MARJORIE POST MAY
Marjorie Post May is exciting because
she doesn't know the meaning of leisure
even though she is a great beauty, a
great charmer, and one of the richest
women in America.
She looks after her grain and cereal
empire as her father trained her to do.
She personally supervises her 60-room
home in Washington, which is complete
with an air-conditioned wing for her 32
servants, a movie theater walled in royal
blue velvet, and acres upon acres of
gardens graced with Japanese cedars, a
waterfall, and flowers beyond descrip
tion. In addition, she keeps several suites
on reserve in Washington hotels for any
weekend guests she cannot accommodate
at her home. She entertains on a gigantic
but incredibly efficient scale.
She is completely conversant with the
movie and television career of her beau
tiful daughter Dina Merrill.
She has a good life with her devoted
husband Herbert May and sees to it that
they spend considerable time at their
house in Pittsburgh, his home town.
She supports the Washington Ballet
and does great good with her Music for
Young America, through which scholar
ships are granted to aspiring musicians.
An incredible woman, Marjorie Post
May. I am glad to be her friend. When
ever I find myself harassed by the variety '
of things I have to do, I sit back, take a
deep breath, and remember the poise
with which she handles all phases of her
ceaselessly demanding existence.
THE PRESIDENT AND
MRS. KENNEDY
I have known the President and Mrs.
Kennedy for a long time. When Jacque
line was awaiting Caroline, she used to
spend an occasional afternoon with me
at my New York apartment. She and her
husband have attended my parties.
I have always been intrigued by the
quiet understanding between them. Un
like many wives, Jackie even gives evi
dence of having understanding of Jack's
great attraction for women an attrac
tion which springs from his electric
vitality, delightful humor, and almost
courtly manners.
During the Presidential campaign, I
urged Jackie to do something about her
husband's hair to use bobby pins, if
necessary, to keep it down. I told her he
must not look so young.
I must admit that, although I never
doubted his brilliance, I did have misgiv
ings about his youth. But either I under
estimated John F. Kennedy or he learned
fast. Probably a little of both is true.
Historians tell us that when there is
need for a great leader one appears. In
truth, men frequently exhibit an inspir
ing ability to rise to the occasion.
Our President, with his great sense of
history, cares very much for our coun
try and goes out of his way to show it.
He has made mistakes. He undoubtedly
will make others. But I am satisfied that
his mistakes will pale beside the things
he will accomplish.
It seems to me that Jacqueline also
emerged overnight into the sort of wom
an the First Lady of the United States
should be and too rarely is. I have al
ways found her charming and attractive.
But the sensitive know-how she dis
played from Inauguration Day on has
astounded me. I obviously underesti
mated her, too.
I do not find Jackie as beautiful as
many proclaim her. Nor do I consider
her one of the world's best-dressed wom
en. I think she is too small to carry
clothes with any great authority. I ap
plaud her for far more important things:
for the way she entertains; for the credit
she does ub abroad; for her genuine in
terest in artists and. scientists; for the
feeling of history with which she is re
decorating the White House.
As our President and First Lady, as
man and wife, and as individuals, Jack
and Jacqueline Kennedy are indeed in
teresting and imposing figures.
