' Whenever I attend one of President Eisenhower's news conferences, I get in on a guest card which automatical ly disqualifies me from ask ing questions. So my interest in this subject is more or less academic. However, there are some members of the local press corps who have been trying for years to ask the President a question but have never gotten the nod. It is for the benefit of them, their children and their children's children that my research is directed. Solicits Expert Advice Before the President's meet ing with reporters this week, I solicited the expert advice of three veteran newsmen who have had remarkable success at getting recognized. Let us hear first from Merri- man Smith, White House re porter for United Press Inter national. "It's a matter of clean liv ing, playing the game, being able to shout very well (that's where the clean living comes in), and being able to stand in a half-crouch for 30 min utes;" Smith said. A modest man. Smith is dis inclined to talk about his own accomplishments, particularly when no lecture fee is in volved. But I feel justified in saying for him that he is one of the best half-crouchers in the business. I next sought out Clark Mollenhoff, a prize-winning reporter for the Cowles pub lications, who authorized these quotes: Forecast Slowdowns 'You have to forecast about when he (the President) is slowing down and then you've got to get up fast and be big like a barn." It is easy enough for Mol lenhoff to be big like a barn. Even in a half-crouch, he tow ers over the rest of his col leagues and thus has a con spicuous advantage. Mollenhoff also has a the ory that Eisenhower tends to recognize repo rters who throw "bloopper ball" ques tions that he can knock out of the park, ignoring those who pitch curves. He says he himself fre quently tosses "soft" ques tions that the President will swing at but is likely to pop up. This brings us to Sarah Mc Clendon, who represents a string of newspapers and whose questions often bring the President to the brink of apoplexy. Nevertheless, the President keeps on recogniz ing her. Mrs. McClendon says the trick is to lay off the pace awhile and then start jump ing up while the President is looking in another direc tion. This distracts him and causes him to look her way next time. 1 would add to these pro fessional opinions my own ob servation that the President lists to port - that is, he tends to recognize newsmen on his left side. I also have a num ber of other inside tips on recognition but I have to hold back something in case I get that honorary degree. Hiker To Ascend Berthoud Pass Granby. Colo. - (WD - Dr. Barbara Moore, 56, began a 30-miie ciimb today to 11, 3 1 4-foot Berthoud Pass on the Continental Divide, her 31st day since leaving the Golden Gate en route to the Atlantic Coast. Dr. Moore, a London phy sician who lives on fruits, vegetables and honey, hoped to get well beyond Berthoud Pass before nightfall. She walked nearly 40 miles Wednesday, not stopping until she was seven miles past Granby. Dr. Moore was 80 miles west of Denver, on the edge of the Great Plains, when she started out today. She has walked about 1,300 miles from San Francisco. ACTOR DIES New York -JUPD- Georges Flevitsky, 58. an actor and Voice of America announcer, died hem Tuiy. Sausage . .
