Ta By JAMES MARLOW Associated Press News Analyst WASHINGTON (AP) -The 15 men President-elect John F. Ken nedy has already chosen for the top and next-to-top spots in .his administration are distinguished for something else besides youth. The accent is on brains, lawyers and governors. Unlike President Eisenhower, Kennedy did not put the emphasis on men with big business experience. Kennedy put 10 of his 15 choices in No. 1 jobs: his Cabinet. Its average age of 47-rthe youngest in this century compares with an average age of 57 for Eisenhow er's first Cabinet in 1953. While only two of Eisenhower's Cabinet were lawyers, there are six in Kennedy s, . They are J. Edward Day, post master general; Orville L. Free man, . secretary . of agriculture Arthur J. Goldberg, secretary of labor; Kennedy's brother, Robert, attorney general; Abraham A, Ribicoff, secretary of health, edu cation and welfare; and Stewart L. Udall, secretary of the inter ior. Add to them three lawyers among the second-rank Kennedy people: Adlai E. Stevenson, Amer ican ambassador to the united Na tions; Byron White, deputy at torney general; and G. Mennen Williams, assistant secretary of state for African affairs. Nine of the 15 had unusualfy cood scholastic records, either graduating with honors, being re membered as brilliant, winning Rhodes scholarships, or making Phi Beta, Kappa. In the Cabinet they are: Day; Douglas Dillon, secretary of the Treasury; Freeman; Goldberg; Robert S. McNamara, secretary of defense; Ribicoff; and Dean Rusk, secretary of state. The unusual students in the sec ond rank are White and Williams. McNamara, Rusk, Freeman and Williams made Phi Beta Kappa. Rusk and White were Rhodes scholars. Six of the 15 Kennedy choices were governors. Three of them are in the Cabinet, three in the second rank. In the Cabinet: Free man (Minnesota); Ribicoff (Con necticut); and Luther H. Hodges (North Carolina), secretary of commerce. The ex-governors among the Kennedy second rankers: Steven son (Illinois) and Chester Bowles (Connecticut), undersecretary of slate. Williams is governor of Michigan. Only four of the 10 Kennedy Cabinet members were business men, while five of Eisenhower's nine-man Cabinet were. The Cab inet became a 10-man affair in 1953, after Eisenhower took of fice, when the Department, of Health, Education and Welfare was created. These are the Kennedy Cabinet businessmen: Day, a vice presi dent of . the Prudential Insurance Co.; Dillon, a former Wall Street banker; McNamara, president of the Ford Co.; and. Hodges, an im portant figure in the textile in dustry before he retired years ago to devote himself to public serv ice, most recently as governor of North Carolina. In the Kennedy second rank Bowles was a successful business man. He made a fortune in adver tising and, like Hodges, retired to go into public service as OPA ad ministrator during the war, am bassador to India, governor of Connecticut and, most recently, congressman from the same state.
