Capital's Eligible Bachelors
Determined to Stay Single
By JANE EADS "
WASHINGTON Leap Year 19.VJ finds some of the capital's most
eligible bachelors not only determined but still blithely confident they'll
stay that way.
Handsome young Sen. Henry Scoop Jackson D-Wash for whom
many a Washington female has set her cap. told me: "If you don't
get 10 proposals right off, you're safe. So far no one has so much
as approached me. "
On the other hand, when some
one a s k e d the
amiable but ad

going for him.
he replied: . I fJj

And when a wo-
man approached

tin 'it-maw to sk . wnetner u
were true he was a "confirmed
bachelor," he was overheard to
reply: "It's true I'm a bachelor,
but I'm not confirmed."
Jackson, Rayburn and Martin,
along with wealthy Sen. Francis
Green D-RI. supply part of the
answer to the capital hostess'
prayer for e x t r a men for formal
-dinner parties. They're very much
in demand, but they can't possibly
make all of the shindigs to which
they are invited, though Sen.

continues to be the hostess' big

steps to help solve the situation
- for her boss-lady by complying a

Fact, Fiction
Blend in
Legend
The legend of Valentine's Day
as the traditional "day of lovers"
is a mixture of fact and fiction
according to the Valentine's Day
Council. -
The fact Is that a man named
Valentine actually lived. A Chris
tian priest living in Rome in the
third century, he incurred the
wrath of the Emperor Claudius j
for the steadfastness of his Chris
tian beliefs and was beheaded.
What was left of the good saint
was interred in the Church of St.
Praxcdes in Rome, where a gate,
1 no known as the Porta de Popolo,
was formerly named in his honor.
The fiction, according to the
f Council,- enters the legend in its"
dedication to romance. Without
any proof to guide them, the ex-
rwtrfa varv wiH.lv as tn lintu
the patron of lovers.
The most widely accepted refer
ence is that the feasting and fes
tivities traditional to February 14
stemmed from the Ancient Roman
feast of Lupercalia, which was held
j at this time of the year. This cele-
bration was dedicated to the "wolf
destroyers" of ancient Rome, in
the days when the only worrisome

Valentine, whose day on the church
