By now, Jack Kennedy and
his wife may realize fully
what it is to live under, a
searchlight.
Their temple of privacy has
grown suddenly quite small. ,
The President's slightest act
Is news. Whether he swallows
a cuff link or merely bumps
his knee or has an artichoke
for lunch - it's news. Whether
he reads the comics or plays
jazz on the phonograph or has
a highball in the Oval Room --
It's news.
Few of the rest of us, in our
daily lives, could stand such
scrutiny.
If President Kennedy had
done just the aimless things I
have done today, for example,
it might have made odd read
ing, but It would have been
news.
Imagine Americans picking
up the paper and reading this:
President Kennedy woke up
late this morning feeling ex
tremely rocky. He was
plunged into a black mood
on discovering that the tooth
paste tube was squeezed abso
lutely empty.
The President cursed his
family quietly, so as not to
awaken the dogs, and brushed
his teeth with salt and baking
soda.
The President fried an egg
for breakfast., He always fries
his own eggs on his day off
because, frankly, nobody else
in the White House can fry
an egg without breaking the
yolk.
While walking from the
bathroom to the kitchen.xthe
President struck a corner of
the marble table with his left
shin. The table was recently
Installed by the First Lady.
The President hasn't got used
to it yet.
The President grabbed his
left leg, which soon began to
bleed, and cursed frightfully,
awakening everyone in the
White House including the
dogs, which began to bark.
The President refused hos
pitalization, explaining that
he did not wish to alarm the
nation. The First Lady put a
bandage on his leg. The First
Lady called the President a
baby.
At breakfast, the President
went through his mail. He be
came quite testy on discover
ing a bill for his Sigma Delta
Chi dues and spoke sharply
to the White House chief of
staff. She admitted forgetting
to mail the check.
The President studied a
catalogue from a Warren (Pa.)
textile manufacturing firm
and ordered two pairs of syn
thetic pants, blue for night
and beige for afternoon.
After breakfast, the Presi
dent conferred briefly with
the milkman, an insulation
salesman and a representative
of the Girls Scouts of Amer
ica. He answered a telephone
call which turned out to be
for Juan Rodriguez. A quick
check showed no Juan Rod
riguez living in the White
House.
.
Still vearlng his pajamas,
the President chatted ener
getically on the White House
doorstep With an apocalyptic
young man who said he had
come to advise the man of the
house that the world was
coming to an end.
"Don't I know it!" cried the
President, slamming the door.
The President then retired
to his den with the morning
paper to brief himself on
world affairs.
The First Lady later took
one of the cars (the '51 Ford
with no top) to buy a garden
trowel. She wore plum capri
pants, a boating sweater, ten
nis shoes and a baseball cap.
She drove herself.
The President, never too

Mr. H. Y. - My daughter
wants to quit school and go
on the stage.
Aida Y.-I want to quit and
study for the stage. That's different.
Mr. H. Y.-I thought my
daughter had more sense than
to let herself get stage-struck,
but no. She wants to transfer
from her freshman year in
teachers' college and be
come a showgirl
As a lawyer, I represent
many theater people. Aida has
met some of them, and has
heard me discuss some of my
experiences in theatrical cir
cles. Surely she must know
that she's not the type. Most
of the actresses are vain, self-
lsn and narcissistic. If they're
not the center of attention
at all times they're miserable.
Aidas a wholesome, sweet
kid. She'd never fit into that
tinselled, tawdry, knock-down
and drag-out business. On the
other hand, she'd make a
wonderful teacher. She's so
bright and patient, and has
such a way with children.
Im sure the theater can
get along without her and
she'd "be better off without
the theater. It's the schools
that need her. She belongs
there.
Aida Y.-Dad just hasn't met
the true representatives of
theater art, and he's repeating
the same old cliches which
insist that a life on the stage
is a life of sham and false
values.
"I'm 17 and have spent the
past two summers as an ap
prentice in a highly rated
summer stock company in
New England. I painted scen
ery, handled makeup, played
bit parts, and learned how
much blood, sweat and tears
go into a production. I have
a great respect for everyone
in me game, from the box
office treasurer in front to
the stage-door watchman in
back. I long to be part of it.
bnortly after college open
ed, I applied for admission to
the classes of The American
Theater Wing. To my delight,
1 was accepted. I may return
to teacher-training courses.
and I wish my father didn't
feel so tragic about my trans
fer. I'll still be getting a
wonderful education, includ
ing languages and writing.
The Council: Aida seems to
be on a sound track (not the
Hollywood kind) at present.
Mr. Y. can take heart from
two signs: first, the extent
of her skill has been deter
mined; second, she's not delu
sional or unrealistic. Her feet
are on the ground-the cold
bare floor of a stage with
slippery ladders.
