Quite a sendoff, and nothing secret about it, was the Washington garden party given by CIA Director and Mrs. John McCone, one of many recent parties in honor of Deputy Secretary of Defense Roswell Gilpatric, 56, retiring soon to return to private law practice in Manhattan. Some 120 bigwigs came to dine and dance amidst the greenery, all members, said McCone, "of an exclusive club, the Gilpatric Club." Asked by his host what he and pretty wife Madelin will do with themselves when they've left the New Frontier behind, Gilpatric answered with an apt quote from King Lear: "We'll live, and pray, and sing, and tell old tales . . . and hear poor rogues talk of court news."
