Mrs. Richard Nixon
Potpourri
Mrs. Richard Nixon was quoted in the November issue of
Ladies Home Journal to the effect that when "I step off a plane
I m expected to feel like a million and look like ten." She suc
ceeds. She did Friday night in Medford, anyhow.
When the door of the big DC6
opened at the Medford airport
Friday about 5:30 p.m. and the
vice-president and Mrs. Nixon
stepped out in the glare of
searchlights and popping flash
bulbs, they both immediately
started to charm the throng, j
young and old alike. Both of S
them, particularly Patricia Nix-; ..
on, have friendly, smiles and j
both succeed in making those
they meet feel that they are per
sonally interested in each one.
Maybe they are, too. If so, its a t
mightly valuable quality.
Having gone out to the airport with the express intention of
following Mrs. Nixon around, we did just that. We watched while
she received a big bouquet of bronze chrysanthemums from Judie
Bash, who had been literally quivering with excitement for hours,
and while she and her husband greeted the long line of city and
state officials and Republican dignitaries who had assembled for
the arrival. ,
We watched while they shook hands and signed autographs for
the swarm of young people who hung over the airport fence,
screaming, yelling and waving banners, and while the two moved
on down to shake the hands of a union delegation. '
Having been told in advance that the Nixons would be prompt
ly hustled from the plane to cars, since time was short and they
wanted to rest, we had given up any idea of talking to the nation's
"second lady." But somehow or the other, chance provided an op
portunity for Potpourri to walk beside her for a few seconds and
so we asked the first question that popped into our head, which
was "Is it true that you wired ahead for a pair of shoes?" Mrs.
Nixon answered good-naturedly that she had done just that. "I
had to," she said. "I broke a heel off one they just gave out!"
Just then big Bob Mautz, Republican national committeeman for
Oregon hustled her off and that ended probably the shortest
interview we ever had.
When the motorcade stalled around the corner of the airport
building, the Nixons both got out of the car again and Mrs. Nixon
greeted dozens of additional well wishers. A small, shivering girl,
who turned out to be Margaret Ann Heysell, Lone Pine school
pupil, shyly hung her head when Mrs. Nixon tried to shake her
hand. "Are you cold?" she asked, and when speechless Margaret
Ann nodded her head, Mrs. N. leaned down and gave her a big
hug. "There that'll warm you," she said gaily.
Having looked with care at the two-page color picture layout
of Mrs. Nixon's wardrobe which the Journal carried, we recog
nized the heavy black topcoat she wore as one pictured in the
magazine. However, her hat had not been shown it was medium
in size with a down-dipping brim and the crown was encircled
with flat feathers which looked brownish-red and green in the
garish light.
Potpourri had lots of work to do after dinner, so we couldn t
attend the meeting at which Vice-President Nixon spoke in the
evening. However, the Tribune's Peg Hutchinson reported that
for the appearance at Hedrick school Mrs. Nixon wore the black
silk taffeta dress shown in the Journal feature. We quote: Mrs.
Nixon's black silk taffeta dress was accented with white lingerie
touches on collar and cuffs. A flat matching bow with self fringe
finished the neckline. Her jewelry, very simple, consisted of a
short single strand of pearls with rhinestone earrings and bracelet.
Her pale rose nailpolish and lipstick matched.
When seated, a crinoline held her bouffant skirt so it formed
a graceful arc on either side of the chair. At first Mrs. Nixon
checked her skirt, then didn't seem to worry about it again.
Her hair framed her face with soft curls and just missed her
collar in back. She wore a small black hat.
Throughout her husband's talk the sparkle in her eyes added
to the sincerity of her smile.
Saturday we learned that Mrs. Nixon did buy some shoes.
Burelson's store sent several pairs to the hotel by a boy, but none
quite fitted. Upon hearing of this emergency Joseph Patella of the
store, who was home with a cold, bundled himself up, went down
to the store and selected several which he took to the hotel. Mrs.
Nixon chose a pair of black leather pumps, apparently a favorite
type of shoe with the "second lady."
The staff at the Medford hotel, thrown into a positive dither
for at least a week before the arrival of the important couple
and their large entourage, and overawed by the swarm of secret
service and other security men who practically took the hotel
apart with their needful precautionary measures, felt Saturday
morning that it had all been quite worthwhile.
The cooks were glowing with praise, for hadn t the Nixons
and Mr. and Mrs. Douglas McKay come into the kitchen after
their late dinner to thank them for the good steak? (The Veep and
Mrs. N. had been scheduled to dine in their rooms, but at the last
minute changed their minds and dined with the McKays, Mr.
Mautz and Wendell Wyatt. chairman of the Republican Central
committee for Oregon, in the hotel's new Candle Room.)
And the Nixons didn't forget to thank the hotel housekeeper,
Mrs. Hazel Jackson, either, for her efforts to make them comfort
able. About the most excited person of all was 91-year-old Fred
Watson, who had joined his son, Harry Watson, hotel manager.
to greet the Nixons in the lobby upon their arrival. Before he left
Saturday morning at the early hour of 7 a.m. Vice-President Nixon
sent a pen to the elderly man as a memento of the occasion.
Manager Watson said the Nixons noticed that he and Mrs.
Watson had endeavored to make the room more home-like appear
ing by moving a few of their own possessions into it for the
couple's brief stay. "They were truly kind and wonderful," de
clared Manager W. Saturday, and then added, "it's too bad that
government officials can't visit towns like ours oftener, and not
just because it's election time. O.S.
