Lynda Bird Johnson Likes Scandinavians
(Editor's note: Lynda Bird
Johnson, 19 year old daugh
ter of Vice President and Mrs.
Johnson, accompanied her
parents on their recent 15.000
mile trip to Sweden, Finland,
Norway, Denmark and Ice
land. Lynda Bird records her
impressions in the following
dispatch written for United
Press International. She is
now beginning her sophomore
year at the University of
Texas.)
By LYNDA BIRD JOHNSON
Written For UPI
There couldn't be any salmon
left in Scandinavia: I ate it all.
.Not that I'm gung-ho for sal
mon, but is goes with every
meal from Iceland to Finland.
After so long, it seems to start
swimming upstream.
I confessed this to a group of
Scandinavian college students I
. met. They understood complete
ly. In fact, they feel the same
way about American fried
chicken after they ate it twice
a day on a three - week trip
through the United States.
We agreed that this is, after
all, a minor difference we can
easily overcome. The big thing
was that we felt friend 1 y
enough to tell one another and
still be on good terms.
In the 15,000 miles I traveled
through Sweden, Finland, Den
mark, Norway, and Iceland, I
visited with hundreds of stu
dents, many of whom had been
part of the American field serv
ice program which brou g h t
them to the United States for
their senior year in high school.
Now they were back in their
own countries for college, but
eager to talk about the United
States and the things they had
learned living with American
families from Colorado City,
Texas, to Boston, Mass.
Miss Informality Most
They seem to miss most piz
zas and American informality.
They were eager to return the
hospitality they had received in
my country and show me their
Viking ships on their campuses.
National and internati o n a 1
politics was a favorite subject
just as it is at the University of
Texas where I am a sophomore.
I envied their ability to speak
several languages, as well as
their vast knowledge of Euro
pean history.
These are ancient lands.
Many of their universities are
several hundred years old. Some
of the farms I visited to meet
Four-H students from the United
States have been growing crops
for 10 centuries. Iceland has the
oldest parliament in the world,
established hundreds of years
before America was discovered.
But these lands have modern
ideas, initiative, and I felt
over and over that they look
to the United States, as Thom
as Jefferson once said, as "the
world's best hope."
One student sympathetically
told me "We can choose our
friends but not our neighbors."
Her country borders Russia.
Organized Club
In Iceland there is organized
a pro - American club of stu
dents which is set up for the
public purpose of supporting the
North Atlantic Treaty Organi
zation of which Iceland is a
member. This isn't always easy
because Iceland, with only 180,
000 people, has its own critics
of its NATO membership. In
fact, we walked through Com
munist student mobs gathered
in front of the hotel with scat
tered signs against NATO mem
bership, against the United
States, really against every
thing. But they were quite ob
viously in the minority.
One of the unforgettable sights
of Scandinavia was the outpour
ing of pretty blonde children
everywhere. My father is the
first U.S. vice president or pres
ident in office to visit these
countries in our 175 years of
Water Ouzel's Behavior
Proves Interesting Topic
EVANS VALLEY -Birds,
flowers and bulbs were the main
interest for Evans Valley Gar
den club members when they
met last week in the Enterprise
Grange hall. Mrs. Alfred J.
Boulter, club president presided
for the afternoon meeting.
Mrs. Budd Tucker, bird chair
man for the group, spoke of the
water ouzel, which she explain
ed often is known as the "dip
per," from its habit of dipping
in and out of water throughout
the day in quest of aquatic in
sects and larvae, its favorite
food.
Described as a "chubby little
six-inch gray bird" the water
ouzel also is known for diving
into swift mountain streams and
walking on the bottom in search
of food. Mrs. Tucker explained
that "you won't believe your
eyes when you see this stub
tailed gray bird nonchalantly
walking along under water, not
even the tip of its beak up as a
periscope for air." She also ex
plained further that its eyes
have a waterproof transparent
eyelid and its oxygen supply is
ample enough to allow an ex
tended roaming among pebbles
under water.
"Look Alikcs"
The males and females of this
bird specie are said to be "look
alikcs."
Their song is ' described as
having the tireless energy of a
mockingbird and the sweetness
of a wren, may be heard winter
or summer. Their nests are
frothy tumbles of moss clinging
to rocky banks or midstream
ledges, likely near to waterfalls
where the spray will keep the
moss fresh.
Three or more young birds
are hatched in a brood and by
later summer they may be seen
in a stream dipping and diving
for their own food.
The birds, the speaker ex
plained, may be found anywhere
in the western mountain coun-
national history. Their parents,
who had known war, had
brought their children to see
him.
The people poured onto the
street to welcome us not us,
so much as our flag. They
shouted "Amerika" "Kenne
deee" or "Johnson" and once
or twice I heard a "Lynda."
It is a great honor to help
represent your country abroad.
I like the Scandinavians so
much better for having met
their sutdents. I hope some of
them feel the same way about
the United States because of me.
In fact, the more I think about
it. the more I wouldn't mind
having a serving of salmon.
Red Snapper, Cheese
Is Tasty Combination
Fresh red snapper commonly
is available in the Rogue Valley
area. Usually economical in
price, it has been particularly
so this fall.
A new way to serve this
delicious, nutritious and satis
fying seafood, is Red Snapper
Parmesan, developed by home
economists in the test kitchen
of the U. S. Bureau of Com
mercial Fisheries.

lets or other fish fillets, fresh

try from Alaska to the Andes,
wherever the tumbling streams
are clear and cold and the rocky
banks are green with moss. The
"dipper" can be found any
month of the year, for these
birds stay near their nesting
places the year round and are
reluctant to leave good feeding
grounds, the chairman of birds
explained.
Elderberry Fritters
Mrs. Ward McCullcy, w i 1 d
flower chairman, discussed the
elderberry shrub or tree, show
ing samples in different stages
of growth. The speaker explain
ed that many have heard of
elderberry wine and jelly but
few knew that the white blos
soms of the plant could be eaten
by dipping the blossom, after
washing and picking excessive
bits of stems away, in a batter
used for making fritters. They
are fired a golden brown, and
served while hot with a sprinkle
of lemon juice and sugar. Young
tender shoots of the plant can
be boiled and served as aspara
gus is served, she further noted.
Mrs. Ralph L. Weidc, horti
culture chairman, discussed the
planting of bulbs, how to protect
them from moles and gophers,
and Mrs. Fritz Carlson told
how, when and where to plant
bulbs. Mrs. Carlson is chairman
of the committee for "what to

Mrs. Robert K. Wales report

Mrs. M c C u 1 1 e y and Mrs.
