SEE OUR CHRISTMAS DECORATING MATERIALS" 12- FOOT CHRISTMAS GARLAND WITH THIS AD Cycle & Hobby Shop 23 North Fir 772-2472 ; The famous entertainer stopped suddenly in front of a microphone and said plain tively, ' When I came here tonight, I was a young man." President Kennedy and thousands of culture lovers must have felt somewhat the same as the program con tinued for another 54 min utes. The event was the kick off of a nation-wide drive to rai.se $:i0 million for a Na tional Cultural center in the nation's capital. One distinguished Washing ton figure groaned as he de parted. "I paid $100 to get in - I'll give $500 to get out." The evening's program was carried to 60 cities and about 90 banquets or theater audi ences by closed circuit tele vision. The number of dues paying viewers was estimated at 350,000 persons. About 5,000 of these gathered with President and Mrs. Kennedy ill the District of Columbia Armory. Very Long Program The program began at 9:30 p.m., dinner was at 7:30 p.m., and ended at 12:15 a.m. - a rather longish period by any standard of entertainment. The cast was superb - comedy from Kaye and Bob Newhart, ballet by Maria Tallchief, opera by Dorothy Kirstcn and Diehard Tucker, readings by Robert Frost and Leonard Bernstein as master of cere monies. The presentation of the eve ning undoubtedly was much better received in other parts of the country than in the District of Columbia Armory which under optimum condi tions has the acoustical charm of an empty oil drum. Thursday night the sound amplification system worked so poorly that at least a thou lit Center sand of the culture lovers had departed an hour before the show ended. Former President Dwight D. Eisenhower, speaking from Augusta, Ga., was far better heard in the armory than his successor who introduced him for a bow at the start of the show. Mr. Eisenhower spoke at the conclusion, which made it virtually impossible for the President to have left earlier, even if he had wanted to do so. When President Kennedy acknowledged that plans for the cultural center actually started in the Eisenhower ad ministration, he said to him via closed circuit television, "General, I am sorry we are not all there with you." As the evening progressed, there seemed to have been more feeling than ai enity in these words. Both the President and for mer president addressed them selves heartily to the cultural needs of the nation. Mr. Ken nedy particularly pointed out that the arts have no interna tional boundaries and that creative arts reach their high est point of development in a free democratic society. Gold Hill Garden Club Meefs at Loefflers Gold Hill Mrs. Lewis Loef fler. Blackwcll hill road, en tertained the Gold Hill Gar den club for the November meeting. Mrs. S. M.
