CHICAGO, July 12.-Mrs. Rich

vice presidential nominee, was
just biting into a between-the
sessions sandwich when she heard
a news flash that her Senator hus-
band had been picked as Gen
EiSenhower's running mate.
Her jaw dropped in amazement
and the sandwich fell to the palte

AS soon as she heard the first
bulletin, she gathered her things
and rushed from the restaurant
to get more news.
Patricia Nixon-her husband
calls her Pat-had only met the
Eisenhowers once before the two
families gathered at the final con-
vention session last night. That
was when she and Senator Nixon
stood and waited to shake hands
with the general and his wife at
the tremendous Eisenhower recep-
ton Sunday night.
+ At that time, the Nixons were
just another couple in the long
line.
Mrs. Nixon is a slim. attractive
strawberry blond of 80. She has
a lot of life, sweetness and a sense
Of humor.
Home on Tilden Street.
Until a few weeks ago, she did

Before the Nixons attended q
midnight reception given by the
delighted California delegation
last night, she telephoned Wash

were.
The two little girls had just
completed an exciting session be-

gone to bed. They watched fas-

seat beside Senator Knowland in
the California delegations section.
Nomination Of Vice President
began with a roll call of the
States. Alabama. Arizona and
Arkansas passed and California
announced it had a candidate.
AL the other states passed. When
the chair recognized Gov. Lodge
of Connecticut, he presented Mrs.
Claire Booth Luce. member of
the delegation, to make a nomina-
tion. Mrs. Luce said she wished
to nominate Senator Margaret
Chase Smith Of Maine, but that
Senator Smith had requested that
her name be withdrawn-and she
therefore withdrew it.
Nominated by KnowIand.
Senator Knowland nominated
Senator Nixon. describing his work
in the House and the Committee
on Un-American Activities before
his election to the Senate In 1850.
Reference to his work in the Hiss
case drew loud applause.
Senator Knowland praised Mr..
Nixon's campaign for the Senate
and his usefulness as q Senator,
but pointed to him as a man who.
with Gen. Eisenhower. would pre-
sent an outstanding ticket.
The Nixon nomination was Sec
onded by Gov. Driscoll Of New Jer-

and Mrs. Cecil Murray Harden,
Of the House from In

He was escorted to the platform
with Mrs. Nixon while the dele

The audience applauded while
the photographers demanded three
repetitions Of the kiss Mrs. Nixon
planted on her husbands cheek.
The convention wound up its

resolutions before Gen. Eisenhower
arrived and adjourned following

Would a baby keep this couple
together? Mrs. A. can't make up
her mind; and the story she tells
is certainly a bit complicated. Here
it is:
"How does a wife convince her
husband that she really wants a
home and family instead of a
career? Every time try to tell
my husband that I want to have
a baby, he has some excuse about
it not being the right time, or
some other foolish reason. I
know he would make a wonderful
father and I can't help feeling
that he's keeping something from
me-that perhaps he doesn't think
I'm the right person to be the
mother of his children.
"You see, I've always been a
career woman. I've worked ever
since graduation from high school
and I'm considered quite success
full in the store where I'm a buyer.
I know my husband admires me
and envies the way I can get
along with people. He is a labo-
ratory technician and the typical
introvert that usually does that
kind of work. think he needs
an old-fashioned stay-at-home
type of wife who would look up
to him as the head of the family.

Charm and GruciOusness

The hustle and hustle of every
day living makes it increasingly
important that women change into
something pretty, informal but
still elegant, and something that
is a complete change from what
they have been wearing all day.
Because the time spent at home
is so important more and more
well-known designers have ex-
panded their designing to include
this type of clothing, too. Claire
McCardell is one. Ann Fogarty
another. Tina Lesser has been

attire that can be pretty, practical,

long considered the bird to be one
of the most important compo-
nentS of their cuisine. And here
in America, Long Island and New
England have made the East Coast
thoroughly duck conscious - as
witness the popularity of "duck
dinners" at taverns and roadside
restaurants for the tourists.
In France. perhaps, the duck
has attained the height of culi-
nary perfection. Although the

But out in the Dakotas they
have a way of serving duck that
can hold its. own with most Of
the French masterpieces. Here
is how:
Clean a 5 or pound duck, wash
it, inside and out, and rub it with
a cut lemon. Then rub it again
with mixed salt and pepper. In

stick Of celery with leaves on. truss
it up and sew it shut. Put the
bird into a kettle and cover it
with boiling water. Add to this a
bay leaf. parsley and thyme, tied
in a bunch. Bring gradually to
a boil. Boil gently until tender.
Then season to taste with more
salt and pepper and remove the
duck from the kettle.
Put the duck on a baking pan,
and brush it with melted butter.
Brown it in a medium oven.
Strain the broth left in the ket-
tie. and set half of it aside. In
another heavy kettle melt 3 table

child. That would.do it, wouldn't

MY husband and I love each
other and I'm sure in my heart
that the only reason he doesn't
want a child is because he is con-
sidering me and my career. But
we can't go on the way we are.
He gets more depressed and mis-
cradle all the time and says I
need q different husband.
know that isn't true; but does he
need a different wife or can I
become the kind of wife he needs?
Please help me. I love him and
would willingly do anything
can to make our marriage sue
cessful." --- --, -.'--
The concern each Of you shows
for the other is greatly to your
credit, Mrs. A. At this distance
my guess is that you are right in
thinking your husband feels
guilty about destroying" a ca
reer in which you are so success
full, and that he feels all the more
guilty because of his own desire
for children. But a situation like
this, with all it's ramifications,
isn't to be cleared up by a let
ter! I suggest that you consult
a qualified marriage counselor. I
think a month or two of counsel
ing will enable both you and your
husband to understand each other
and go ahead with confidence.
The difference in your ages is
not important. There is one very
important thought in your letter,
however, that I want to stress
that is the idea that a child might
hold the marriage together when
it is in bad shape. Plenty Of chill
dren have wrecked the homes into
which they were born, and have
themselves suffered in the proc
ess, because the couple had a
child in a desperate effort to i'm
prove a marriage which had de-
so far that the advent
of a child destroyed it.
Don't have a child to improve
q marriage. Improve the mar
riage first!
