Crisis q Minute as Day Neors

Tension was mounting at Re-
publican inaugural headquarters
this week end as the great day
approaches.
In fact, it wouldn't be an ex-
aggeration to say that the situ-
alton approaches chaos at times.
The inaugural ball committee
has been holding itself incom-
municado for the past several
days, as it struggles desperately
to get at least the tickets of
District of Columbia and nearby
residents into the mail.
The committee was bracing it
self for a new onslaught this
week end as arriving out-of-
towners descend in person to
pick up the tickets which weren't
ready in time to be mailed. The
committee still feels confident
that all local residents entitled
to tickets will get them in the
mail.
Meanwhile, a similar crisis was
looming in the distribution of
tickets for the inaugural festival,
to be held Monday evening. It
had become apparent by Thurs
day afternoon that many of those
tickets couldn't reach out-of-
town purchasers before they
boarded a plane or train for
Washington. So that means an
other horde of people storming
inaugural headquarters this week
end.
Crisis q Minute
An even more serious crisis
was narrowly averted few weeks
ago, when a crew of volunteers
was rushed in to write notes to
q large number of people across
the country, politely urging them
to stay home Inauguration day.
Those who received the notes
had previously received fancy
engraved 8 by 10 inch engraved
Invitations, asking them ito at
tend and participate in the in
augural ceremonies" There was
even an R.S.V.P. in the corner.
Not unnaturally. the recipients
took the invitations seriously,
and began bombaroing inaugural
headquarters with queries -
where were their tickets to the
ball, the parade, the swearing
in, etc? What other events should
they plan to attend? How did
they go about making hotel res
ervations?
It was the job of the volun-
teerS to tactfully explain that
the handsome invitations were
intended only Gas one committee
member put it) "as a memento
for posterlty."
Asked why, in that case, the |
invitations bore an R.S.V.P., he !
explained that it was thought |

A brief orientation period will

Nurses are especially needed to
teach the skills of home nursing

These classes are usually IA
