Cummins Catherwood gave a dinner-dance in Palm Beach, they flew-in hometown Philadelphia music. Gerry Romig, Mike Carney and Rick Lewis jetted, down from the Quaker City for the party. The Catherwoods rented a house in the Florida resort for the season. And that's where the soiree was held on a breathlessly lovely April night. Pink was the motif pink tablecloths, pink candles.

Eight tables were set around the pool. Guests danced on the terrace between the bar and the orchestra. Mr. and Mrs. Van.

Horn Ely, Jr. were there. They have just returned to their Paoli home after vacationing at Hobe Sound. Mrs. Ely arrived at the Palm Beach party wearing the same style dress as the hostess.

But Betty Ely's gown was orange and white; Elgie Catherwood was blue and white. Mrs. George W. Blabon, 2d, of this city and Palm Beach, was there. Morton Downey was very much present.

Two princesses came. to. the party Princess Evangeline Zalstem-Zalessky and Princess Alexis (Kappy) Obolensky. Princess Zalstem-Zalessky (nee Evangeline Johnson) is the Johnson Johnson heiress who was once married to maestro Leopold Stokowski. When Kappy Obolensky was given a winter party by Eleanore Cernadis this season, Messrs.

Romig, Carney and Lewis also flew down to provide the music. Notables attend from here and there Getting back to the Catherwood party, Mary (Mrs. Stephen) Sanford graced the occasion. So did yachtsman Walter S. Gubelmann and Mrs.

Gubelmann, of Palm Beach and Oyster Bay. Mrs. Haskell Fleitas, of Wilmington, was there. Mr. and Mrs.

Paul L. Fentress arrived. Col. and Mrs. Leon Mandel, of Chicago, were at the party.

Former amateur tennis star Frank Shields flew in from New York. Earlier this month, Mrs. Catherwood air-shuttled from Florida to Nassau to compete in a backgammn tournament. Others in the tournament included Mrs. Carter Rush, of Newtown Square, Claude A.

Beer and his mother, Mrs. Walter C. Pew, of Bryn Mawr. Mrs. Pew attended the Catherwood dinner-dance in Palm Beach.

Claude jetted Europe to play more backgammon. The next international backgammon tournament will be in London next October. Mrs. Catherwood hopes to compete there. She did so last fall and later played in the Las Vegas backgammon tournament.

Luau with hula in Cadillac showroom On the same night, we went to a luau in a Cadillac showroom for the benefit of Abington Memorial Hospital and a midnight supper party in Bonwit Teller's main Philadelphia store to aid Moss Rehabilitation Hospital. We don't know whether this is boiling down to a trend, but we're sure that both affairs were smashing. The automobile showroom party was staged at Webb Cadillac, Jenkintown. Cars and caterers moved into the service station. The guests took over the showroom.

Abington Hospital supporters, on floor cushions, sat around low tables and ate an array of Polynesian-style dishes. Dinner was served buffet-style. Guests helped themselves to poi and pineapple chicken rather than Cadillacs. Some of them backed into the food line for seconds. Dealer Andrew Webb and his wife, Millie, welcomed guests.

So did June Fete vice chairman Mrs. Alvin A. Swensori, of Rydal, whose husband is a well-known Ford dealer. The Ford and Cadillac types dined and danced together without collision. Guests dressed for the islands.

Lord Taylor, which has a Jenkintown branch, staged an after-dinner fashion show featuring sleekly-styled bodies, some more or less stripped and others with extras. Party patrons included Abington Memorial Hospital Women's Board president Ethel Wynn (who grew up in a Cadillac family) and her husband, Dick. Mimi and Bert Latta were there. Abington Memorial Hospital's chief of staff Alfred S. Frobese and Mrs.

Frobese sat with Mr. and Mrs. George E. Kolb and the William G. Littletons, 2d.

When the fashion show was over, Cadillac showroom guests received free demonstrations in the hula. Dozens of couples got up to hula with the professionals. It was an automatic shift. Midnight party on Bonwit's third floor Subscribers trooped to 17th and Chestnut sts. for a midnight party on Bonwit Teller's third floor the dress salon, designer millinery, furs and bridal department.

The party was sponsored by the Moss Rehabilitation Hospital. It began with the movie, "Half a Sixpence," at Coutinued a Page 15, Column 1 tire evening In black cotton lace over beige with a ruffled collar and cuffs. Included in her party was, quite naturally, her dear husband, Martin Gabel, British actor Michael York and his wife and Jean and Bob Bach of the television and radio Bachs. Young Mrs. York looked especially fetching in a Jean Muir black dress with a plunging neckline that Mr.

Gabel, never at a loss for just the right word or any word, for that matter referred to as decadent looking. She almost never had a nicer compliment. Mrs. 'York was also wearing a gorgeous antique Indian necklace Jwhen people got around to noticing it. Husband Michael was.

very "in the wind" with long sideburns. George Grizzard had them, too, along with a mustache and Nehru jacket. Barsfia Baugh Is betrothed to By SUZY NEW YORK, April 27. After the tremendous private balls that the Pierre Schlum-bergers and the Antenor Pa-tinos will give in Portugal in early September, the Duke and Duchess de Cadaval (it's an old Portuguese title, friends) will continue the frolic Saturday night, Sept. 7, at a hippie party for about 400 beautiful people who'll still be hanging around Lisbon and Estoril with nothing to do over the weekend.

The hippie gala wil1 take place in a fabulous fish restaurant (well, it's different!) hanging over the cliffs in Caiscais. And the view is every bit as good as the fish, you'll be pleased to know. HAIR AND MONEY I'm sure you've seen the Duchess de Cadaval's pictures in the fashion magazines. She has a long sweep of dark blonde hair. The duke everyone calls him Jimmy has a long sweep of money.

It's going to be a regular little darling kaffee klatch when the Duchess of Windsor and the Marquesa de Portago go to the Greenhouse in Dallas together in early May for a two week' rest from the rigors of one spring party after another. Because now there are Princess Alexis (Kappy) Obolensky (left), former tennis star Frank Shields and Mrs. Catherwood are pictured at the resort party.

Still two veeks of pampering at a luxury spot like the Green house never hurt anyone thick or thin. A typical day starts with breakfast in bed at 8 and follows through with wake-up exercises, sauna and needle shower, water exercises, what they call "the beautiful facial," lunch (the food is absolutely delicious even though there isn't much of it), ease-tension exercise, 60-minute make-up (Charles of the Ritz) massage, hair styling hand and foot care, rest and dress for dinner at 7. You can omit any of the above and start the' day when you wish.

It's a natural for lampooning the entire Kennedy family as a political dynasy. The worls are sung to the tune of "This Land is Our Land." PLAYED AT RECEPTION The song was heard for the first time the other night when a copy was delivered to a small town Indiana hotel in time for Bobby Kennedy's sister in law, Joan to play it at a reception. Joan, who is the wife of Massachusetts Sen.

Edward (Ted) Kennedy, accompanied several hundred off-key supporters who were participating in what may turn out to be a musical highlight of the 1968 Presidential campaign. An NBC television camera crew put the moment on film to be shown Nationwide. PROVOCATIVE TITLE A woman who had knitted herself an ersatz white mink stole out of angora wool led the harmonizing. Mimeograph copies of the lyrics had been passed out to the crowd and were innocuous enough.
