10 A Women's President - Elect, Family Plan Vacation in Florida ; ( By PAT HERMAN United Preu International Hyannis Port, Mass. - lUPU -Mrs. John F. Kennedy hoped today for a holiday in the Florida sunshine with her president-elect husband to re lax from the tensions of the arduous campaign that has kept, them apart for the past two'months. ; The Kennedys and their daughter, Caroline, who will turn three Nov. 27, expected to fly to Palm Beach Friday or Saturday. They probably will remain there for 10 days to two weeks in the mansion of Kennedy's father, Joseph P. Kennedy, former ambassa dor to the Court of St. James. For the president elect, whose victory Tuesday cli maxed one of the most gruel ling campaigns in presidential election history, the rest is essential. It is also a must for his wife, who is expecting a baby in early December. For both of the Kennedys, the 'Vacation will .mean as much privacy as security per mits, and it may be one of their few .leisure periods to . gether before entering the White House. For blonde, blue-eyed Caroline, the Flor ida 1rip will be perhaps the last chance to be alone with her parents before the arrival date for the new baby. I LET'S HAVE A PARTY .

The entire Kennedy clan, 12 strong in addition to Caro line and the senator, gathered here to sit out election night. Mrs. Kennedy's sistor-in-law, Mrs. Eunice Shriver, describ ed it as "the longest night in history." Mrs, Kennedy, who is shy, has not held any formal news conferences since the election victory, nor is she expected to do so. She has scheduled no public post-election ap pearances, except for the vic tory appearance with her hus band after Vice President Richard M. Nixon conceded defeat Tuesday. The Secret Service has now made the Kennedy premises virtually inaccessible to strangers. But Mrs. Kennedy has been seen walking along the beach casually attired in a raincoat and watching the other apparently Indefatigable Kennedys practicing their own brand of touch football. Mother, Family Leave for Home Horse Creek, Calif. - Mrs. Vernon Blankc, daughter of Mrs. Betty Hambright, Horse Creek, returned to her home this morning in Garden Grove, Calif., after visiting her moth er and sister, Mrs. Charles Apple, also Horse Creek, for the last two weeks.

Doty, personnel secretary. Other officers are retain ing their positions for the second year of their two-year terms. Message Given The retiring president gave her parting message to the membership, thanking them for their cooperation and ask ing for their continued help as they work with the new president and staff. The noon luncheon was served in the dining hall of the church and the Rev. Har old Sanner, pastor of the host church, gave the table devo tions. Mrs. B. M. Hoover di rected group singing as guests were seated about the tables and sang a special selection as a tribute to the outgoing president. The formal program was held in the church sanctuary with Mrs. L. B. Pierce, chair man, in charge. -She introduced- the Rev. Thomas Mc Cammant, who installed new officers. A trio composed of Mrs. Paul Molloy, Mrs. Roy Eskcw and Mrs. Norman Gail, Gold Hill, sang two selections ac companied by Mrs. John Bruce, also Gold Hill. Debaters Appear A debate team from Mcd ford High school composed of Mike Higgins, Susy Thomp son, Judy Sims, Carl Wash burn and John Alansky spoke on "Resolved, that the United Nations Should be Trans formed Into a Federal Gov ernment." Among ideas expressed were that "standards of the individual should be upheld" and that "much of the trend today is to assist in dissolving differences." It was stressed that "nations need not give up all their differences but that disturbances could be overcome through education al means thus teaching the world lo accept differences through better understanding of one another' The great need, as the de baters see it, is to maintain a federal government under the United Nations. Mrs. Waller Higgins led in 1 the responsive reading and Mrs. Milton Snow was at the organ for the afternoon. Under the theme, "Christ ian Action for Freedom," Mrs. Omar Bacon reviewed "Peace, Policy and People." Mrs, Bacon said that there is a greater need than ever before for people of the churches to help build a realistic and last ing peace. A new importance has been placed on the in dividual and his needs and several factors have con tributed to this fact, she said. Technological and scientific advances with additional sources of energy and new weapons of mass destruction, the expanding Influence of Communism, nationalism and the end of Colonialism, and t h e increasing population growth are all factors which have changed the world, bringing new governments to power and establishing new ways of living for millions of people, Mrs. Baron said. Mrs. Bacon stressed the im portance of being aware of 1 the vast changes being made and urged all to become in- formed and to feel deep con cern for the state of the world. Junior Service league members who worked on the Champagne Supper, given last Saturday night at the Country club, are looking back on the event with a glow of satisfac tion. It was that kind of a party. The food was excellent, the small style show was a great success and the decorations were acclaimed by one and all as being "Just right." Some benefit parties go off well, and others don't.. This was one that did. We have no idea how long it took to put up the four large white and gold columns to the "Dinner with Caesar" right. The columns looked as the Starlight room, with its Pedestals arranged near the the room were spotlighted, she was "picked up" in the backdrop, before continuing on in to the dining room. Mrs. Rodger Stcrton and