Washington. May l.-tNEA)-"He's
welcome to it," said John Coolidge,
referring to Allan Hoover's new job of
being the American Prince Of
Wales" II don't envy him for one
minute"
And those who heard him knew
that this was no sour r-grapes attitude
on the part Of young Coolidge. It al
ways has been evident here that he
did not relish his spotlight position
that he hated being conspicuous and
trailed by secret service men. being
interviewed and photographed. and
that his tastes were for q simpler.
quieter life.
Close friends Of the Hoovers say
that Allan probably will fit more
easily into diplomatic life and actual.
~ will enjoy the white house.
John Coolidge is 4 typical New
Englander-quiet, reserved. taciturn
and bit hard to become acquainted
with. Though he always has been
greatly respected here. he never has
been a mixer" or inclined to make
the most Of hts social opportunities.
He had, in fact, spent little time In
Washington.
Young Hoover Travelled
Allan Hoover. on the other hand. is
thoroughly cosmopolitan. having
Travelled extensively all hts life and
lived In many countries. With an
agreeable sophistication, he seems
older than his q years. And it must
be admitted that he Is = handsome
and . personable young man. with q
profile that probably would pay
handsomely in the movies.
Six feet tall. he is slender but
de-shouldered and built like an
athlete. His features are strong. but
they show sensitivity and careful
modelling. His head is shaped like his
fathers but the resemblance Of his
features to his mothers is marked.
This year he will finish Leland
Stanford University. where he Is an
excellent student and makes high
grades. A football player himself, he
never misses one Of the big games,
and never becomes more excited than
when discussing this sport. which Is
his tavorite.
Hes Fond Of Music
Though inclined to be reserved, he
ts IN excellent dancer aud bridge
player. and very fond Of music, both
classical and Jazz.
When he accompanied hts parents
recently In their South American
tour. he took along his own portable
phonograph and recoeds. his still
camera, his motion picture camera,
and . collection o. detective stories.
H indulged n Ill the games that
wore played on shipboard ana became

He dresses very well and likes "a
