...lady crackled, "To hell with the money. I want my husband's jewels back." Since she scarcely counts all her fives and dimes, Woolworth Heiress Barbara Mutton, 53, could afford to be cavalier about the cash. Anyway, the thieves who broke into her $1,500,000 mansion near Cuernavaca, Mexico, took only $20,240-and most of that was in traveler's checks.

...beamed the pretty young thing, "I'm Mowena Glunch." Well, she wasn't, of course. She was Inez Chapin Mutton, 18, and she was one of 98 white-gowned young ladies being presented to society at the Debutante Cotillion and Christmas Ball at Manhattan's WaldorfAstoria. The very In thing this year was to introduce yourself to the postdebs and Ivy Leaguers trudging down the reception line as another girl entirely, so everybody had the most awful time sorting out Elizabeth Funston, 18, Virginia Guest, 18, Jocelyn Kress, 18, and Fernanda Kellogg, 18. But then the ritual...
