man Robert v. Fleming ex-
pressed his personal appreciation
to the guarantors for their
splendid support"
Mr.. Fleming said 1T is just
another evidence of the ire
mendous popularity of President
Eisenhower and Vice President
Nixon"
Mr.. Reilly stressed that the
guaranty fund is not income "but
a temporary loan to the In
augural Committee to enable it
to pay its expenses before rev.
enue is received from the in
augural functions"
He expressed the hope that the
various activities will be sue
cessful so the amounts advanced
will be refunded in full. He
pointed out that erection of the
reviewing stands at the Capitol
does not come out of the guar
anty fund, but from a special
appropriation by Congress.
Aiding Mr.. Reilly on the
finance committee are Vice
Chairmen James c. Black and
Robert w. Fleming, son of Chair
man Fleming, and 80 business
and professional leaders of the
community.

The
Rambler
Sniper Has Bad
Eye for Eagles
By JACK JONAS

We rise in defense of the
American eagle-particularly
as represented on the new
Senate Office Building.
At present, there are just
four of them up in the form
of circular plaques at the
southwest corner of the new
ST lcture, still far from COM
pletion at Constitution avenue
and First street NE.
They are already under
snide shipping from a reader
who hides behind a pen-name.
He. or she, writes:
"The sculptured eagles have
knees resembling hams (the
eagle has no knees in nature),
wings that are a cross between
those Of traditional angels and
harpies, the feet and claws of
the extinct roc, and each bald
head is wearing a sort of beret
in the style of a Paris apache.
Incidentally the wings are
lopsided, too. The whole re-
sembles those monstrosities
turned out under the first ad-
ministration of Roosevelt,
under the MIRA, but if any

THAT LAST sentence did it.
If there were any sculpture
in Washington more memoir
able than the Memorial Bridge
horses. we had to see it.
We fastened to the Hill to
take a look. On a crisp, sun
shiny morning, the eagles
seemed anything but mon
strosities. They appear, in
fact, graceful adornments to
a simple architecture - much
more decorous than the semi
gargoyles at the corners of the
present Senate Office Building.
The wings seem to be eagle
wings-a bit cramped, per-
haps, by the circular enclosure
in which the birds find them
selves. AS for the claws, they
have that firm, resolute grasp
to be expected of the Amer
lean eagle.
1t might have been the way
the sun was shining, but it
must be admitted the anony-
nous writer appeared right in
one detail. They do seem to be
wearing berets at a rakish
angle. But why shouldn't a
beret be permitted a bald
eagle?
