Mrs. Kennedy Changing
Roles for Inauguration
By PATRICK YOUNG
United Presg International
Washington-IUPII- Mrs. John
Kennedy will watch her hus
band take the oath of office
as the 35th president of the
United States on January 20,
only eight years after she cov
ered the first inauguration of
President Eisenhower as a
combination reporter- photog
rapher-artist.
Her name was Jacqueline
Bouvier then and she was
working for the Washington
Times-Herald.
A warm winter sun flooded
the inauguration day crowd
as she moved through the
streets, recording her impres
sions with ink drawings. The
following day, her story and
art work appeared and graph
ically captured the inaugura
tion day spirit. Her drawings
included a woman eating a
box lunch, a dancing Indian
and a digni'icd, homburg
wearing diplomat buying a
hot dog.
Jackie" was only 23, but
in the year she had been
working for the paper, her
inquiring camera girl fea
ture had become well known
in the capital.
Strange Events
It seemed strange that the
girl who had been voted the
"most beautiful debutante" of
1948 in Newport, R.I., and
New York, would become a
cub reporter.
But Jacqueline wanted to
become a writer, even at
$42.50 a week.
As inquiring photographer,
she asked some questions
which were to become impor
tant to her in later years,
They included: "Should a can'
didate's wife campaign with
her husband? Do you think in
auguration day should follow
closer upon election day? How
does a candidate's looks in
fluence your vote?"
Among the people she in
terviewed were Vice Presi
dent and Mrs. Richard M.
Nixon, Mrs. Morrij Cafritz.
Washington hostess, two of
Mamie Eisenhower's nieces
and the man she later married
Sen. John F. Kennedy, the
Senate's then most eligible
bachelor.
Her camera and note pad
recorded the views of Nixon
and Kennedy in 1953 when
she asked them about the Sen
ate pages. The also asked the
pages about the senators.
"I would predict that some
future statesman will come
from the ranks of the page

corps," Vice President Nixon
told Jacqueline Bouvier. "I
notice that they are very
quick boys, most of whom
have a definite interest in pol
itics. I've often thought that the
country might be better off if
we senators and the naces
traded jobs," Kennedy said.
Said Jerry Hoobler, a page,
"Senator Kennedy's always
being mistaken for a tourist
by the cops because he looks
so young. The other day he
wanted to use- the special
phones, and they told him,
'Sorry, mister, but these are
reserved for senators."
Jacqueline also interviewed
Nixon's daughter, Patricia,
shortly after her father was
elected vice president.
"What do you think of Sen
ator Nixon now?" was the
question.
"He's always away," an
swered Miss Nixon, then six.
"If he's famous why doesn't
he stay home?"
Jacqueline ended her repor
torial career shortly before
her marriage to Kennedy with
coverage of Queen Elizabeth's
coronation in June, 1953.
She returned to the United
States and on September 12,
1953, she married John F.
Kennedy in one of the biggest
society weddings of the year.
A short time ago, a reporter
asked Mrs. Kennedy if she
had really written the column
herself.
"Listen, I wouldn't sign my
name to anything I didn't
write," she said flatly.
Californians
Visitors Here
Mr. and Mrs. Walter Ander
son and three sons, Virgil,
Russell and Jimmy, San Ber

their home after spending
Christmas here with Mrs.
Anderson's mother, Mrs. Opal
Cox, and her two sisters, Mr.

and Mrs. Eugene Gemaehlich,
402 North Ross lane. Mrs.
Cox makes her home with

This was the first time in

been together for Christmas.
The reunion was enlivened by
the sudden illness of the An

Outhwaite is research con
sultant to the Nature Centers
For Young America, Inc., a
recently formed organization
to encourage villages, towns
and cities to set aside - "while
there is still time" - some
part of the natural setting
nearby for use, not as a for
mal park, but to preserve the
native flora and fauna ... a
big slice of the area as it was
before organization set in.
Preserve Or Be Engulfed
"The bulldozers have level
ed the life out of the hills and
the fields," says the center's
brochure. Outhwaite adds, "If
we don't start preserving
soon, we'll be engulfed."
"In so many parts of Ameri
ca already," Outhwaite con
tinued, "you drive 25 to 30
miles outside the city limits
. . . still past nothing but
housing developments."
"There is no time to waste,"
he continued, in an interview.
And the urgency with -which
the anthropologist talked cre
ated visions immediately of a
land one day bare of the
things we used to take for
granted - fields, trees, grass,
native flowers, streams and
wildlife.
"The centers would be used
for both relaxation and edu
cation," he said. "A way to
teach children botany, zool
ogy, conservation-better than
they ever could learn them
from books."
Looks For Locations
The anthropologist recently
completed a 14,000-mile mo
tor trip around the nation
looking for likely locations
for nature centers, for zoologi
cal parks and museums.
He said many communities
already are aware of how
urbanization is cutting back
nature and are doing some
thing about it. Stamford,
Conn., is one of the pioneers
arid has set aside close to 100
acres of streams and wood
land.
Outhwaite was secretary to
the President's Committee on
Demobilization after World
War II and wrote the commit
tee report which became the
"GI Bill of Rights." At pres
ent, he also is a member of
the advisory board of RCA's
