When the Oregon Federation of Women's Republican, clubs accepted the invitation of Mrs. Mark Hatfield to give a tea at her home in Salem during an annual meeting and Republican "state day" March 16, it was thought about 200 would attend. As reservations began to come in, the figure was scaled upward. At length the worried committee, according to the grape vine reports in Salem, told Mrs. Hatfield that as many as 400 women might attend. However, it was thought that by extending the hours of the tea, and asking more .women to assist, that such a number could be managed. By noon last Thursday it was apparent that more than 700 women with a sprinkling of interested males, had stormed Salem to visit the legislature, hear the governor speak at luncheon and, presumably, attend the tea. If Mrs. Hatfield was agitated over this turn of events, she failed to show it during the luncheon. When Potpourri asked if she would pose for a picture, she did so readily, with the warm smile which is now familiar to thousands of Oregonians and others of the United States. She also said it would be possible to take more pictures during the tea. This we did that is, Joe Tompkins, a Salem photographer, took the pictures with the society editor doing a little beforehand arranging. The frightful crush of guests didn't make the project exactly easy. Since some of the Medford delegation were attending the business session, scheduled from 2 to 3 p.m., we had agreed to set up the pictures shortly after 3 o'clock. We made the trip as a guest passenger of Mrs. Murray Gardiner, and when the two of us arrived in sight of the Hatfield home, we both gasped. Cars and large buses were parked in all directions and the. line of women waiting to be received extended down the steps and walk and for almost a block down the sidewalk. It never was any shorter during the hour or so that it took us to find the Medford and Rogue River women. Some just gave up and went back down town when they saw the crowd. As fast as a group entered the house, others arrived in cars and added them selves lo the line. It rained, but only lightly, for which the determined guests were grateful. Those who waited and finally were inside were rewarded by a brief visit with the charming First Lady and a quick look around the living room, dining room, den and then were ushered out a side entrance. There was tea, of course, and trays of cookies. Potpourri and Photographer Tompkins wormed our way In the side entrance "against the tide" Mr. T. said he had been In the Hatfield home so often for pictures that it is almost as familiar to him as the Capitol and assured the society editor that It would be all right' to stand in the corner. This brought to mind a story in the Washington Post in which it was said that during President Eisenhower's terms, Mrs. Elsenhower arranged a grouping of palms and flowers In the corner of the state dining room, and other rooms in the White House where large parties were given, and requested that society reporters and photographers re main hidden as much as possible while taking notes and pictures. , At any rate, the long wait for the arrival of the Medford delegation through the slowly-moving line afforded an op portunity lo really enjoy the Hatifeld living room, and we agreed with the many others who have praised the governor and Oregon's First Lady for their excellent taste in re modeling and decorating. There are some truly handsome antique funiture pieces, lovely chandeliers, with pictures and other objects in the same mood. One table held a small arrangement of yellow tulips and pink snapdragons, a bowl was filled with daisies, and another bowl held a large quantity of Lenten roses. Another bouqel of daisies was in the hall, and what appeared to be a little artificial butter fly danced constantly in the air above the flowers., Since there was no time or space to examine this delightful touch, how it was managed remains a mystery. During our wait, Mrs. James Armpriest of Salem was receiving with the First Lady, and students from Willamette university were helping to keep the guests moving along through the rooms. We talked briefly with Norma Young, WU student from Klamath Falls. An unobtrusive by none theless efficient man, Oregon Police Sgt. William Newell, was also hovering nearby. Photographer T. volunteered the infor mation that the sergeant serves as the Hatfield's chauffuer and otherwise helps when and where he Is needed. At one point during the afternoon, as the inexorable line of women continued, we asked Mrs. Hatfield "How do vou do it?" and she smiled, fleetingly, and answered, "I have lots of wonderful people helping." At one point the sergeant stopped the women for a time and Mrs. Hatfield sat down for a few moments, sipping a cup of lea. A chair had been placed conveniently near, and from time to time she leaned briefly against the back lo rest, lo stand in a receiving line for three hours, constantly shaking hands, smiling and greeting guests, is considerable of an endurance test. Mrs. Hatfield wore a two-piece dress of soft green material possibly silk linen, with loops of henvy green and gold beads, and matching earrings. Her shoes wore black, high-heeled pumps, which seemed to be practically a uniform with women in Salem that day, whether residents or visit ors. We must have seen no less than 500 pairs of black pumps. We also saw hundreds of spring hats, some of which were masses of artificial flowers. Mrs. Hatfield wore one of these to the luncheon it was of small white flowers and looked well with her green dress. "She has lots of hats," said the photographer. "She like color, too. One of her hats Is red and she looks wonderful In it." Mr. Tompkins, we decided was hnl-mlndcd. When we saw him after luncheon he inquired if Governor Hatfield had said anything about the women's hats before beginning his luncheon address. Told that the governor had mentioned the bright, spring bonnets, Mr. T. grinned and said that when he talked briefly with Mr. Hatfield Just before luncheon, he had said "There's some mighty pretty lints in there, governor." The governor took the hint. Potpourri believes that Oregon should build a suitable house lo be used as the governor's residence. It is obvious that a governor and his wife arc expected to be hosts for many extremely large social functions, and the state should own a house which is adequate in all respects for such enter taining.
