Since the bride had ' her doctorate in international law (and later wrote two books on the subject), they spent a lot of time dis cussing law. While Ruth was in Paris, Rick had taken a correspondence course in international law. The idea of an atomic submarine first developed in Rickover's mind about the time of the early A-bomb tests. He submitted details to the Navy, but the re port was shelved. He refused to quit, however, and after three years he wore down opposition to the sub. Finally, in 1962, the keel was laid for the Nautilus. Secretary of the Navy Dan Kimball pinned the Legion of Merit on Rickover, declaring that he had done "the most important piece of development work in the his tory of the Navy." Looking for men to join his program, Rickover dis covered few were qualified. "The products of U. S. schools are illiterate in science and unfit for nuclear sailing," he said and set out to find out why. In 1956 he launched two naval nuclear power schools, often conducting final oral exams himself. Mrs. Rickover helped him by ghostwriting parts of his books, "Edu cation and Freedom" and "Swiss Schools and Ours." After a visit to the Soviet Union in 1959, Rickover warned, "Russia's educational system is better than ours. We'd better build brains fast to survive." "Educational reform," he declared, "is the most important thing in my life." But his prickly prose in vited hostility. "I think Parent-Teacher Associations are an infernal nuisance and ought to be abolished," he said in a typical speech last January. "Women should stay at home and take care of their husbands." The Rickovers live quietly. Mrs. Rickover is seldom seen in public but devotes her time to her Washington home and the care of her husband and their son Rob ert, who was graduated from Yale, class of '60, and went on to Officers Training School. The Navy's Private War A number of years ago, Rear Adm. Charles C. Kirk patric was asked why Mrs. Rickover hadn't christened an atomic ship when wives of lesser officers had. "That is a question I fear no one will ever be able to an swer," Kirkpatric said. In a rare outburst, Mrs. Rickover answered the ques tion bluntly: "The Navy brass is determined to hurt my husband for his independence and free spirit. By passing me is one of the most elegant ways they could devise to hurt him." A proud and hopelessly inner-directed man, Rick over spends hundreds of million of dollars for national security and yet he travels economy-class to save taxpayers' dollars. He wears civilian clothes, his wide ties and suits are reminiscent of the '30s, and some times he fixes his own lunch on a hot plate in his office. He has never taken a penny in book royalties, cash awards, or fees for speeches and magazine arti cles. He gives it all to charities for children. Rickover has received 13 U. S. Navy commendations, the Order of the British Empire, and many private honors. But his best award came from the crew of the Nautilus after her historic voyage under the North Pole. They presented him with a piece of the polar ice pack they had kept in deepfreeze. "Those who regard Rickover as a ruthless, hard bitten man should have seen his reaction," said Wil liam R. Anderson, commander of the Nautilus. "His. ordinarily gaunt, serious face was wreathed in smiles. He examined the ice with almost childlike delight. I had the feeling that that piece of ice meant more to him than all the rank, publicity, and accolades that have been showered upon him." Family Weekly, November 17, 1963
