'WHALE' Perhaps this is how the Biblical whale looked to Jonah just before he
was swallowed up, according to Old Man Winter discussing his modern interpreta
tion of the Old Testament story. That is quite a fin, already.

GEOMETRIC GLANCE An unusual study in perspective and geometric design re
sulted when Old Man Winter, master artist, sprinkled snow on a slightly bent hog
wire fence somewhere in the Klamath Basin.
CRAZY GLASS BLOWER What ever his original intentions, Old Man Winter's
glass blowing ability seems to have conjured up something too cold to handle. The
biiare main artery, with the rounded and suspended flasks, was in reality formed by
ice molted off a tree branch and twigs.
WINTER SPEAKS IN ICE Just lately Old Man Winter has been working feverishly

Although she also said that she

press has been very interested in
my official projects and has help
ed such things as the restoration
immensely."
By her piojctt to put the exec
utive mansion on tiie level ol
splendor it deserves, she ha
aroused a new national pride in
the White House. A familiar sight
in the capital is the long line of
men, women and children wail
ing to get their trip through the
public rooms of the mansion.
The public response to Ihe res

been wondcrlul. She added that
"I have worked harder on this

With the exception of some

rooms are finished that the Fine

Mrs. Kennedy said.
"Now we can relax and look
for great paintings and obietts of
historical significant e, and work
on filling the library with appro

Mrs. Kennedy had a succintl
answer to one question: "How
ould you describe your first two

She replied: "Busy."
