Senators, Representatives Head For
 Capital and Congress Opening Jan. ,

WASHINGTON, R-Filled with hope and mindful of the elections two years away, senators and rep resentativeS headed for the capital today for the opening of the 84th Congress at noon Wednesday.
 Technically, they should be con- yening at noon today, since the Constitution sets Jan. 3 as the opening date. However, it permits change for the convenience of the legislators, and the outgoing 83rd Congress decided 1t would be more convenient to meet on Jan. 5.
 The following day, Thursday, President Eisenhower will go to the capitol to deliver before joint session in the House chamber his annual message on the state of the Union.
 The President, who returned to Washington last night from Au- gusta, Ca, where he had spent the holidays, arranged to confer this afternoon with members of his cabinet and Republican con- gressional leaders.
 The first order of business when Congress meets will be formal transfer of control of the Senate and the House from Republican to Democratic control, a transfer or dered by the voters in November
 It will be the fifth time this century and the 21st time in the nations history that Capitol Hill was controlled by one political party and the White House by another.
 The last President to experience that frequently unhappy situation was Harry s. Truman, who bat tied the Republican 8Oth Congress during 1947-48.
 Eisenhower is not expected to fare as badly as did his predeces- sor. His legislative program in the main is expected to be acceptable to a majority of the legislators. A coalition drawn from Democratic and Republican ranks seems like ly to approve the main portions of what Eisenhower calls "progres- sive moderate" program.

very important fashion rule to
remember when sailing around
the Hains Point seawall is to
look neat In front OF the Sun
day spectators. Make sure your
sailing togs are lightweight
and closely woven, warm
when nee d d-windbre eaker
jackets and short coats are
fine here--and also to watch
what long trousers you wear
because cuffs can get wet and
soggy If you don't watch out.

At last I know what ails
Elise-it's that bed. and the
wall-to-wall carpeting. and
the slip covers. Nothing else
to my relief, she isn't going
mad or even having a nervous
breakdown.
Psychiatrist Milton r. Sapir-
stein, writing in Harper's Maga-
zine. has given me the key to
the mystery of Elise's odd be-
havior. He maintains that
there is no time at which "a
woman is more apt to go to
pieces than when she is en-
gagged In decorating her home"
This ordinary and APP
pafentiy trivial experience
seems to. present women with
q challenge comparable, in
some respects, with the chal-
lenge war makes to men," he
says. ut tests their femi-
ninity as mans masculinity is
tested in battle" Then he
adds for fear Of not being
taken seriously, II am not jok-
ing. Decorating a home puts a
woman under tremendous
psychic pressure and, in doing
so brings to the surface her
underlying weaknesses"
It was weeks ago that Elise
started on the bed. She talked
to all her friends and some
times, 1t seemed, even to her
self. The essence of it was
that the new wall-to-wall
carpeting had made the
draperies and matching slip
covers so shabby she'd had to
get new. which in turn made
new wallpaper absolutely es-
sential and what on earth was
the use of new wallpaper if
you didn't have the woodwork
freshened up? And when you
go that far. your furniture is
positively so dingy that you've
got to send out everything to
be refinished.
without pause for breath,
Elise raced through this re-
cital In q single sentence at
least q hundred words long.
] noticed uneasily. too, that
she had developed a nervous
habit Of stretching her neck
much like q man whose collar
is too tight.
"And now" she continued.
