate Majority leader, believes in ESP. She was in the tub late in the afternoon' recently when the maid knocked on the door to say her husband was calling. He had to call back. But by the time he did so, his wife already had read his mind. The Johnsons were summoning them to an impromptu, informal dinner." Mrs.

Mansfield figures it may be the first White House invitation in history received by mental telepathy.

Defense Secretary and Mrs. Robert S.

McNamara's spectacular new ski lodge jutting out of a mountaintop Colorado aspen grove 9000 feet in the air will be ready for a family vacation at Christmastime. The compact house, which Mrs. McNamara says is only about half as big as it looks in photographs, was designed as a year around retreat. OVERHANGS VILLAGE It overhangs the new village of Snowmass, adjacent to Aspen, where the McNamaras will have access to intellectual pursuits as well as the winter and summer sports they crave. They can ski from their doorstep under ideal snow con ditions much of the year.

"We decided it is the ideal place for us to build," says Mrs. McNamara. "There is the Aspen Music Festival in the summer. In the fall, the foliage is magnificent. All year round the wildflowers are unbelievably beautiful.

We will have tennis and swimming and a wilderness area where we can go out and walk for a couple of days when we get in the mood." SKI PACK TRIPS The mountain-climbing McNamaras are looking forward to introducing a new kind of outdoor wintertime activity to the area. They hope to get others to join them on skis for pack trips through the steep terrain.
