The cocktail reception was held shortly before sundown in the gardens of pink and red geraniums and 10‐foot rose bushes of the exquisitely tiled stucco Bagh‐e Eram, a public palace. Invited were perhaps 600 courtiers, affluent Iranians, visiting Iranologists, scholars and the press—not the presidents, prime ministers, assorted royalty and highly placed commoners from 63 countries due here for the national celebration.

It was a very simple party, particularly in view of the partridge stuffed with foie gras and truffles Maxim's of Paris is preparing for Thursday's dinner honoring the heads of state.
