Dear Jane:
Your mother should be able to

Stadium Being Readied for Giants

City forces are busy touching
up the facilities at the Phoenix
Municipal Stadium where the
New York Giants begin spring
training Monday. The stadium
and grounds have been given a
complete renovation. Concession
stands, bleacher and the grand
stand seats have been repainted.
In addition the usual mainte-
nance work and painting of
other facilities at the stadium
has been finished. The City gain
ed control of the stadium in
October, 1854 through purchase
of the lease from the Phoenix
Municipal Stadium Corporation.
1t assured the New York Giants
a permanent spring training site
in Phoenix. The Giants signed
a five-year contrat with the City
to return to Phoenix for spring
training with an option for an
additional five years. Possession
of the stadium by the City was
necessary to- meet the require
mentS of the contract, also to
assure the continuation of mi
nor league baseball in Phoenix.
The City paid the majority
Stockholder Of the corporation
$87, 500 for the outstanding lease
and all the physical properties
at the stadium at 202 E. Mohave
Street. It had an appraised valu-
ed of $135,000. The final pur-'
chase price was governed by the
difference between the apprais-
ed value and the balance the
corporation owed the City.
Revenue realized by the City
through rental of the stadium
to the Phoenix Baseball Club
and the Giants, along with re-
venue from the concessions, is
used to offset the maintenance
cost of operating the stadium.

EXCLUSIVELY
YOURS
Washington: One Big Party
All THROUGH Day Yesterday
BY BETTY BEALE

If this day belongs to Dwight
D. Eisenhower. yesterday after
noon and evening were def
nitely the property of Richard
Nixon.
He was so much the man of
the hour at the huge Gov
ernors reception, it was mis-
labeled. The Vice Presidents
reception would have been
more descriptive title although
38 of the 48 Governors were
present. This was the one
inaugural party incidentally
where the Democratic guests
of honor outnumbered the Re-
publicans.
The reception was second
only in size to the crowd ex-
pected at the Armory Inaugu-
raj Ball tonight. 1t was fig
ured that 5000 would flock to
the Statler Hotel for the $3.50
to 6 o'clock affair. From the
looks of Sixteenth street at
$50. all 5000 had turned up.
The corridors leading to the
Presidential and Congressional
Bathrooms on the second floor
were damned, the stairways
were damned, the flrst-f1oor
lobby was damned, and the line
extended four abreast up Six
teenth street to L. 1t took
an hour and a half to get
through it.
How many and who took one
look at it and promptly headed
for the next party, there's no
way of knowing.
Inside the two big bathrooms
the walls were lined with boxes,
one for each State, beginning
with Pennsylvania on the left
and continuing thereon in the
order of admittance to the
Union.
In the center of the far wall,
flanked by Illinois on one side
and Alabama on the other,
and marked by a huge seal of
the Vice President of the
United States was the Nixon
box.
In it from $50 until. $50
were the Vice President and
his wife constantly shaking
hands. Standing at one end of
their receiving line was John
Parker Of the Auchincloss
Parker & Redpath brokerage
firm. At the other end were
Floyd Akers and Morris Ca
fritz. whose wives stood or
sat in the back of the box
along with the former presi-
dent of the Cadillac Motor
Car Co., Don E. Ahrens and his
wife: Mr.. and Mrs. L. E.
Breuninger, Mrs. S. Poll Shea
han and her sister Tommajean
Akers.
Pat Iron Woman
Wearing a black taffeta
dress. white gloves and cloche
of pink silk roses, Pat Nixon
showed no fatigue whatsoever
though she had shaken some
4.500 hands the day before. In
fact, she said she wasn't tired
though she had received on
Saturday for a total of 5 hours.
When her brother Tom Ry-
an and his wife joined the box
together with her bachelor
half-brother Matthew Bender
of Los Angeles, they said, I'VE
worry about Pat. If she gets

sick she doesn't tell us; she
Just keeps going all the time"
They said it was amazing how
much she could do.
Every once in while the
Nixons had to stop receiving
to pose for a picture. Oddly
enough it seemed that much
of tAe posing was with Demo-
cratic Governors who came up
to pay their respects to the
couple with a bright future.

President called it when he

in foreign affairs" The Vice
President replied. II should
hire you as a press agent"
The Iranian Ambassador and
Nine. Amini were the only
diplomats who came through
the line.
The Donald Nixons finally
joined the box. They came to
try to speed up the departure
of the Dick Nixons who were
overdue at the Congressional
Medal of Honor reception. AS
they were leaving the Vice
President told Inaugural Com
mittee members, I'VE hope to
see all you people on the In

Two of the longest guber-
material receiving lines were in
front of Gov. "Goody" Knights
box and Gov. Abe Ribicoff's.
Mrs. Knight received with her
husband wearing f1esh-colored
chiffon and a matching turban
of tulle. Mrs. Ribicoff wore
black with a white fur hat.
