Actually, the voters seem to have been doing a fine
job of Improving the educational plant. According to riMMW v_ ^ ,
government figures, in the last 10 years, for every enroll-

enough classrooms to house 120 and have, in addition,
replaced obsolete classrooms for 40. Half of the 36 mil-

At the same time, another warning should be issued
—to school boards, administrators and others In authori-
ty. There is a limit beyond which the voters and taxpay-
ers, either at the national or local level, will not go, nor
can be expected to go, in providing unnecessary frills
and luxuries that send the cost of buildings and class-
rooms soaring. We need first-class educational plants,
not country clubs.

stock purchases. Having hit the
jackpot himself, he had by now
comfortably centered his old
ambivalence about the stock
market itself on the idea ot
women In the market; it was
no fit place for a woman, par-
ticularly his wife, who was
bound to get skewered.
It was largely because of Al’s
attitude about women in the
market that Jane nad not yet
ahot off her rocket by telling
him about the Countess. To tell
the truth, she said to herself,
weighing the finer points, she
was S trifle uneasy about what
he might do, for she well re-
membered his longing “to swab
the decks with Wally" if any-
thing went wrong.
But AJ’s mind this evening
was on her welfare, her sale of
stock, and on the painting of
the carousel, which had been
sent by August Ernst the eve-
ning before. Having admired It

while she looked 18 in face and
figure, tier eyes were those of
a troubled woman.
“Aunt Jan e," she asked,
“could I please nave a glass of
milk ? I’m starving. 1 forgot
to get any food, really.”
Jane poured her a full glass
and patted her on the cheek.
Ai said "Were Just going
over plans for - big party. You
can bring as many men as
you want—Professor Petry, old
Wally, your principal, anybody.
He turned to Jane. “1 think It
would be nice to have Mr. Ernst.
I’d tike to feed that man."
“Who’s Mr. Ernst?” Eleanor
and Rosemarie asked the ques
tlon at the same instant Eleanor
was eying Jane over the edge
of her glass
AI told Jane, “Let me tell
’em.” He walked Into the living
room, took down the carousel,
brought It Into the kitchen and
propped it up on top of the
refrigerator
“Mr. Ernst Just gave this to
Aunt Jane.” he said brusquely.
"Now that’s enough for you
two for now. She’ll keep us
posted."
"But that’s heavenly!” ex-
claimed Rosemarie. "Of course
Mr. Ernst must come."
Jane, furious with herself,
was blushing beet red. Finally
she said, "You’re all terribly
sweet. But not this time, really."
AI turned to Eleanor. “How
many will it be? Let’s not have
any pipsqueak of a party."
She set her glass on the table
and held her hands to her face.
"I don’t know. 1 guess nobody."
“W ell — how about — about
Petry ?”
“No—no. Just nobody." Then
she looked at him defiantly.
"I’d have Wally If I knew
where he was. You don’t like
him but 1 don’t care." Bursting
into tears, she slipped oft the
Rosemarie could only splutter.
"Don’t blame Al. dear." said
Jane. ’It’s aii my tault, Trom
the very beginning ” Jane didn’t
go on to explain, perhaps Be-
cause they already knew what
she meant. At least, she told
herself, surely such behavior on
Eleanors part does bespeak
volumes. Eleanor was in love
with Wally.
Rosemarie didn’t want to ask
the question, but she had to.
"Where is Wally ?"
Jane answered as lightly as
she could. "Out ot town, dear.
Out of town on a business trip.
But he’ll be back."
They all fell silent.
In twenty minutes, outwardly
revived, Eleanor reappeared,
kissed Al affectionately on the
forehead, and told him, “I hate
you. you big lug. Go ahead
with your party. I’ll have Phil
Petry.”
Well, thought Jane, maybe
Eleanor did mean it. Women
in love were sometimes defiant.
They all decided to have the
cioppmo dinner the following
Sunday night, and AI appointed
a committee to help with prepa-
rations — reserving for himself
the skilled part of the cookery.
“We’ll have only fresh fish from
the sea," he said grandly.
Consequently, early Saturday
morning, calling on Brawny
Tony down at Fisherman's
Wharf, Jane bought fresh hali-
but, prawns, clams, oysters, and
tiny California shrimp and then
rushed home to help Rosemarie
chop up the chard. Al made the
tomato sauce, in a ten-quart
marmite, which was enough
aopptno for the U S. fleet, and
into the marmite Al tenderly
dribbled the chard, some red
peppers and a aoupcon ot prac-
tically every herb on the place
— thyme, oregano, basil, rose-
mary. marjoram.
“We’ll taste it about six
o’clock tonight,” he promised
them.
At six o’clock Jane ran over
to help pass judgment Al
smelled, tasted, gave everybody
a taste, solemnly added more
oregano and basil, tasted again.
“Now!" said Rosemarie. “The
wine!”
“Oh, no, no.” Al was appalled.