Whether Aida stays with
the theater or not, her train
ing will have lifeling benefit
because it strives to teach her
to communicate effectively.
She'll learn poise and posture,
diction and voice projection.
Nervous, jagged mannerisms
will be eliminated, graceful
ness and self-control devel
oped. Even if she ends by
teaching or keeping house,
Aida can profit from such
courses as fencing, playwrit
ing and stage-lighting-to men
tion a few.
But should it become clear'
that the entertainment field
is her cup of tea. Mr. Y. can
be proud of his daughter and
cheer her along the hard
course because the genuine
trooper is not a poseur-not
the self-worshipper he knows
-but a sharer, a fenefactor,
and a benign magician who
wields great power for good.
Watch Danny Kaye lift peo
ple out of their stodgy selves.
Watch the lame leap across
a stage, in fancy, with Maria
Tallchief. When Jimmy Du
rante says Laugh, we laugh.
When Lily Pons approaches
a high C, we all stop breath
ing! In entering the heart of
show business, Aida will join
the ranks of true lovers of
humanity, not narrow lovers
of self.
"Ninety minutes is a long,
long time," sang Noel Coward
about a TV show. As actress
or teacher, Aida is learning
ways to make time fly for her
audiences. ,
Three Appear in
District Court
Three men appeared In dis
trict court yesterday.
Sentenced to five days in
the county jail for being
drunk on a public highway

Capitol Memo
Portland Exposition
Urged To Turn Over
Property To State
By DOUGLAS GRIPP
Salem (UPD A legislative
effort has begun to press
the Pacific International Live
stock Exposi
tion in Port
land to hand
its property
over to the
state.
Rep. George
A n n a 1 a (D
H o o d River)
suggested it
might serve
Douglas Gripp as a new sue
for Portland State college.
Annala urged the Joint
Ways and Means Committee
to, if necessary, "force" the
Oregon Centennial Commis
sion to keep its "promise" in
having the land turned over.
Annala said the stale has
invested more than $2 million
in the property - site of the
1959 Centennial Exposition
and International Trade Fair.
In a letter to Sen. Dan Thiol
and Rep. Clarence Barton, co
chairmen of Ways and Means,
Annala said "I'd like to re
mind you of a promise made
to the legislature in 1959 by
the Centennial Commission."
"Following the close of our
celebration, all the buildings
and property of the Pacific
International Livestock ex
position were to be turned
over to the Board of Higher
Education," Annala said.
"This has not materialized
and, unless aggressively pur
sued, will be forgotten by all
concerned and again the state
will be the loser."
Annala suggested the cen
tennial commissioners be in
vited before Ways and Means
and "encouraged, even forced,
to keep their promise."
Annala is vice chairman of
House Ways and Means.
A 3
Federal Crackdown
On Water Pollution
In State Promised
Salem -ll'PIl- A federal
crackdown on water pollution
in Oregon is promised if the
legislature passes a bill pro
posed by the city of Portland.
Leonard B. Dworsky, North
west director of the U. S. Pub
lic Health Service's water sup
ply and pollution program, ap
peared before the Senate Com
mittee on Local Government.
Would Nullify Efforts
He said that if SB138 was
approved it would "nullify the
efforts of the state's water pol
lution program." Then, he said
the government would have
to "do whatever necessary in
relation to pollution in the
Columbia and Willamette riv
ers. The committee took no ac
tion on SB138, or on SB36,
proposed by the State Sani
tary Authority. It suggested
a compromise be worked out.
Alexander Brown, Portland
city attorney, labeled the au
thority s legislation as "Utopian."
Harold Wcndcl, chairman of
the authority, charged ". , .
Portland has found more ways
to find delays than we thought
conceivable."
Difference Noted
Brown said the primary dif
ferences between the two bills
were:
(l)-The matter of stability.
The city would like a mini
mum period of 20 years before
the authority could order a
city or corporation to con
struct additional sewage con
trol facilities, once it had com
plied with an authority order,
Sen. Alfred Corbett, who
was Ways and Means chair
man in 1959, said he doesn't
think there was a commitment
to turn the property over to
higher education.
But the Portland Democrat
explained that the PI setup
involves two corporate groups,
one profit and tile other non
profit. The idea is that when
the profit group dissolves, the
property will go to the state
"eventually."
"I had hoped this would
have been accomplished by
now," he said.
Anthony Bran denlhaler,
commission chairman, said all
the commission can do is as
sist PI officials in the trans
fer. "They're moving as fast
as they can," he said.
IMPROVED LIGHT
New York - A modern elec
tric light bulb gives 10 times
as much illumination as the
first incandescent lamps and
at about one-tenth the cost.
and (2)-classification of tha
state's streams requested by
Portland because "the water
purity standards should not be
the same throughout the
state."
