Tri-Y Notes
By MARY LOO HASTINGS
i (Trl-Y Member)
The most important part of
YWCA has been somehow neglect
ed in those columns. Afterall, we
mustn't forget the people behind
the activities and fun at the Y,
I'm speaking of the staff which
consists of three professional wo
men and three non-professional
women.
In the professional group there is
the executive director who is re
sponsible for the entire Y associ
ation. This big job is handled in
Salem by Miss Gertude Acheson.
Next, there is the young adult
director who is responsible for all
groups over 18 years of age. Such
clubs would be Y-Wives, Co-Ucc,
Golden Age, Y-news paper. Miss
Acheson is also heading tins de
partment as this position is now
temporarily unfilled.
Last in the professional group is
the teen-age director, Miss Olorm
Kainu. Her responsibility is to or.
ganizo and direct all teen age act
ivilies, both junior and senior high
school.
In the non-professional group.
there is the bookkeeper and re
ceptionist, Miss Betty May. Dar-
line Trinnecr is the evening re
ceptionist. Last among the non
professional group is the house
mother, Mrs. Eva Hickenger.
In January the Y will havo a
full time physical education in
structor who will direct all gym
nasium activities.
As soon as the residence section
of the building is completed, the
Y will have a residence director.
This is Just a preview of what
kind of work the staff of the YWCA
does. It's no wonder that there is
such a great opportunity for Chris
tian activities with such a fine
staff backing it up.

Dear Marian:
An extremely busy two weeks
on the west coast are only a mem
ory now, but what a pleasant
memory for all of us displaced
Oregonians. And now the equally !
busy days here have resumed. .
Tonight : Secretary and Mrs.
Douglas McKay are dinner guests
of Mrs. Oveta Culp Hobby, Secre
tary of Public Health, Education,
and Welfare, and Mr. and Mrs,
Nelson Rockefeller, who are hon
oring the new United States Sen
ator from Nebraska, Mrs. Eva
Bowring. Mr. Rockefeller is Un
dersecretary in the department
headed by Mrs. Hobby, and the
dinner Is being held at the Rocke
feller residence on Foxhall Road.
At noon Mrs. - McKay attended
a White House luncheon for wives
of the cabinet and the so-called
"little cabinet." The latter con
sists of the undersecretaries and'
assistant secretaries, and the
wives of these officials from the
several departments have organ
ized an informal and friendly
group that often gathers for spe
cial events, just as do the wives
of the cabinet members in their
smaller circle. . ,
Mrs. McKay was especially en
thusiastic about the table decora
tions, which she declared were
breath-taking and the most beau
tiful she has ever seen at the
White House luncheons or dinners.
A great profusion of pink small
budded roses, combined with pink
snapdragons, formed the bouquets
that were in alternating high and
low silver bowls. Tall silver
candelabrum with white candles,
id ropes of smllax down the cen
ter ' and edges of the huge
E-shaped table, completed the
picture. Mrs. Eisenhower was
seated in the center of the closed
side of the table with the wives
of two recently resigned officials
on either side, Mrs. Joseph Dodge
and Mrs. Russell Kyes, who came
to Washington for the luncheon.
There was no protocol in the seat
ing arrangement contrary to of
ficial dinners at the White House
and everything was on an in
formal and friendly scale. The
President's wife greeted all of the
guests in the Blue Room prior to
the luncheon and joined with them
in gay conversation in the East
Room for coffee following the
Camp Open House
Set for Sunday 1
A camp open house for Girl
Scouts and their families and all
interested persons is planned for

meal. Some ZOO guests enjoyed
the First Lady's hospitality. As
usual at functions at the execu
tive mansion, the Marine Band
played and the selections chosen
were largely songs favored in yes
teryear, ever popular, with Mrs.
tisenhower. -In
the rush of many things to
report at the time of the recent
Good Will Tour of embassies, -not
sufficient account -was given of
one of the mansions visited the
one where tea was served, and at
which the wife of the Vice Presi
dent, Mrs. Richard Nixon; .was
the gracious guest of honor. '.-The
embassy, newly occupied by the
Ambassador of the Dominican Re
public and Senora de Moya, is
particularly famous for the hand
painted, 300-year-old wall paper
in the dining room. Imported
from Venice It is a tour stopper.
The Georgian-type brick embassy
houses many art treasures and
will soon have additional hand
made mahogany , furniture from
the deMoyas' home in the Repub
lic, -Another feature Is the gum
wood panelling in the library,
with a mellow burnished finish.
Those who poured at the tea, in
cluding Mrs. McKay, were de
lighted with the lovely surround
ings in which they served as their
contributions to the Good Will In
dustries, an agency for the re
habilitation of the handicapped
also known in Oregon for its con
structive local nroaram there.
And speaking of embassies, and
good will, tnis weeK is worm
Trade Week in Washington, with
the ambassadors and ministers of
foreign countries cooperating with
the World Trade Committee of
the Board of Trade of the Dis
trict in several programs. Sec
retary McKay attended a lunch
eon Monday noon on his first day
back in the city and on Thurs
day evening he will speak at an
evening program in the Interior
Auditorium with international en
tertainment arranged by talent
from the embassies.
The last program is a much
gayer note than the underlying
tensions of the international sit
uation but at least a portion
of the world as represented of
ficially in Washington is trying
to cooperate.
