Jolly Saint Nick Missing
From Top US. Toy Store
By GAY PAII.EY
I PI Wnwen'a Editor
NEW YORK (l'Pl)-The na
tion's best -known toy store has
no Santa Claus!
This came as quite a shock to
ne; I expected Santa with his
"ho ho ho" and "what do you
want (or Christmas sonny?" to
be as traditional with F.A.O.
Schwarz as its catering to the
carriage trade.
"We don't have a Santa he
cause we don't believe anyone
can imitale the old gentleman,"
faid Charles Veysey, executive
vice president of the Dti-year-old
company. "Santas alter all are to
attract children, and we don't
need to do that."
"One year," he added, "some
one dreamed up the idea we
fhould have some telephone San
tas: let the children call and at
least talk. The result was pande
monium. Our switchboard was
jammed. Businessmen com
plained they couldn't get a call
home to their wives to tell 'em
what train they'd he on. We gave
this up in a hurry."
But even without Saint Nick the
frtore. is a wonderland for chil
dren, and nostalgic adults at this
time of the year. Especially a
wonderland if pop is well-heeled.
Casing two floors of what Vey
sey said was 20.000 square feet of
space containing 9,000 typps of
toys, I found these sltmers for
the Christmas stocking:
A cedar log cabin, measuring
fix by nine feet, with porch and
lookout tower, for $563. Veysey
said eight already had been sold
by mail order, including one to
a customer in Switzerland.
A child-size Thunderbird, battery-powered
for $507; an off
white monkey, who sits and
smokes ihonesl), for $295; a six
foot, stuffed okapi, for $295: a
life-like cow, who chews her cud,
for $175;
A grocery store with groceries
for $95; a toy refrigerator, bigger
than some of those in modern
spartment kitchens, for $50; a
fink, for $72.50: and a two-slory
colonial' doll house, for $218.
Women's Club
Names Chiefs
WEED Installation of officers
end acceptance of bylaws spt the
newly formed Weed Republican
Women's Club Federated activities
In official motion at the organiza
tional meeting held November 19.
Mrs. Lucile Hosmer, San Mateo,
and Mrs. Helen Hollenbeck, Quin
cy, president and vice president,
respectively, of the California Fed
eration of Republican Women
Northern Division, were the guest
speakers for the meeting held at
the Weed Courthouse.
Mrs. Hosmer installed the new
ly elected officers for a two year
term including, Mrs. Isabel Eiler,
Gazelle, president; M r s. Louise
Vidricksen, vice president; Mrs.
Elwin Adams, secretary; Mrs.
Merilee Franklin, treasurer. Ap
pointed officers include, Mrs. Etta
Kyle, membership, who is handling
registration of charter members
this week: Mrs. Marna Young, par
liamentarian: Mrs. Lucile I. Gay
nnr. public relations; Mrs. Virginia
Mellon, chaplain.
The new slale of elective officers
was reported by the nominating
committee that included. Mrs. Vid
ricksen, chairman: Mrs. Hazel
HicHey, Mrs. M. Tobin and Mrs.
Dorothy 'Mitchell. The bylaws com
mittee consisted of Mrs. Camille
Zwanziger, Mrs. Leland Stone and
Mrs. Kyle.
The Weed RWC Federated will
meet monthly and welcomes Re
publican women to join.
"That Includes the curtains," said
a saleswoman.
Veysey assured me there are
are plenty of toys less astronom
ical in price some for as low
as $1. But it's the larger sales
i hat get mentioned most frequent
ly. There was the year a custom
er bought an entire electric train
display for $3,000; the time a Ca
nadian bought a whole window
display which included reindeer,
huskie, seal, Eskimo and simulat
ed ice.
Veysey said toy preferences run
in cycles, and this year looks like
a good one for individual items
such as a ballistic missile, a sat
ellite launcher,, and a fish that
swallows another. Sometimes
even with all its years of experi
ence. Schwarz misjudges the
length of a cycle.
"We're still 'trying to get rid of
Davy Crockett caps," the store's
chief buyer said.
Montgomery Circuit Jury Acquits Negro Of Charge
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (API- A
Circuit Court jury deliberated just
10 minutes Friday night before
acquitting Edward Davis, 27, Ne
gro, of charges that he attacked I
the Rev. Ralph D. Abernathy
with a hatchet.
Davis' 21-year-old wife had tes
tified earlier that she had sub
mitted to unnatural sexual rela
tions with Abernathy three times
before her marriage.
Davis testified in his own de
fense and denied that he made
any real effort to harm the Ne
gro minister.
He said he was armed with a
pistol and a hatchet when he went
to Abernathy's office, but said he
carried the weapons "only to
scare him up real good."
Davis, former halfback at Ala
bama Slale College, had been ac
cused of attacking the integration
leader Aug. 29. He said he went
to Abernathy's office to warn him

She testilied that Abernathy

even after she married and thai
he had telephoned her on the day
her husband went to see him.

tions with Abernathy when she