Mrs. James Shaw were co- chairmen for the event, and the committee responsible for the decorations. With Mrs. William Barnum, Mrs. H. S. Deuel Jr., Mrs. Floyd Hart Jr., Mrs. H. Dewey Wilson, Mrs. Welch and Mrs. G. S. Tumy all working, the pillars were ar ranged and the tables centered with big bunches of purple grapes. Menus were in Roman colors of purple and gold. The fashion show was confined to formal evening wear and "at home" clothing and the eight models met with loud applause as they posed on the pedestals -and then paraded down the room and across the stage. Mrs. Houston Pitts was the first model in, and the gold brocade gown she wore set the tone of the evening. It was a simply cut two-piece frock with a slight peplum, but the elegent material made it out standing. Shimmering gold hose accented the gown. Next in the spotlight was Mrs. Carl Wimberly Jr., wearing tapered wool pants of autumn gold with a rather unusual jacket of hamster fur in gold, brown and white tones banded in velvet. This is a season of fur, and since the designers put fur on everything, why not a fur lounging jarket? Particularly one of hamster, a soft, delicate fur. Mrs.. Donald Herricd modeled furs for street and party wear, and made one appearance during the show wearing a sumptuous white fox stole over a gold brocade evening gown. Mrs. John Lynch wore one gown which seemed to be made for the room and the evening. It was a white chiffon creation with quilted bodice and a gold velvet belt. Acces sories were stressed for this show, and her pumps were gold and her long evening gloves were white. In contrast to the white frock was a black taffeta evening gown modeled by Mrs. O. J. Halboth. The skirt was a slim column to the knee and there it flared out stiffly in a big ruffle over net, and a huge pin of brilliants was placed just at the flare-line. The decollete neckline was cut in one point and the accessories were a long black stole and black gloves. Mrs. Walter Graff had been scheduled to model a pair of gold lame evening trousers, but these failed to arrive at the store. She wore instead a pair of gold and green trousers of extremely large plaid, and she could scarcely have been any more of a sensation had she worn the gold lame outfit. Mrs. Graff completed her costume with a bulky green sweater and shoulder-length earrings; her accessories in cluded a fake bottle of beer and a copy of Life. Mrs. Richard Reum's costumes for the evening included a white gown with a green evening wrap which was be coming to her dark coloring. Most fashion conscious women will agree that for the last word in elegance, there is nothing to surpass a really gorgeous ball gown, and Mrs. Frank Hopewell modeled such a gown. It was of red satin, bedecked with sequins and other glitter and its billowing skirt was yards and yards around. To close the show the eight lovely models, carrying champagne glasses, grouped themselves in the center of the room and Mrs. Wimberly proposed a toast to the success of the Service league's kindergarten for hard-of-hearing children, which was benefited by the party. Potpourri went to the event in a poor frame Of mind, but couldn't stay that way very long. Once seated at the dinner table, we forgot about a disabled foot and the fact that since we could wear only heavy, flat shoes, we couldn't very well wear anything but a conservative dress. (We might have been even gloomier had later x-rays proved the fact bit of gravel in the intersection of Main and Fir streets Thursday noon, we broke a bone in one foot.) Across the dinner table were the Arlon Skinners Mrs. Skinner was chairman of the style show and Mr. Skinner and Pappy were soon deep and motorcycles. Both men thusiasts, and Mr. Skinner said that of all the sports he has tried, the bike racing is the most difficult and exciting At present Mr. Skinner is spending many week ends enter ing boat races at various northern Californa spots. Mrs. Skinner couldn't concentrate on anything but worry over the coming style show. Later we learned that in ad dition to staging the show, she had made some of the acces sories. Mrs. Hopewell made an entrance during the show wearing one of these floating creations sometimes called a pegnoir. Eli was carrying a little frying pan and pancake turner simply covered in glittering sequins, Mrs. Skinner's work. Mrs. Skinner said that half of the women who looked at the fragle pegnoir said "I'd like to see someone fry an egg while wearing that!"'So match the pegnoir. Mrs. Skinner was wearing rhinestones at the neckline. Dr. and Mrs. Robert M. Turner of Ashland were also at the table, and Mrs. Turner wore the ever-fashionable, black with rhinestones. The Robert Taylors completed the table company, and Mrs. Taylor, wear ing a gown of brown trimmed with feathers, had her hair in one of the fashionable beehive arrangements. The League members have party the room would have held about 20 more couples, and that much more money would have been netted for the kindergarten. The champagne supper is given on alternate years with the Follies on the attract a capacity guest list. Group reporters having urged to bring it in on Friday as usual. The society gals will be on duty until the usual deadline of 1 p.m. If you call Potpourri on the phone, as usual, be patient. With only one good foot, we re not exactly grounded, but flying slower than usual. O.S. She stressed prayer and de votion to Christian principles. "These things we can do," she concluded, "to help shape a policy bringing peace to all the people of the world." Pictures were shown by Mrs. Pierce which depicted the creat needs of tho ronn. tries to which the packaged clothing gathered f ?r the day, will be sent.
