Swells By The Numbers

Total number of people pictured in this week's Swells society column: 51.

Number of people pictured whose names we recognize: 2 (Susie Tompkins Buell and Mollie Stone).

Minority count: 4 (approximately 8%).

Getty v. Traina: 1-0 (Newsom scores for Team Getty).

Hats, capes, tiaras: 2, 0, 0.

Amount bid by Susie Tompkins Buell on behalf of the Golden Gate National Park Conservancy Trails benefit auction for dinner with caterer Paula LeDuc at Fort Point, causing consternation from her auctioneer husband: $21,000.

Height of the Tiffany silver candlesticks that were the highlight of the party honoring Connoisseur Circle members of the San Francisco Fall Antiques Show, in feet: 4 (without candles).

Number of stories Gavin Newsom sort of jokingly, sort of not, accused the Chronicle of running about his hair product status, while ignoring the works he's done for underprivileged youth in Bayview-Hunters Point, during the Blue Angels show: 20. (C-Big confirms our tipsters' reports that Gavin's hair was down during the event -- but notes that he definitely had styling product in it even in that state as well.)

Number of mayoral split ends seen during the tirade: none.

Mentions of Charlotte Maillard Shultz this week: 0! The streak has ended.
