    Drive Fit $
Its Name
To Letters
By DICK WEST
WASHINGTON (UPD-Tlie dis
tribution of CARE packages,
which started out as a temporary
post-war reliet program, has now
become a sort of American insti
tution, like baseball, hot dogs and
Marlene Dietrich's legs.
Technically, Marlene's legs are
not 100 per cent American since
they were imported from Ger
many. But let's not quibble. Any
American who would quibble over
Marlene's legs probably should be
deported.
. Whenever I think of CARE,
which isn't as often as 1 think
of Marlene's legs, I think of it in
terms of the eternal question of
which came first, the name or the
Initials?
CARE was originally an abbre
viation of "Cooperative for Amer
lean Remittances to Europe.'
Then, when it outgrew that name.
it became an abbreviation of "Co
operative for American Relief
Everywhere."
This would indicate that the
CARE people began with the ini-
tials and then thought up names
to fit them. Which gives them
something in common with Lyn
don B. Johnson.
It was almost 15 years ago that
the first CARE package was sent
to Western Europe to help feed
victims of World War II. Since
then, the organization has dis
patched more than $388 million
worth of food and supplies to
more than 50 countries.
CARE now has more packages
than Heinz has soups. They come
In more than 70 varieties, rang
lng from $1 food parcels to $100
machines used to make building
blocks.
If you're wondering how I hap
pen to know so much about CARE
it's because I attended a recep
tion given for the 28 CARE mis
sion chiefs who are meeting here
this week to discuss plans for fur
ther expansion.
They are a dedicated lot and
like to talk shop. I came awav
with a note pad full of incidental
foreign intelligence which they
brought in from their distant out
posts. For Instance, Roy Rhodes, who
runs the CARE mission in Hong
Kong, told me that the Chinese
Communists have banned the an
cient game of Mah Jong. Anyone
caught with a Mah Jong set is
required to deliver it to the police
station piece by piece, one piece
per day.
That being the case, it seems
to me our Central Intelligence
Agency ought to consider setting
up a Mah Jong underground m the
Far East. Possibly the sets could
be smuggled into Red China in
CARE packages.
Another CARE chief, David E.
Jack of Mexico, gave me a brief
ing on a hot sauce made by the
Indian natives of the Yucatan pe
ninsula. It is called sneepeck,
a Mayan word meaning "dog'
mouth."
, "That's because the first time
you taste it you begin panting,
Jack explained.

Tuesday.
Parents and friends observed
the girls undergo 12 tests of ele

The skating program was the
largest of its kind ever conducted
here. Girls studied for 10 weeks
under Walt Kustron, professional
skater and member of the Roller
Skating Association of America.
The girls learned to skate for

do the Mohawk turn, play three
games, perform one dance and
follow safety rules of skating.
The skating badge is one of a
possible 11 badges in the Girl
