One of the programs of the post week especially ei joyed by Secretary and Mrs. McKay was an evening of songs by Eddie Fisher and other television stars at the Stat ler Hotel ballroom. In addition to the usual telecast of Hie Fisher program, an after show followed the buffet dinner and the young singer was generous in his numbers to the delight of the audience. Governor Paul I.. Patterson of Oregon was a guest of the Vie Mackenzie for the show.. Thomas P. Campbell. Oregon State Com mander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, was host to the Secretary at the annual din ner given by the organization in honor of Congressional members and other officials last Thursday evening. This has been a beautiful day tempera tures in the upper fifties, clear and lovely. The annual Washington birthday sales in t tic downtown area brought nut the usual flocks of people some standing in line from early dawn to be first in the stores for the "come on" items among the bargains, such as typewriters and sewing machines (or 0!) cents, $33 suits for $3, a $71.50 wrist watch for a penny, TV sets for $3, $12 03 shoes for five cents just a few "teasers" in each store to bring out the crowds. The stores keep open for only three to four hours and I'm sure the clerks could stand no more than that. I just caught up with the morn ing papers and discovered the items listed believe it or not. this thing has been go ing on for 3D years back here. It was a good day not to go shopping, in my opinion, but a wonderful day to catch up with the home work after the continuous festivities of the past week. Several of the legations and chancery offices of other coun tries arc in "my" block on Massachusetts and in honor of our fust president their flags are flying in the breeze this afternoon pro viding an international note as I close this letter to you. 1'rg Fashions Spotlighted ljllfl f- J 'f ill': The Models...
