Washinglon-HJPII-The inaug.
uration of a new U.S. Presi
dent is democracy's biggest
extravaganza.
It combines in one wildly
colorful package the pomp
and ceremony of a British
coronation, the exuberance of
a World Series crowd, the
dazzling display of a Rose
Bowl parade and the social
whirl of a dozen debutante
seasons.
All signs indicate that the
Inauguration o f President
John F. Kennedy Jan. 20 will
be the biggest and splashiest
this capital has seen since
Franklin D. Roosevelt look
office in 1933 and told a depression-panicked
nation that
"the only thing we have to
(ear is fear itself.
The Inaugural Committee
began by ordering construc
tion of stands for 15,000 spec
tators along the 8-mile route
of the inaugural parade. That
figure was based on the de
mand for seats at Dwight D
Eisenhower's second-term in
augural in 1957. But the de
mand for tickets has been so
great, from all parts of the
country, that officials raised
the sealing order to 35,000
and then to 60,000,

"The official swearing-in
ceremony will take place at
noon Jan. 20 in the great
plaza of the U.S. Capitol
building. This is the ceremony
at which Kennedy takes his
oath of office and delivers his
inaugural address.
Relatively few of the in
augural visitors will be able
to watch this historic event
in person. The Secret Service
doesn't like a crowd of stand
ees at an outdoor ceremony
at which the President will
be exposed for more than an
hour. So admission to the
ceremony is by ticket only,
and there is room in the plaza
for stands seating only about
8,000 persons.
Tickets to the ceremony
are at a premium ("harder to
get than 50-yard line scats
at the Army-Navy game," ac
cording to one harassed con
gressman) and are being ra
tioned on the basis of 12 for
each senator, 8 for each House
member.
But disappointed applicants
will be able to watch the cere
mony, along with millions of
other Americans, on televi
sion. The parade will begin im
mediately after the ceremony
at the Capitol,
It's supposed to run for 2
hours and 25 minutes, but
veterans of many inaugural
parades laugh wearily at this
optimistic time-table. They re
member too many occasions
on which the parade ran two
or three hours overtime.
Main Attractions .
The main attractions, of
course, will be President Ken
nedy, Vice President Lyndon
B. Johnson and their wives.
It has not been announced
whether Dwight D. Eisenhow
er will ride in the parade with
his young successor. But two
other ex-presidents-Harry S.
Truman and Herbert Hoover
-have accepted invitations to
share In the cheers of the
crowd along historic Pennsyl
vania Ave.
Kennedy, Johnson and theirand other new weapons from
distinguished guests will ride i all the services.
in the first section of the pa
rade, and wii debark at a
specially b u 1 It reviewing
stand in front of the White
House, from which they will
watch the remaining units go
by.
The theme of the parade is
"World Peace Through New
Frontiers," and each of the
floats will feature some aspect
of the theme.
There will be 40 marching
military units, totaling 15,800
men, including the cadets of
all service academies and
bands from all of the services.
One of the military units
in the parade will be a PT
boat, last of its type in com
mission. Brought here from
Panama City, Fla., it will be
"floated" down Pennsylvania
Ave. by veterans of the PT
boat crew which Kennedy,
then a Navy lieutenant, com
manded in the Solomon Is
lands during World War II.
Also on display in the pa
rade will be models of Army
and Navy missiles, the Air
Force's B70 and X15 aircraft,
Each of the 50 states will
have a section in the parade,
led by its governor riding in
a -new convertible, and in
cluding "one band of not more
than 100 members, one float,
and one marching unit of not
more than 200 persons," ac
cording to the official regu
lations. Passing Word
Officials are passing the
word that parade units must
keep up with the line of
march and maintain good dis
cipline. Parade Chairman F.
Joseph Donohue explained
that these precautions grew
out of a review of films taken
during previous inaugural pa
rades. "We saw such horrors as
the cowboy who lassoed the
President in 1953, the gov
ernors who stopped their cars
in front of the reviewing
stand to make presentations
of local products, and the
marching units which held up
the parade while they went
through complicated maneu
vers," said Donohue.
Please, boys, don't ham it up
for the TV audience.
After the parade ends (and
it will seem endless to the
officials trapped In the re
viewing stand) President and
Mrs; Kennedy will have a few
hours rest before setting
forth for the Inaugural ball.
The ball is being neia in
three sections in order to ac-
of about 19,000 persons. The '
Kennedys will appear at all
sections.
Sometime long after mid.
night, the new President will
make his weary way to bed,
the inaugural ordeal behind
him, and nothing to worry
about except running tha ,
country for the next four
years.
