The Battalion College Station (Brazos County), Texas PAGE 8 Thursday, November 1, 1056 Reporting Women’s Events In Capital Can Be Confusing By JANE EADS WASHINGTON <A>>—For those of us who’ve been around for a couple of administrations, covering’ afternoon ladies’ functions these days can get a bit confusing. One day you march down a receiving line filled with wives of today’s cabinet officials. The next day you’re shaking hands with the wo men whose husbands held the same posts in the days of the preceding administration. There was Mrs. Fred Vinson, widow of the late Chief Justice, heading one receiving line and introducing us to, Mrs. John R. Steelman, wife of Truman’s White House advisor, Mrs. Dean Acheson, wife of the former secretary of state, and Mrs. Jesse Donaldson, wife of the Truman postmaster general. You also say hello to Nancy Kefauver, wife of the Democratic senator from Tennessee who wants to be the next vice president, and to pert Lindy Boggs, wife of Con gressman Hale Boggs (D.-La.) who heads up the Democratic congres sional campaign committee. This shindig was to honor Mrs. Edison Dick of Chicago, co-chairman of the National Volunteers for Stevenson-Kefauver, The Ameri can Newspaper Women’s Club headquarters, where it was held, was jam-packed. Next day the same clubhouse was equally jammed with women wearing Ike buttons, Ike and Dick insignia, and all kinds of GOP jewelry. In the receiving line were Mrs. Sherman Adams, wife of the presidential assistant; Mrs. Arthur Summerfield, wife of the post master’ general; Mrs. Herbert Brownell, wife of the attorney general; Mrs. James Mitchell, wife of the secretary of labor. The meeting was conducted by Mrs. Howai'd Coffin, Republican National Committeewoman for the District, and chairman of the wo men’s division of the Eisenhower- Nixon Campaign Club of the area. Mrs. Adams brought four little toy elephants she had sewed into party garb—frilly white embroider ed skirts, jeweled head - dresses, corsages of tiny imitation flow ers— to show the ladies. Doris Brownell was wearing one of those handsome gold link bracelets with miniature music box studded with rhinestones spelling “Ike.” Most of the Democratic ladies were wearing chic new fall dresses in black. They were adorned with “Adlai and Estes” jewelry and) the honor guests wore rose car nations. “We’re the poor man’s party; we can’t afford orchids,” one of them quipped.