quart of red wine. Not an In-

Central Presa Asaociatlon Washington Writer
YWTASHINGTON—Secretary ot Defense-designate, Robert B.
\\ McNamara, Is listed as a Republican, but the fact is that
he’s pretty independent politically.
In 1940, when he was a faculty member of the Harvard Bust-
nees School, a poll was taken to find out how the top school's
faculty felt about a third term for Franklin
D. Roosevelt.
The vote was 98 to 2 to back F.D.R. Ons
of the two dissenters was—you guessed it—
McNamara, then a 24-year-old. Obviously, Mc-
Namara, even at that young age, was a
traditionalist, hardly the kind of man to
march in the forefront toward Kennedy's
“new frontier.”
McNamara is no strangsr to Washington.
He was one of a tight group of “bright
young men" who worked in the Pentagon
during World War II. As Defense secretary
he'll be making the same kind of seemingly-’
impoeeible decisions he’s been doing at the
Ford Motor Co., whose presidency he has re-
signed after just a month in the Job.
One kind of decision he’ll be called upon
to make at the Pentagon is the design of weapons which won t
come off the assembly line for five more years. As Ford presi-
dent, he just got through okaying the 1963 model cars of that
company.

• EX-PRESIDENTS—For the first time In many years, ths
United States will have three living former president! on Jan.
20. when John F. Kennedy Is sworn In as chief executive.
They, of course, will be Dwight D. Eteenhower, Harry S. Tni.
man and Herbert Hoover. This is somewhat unusual, but not
unprecedented In the history of the United States.
In the early days of the republic, there was a time when there
were four living ex-presidents. The high point was reached, how-
ever, during Abraham Lincoln’s first administration, when for
a time, there were five.
They included Martin Van Buren, John Tyler, Millard Fill-
more, Franklin Pierce and Jamea Buchanan.
There have been four periods when the U.S. had no living
ex-presidenta. The firat was In the early days of the country,
following the death of George Washington. Other such periods
occurred during the presidencies of Ulysses S. Grant, Thsodors
Roosevelt and Hoover.
• • • •
• IKE’S MISSED THESE—President Eisenhower recently com-
mented that he has not been up the Washington Monument nor
visited Ford's theater, where Lincoln was assassinated. We can
understand hia aversion to that particular theater, but can’t
figure out what he has against the founder of our country,
unless it has something to do with that advice he gave about
avoiding entangling alliances.

• "BOBBY"—Robert F. Kennedy is the choice of his president-
elect brother to be Attorney General, undoubtedly the moet con-
troversial appointment to the new cabinet.
Bobby ia young, aggressive, intelligent, and has a goodly
measure of the family's Irish wit.
He wrote a book recently about his experi-
ences as chief counsel for the Senate Labor-
Racketeering Committee in which he recalled
that so many questionable union headquarters
were found in one New York City building that
he decided to find the owner in the belief it might turn out to
be some racketeer who had found a new way to milk union
treasuries through rentals.
The owner, he ultimately determined, was a member of ths
Kennedy family—his own father.
