Bock Stairs: A Kennedy Characteristic By MERRIMAN SMITH UPI White House Reporter Palm Beach, Fla. - IUP0 -' Back stairs with President elect John F. Kennedy: The Democratic president elect flew Wednesday from his vacation home here to Texas for an overnight meet ing with his running mate, Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson. And therein lies a characteristic. Kennedy earlier this week made the first move to heal some of the wounds of the recent campaign when he called up and invited himself to a meeting with Vice Presi dent Richard M. Nixon. Kennedy did not ask Nixon to come to Palm Beach as ninny another election victor might have done. He went to the vanquished and met Nixon in Miami where the vice presi dent is sunning away some of his campaign fatigue. The Same Pattern The trip to Texas follows much the same pattern. Ken- nedy did not wait for Johnson to fly to his side. The presi dent-elect chose the gesture of making the trip to the home of his running mate. The president - elect also would have been quite ready and willing to buzz off to Augusta, Ga to see President Eisenhower, but the incum bent chief executive invited him only to a meeting at some undertermined, future date. Kennedy knows that Eisen hower is on a holiday and he presumes there will be time enough to see each other when both of them complete their southern holidays and return to Washington The president-elect sets up things like his jaunt to Texas and his conference with Nixon without a great deal of deliberation. The idea may even origi nate with someone else, but regardless of the source, if Kennedy likes the idea, he acts swiftly. Currently, he does not at tach a great deal of import ance to protocol and some of this refreshing attitude of casualncss may ckrry over into his life in The White House. t : : PHIL, !i iw.wi I ' 1 mii aqpgyy .nil mm&mmmQ, 1 rv1' 'ip w&' "V qp g)mm 'yami mimm .

Each was something he thought he should do and he did it. The casual informality of his family life will be a wel come breath of fresh air in side the White House, itself, And this is just a friendly warning to the house staff, particularly the ushers: If you like your work, be a mite careful in trying to im press your concepts of life In the executive mansion on the Kennedy family. They know what it is to live in a large house with lots of servants, and they're about as unlike the Eisenhowers, with their sense of formality, as any family you'll ever meet. Likes Hot Dogi The While House staff may as well realize it right now -their new boss likes hot dogs and soda, pop, tomato soup with sweet whipped cream, milk shakes and chili. And like many members of large families, he sees nothing odd about strolling around the house in his pajamas. It will be interesting to know what the president-elect says the first time a Whits House butler, steeped in. time honored tradition, serves him ahead of his wife. The butler might be wise to check first. 256 Foreign Student Enrolled in College Corvallis -A total of 258 foreign students from other countries ranging from Aus tralia to Viet Nam are attend ing Oregon State college this year, according to Dr. Clara Simerville, foreign student counselor.
