W (MIC SHE Congressman's Wife Describes Recent Br MARIJANE DUNCAN Washington, D. C. The great, white mansion at 1600 Pennsylvania avenue is well guarded from the curious or the possibly mischievous by a high fence and alert guards. There are conducted tours in the morning, but we have not yet taken one. So our first trip to the White House a week ago found us playing the dual role of guests and sightseers.' The reception for Congress is a traditional affair. Until the Kennedy administration, it was a white-tie-and-tails oc casion, with the attendant for mality of a receiving line. Now, however, black tie is designated, and some of the ladies interpret this relaxing of protocol to mean short dresses also. By far the major ity of the wives at last Thurs day's soiree, however, wore long gowns. We were not greeted at the door - nor anywhere, as- a matter of fact, but simply found our way down the cor ridor and up the stairs to the party. We were a bit early and perhaps later guests re ceived some guidance. There were military men stationed ft n r Members of The Congren muit attend many social functions in the erenings fol lowing strenuous days of congressional du ties. Pictured here during a recent Wash Dills Attend College Event Portland Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Dill, 3705 Roberts road, Medford, were guests of the college for the annual Par ents Week end program May 3-5. Their daughter, Sue Dill, is a sophomore majoring in business education. Events included a report on the new "3-3 Curriculum," the foreign study opportuni ties and the new physical plant expansion; a style show; crowning of May Queen Anne Wichman; a parents-faculty luncheon; a student-parent breakfast; a chapel service, a concert and sports events. . here and there who were hap py to give information, but no acting host or hostess in evidence. However, most guests seemed to feel at home, as perhaps we all should, in the White House. Admire Decor Wandering through the fa mous rooms, we admired the fresh and charming decor cre ated by the First Lady. The Blue Room, I may report, is indeed mostly white, but is saved by blue draperies and other touches of its name col or. With all the milling about, I still do not have a clear picture of the floor plan, but there were two large cham bers, in which buffet tables were laid and orchestras play ed, connected by three small er rooms and a long corridor. The rooms filled up magi cally with members of Con gress, the Cabinet, and the White House staff. We glimps ed Vice President Johnson and Secretary Dillon (Treasury) and talked . with Secretaries Freeman and Udall (whom we had met when he spoke in Portland a couple of years ago).

He evidently was imme diately surrounded, for he got no farther than the first room for quite a while. Some of us who were waiting just out side the door finally gave up and went back to our conver sation or dancing. The Presi dent did not attempt to make the rounds but stayed long enough to shake many hands and chat a little before going back upstairs to the private rooms occupied by the First family. We were lucky just at the last to be able to shake his hand and wish him well. Mrs. Kennedy, of course, did not appear. That she could not was a disappointment to all, particularly to those new wives who have not yet met the fabulous First Lady. How ever, there were none among us who did not understand and sympathize with her rea sons for giving up the many taxing social affairs she must ordinarily attend. And we are looking forward hopefully to next yearv .- , t ; . Pleasant Evening Altogether, it was a vbry pleasant evening. We are ac quainted with enough people to feel at home in a gathering ington function are Congreiiman and Mrs. Robert Duncan of Medford with Vice-President and Mrs. Lyndon Johnson (center.) n Party Held of government people and we found it easy to be come even better acquainted. The -Informality encouraged self - introductions, and we were thus able to meet the Willard Wirtz's (Secretary of Labor) with whom we have mutual friends in Illinois. They are friendly, charming people, as are most of those we have met In "official cir cles." One of the warm divi dends of meeting famous peo ple is that they are so rarely self-important, no matter how actually important in their field. People in high places seem to have a well develop ed sense of how really impor tant everybody is - each' in his own place in this universe of ours. On our way out we Paused in the famous Fireside room to take a deep breath of his tory and remember the great President who made it fa mous. We stopped by an ad jacent chamber to say "hello" to Senator Maurlne Neuber ger, Mrs. Claude Pepper (wife of the congressman from Flor ida) and others, and to admire the china patterns used by While House occupants from George Washington down through General Eisenhower, which were displayed in wall cabinets. Bob's favorite was Harry Truman's - mine was Herbert Hoover's! No doubt a result of my staunch Repub lican upbringing. No shiny limousine swept up to the door to carry us away; as a matter of fact, we walked down the path and out the gate, to our car, saying We Save Sold and Recommended OMEGA WATCHES SINCE 19391 During this period we have been agents for many other makes.
