Back Stairs: Stories Would
By MERRIMAN SMITH
UP While House Writer
Gettysburg, Pa. IW
Back stairs at the country
White House:
If President Eisenhower's
dog. Heidi, could read, she
would be amazed at the rate
of stories printed after she
rode to Gettysburg in the
presidential motorcade last
week
Reporters unfamiliar with
the menagerie at the Eisen
hower farm really let them
selves go, and one even went
to the point of desecribing
how Heidi, a handsome
Weimaraner, breakfasts daily
on two poached eggs on toast
with two strips of bacon.
Members of the family and
White House staff say this is
downright "ridiculous."
Heidi was a gift to the
President from the son of a
cabinet member nearly two
years ago. A number of news
stories were written about
Heidi and the other dogs
around the Eisenhower farm
last winter.
Heidi and the other dogs
reside normally with Ivan
Feaster, the President s farm
er here at Gettysburg.
About six months ago, Hei
di was sent away to a dog
trainer to be taught to obey
simple commands and after
her training was completed,
she was delivered to the
White House for transship
ment to Gettysburg. And that
is how she showed up in the
White House auto caravan
last Friday.
Dewey Long, the White
House transportation chief,
has been out of circulation for
several weeks. Dewey, who
has arranged and directed
presidential trips for more
than two decades, has been
rather ill at a hospital in Ta
koma Park. Md. His family
and friends were worried

Detectives identified the
boy as Warren Yeager of
Queens Village, a third-year
high school student.
He admitted repeatedly
stabbing Mrs. Mary Nerich,
44. near her home in Queens
Village two nights before
Christmas. Yeager fled with
the woman's purse after the
attack and left her to die on
the sidewalk.

improved sufficiently to go
home for Christmas Day.
Once by his own fireside, his
improvement seemed to speed
up and while it may be some
time before he is back on the
job, he is on the mend and
feeling much better.
The weatherman had the
most of this past week in
White House party scared
Gettysburg. For the first four
days the President was at his
farm, the forecast was for
either sleet, snow or chilling
rain. And each of these four
days dawned bright and sun
ny, with the temperatures
ranging from below freezing
at night to the high 40s in the
daytime.

Flora R. He throws up
the past at me.
James R. I don't think
she's really changed. "
Flora R.. I wonder if it
pays to be honest and truth
ful. I was no angel before I
was married. I came from a
broken home and I had no
supervision at all when I was
a teen-ager. I ran wild and
got into plenty of trouble. A
social worker finally helped
me to change my way of life.
Friends advised me not to
tell my husband anything,
but I'm honest by nature. I
Wouldn't sell my husband a
bill of goods. I told him all
about my past. He forgave
me and I thought all would
be forgotten.
Now, after three years of
marriage, my husband starts
throwing these things up at
me. I would walk right out
on him, but we have a year
old baby. I don't want my
child to have the kind of
problems I had. I want to
make a decent home, but how
can I?
James R. if it were just
the past, I could forget about
it, but I don't think Flora has
really changed even now.
I have begged her to stop
using so much makeup and
wearing the kind of clothes
she wears. Wherever we go,
men stop and stare after her.
She flirts all the time with
the butcher, the baker and
the candlestick maker. Is this
the way for a respectable
woman and a mother to act?
I never would have brought
up the past if it weren't that
one of our neighbors finally
asked whether Flora had
ever been a chorus girl or
something. How can I help

snowed in at Gettysburg, and
if the visibility is operational,
he'll probably be airlifted
back to Washington by heli

has made some practice runs
to the Gettsburg airport in
the past few days.
The grass landing surface

The fellows at the Bureau

They're the most delicious 20'

parts.
I but think about all the things
she told me when she still
I hasn't toned down? One of
my friends told me everyone
was shocked that a conserva
tive guy like me married a
girl like Flora.
The Council: James doesn't
mention whether. Flora has
changed her dress and style
of makeup since marriage.
We're willing to wager she
hasn't changed but the
things that once attracted
James now worry him.
And why? If men stare at
Flora now, they probably
stared at her before her mar
riage. Then James was proud.
Now he is ashamed. From his
account, it is not so much the
story of Flora's past that
works on him as a few words
said by a neighbor and a
"friend."
James is being very unjust
both in bringing up the past
and in making veiled insinua
tions about the present. He
evidently has nothing to go
on in the present, except
Flora's preference for flashy
dress. He seems unable to
back his suggestion of her
flirtations with "the butcher,
the baker and the candlestick
maker."
We think it might be ad
visable for Flora to tone
down on the dress a bit since
it bothers her husband. But
the biggest change in this re
lationship should come from
James. He should be proud
of his wife's honesty and her
apparently sincere desire to
create a decent life for her
self and her family ,and
should cast out the worm of
jealousy which is destroying
a potentially good marriage.

Then I called by old buddy
Jack LaRue to help me steal
the film.
"While Cancellieri and I
and the bogus exhibitor were
watching the picture, LaRue
was taking each completed
reel off the camera and hid
ing it in my car. Finally, Can

happening and started
screaming like a Neopolitan

"We finally left him there
and ditched the film in a safe
place. Then I had to hide out
for a couple of days. The
district attorney wanted to
arrest me for grand theft. I
finally returned the picture
to the Italian consulate and
got a promise that it would
j be returned to Italy. So I at
least stopped my partner
from selling the film without
my approval.
"He's finally calmed down
and we're negotiating again.
But ' it's tough. We've got a
million bucks tied up in the
picture and we've got to
come to terms.
"Cancellieri will be going
back to Italy soon, and he
wants to leave it all in the
Italian courts. But it will
take two or three years to
get it straightened out over
there and by that time the
picture will be an antique."
