Mr. Thollander'a art, though
truly contemporary, defies
categories and he belongs to
no "school." It has been said
of his work that it is based
on "controlled experiment in
color, design and texture."

tions of oils with subjects
originating in Russia and Mex
ico as well as the Sun Fran
cisco area. His recent efforts
as an illustrator were for two
children's books, "Ramon"
and "The Hullabaloo ABC",
published by the Parnassus
Press of Berkeley, Calif. He
also illustrated the recently
published Sunset "Gourmet
Cook Book."
For many years Mr. Thol
lander painted almost exclu
sively in casein, but recently
has been working in a new
medium, acrylic polymer
latex.
Alex Fried, art critic of the
San Francisco Examiner, re
cently wrote of Mr. Tholland
er "In all his work he shows
a rare and valuable independ
ence. He isn't a man to take
the easy way by hopping on
the bandwagon; he builds his
vision and expression from
within himself."
A graduate of San Francisco
college and the University of
California, Mr. Thollander
also attended the California
School of Fine Arts and the
Academy of Art and the Art
League of California. His
work has been shown in many
parts of the United States and

Wednesday morning when we should have been busy
with the house-wifely chores of our "day off." we spent a
considerable time watching three small birds. Since the
tiny birds were so small, we finally got out the opera
glasses, even though they were feeding only a short distance
away under the walput trees next door.
These three little creatures were-doing something we
had never seen birds do before-they were eating dandelion
seeds. Anyhow, that's what it looked as if they were doing
Each was clinging to one of the large dandelion stalks,
and as they picked away at the tops, the white seed para
chutes would sail away in the wind.
Although we find it quite difficult to determine colors
or markings on small birds , while looking through the
glasses, the largest of the three appeared to have greenish-
colored feathers underneath, with the remainder being grey
or black. The wings had a small spot of white. His two
companions were some-what smaller, and less colorful.
Having heard friends and neighbors talk about "wild
canaries" we got out Peterson's guide to Western birds and
looked under the C's only to discover that there is no list
ing for canary. Birds, we decided are very frustrating. We
have trouble enough trying to Identify wild flowers, and
flowers don't take wing and disappear just about the time
we get ready to make mental note of color, size, etc.
Now that the Rev. Tom McCamant has left the valley,
we may never get up enough courage to pester anyone
else with our questions about birds. Somehow, Mr. Mc
Camant almost always could make sense out of our meager
information.
Yesterday was one of those days when we made a feeble
attempt to tidy up the room at home which we call our
second office. As usual, we began on one of the numerous
stacks of papers and clippings, and after reading and sort
ing for an hour, managed to sort out a small number for
discard. The others we laid back for further reading, filing,
or to send along to someone we know will be Interested.
Once more we marveled at the endless variety of in
formation in the modern newspaper. A clipping from the
New York Times, snipped out by Pal Peg, revealed the in
teresting fact that as of late March, the Democratic Na
tional committee had not yet paid the musicians who played
for the gala benefit performance on - the eve of President
Kennedy's inauguration. The story said the musicians were
getting a little restive,, but that Sam Jack Kaufman, presi
dent of the Musicians' local In Washington, wasn't worried.
He declared that it was nothing new to wait for wages after
an' inauguration.
Another clipping from the Times was all about Senator
Milton R. Young, of North Dakota, the man who brought
the John Birch society to national attention. The senator
probably wishes that he had never heard of the society.
According to the Times story, Senator Young "has one of
the most impeccably orthodox conservative voting records
in the Senate" and "fits the Easterner's dream, of the right
wing prairie Republican." - Yet the startled Senator Young
has been called a dictator by members of the society and
has been warned that since he does not approve of the
group's plan to do away with the income tax and other
activities of the federal government, members will attempt
to defeat him at his next election.
Next we read that Richard Rodgers and Alan Jay Lerner,
have Joined forces to write a musical. Mr. Rodgers for many
years collaborated with the late Oscar Hammerstein II, mak
ing up the famous team of Rodgers and Hammerstein, and
Mr. Lerner's partner has been the composer Frederick
Loewe. Rumor has it that the two men have parted com
pany: .
We also read about the new French chef hired by Presi
dent and Mrs. Kennedy-hls name is Rene Verdon, he is 36
years old and 1 said to have "an impressive culinary back
ground here and abroad." The story also said that the new
chef would be paid out of President Kennedy's personal
funds, and detailed the menu which was served for a lunch
eon at which Prime Minister MacmlUan had been the chief
guest.
It began with trout cooked in Chablis wine and served
with sauce Vincent, a mayonnaise seasoned with chopped
watercress, spinach and capers. The principal course was
roast fillet of beef au Jus and artichoke bottoms Beaucalre
filled with fondue of tomatoes simmered in butter. Giant
sized asparagus followed as a separate course with sauce
Maltaise, a version of Hollandaise sauce flavored with
orange. .
A vacherln (meringue shell) filled with raspberries and
chocolate ice cream was served as dessert. The latter, dubbed
desir d'avrtl by the chef, was garnished with whipped cream
and candled violets.
One presumes that neither of the Kennedys have yet
Teached the stage where they are forced to count calories.
..
The news, of course, runs heavily to the Kennedys. One
reads that Mrs. Kennedy has borrowed 11 art works from
the Boston Museum of Fine Arts to hang in the White House,
and that the museum director says she has "discriminating
tastes." This is part of the First Lady's plan to "help broaden
the knowledge and appreciation of American artists and
craftsmen."
We tore out for tiling the Family Weekly story about
Oleg Cassini, Mrs. Kennedy's designer. We like Mr. Cas
slni's ideas about clothes. "To be really elegant, you need
monastic dignity," is Mr. C's advice to women about cloth
ing. "I think if there is one piece of advice I would readily
give to women in general, it's; 'be simple.' Take off acces
sories and bows Instead of adding them."
Every mail brings its quota of interesting reading. We
have on our desk the publication of the Parker Pen com
pany, sent along by Sister Peg from Centralla, Washington.
One paragraph went thusly: According to a story recently
in the Washington News: Atlanta's Mayor William B. Harts-!
field received a letter from the White House and returned
It to the President's press secretary, Pierre Salinger, with
a note saying, "Maybe I m a prize boob, but whose signa
ture is this?" Salinger answered: "That happens to be the
signature of John F. Kennedy ."-O. S.
