Orchid-Bedecked. Last week as Charlie Wilson said his goodbyes, Washington realized something else: it was saying goodbye to a distinguished Defense Secretary. President Eisenhower wrote a warm "Dear Charlie" letter, took time out from the Little Rock crisis to show up briefly at a black-tie dinner given in Wilson's honor by Secretary Dulles. The three service Secretaries and Chiefs of the Air Force, Navy, Army and Marine Corps stood up beside Charlie at Fort Myer as jet bombers and fighters roared by in an honorary flyover.

While the Markevitch children presented Nadia with a $3,000 diamond bought by members of the Boulangerie the world over, the guests launched into an exuberant chorus composed for the occasion by Francis Poulenc. "Vive Nadia, the dear Nadia Boulanger, the very dear Nadia, Al-le-lu-jah!" Later, musicians performed another birthday tribute: a cantata by Composer Jean Françaix for five strings, five winds and six-handed piano. Over the bubbly, breakneck music ex-pupils chanted their praise of Nadia. One, made up to look like President René Coty of France, paid the Fourth Republic...
