gathered together an interna-

one expects to find only in

and their friends from numer-
Gus other countries were there
but I was especially intrigued
with two fellow countrymen,
Gen. and Mrs. Briggs.
The general is superinten-

tiful blond Kristin Norstad,
daughter of the general to

equally apply. Mrs. Briggs

PARIS.-It seemed to me
after seven and a half years
absence. that the population of
the United States has adopted
the old mid and southwest
drawl; and that far fewer
people than I recall speak as
their parents educated them
to speak.
This would seem to be a
hy-product of the glorification
of the average American
through TV. This native
American accent. once a dis
tinctly peasant dialect, is now
so general that it's no longer
held against a man. Incident
ally. men are noticeably more
lax about their speech in
America than are women for
the moment. Lots of very nice
people talk like cowboys.
Greeted By Rain
Until Portland the weather
had been consistently balmy
and we were then nearly in
winter. The only severe tenn
perature change had been
upon arriving in Cincinnati
from New Orleans. Now there
was another, for Portland is
a conservative and traditional
city and, being famous for her
rain. 1t rained for my arrival.
Having spent many childhood
years there I'd grown up with
a resentment for Portland
that is typical of youngsters
who grow up there. It's said
to be "a wonderful place to
raise children" and so it is
except that once raised the
children can think of nothing
but getting out of city which
offers gay night life only in
private clubs and peoples
houses.
And leave Portland they do.
but native Portlanders always
go back and long before they
die. People go back to Portland
not to die but to live. Now, at
least, it's understandable. Good
old conservative Portland!
Oregon may have gone DEM
ocratic but the conservative
social core hasn't changed and
there's absolutely no danger of
being called honey" and
"dear" on sight. This is guar
anteed not to happen until you
board the plane to leave and
notice that the hostess calls all
women hon" and all the men
"sir." Portland leaves one with
ones dignity even more than
does Boston after whom she
modelled her manners while
hiding the fact by naming her.

Just how the cadets would

no small amount of anticipa-

new academy as Miss NorStad
but not for the same reason.
Near as it is to Denver there

trips only real disappoint-
ment for in two years the Air

Another special quality
about Denver is the distinc-
lively continental taste the
women there share with ladies
of Dallas, San Francisco, and
Los Angeles.
Missed River Boats
In Memphis the disappoint-
ment of being several decades
too late to see river boats on
the Mississippi was annuled by
the best, most French food
served me in America by a
restaurant that didn't even
pretend to be French. This was
"Justine's" started about eight
years ago by a girl named JUS
tine who did it on dare. Her
family and friends regarded it
as a fling.
She rented the cheapest
quarters she could find in
dreary part of town and de-
veloped a place to which
smart Memphis returns night
after night. At least it was the
only dining place I was al
lowed to see all three nights.
The same people were there
and each time the dinner was
perfect.
