Ronald Muller is ideally suited to the task of analyzing America's cur rent economic decline, not only because he happens to be professor of economics and international finance at American University in Washington, D.C., but also because he is a pragmatist whose advice and counsel is sought all over the world by government ministers, corpor ation heads and trade union leaders. A half dozen years ago he co-authored Global Reach: The Power of the Multi national Corporations, with Richard J. Barnet, Washington's other, perhaps only other, credible global economist.

Their son, Marine 2nd Lt. Rob Barrow, has just received his first assignment and will serve on board ship in the Mediterranean. The Barrows' twin daughters Barbara and Cathy are mar ried to Marine officers who were aides to their father when they met. Cathy's two-year-old toddler, Samuel Denham Turner, Jr., attired in tiny, full Marine dress for a New Year's Day reception at the Barrows' G Street, S.E., residence, may have made a start on continuing a third generation tradition.

For such large groups, we would have to." As she talks, her two-and-a-half year old granddaughter chortles happily in to the phone and Patricia Barrows con veys the feeling that contentment reaches all corners of her life. She has obviously taken to heart the national historic landmark home of the Commandants, the site of which was chosen by Thomas Jefferson as the Marine Barracks. "The house flows very nicely and we use all of it for enter taining our friends, including the sunny solarium," she says. At times, conver sation is the order of the evening. At others, "We ask for musicians from the Marine Band. It depends on the formal ity of the occasion and whether it's an official function." The house was refurbished under General and Mrs. Robert Cushman about 1970. Each Commandant's fami ly, Patricia Barrow explained, leaves its mark by donating gifts to the house. "Most of the ladies have acquired and collected Chinese and Japanese porce lains such as lmari, because of the lives we've led,'' with Marine husbands tra ditionally serving primarily in the western Pacific. Other furnishings come from outside donations and from the Corps itself. With today's more modest house holds, it has become increasingly dif ficult for Commandants to furnish the house appropriately. This situation led the Cushmans to seek authority from the secretary of the navy to solicit gifts and contributions for use in the Com mandant's house.

Helen Smith, a former Chairman of the Women's Committee, was in a shiny pink-and-green sheath (Very old! she confessed) ... and Gin ny (Mrs. John) Sapienza wore her favorite hot pink Chinese silk. Millie Mailliard, Ann Upton, Ruthanna Weber and a dozen more members heeded instructions, and so did the Ball's mascot, the giant pachyderm, who stands trunk upraised, in the center of the rotunda. He (or she?) sported a splendidly raffish shocking pink saddle blanket. Martha Bartlett planned the decorations to carry out a "carousel" theme this year. Lively 19th century hand-carved animals pranced around the elephant, haunting calliope music piped guests up the escalator, and straw-hatted young barkers pre sented them with rings-some of which turned out to be brass and entitled their owners to some tempting doorprizes. "This is the dance for dancers," said John Sapienza as he swept Ginny onto the floor ... and hardly anyone sat out even a moment while Gene Donati and his orchestra provided waltzes, polkas, Charlestons and even a tango or two for some of the best hoofers in town. Espied on the edge of the dance floor, obviously savoring every beat, were the Ducky Blocks, the Brackley Shaws, the George McGhees and the Adrian Fishers-the latter back for "good" in their lovely N Street house after nearly four years in Geneva. The Henry Smith's daughter Susan McConnell waltzed with Charles Van Stone while the Edward Hidalgos, the J. Edward Days and lovely Sigrid Spalding en joyed the music. S. Dillon Ripley, secretary of the Smithsonian, beamed proudly as he introduced the new direc tor of the Museum of Natural Hi tory, Dr. Richard Fiske and his wife.

Spring/Summer 1981 h a i• 9 By Donald Dresden obert McDaniel indisputably ranks as the gastronomical R guru of Washington. And it's no wonder. His encyclopedic know ledge of food and wine and his ability to describe them, coupled with his mod est, affable personality, have elevated him to the presidency of the Washing ton chapters of the most exclusive epicurean societies in the world: the In ternational Wine and Food Society and the Confrerie de Ia Chaine des Rotis seurs. While attending the Gastro nomic Fair in Dijon he was also elected a Commandeur de Cordon Bleu. McDaniel worships gourmandise. "Good food and wine is my only hob by," he says. "Indeed wine and food have been the greatest pleasures of my life." As the sharpest fin bee in town, McDaniel, who is 56, has probably helped plan and participated in more "grand dinners," as he calls such Lucullan bashes, than anyone in the Federal City. His prowess as an epicure is so esteemed by professional chefs that they ask him to rate their work: within the last two years he was chosen by the National Capital Chefs Association and the Americale Culinaire of Wash ington from a roster which included White House Executive Chef Henry Haller, to serve as chief judge of the presentations of participants in the Salon of Culinary Art sponsored by the Greater Washington Restaurant Asso ciation. Since McDaniel was invited to be a member of the Chaine and the Wine and Food Society some 20 years ago, he has been a member of or advisor to vir tually every committee that plans these organizations' dinners. Choosing a res taurant is a cinch for McDaniel since he knows virtually every place in town and the strengths of their chefs. Then negotiations with the restaurant begin.
