speed or fury. But that is be-
side the point, which is that
elections always swirl around
Washington as a city but never
stir a leaf inside the bounds Of
the District Of Columbia.
The District is Federal terri
tory and local residents have no
vote. Many have legal residence
in home States and can vote
there. But there is no vote for
local candidates on local issues
in the Nations capital. This.
naturally, adds to the feeling Of
local calm.
Restful Atmosphere.
Another factor that adds to
the impression is that legislators,
who at other times do most Of
their speechmaking and shout
ing here, at general-election
time come here mostly to rest.
They then set off for surround
ing vote-infested territory again.
Even when the President or a
cabinet member or any one else
makes a political speech in
Washington, it is plain that he's
talking not to Washington but
from Washington. This, too.
contributes to the Washington
sensation of being in the eye Of
a hurricane.
So does the fact that the hun
dreds of political writers who live
and work here during most OF
the year spend more and more
time away from Washington as
the general election approaches.
They can't get even a murmur
of a grasS-root sounding inside
the District of Columbia.
Then there are the lists Of
predictions as to which party
will carry which State. Or which
city. Washington is never men
toned, of course.
Nothing From District.
And there are the many news
and radio and television reports
of primary or other elections in
the various States. Who won.
and by how much. These stories
come in from the Territories Of
Hawaii and Alaska, even-but
nothing from or about Wash
ington, D c.
And all the time and all
around, the political windsor
the politicians - howl. The
force and fury are frightening.
You know it's nothing but
wind. But wind moving that
fast is impreSsive-and danger
Gus.
It gives you an eerie tingle
when nary q breeze is stirring
where you are and you hear on
the radio that it's blowing madly
all around.
That's Washington at elec-
ton time.

OLIVIA SCARBOROUGH WICK
SHOWS HORSE IN PHOENIX

Olivia Scarborough Wick, orig
inally from Frisco at Cape Hat
teras but now living in Califor-
mia, is just as fond of horses today
as she was whe she was growing
up on Hatteras Island.
Olivia, member of the Ell
Sobrante, California, Riders As
ISOLATION, rode her palamino
mare, Gypsy, in a 3-day parade
and horse show at Phoenix, Ari-
IONA, on March Is, 10 and 20.
Phoenix was 36-hr. one-way
trip by train for the horses from
the starting point near San Fran
cisco and the loading and unload
ing of horses and equipment at
the station was each owners
responsibility.
Olivia has always been fond of
horses. Even when she was only
5 years old she would ride her
beach pony, in the absense of the
men in her family, and help
round up their cattle for the dip
ping vat at Frisco. One of her
most treasured memories is rid
ing over the beach hills and along
the surf at Good OLE Cape Hat
teras Bank.
