Mark Hatfield and his family is gold. But there is a little bit of everything in it. -Gov. and Mrs. Hatfield showed their new home to newsmen Sunday. They mov ed into the four - bedroom house two weeks ago. The "at home" affair was the second bit of entertaining thus far. The new house, which they are purchasing, was the scene of a celebration honoring the-golden wedding anniversary of the governor's parents a few days after they moved in. : The 87-year-old house is dotted with their . antiques paintings, objects d'art and other mementos. There's a bit of the state built in, too. One of the items is a stain ed glass window containing the state seal, acquired when the old Lane county court house was razed. There is a flag pole from Roseburg and some concrete from the old Capitol building. Myrtlewood paneling for the den is from the Coquille area. The house - green on the outside - has four bedrooms and a nursery, two bathrooms and a powder room, living room, dining room, den, two fireplaces, a kitchen and a half - basement, where the utility room is located. There is a big back yard where eventually a patio and barbecue will go. Gold Dominates Gold dominates the living and dining rooms, the walls, rugs, drapes, picture and mir ror frames. There are two tele phones, one red-an emergency line to the capitol. Still unfinished are the den, kitchen, nursery and circu lar driveway. Pending com. pletion of the latter, the gov ernor's official carra new gold-brown Lincoln - nas Been parked on the street. There is an announcing system. You press the door bell, say who's calling and buttons strategically placed open the door. Many of the rooms are plush. The main floor bath room is done in red, the walls a pattern of lions. It wasn't always like this- When the Hatfields were SHOP FRIDAY 12 till 9 married July 8, 1958, they moved into a small two-bedroom apartment one block from the capitol. There was no dining room and the den was destined to become a nursery. Last February 14, when Vice President Richard Nixon vis ited to help celebrate the Ore gon Centennial, the Hatfields entertained him in a break fast nook. The convenient part about being so near the capitol was offset by. the fact , that 1,000 or so state employes could, if they wanted to; keep tabs on the first family. No Fence -Ytt The Hatfields bought the house just after he was elected governor. A period of major reconstruction followed. They finally were able to move in two weeks ago. . Although there isn't a fence around the house, friends say they will need one eventually. Uninvited but po litely-received guests arrive. Sunday for . instance, while reception for the press was underway, four little girls from yie nearby state school for the deaf showed up. They just wanted to shake the gov ernor's hand. . . Another - little girl, un known to. the Hatfields but who said she. was a neighbor, turned up with a present for Elizabeth, the Hatfields' 5- month-old. daughter. It was a pair of booties. .Oregon has no provision for a governor's mansion. Most states do, and most, every other year legislation is intro duced to provide for one but the plans always have died. One person wondered it the governor had to take, some of the "gingerbread off so. old a house. Smiling, Hatfield re plied: "No, I'm going to put some on.". It. w i l 1 be a low wrought-iron railing along the roof known as a "win dow's walk." ...
