Backstairs: Denver, Once
Spot, Now Frustrates Him
Ike's Favorite Vacation
By FRANK ELEAZER
Uniltd Press International
Denver -IUPII- This used to
be one of President Elsenhow
er's favorite vacation spots.
Now he finds it sort of frus
trating. The one thing he simply
hadn't been able to find
around here is a sea-level golf
course.
It wax here, at the home of
his mother-in-law, Mrs. Elive
ra Doud, on Lafayette st., that
Ike suffered a serious heart
attack in 1095.
Since then, he comes to the
mile-high city only on short
visits. One reason is that his
doctor, Howard Snyder, takes
a cautious approach to exer
cise at high altitude by the
country's number one former
heart patient.
Ike's favorite sport Is golf.
He has been playing daily at
Newport, R. I., where he and
Mamie have been vacationing
for the past couple of weeks.
He also likes to fish.
Doc Snyder for a year or so
after Ike's recovery didn't
want him to come back to
Denver at all. Later he cased
the ban provided the Presi
dent agreed not to attempt
any strenuous sport.
That has tended to rule out
most of Ike's vacation fun.
Cherry Hills Country club,
his favorite course here, is a
hilly layout that he usually
played by electric cart even
before he had his attack. His
favorite fishing spot is at
Frascr, Colo., which is some
4,000 feet higher than Den
ver. Oh well, Doc Snyder has
nothing at all against bridge,
at any altitude.
The President and Mamie
used to stay while here in the
house with Mrs. Doud. Now
she is seriously ill - that's why
they are back-and they stay
at the Brown Palace hotel.
This is a big-orantc, opulent
establishment reminiscent of
the old West at its finest. If
Ike and Mamie can be said
to lack for any attention here
it probably is the salutes and
parades and retreats and flag
raising. And other such mili
tary manifestations that have
punctuated their stay at New
port. At the Naval base there,
where Eisenhower has been
attending to White House
chores, they don't Just hoist
the flag in the morning. They
turn out the band, march it
over the hill past Ike's office,
and stand the whole place at
attention during the playing
of The Star Spangled Banner.
The other morning the
bandsmen figured to liven
things up. They paraded past
the summer White House with
a presentably hot rendition of
"When The Saints Go March
ing In."
Nobody had told them, ap
parently, that Ike can't do
much for jazz. He's more the
Lawrence Welk type.

DICK KNIGHT CO.
8th at Riverside V Medford
ning mate. The GOP was jolt
ed by the disclosure that Nix
on had accepted $18,235 from
a group of California sup
porters to help pay his po
litical expenses as a senator.
Went Before Nation
Many Republicans, afraid
that the episode would cost
the GOP the election, demand
ed that Nixon be dropped
from the ticket.
Nixon broke off his cam
paigning In Portland, Ore.,
and flew to Los Angeles to
defend his acceptance of the
money In a nationwide radio
TV broadcast.
At 9:30 p.m., Tuesday, Sept.
23, he went on the air. Speak
ing with great emotion, he de
tailed his personal finances
and said none of the expense
fund went for his personal
use.
. About halfway through the
SO-minute program, Nixon
glanced down at his hand
written notes on a yellow
foolscap, then looked into the
camera and said:
"One other thing I prob
ably should tell you, because
if I don't they'll (the Demo
crats) probably be saying this
about me, too. We did get
something -a gift -after the
election.
"A man down in Texas
heard Pat on the radio men
tion the fact that our two
youngsters would like to have
a dog. And believe it or not
before we left on this trip we
got a mesage from Union
Station in Baltimore saying
they had a package for us.
We went down to get it. You
know what it was.
Many Viewers Wept
"It as a little Cocker Span
iel dog in a crate that he sent
all the way from Texas. Black
and white spotted. And our
little girl-Tricia, the 6-year-old-named
it Checkers. And
you know the kids love that
dog and I just want to say
this right now, that regard
less of what they say about
it, we're going to keep it."
Democrats denounced the
speech as a "soap opera." Re
publicans hailed it as a mas
terpiece. Many viewers were
reported to have wept.
Thousands of telegrams and
letters of support flooded
GOP headquarters. Nixon
stayed on the ticket, which
won and was re-elected in
1956.
Checkers was left out of
this week's Chicago festivities
and now has to share the
Nixon's affection with an
other pel, a cat.
But he's won his place in
American political history be
cause that TV program Is best
remembered as the "Check
ers" speech.
