Wife of Oklahoma Governor
Wants to Succeed Him in Job

ences at the Southern Governors
Conference here-just in case.
Mrs. Johnston Murray, red
haired wife of Oklahoma's pres.l
ent Governor, has been listening,
in on the problems 13 Dixie.
Governors have, been discussing
here.
One reason: She is consider.
ing running to succeed her hus-l
band.
For Willie Murray, as she is,
known to her friends, it's not,
exactly a new experience. She
has been to Governors confer
ences before.
Consulted on All Issues.
She also has set in while her
husband has made decisions
which affect lot of people in,
Oklahoma. Gov. Murray says he
consults his wife before he de-.
cldes any issues, adding that she
usually has the human interest
slant he says he sometimes lacks.
Willie, IS, and chic, is some
thing new in American politics.
If she decides to run-and the
Governors own political future
seems to be the decisive issue in
that caSe-She will give 1t the
kind of whirl no woman has
created in recent American pol,
iticS.
There have been women Cow
ernors before, but none with the
same kind of background.
Her father-in-law, former
Gov. alfalfa" Bill Murray Of
Oklahoma, is one of her advisers.
The present Governor is Alfalfa
Bills son.
The elder Murray, who wrote
a strong record in Congress
against woman's suffrage, is all
for his daughter-in- laws pros
pective race for the governorship
next year.
His only reservation is that, if
Johnston Murray decides to op-
pose Senator Kerr for the Demo-:
cratic senatorial nomination
next year, Willie must be out.

Governor in that case. T.;
Willie makes no bones about
her desire to- be the next Cover.
nor of Oklahoma. I.
Supported Stevenson (;
There seems little doubt that
Gov. Murray would be happy to
be Federal judge, or accept a.
diplomatic appointment. Unfor-
tunately for the Murray scheme
of things, President Eisenhower
won last years election and Gov.
Murray supported Adlai E. Ste
venson, the Democratic nomi-
nee.
While Gov. Murray says that
women generally like his wife
and probably would vote for her,
Willie isn't so sure. But she is
satisfied that if the old-line poll
ticians don't care for her as a
candidate, she will get the solid
vote of the ld-headed row.
The conference was winding up
today and Gov. Murray was in
line for the Craftsmanship, sue
ceeding Gov. Talmadge of Geor-
gia.

A Wheaton Community Center,
complete with gymnasium, rooms
for reading, checkers, pool, and
other activities and probably a
swimming pool was the topic of a
meeting held under leadership of
Edmund B. Cronin at the whistle
Stop last Thursday night.
Primary purpose of this partic-
ular meeting at which representa-
tives of the Wheaton, Glenmont
and Vicinity, Viers Mill, Connecti-
Avenue Estates( and Glenmont
Hills Citizens Association were
present, was to discuss the feast
bility and advisability of purchase
of the Merland Estate which goes
up for auction on November II for
such a project. The group felt that
since this land is located two and
a half miles out Georgia Avenue
from the Wheaton business center,
it was too far out for easy access
Utility.
The group feels that there is a
definite need for Center of some
sort in the area where children
might go after school, on holidays,
and during summer vacations,
where there are varied supervised
activities in which boys and girls
may participate all day long. How
ever, the feeling was also expressed
that the Center should be centrally
located within easy access SO that
children could walk, bike, bus, or
be dropped off by parents without
trouble.
With the Merlands property ruled
out, the group will continue it's
efforts to work out some way OF
forming such a center, which will
be organized on a non-profit basis.
Those attending the meeting
were Cletus Davis, ]. Alvin Watts,
Henry Andrews, ]. D. Peevey, H.
Leonard Wohlfarth, Abby Simms,
Mildred Hartman, and Anna Marcus.
Biggest baby news in the area
is the birth of twin boys to Mr..
and Mrs. Theodore Butcher. Mr..
Butcher is principal at Glenmont
School.
The babies, born at Suburban
Hospital, weighed A pounds 7
ounces, and 6 pounds. The smaller
was given the larger name, John
Marshall, and the larger the smaller

New
Interest
BY Moricn RohI

The pale-colored costume un-
der your fur or dark winter coat
is fashion many OF you like
to emerge in at this time of the
year. 1t becomes the happy
bridge from winter into spring
when you must wear q warm
topcoat but still want to enjoy
a spring outfit as well. More
pale colors in springs fashion
picture widen your choice this
year! s
Emphasis on the light look
expresses itself In neutral nude
and pale off-white shades Of
beige. You'll probably fall for
pink in its new deeper and more
interesting tones. Light blue and
yellow-the latter is expected to
become more popular as the
season advances into summer
may tempt you. also.
Pale-colored suits that you can
wear later without a topcoat are
a favorite expression for this
light color vogue. The slim, mar
row suit, however, has a rival
this spring in the sheath dress
which can be had in wonderfully
simple versions.
The sheath so often beauti-
fully basic in sheer woolens and
interesting knits has its interest
confined to the top. Necklines,
collars and clever Jokes or tuck
ing bring infinite variety to these
little dresses. The feeling is al
ways feminine and soft; there's
little Of the tailored look about
them. Soft bows under the chin
and little sleeves ending some
where between shoulder and ell
bow carry out this feminine ap-
peal. Skirts follow the narrow.
pencil-slim lines Of your suit
and they, too, may occasionally
have a slit at the back or little
half pleat to permit walking ease.
For that midseason tonic, a
l1ght-colored costume under your
dark coat seems to have come
TO stay. One Of the reasons for
this could be that such a cos
tune is wearable for months to
comet is not just a whim or
one OF those little wardrobe items
you wear for just a few short
weeks.
