At 1:30 a.m. her husband, Hervé Alphand, 56, the French Ambassador to the U.S., disappeared into an elevator on his way to bed. By 3:30 a.m. the last guests had departed, and Nicole Alphand, surveying all the bereft buffet trays and empty champagne bottles, smiled. It had been a good party...

Mrs. Joseph P. Kennedy led the list at the French embassy, where Ambassador and Mme. Hervé Alphand served a magnificent buffet with champagne. Two Kennedy sisters, Pat and Jean, were among the diners at the Douglas Dillons. There was hot crab meat for 26 at the Paul Nitzes, beef stroganoff for 40 at the Angier Biddle Dukes, ham for 30 at the Averell Harrimans. At the most...
