MEDFORD President's Sister Discusses Family (Editor's Note: This is the first of five profile-interviews of "the other Kennedy wo men'' President Kennedy's sisters and sisters-in-law. Sub ject of today s dispatch is i Eunice Shriver, eldest of the President's three married sis ters.) By HELEN THOMAS United Pntt International Washington - (UPD - Presi dent Kennedy's sister, Eunice, says it would be "wonderful" if her brother, Robert, the at torney general, moved into the White House some day. But she feels that 1968 is pre mature to think about having a second chief executive in her family. She also expects the Presi dent to win a second term by a much bigger margin than his first time around. As for her husband, R. Sargent Shriver, director of the Peace Corps, "he'd make a wonder ful governor" of Illinois but she wouldn't want to see him run in 1964. Tall, blue-eyed Mrs. Shriver talked frankly and freely about members of the Ken nedy clan as political candi dates in an exclusive inter view with United Press Inter national. She also discussed a subject on which she is be coming a respected authority- mental retardation. "I think it would be won derful if Bobby went into the White House,' 'she said. "He's so dedicated ... he has no other Interest than govern ment. But '68 is awfully pre mature to think about. I frankly have never heard him discuss it in my life." Loekt Like President Mrs. Shriver looks remark ably like the President. She has the same lanklness, the same mannerisms, talks with the same pointing gesture of the finger. There is the same Boston twang and quickness of speech . . . and the same intensity when she gets wound up in her cause. She is extremely candid and confident. She pitched in with typical Kennedy "vig- uh" to help her brother win the presidency. And she makes no bones about the fact that she thinks he's the right man for the job. I really enjoy my brother being president . . . let's face it, she said. "I think he s the most able, creative young man in government that I've ever met and he's the most understanding of what people want for their own happines. He's terrifically sympathetic. "1 think he's doing terribly well. He's bright and able. He's Rot a marvelous sense of hu mor." She said the President is "more serious now . . . more absorbed" than in the old days. Doet Social Work The mother of three child ren, Mrs. Shriver has been no slouch herself at public serv ice. At the age of 41, she can look back on many years of social work with juvenile de linquents, deserted children, and women in prison. Now her burning preoccupation is retarded children. She is executive vice presi dent of the Kennedy Founda tion, which devotes its money to aiding the mentally re tarded. She is far from an armchair executive. The day she was in terviewed, at the foundation school in Washington, she took time out to teach her gym class, which she does "A good place to eat." RESTAURANT We are friend of family ... do dine OREGON i Washington Mrs. Eunice Shrivir, eldest of the Presi ident't three married sisters nd wife of the director of the Peace Corps, hit the tame mannerisms and talkt with the tame pointing getture of the finger of JFK. Mother af three children. Mrt. Shriver pitched in with typical Ken nedy "vig-uh" to help her brother become pretident. (UPD every Tuesday. The young girls in her group seemed to adore her as she put them through fast calisthenics. They showed remarkable coordination and their afflic tions were not apparent to a casual observer. Sister Joseph La Namur, head of the school, which is conducted by Catholic nuns, shakes her head in admira tion at Mrs. Shriver. "She's got a lot of push," she said. "She's full of pep. All you need is one person like that. The children love Mrs. Shriver." Talkt of Sitter Mrs. Shriver was the first to break through the barrier of secrecy surrounding her 44-year-old sister Rosemary. In a magazine article last year, she revealed that Rosemary was Jewett School PTA Committee Heads Named Central Point - Standing committees were named at a meeting of the Jewett Parent Teacher association executive committee April 17.

Now Mrs. Shriver speaks freely. seems to want to, as if to give comfort to others. She also feels that if Rosemary had been born later she would have had a better chance to advance and to know life be cause of so many new discov eries in the field. Most Active Mrs. Shriver is the most ac tive doer on the sister side of the Kennedy family. She makes speeches around the country and she is always noDDinz in and out of the of - fice wing of the White House, mdiv in connection with her riviuirv role on the mental retardation panel. Formerly residents of Chi cago, the Shrivers now live in an elegant home in Rockville, Md., a suburb of Washington. They have a cook, a cleaning woman and a governess. Rumors that Shriver will run for the Illinois governor ship keep popping up. and his wife is not unaware of them. But she says "not in '64. I don't think he wants to. He likes the Peace Corps." Perhaps after that," she addad. ' he'd make a wonder ful governor."
