Newspaper Page Text8 MAIL TRIBUNE, Med fori. Ortgow, Mandy, December 29. 1958 Back Stairs: President Withdrawing? By MERRIMAN SMITH UPI White House Reporter Gettysburg, Pa. -4UPD- Back- stairs at the White House: Possibly because President Eisenhower has held only two press conferences in the last two months the chief execu tive recently has been the sub ject of some critical studies, printed and broadcast, pitch ed on the idea that he is with drawing from the reporters. The burden of several re cent widely distributed crit iques has been that Eisenhow er has just about zero person al relations with reporters in contrast to the two charmers who preceded him, the late President Roosevelt and for mer President Truman. To a degree, this is true. But often the critic of Eisen hower's press relations forgets one simple truth: The outside or so-called per sonal relationship between the President and the news men is just about what it is with virtually all members of his staff, his administration and the Congress. Sense of Orderliness Dwight David Eisenhower, after his many years in the relative formality of military life has an unusually pressing sense of orderliness, a form of emotional compartmentation. STOPPING AT DRUG STORE for coffee during early walk in New York, ex-President Harry S. Truman sits next to unidentified man who is more interested in his food than in flurry of activity surrounding Mr. Truman. Sport Parade OSCAR FRALEY Sports Writer United Press : New York - (UPD - Just in case you have any loose money left over from Christ mas, Fraleys follies and the bowl game "winners' - two costly events which fortun ately only come once a year. The Big Ones Rose Bowl - Iowa over California.- Sugar Bowl - L5U over Qemson. Cotton Bowl - Air Force over TCU. Orange Bowl - Syracuse over Oklahoma. Rose Bowl This looks like a free-scor ing game and I'd be a bit cau tious about giving away 17 points. The game matches two of the nation's top quarter backs in Iowa's Randy Dun can and Cal's Joe Kapp. " Iowa has two big. fast lines and a fleet all-around attack which puts the accent on of fense. California isn't too deep and, while Iowa's pass de fense isn't the greatest, neither are Cal's receivers. Iowa fig ures to grind 'em down but the hospitality kills the visit ors and it could be close. Sugar Bowl LSU is a 14-point favorite despite the fact that it is giv ing away a lot of beef in the line. Sparked by Billy Can non, it has breath-taking speed and can score from any place on the field. Clemson has a weight ad vantage. However, this is a slow team with a mediocre attack. I' can hammer out touchdowns but doesn't figure to match LSU's gifted produc tion. Cotton Bowl TCU is an eight-point fa vorite but from here this is the blue-plate special. It may be sending a bunch of boys on a man's errand, yet this team d-i-d tie mighty Iowa, 13-13, early in the year. The way it looks from here, the small, jet-powered Fal cons simply ran out of gas along the way through an un beaten schedule and just made it. But they have had time to rest for this one. TCU has a big bulge in size but lost to Iowa, 17-0. As a word of caution, they played a more rugged schedule than the Academy. Orange Bowl This, with Oklahoma a 14V& point favorite, will be a grind-it-out affair of little deception. The Orange is big, rugged and, despite Oklahoma's repu tation, if Chuck Zimmerman can hit with an occasional pass at the right moment, Syracuse could win a close one. Okla homa has a good defense and one of those old machine-like attacks. Yet, Syracuse has the heft to halt 'em. Prep Basketball North Salem 57. Marshfield 41 Beaverton 46, Rosebure 41 Pendleton 49.

Corvallis 55 He seems to observe a very I sharp dividing line between business and his private per sonal life. Reporters are justified when they deplore the chief execu tive's lack of personal, after- hours or social contact with them. It is true their stories would be much more interest ing, more revealing 1 if they could see more, if any, of the nation's No. 1 citizen off duty. But he just isn't that kind of a fellow. His circle of friends is quite small when it comes to people who golf, fish and play bridge with him. Not even Sherman Adams, who had the reputation of being the closest person in the en tire administration to Eisen hower, was on a golf or let's-have-lunch-together basis with the President. Such people as Adams, be fore his unhappy departure from the White House, and Jim Hagerty .- even Vice President Richard M. Nixon -play golf with the President rarely, and then only by invi tation. They dine with him seldom unless the occasion is business, a dinner or recep tion on the White House social season list of formal parties. Dinner With Nixons The night before Christmas, the President and his wife went to the Nixon's home for dinner. It was the first time the Eisenhowers had been in side the house. This doesn't mean for a minute that Eisenhower dis likes the people with whom he carries on his official af fairs. But when he's away from his job, he likes to be really away. He quite ob viously sees nothing incumb ent on a president to hobnob with an associate in govern ment purely because it might look like the thing to do. Possibly the major excep tion to this pattern of the President was and is his close personal friendship with for mer Treasury Secretary George M. Humphrey. He still visits in Humphreys' Thomas ville, Ga., winter home and goes duck shooting on occas ion with the former cabinet officer at a private club out side Toledo, Ohio.

Weather forecasters said the New river was expected to climb about three feet above flood stage at Galax, Va. They said the rain would probably end later today but predicted possible further flooding at the Roanoke, Tar, Neuse and Cape Fear river basins. In the nation's midsection, an invasion of cold air was expected to chase a spell of springlike weather that saw the mercury climb to a rec ord 51 degrees in Chicago Sunday.
