One style was of black and white tweed, with a narrow leather belt placed loosely above the waistline. The buttoned jack et came to mid-hip and had his Normandy Fisherman's sleeve, loose and cuffed at the wrist, and a small collar.

Almost all of the suits had organdy scarves and nearly every dress had a matching scarf. Sleeveless suit blouses had white organdy turtlenecks that showed over the tops of the jackets. One navy blue sweater suit with a plain V neckline displayed a white organdy blouse underneath that had a narrow bow at its round, collarless neckline.

Then pointing directly at Mrs. Ken nedy, Mostel ad libbed with grin: "And you to the White House." The unexpected rib galvan ized the audience into roars of delighted laughter and pro longed applause. Mostel said afterward his White House reference was strictly a spur of the moment impulse. "She's a marvelous audi ence she applauds, she laughs, she's human," the ac tor enthused about the first lady. Mrs. Kennedy's arrival at the Alvin Theater where the play, "A Funny Thing Hap pened on the Way to the For um" is running, evoked the cheers and applause of other playgoers. Outside only a handful of people waited in the freezing night air for a look at the President's wife who was clad in a glistening black dress and a dark, full-length fur coat.
