Back Stairs: Gettysburg Address Common By MERRIMAN SMITH United Press While House Writer ; Washington (U.R) Back stairs at the White House: . Current gag around town: President Eisenhower and Abra ham Lincoln have at least one thing in common a Gettys burg address. ' Bright spot in the long-spring banquet season for the President undoubtedly was the news pho tographers dinner last Saturday night. Seldom has the President laughed more heartily than he did at Ray Bolger's version of the Army sad sack. Sort of a shame that Mr. Ei senhower's remarks at the end 6f the photographers' dinner were off-the-record. Probably his most humorous and sprightly wordage this year. The President recently wrote music modernist Duke Elling ton, thanking him for an invita tion to the Newport, R. I., jazz festival next July. The Duke inquires: "You don't think he'd really come?" Not in July, Duke. Congress usually is at its busiest then, and the President sticks close to home base. Evidence of continuing public interest in White House efforts to get rid of squirrels: ; Numerous telephone calls to fhe press room, asking about the Lest bait to load box traps. , Man in Bethesda, Md., says he used the system of trapping the squirrels and releasing them miles away and his property re mained squirrel-free for nearly two years. : Another squirrel expert calls in to report that the best remedy is an alert dachshund. Such a dog, says this expert, may not run the squirrels off the prop erty, but it will keep the little rodents in the trees. : Two government secretaries who refused to give their names indignantly telephoned- Murray Snyder, the assistant press secre tary at the White House. Said they were nature lovers and de manded to know why the White House squirrels were being run ff the premises. flfE W4 i mm t i i i aa m ADD VARIETY TO LENTEN MEALS WITH TASTY.

Snyder was non-com-mi tal. Reason behind the President's tvice-a-week visits to Walter Reed Army Medical Center to learn a series of exercises that should help the bursitis in the right shoulder. When the President goes to Augusta next month, he would like to get in a round of golf with Ben Hogan if Ben checks in for the annual Masters tour nament. Officials at the Augusta Na tional Golf Club regard Ben's winning 72-hole score of 274 in 1953 as the best comparable round in golf history. Hogan still remains Mr. Eisenhower's top golf idol. Oil The Side By E. V. Durling (Distributed by King Features Syndicate, Ine.) What do women talk about most? That is a much discussed query. A fellow who is the only man in an office in which over a hundred women are employed should be qualified to answer the aforementioned query. He says the favorite subject of con versation among women is their health. That the worse they think theii health is the more they enjoy talking about it. Dogs For twenty years the most popular dog in Great Britain was the long eared Cocker Span iel. Now it is the French Minia ture Poodle. Is frequently claim ed the Miniature Poodle is strict ly "a woman's dog." That might me. Still. Sir Winston Churchill has a Minitaure Poodle named Rufus. Great Horses Present day owners and trainers continue to whine and whimper as to the weight assign ed their allegedly "greaf'horses. Even 134 pounds causes these "sportsmen" to keep their charges in the stable. Why, Sir, Roseben, a truly great horse, twice won the Manhattan Handi cap at Belmont Park while carrying 147 pounds! Slargazers Despite the innumerable as persions cast upon the stargaz ers many highly successful and indisputably intelligent people have a belief in astrology. Among them are Mary Pickford and Anita Loos. Both Mary and Anita "Were clients of the late Evangeline Adams, the most successful of modern astrolo gers. Mary Pickford never en gaged in an enterprise or went on a trip without first consult ing her. Other clients of Evan geline Adams were Joseph Jef ferson, Lillian Russell, Mrs. Les lie Carter and Ella Wheeler Wil cox. Stormy Weather Worst storm I ever went through took place in Atlantic, Iowa, when I was on a transcon tinental auto trip. The thunder and lightning kept going for ten straight hours. Another bad storm I hit while crossing the country was in New Mexico. That was a windstorm. The wind was so strong I expected the automobile to be turned over by it any minute. Strongest Blonde Ask your wife what she thinks of the figure of a woman having the following measurements: height, five feet eight; bust, thirty-seven; waist, eighteen, and hips, thirty-seven. Yes, that's right, waist, eighteen inches. Those are the measure ments of the world's strongest blonde, Joan Rhodes of England. Joan can bend a six inch nail with her fingers, tear up a thick telephone book with ease, lift a piano and toss a 220 pound man across a room. The Junoesque Joan is a good looker. She's not married. She wants very much to be a bride. However, the eli gible bachelors seem afraid of her. Brides An outstanding feature of the matrimonial career of Charles Chaplin is that all his wives were teen-agers when he mar ried them. Paulette Goddard, the third Mrs. Chaplin, was the oldest of the four brides. She was 19. Mildred Harris and Lita Grey were each 16. Oona O'Neill was 18. Almost Confidential Jerome Kern in collaboration with M. E. Rourke, once wrote a song titled "Never Marry a Girl With Cold, Cold Feet." . . . Two of the world's greatest dress designers were not born in Paris but in Chicago. I refer to Mainbocher and Charles James, both native Chicagoans. Dentists Best time for an appointment with a dentist in in the morn ing. In the afternoon the old boy's efficiency is usually be low par. He is full of lunch and the strain of standing up is be ginning to get him down. INSURANCE FOR COWS Madison, Wis.

(U.R) The bellow of elephants, the roar of lions and the cries of rousta bouts trumpeted the circus into a frenzy of action today as the big top broke winter quarters for its annual tour. It happens every spring for the Ringling Bros. Barnum and Bailey show, but seldom peace fully. One departure in recent years was held up for hours by one elephant who refused to board the train despite the combined efforts of a tractor and scores of handlers. The ponderous pac hyderm finally was nudged a board by other elephants. The "Greatest Show on Earth" plays its first stand in New York's Madison Square Gar den March 30.
