Back Stairs: Factor in Ike's Decision By MERRIMAN SMITH United Press Whit House Writer Washington (U.P.) Back stairs at the White House: One of President Eisenhower's trusted associates says his per sonal opinion is that with the foreign picture brightening, the domestic political situation may be the controlling factor in Mr. Eisenhower's deliberations on whether to run again in 1956. This friend and associate thinks that if Mr. Eisenhower be comes convinced that the Demo crats will nominate a Stevenson or a Harriman, the chief execu tive would fear what a liberal opposition presidential nominee, If successful, would do to the accomplishments of his own program. Would Feel Safer This same source believes that If Mr. Eisenhower had firm rea son to believe that the Demo crats will nominate a conserva tive for the presidency, he would feel much safer about contem- Events for First Grade Students at Howard School Set A series of events for chil dren who will enter the first grade at Howard school next fall, an their parents, will be held next week, according to Superintendent Harold F.

"He would not enjoy a single day in Gettysburg," said this associate, "if he had to sit up there and watch Democratic lib erals tear up or negate what he regards as the accomplishments of his administration. This is not political vanity, but his strong belief that he has done what was best for the country. "This, however, is just my own opinion. Like everybody else, I've got no information." This is the time of year when anglers, appreciative of the Pres ident's interest in their sport, start sending him gifts of their favorite fishing flies. iff in Creek Griffin Creek Grange Griffin Creek Grange enjoyed program nut on bv 4-H eroucis Thursday evening. Robert Allen favored us with violin solo accompanied by his mother, Mrs. Glen Allen. Steps in sewing were demonstrated by Janet Kelley, Nancy Kime, San dra Reich.

State Grange convenes at Klamath Falls June 6. Cake and ice cream were served by the men at the meet ing in honor of Mothers day and the new electric hot water heaterbeing connected we think the men enjoyed cleaning up the dishes. Next regular meeting will be May 26 at 8 p.m. Mrs. Eisenhower is really set tling down as a resident of Gettysburg. She is now making occasional shopping tours of the Gettysburg stores for small pur chases in comparative calm that would not be possible in crowd ed Washington. The honorary degree Mr. Eis enhower receives June 11 from his brother Milton's school, Pennsylvania State University, will be the first honorary degree conferred, by Penn State in 34 years. The President shows signs of being somewhat sensitive to as sertions that his closest friends are invariably the well heeled ones. He was posing for pictures the other day with two teen-agers who had won S800 in bonds in the Elks' National Leadership Contest. The kids, John Armer, 17, Phoenix, and Francis Marie Horak, 17, Long Island City, N. Y., fanned out their $1600 in bonds and Mr. Eisenhower helped display them for the news cameras. Not without mis givings by the President, how ever. "Now they'll say in the public prints," he said, "that I've been entertaining just the rich people." CIVIL STUDY PLANNED San Juan, Puerto Rico (U.R) Gov. Luis Munoz Marin an nounced today he has invited Roger Baldwin of thp American Civil Liberties Union to conduct a study of civil liberties in Puer to Rico.

VISIT VALLEY SPOTS Elk Creek Members of the fifth and sixth grade classes at Elk Creek school visited the Gas- burg museum in Phoenix, the Medf ord weather bureau and The Mail Tribune Tuesday. They were accompanied by their teach er. Mrs. Bertie Moore. On The Side By E. V. DurlJng (Distributed by Kinej Feature! Syndicate, Inc.) LOVE YOU? You cannot ask of ma So freely as I wish to give. It is woman's great necessity To love at long as she shall live. Phoebe Cary The holder of the "Girl Fri day" record for working the longest time for the same boss seems to be Bessie L. Crocker of New York City. Miss Crocker has been the .private secretary of Attorney Walter Drew of Manhattan for over 47 years. She began working for Mr. Drew in December, 1907. Sidelights Our countrywomen seem to have revived rustling skirts. So, why not revive Jimmy Walk er's song titled "There's Music in the Rustle of a Skirt"? . . . How right Schopenhauer was when he observed, "The greatest of follies is to sacrifice health for any other advantage" . . . Ever see a book worth over half a million dollars? In the New York City public library there is a Gutenberg Bible worth that much. Asking Queries from clients. Q. AVhb wrote the hit song titled "Let Me Call You Sweetheart?" A. The ballad you mention was written by that talented red hair ed beauty from Nashville, Tenn., Beth Whitson. She also wrote "Meet Me Tonight in Dream land." Q. How many Cherry Sis ters were there in that curious vaudeville act? I say five, right? A. Wrong, sir. There were only four Cherry Sisters. They were from Cedar Rapids, la. First names were Jessie, Addie, Lizzie and Effie. At the time of their first stage appearance Jessie, the youngest, was 17, Effie, the oldest, was 22. Asides Frank Leahy, former Notre Dame football coach, is one of eight children. His wife is also one of eight children. And the Leahys have eight children . . . Have you ever given a thought to how big "The Big Town" real ly is? Well, sir, there are more people regularly living in New York City than there are in all of Canada. Musical Note How sharp are you on music? What opera calls for the leading lady to have unusually beautiful legs? It is "Der Rosenkavalier" by Richard Strauss. The comp oser wrote that opera for Mary Garden because of her beautiful legs. Mary never played it. She was going to but World War I intervened and all German op eras were banned in Paris. The question arises, which one of the singers who portrayed Ostavian in "Der Rosenkavalier" had the most beautiful legs? I couldn't say definitely. Probably Rise Stevens. Please Note The "minimum tip" for a Man hattan taxi driver is now a quar ter. Anything smaller is "insult ing and humiliating." So I am informed by a New York taxi cab driver . . . Over 2,000 years ago, in 310 B.C., Menander said "a chaste woman ought not to dye her hair yellow." Just shows how long people have been pick ing on the synthetic blondes, poor girls. Almost Confidential A television commentator re ferred to Picasso as "the greatest living artist." Bunk! It was Sal vador Dali who said, "Picasso's works are pseudo decorative and they all look like rugs." . . . Have you noticed most mothers of many offspring are usually small women? For example, Mrs. Lloyd Brooks of Pittsfield, Me., the mother of thirteen chil dren. Mrs. Brooks is five feet and weighs 100. Boundary Board Denies Petition For District Change The Jackson county boundary board yesterday turned down a petition to transfer a large block of property from Ashland School District 5 to Talent School dis trict 22, according to Alf Mek vold, county superintendent of schools and secretary of the boundary board. The petition, signed by sev eral residents of both school dis tricts, maintained that children residing on property owned by Suncrest and Goldencrest orch ards attended school in the Tal ent district while most of the tax able land in the area was in the Ashland district. Petition Denied The board, which includes Mekvold and the three members of the county court, denied the petition because of a legal opin ion by District Attorney Walter Nunley, written last April 29, that when property is trans ferred from one district to an other by action of the boundary board, the property must con tinue to carry its proportionate share of the bonded indebtedness of the district it is leaving as well as assume its share of the bonded indebtedness of the dis trict it is joining. Representatives of the two orchards, who at first joined in the petition, yesterday withdrew their support for the move when they learned of the provisions of the law as set forth in the pinion. if'Sp 'I 1 Talk about being proud!
