The fiedgling Army Wives
Council win celebrate its first
anniversary on August 20,
but already in a years time
the council lis moving toward
a million dollar project"
according to its president,
Mrs. Hoy d. Davis.
The "million-dollar prof.
ect" is an Army distah
club. as it will be called--a
residential and nonproflt
town club residence for Army
officers widows, transient
Army wives and unmarried
Army daughters. which viii
be located here in Washing
ton.
Mrs. TaylOr's Idea
The council was the brain
child of Mrs. Maxwell d.
Taylor. wife of the Army
Chief of Staff, and Mrs.
Davis, wife Of an Army
colonel.
It's founding was inspired
by the success with which
Army wives clubs of the
Metropolitan Area worked to-
gether on last years National
Symphony Orchestra series
ticket sales drive.
Envisioning that such en-
ergy, If ckanneled into one
organization, could have inn
mense possibilities. Mrs. Tay-
lor called q meeting Of the
presidents and leaders Of
Army wives clubs and groups
from Carlisle Barracks, Pa,
to Norfolk. Va.
Thirty clubs responded and
q panel of officers and club
representatives was elected,
with Mrs. Davis as president
and Mrs. Taylor as honorary
president.
Mrs. Taylor told the as
sembled leaders that q work.
ing council could accomplish
two aims-better serve the
Army wife, and unity the en-
deavors of the separate clubs
into projects which could
promote cultural and civic
participation in the commu-
nifty.
The idea caught on fast.
Soon letters were pouring in
to Mrs. Taylor and Mrs.
Davis suggesting projects for
the council to undertake. The
most frequent suggestion was
for the town club residence.
To Be Studied
But although work has
gone forward all summer to
inspect the possibilities Of
such a plan. Mrs. Taylor and
Mrs. Davis still consider 1t is
at the proposal stage. 1t will
be studied by members Of the
awe at their first meeting of
the season on September 8
at Patton Hall, Fort Myer
officers club. If it is APP
proved, then the council
members will take the next
step - discuss and act on
means of financing the pro-
posed venture.
Whether the club will be
q newly constructed building
or an old one reconverted
will be one Of the points Of
discussion on September 3,
Mrs. Davis said in a recent
interview.
In function and size, the
distaff club will closely re-
Semble the Army and Navy
Club on Farragut square,
long established residence for
active and retired male serv-
ice officers. But some awe
members have indicated their
desire for the proposed town
club to permit accomoda-
tons for men as well, as
women Of the Army, Mrs.
Davis said, adding that "this
Is just one Of the suggestions"
Other suggestions are that

and above all. that 1t serve a
very wide age range.
I'VE are not catering to
any certain age group" Mrs.
Davis stressed. I'VE want to
be fair all around. In other
words, captains and majors
wives will get lust as much
Of a break as generals wives"
Although the distan club
is still at the talking stage,
Mrs. Davis said rough esti-
mates already tag it as "a
million dollar project"
Another Project
But the awe is not waiting
to get its town residence UP
before getting on with its
dreams for another ambi-
tious project-a home with
nursing care for Army off,
GERS wives, widows and
daughters.
Council members have al
ready selected a name for 1t
Potomac Post-a combina-
ton of words that has q
nostalgia ring for those who
have known the Army all
their lives.
People are getting older
all the time and we're facing
that as a problem for the
active Army wife to consider
absolutely" Mrs. Davis said.
But naturalization of the
idea for the nursing home
win depend a great deal on
gifts and contributions and
what interest is shown in Po-
tomac Post" she added.
In the meantime, the awe
is going forward with plans
to participate in the National
Symphony Orchestra's 1858
season ticket sales drive.
Last year. as a means Of
remedying the average Army
family's plight Of not being
able to afford tickets for an
entire seasons concerts, Mrs.
Taylor suggested that the
Army wives clubs purchase
blocs of tickets and sell them
on an individual basis at a
discount to their members.
The National Symphony
Ticket Committee didn't hold
out much hope for the sue
cess of such a plan. When the
final results came in they
were amazed. The Army wives
sold more than $500 single
tickets.
First Anniversary
So, when the Army Wives
Council celebrates its first an
niversary at the September
3 meeting (the September
date was more convenient
for members than the actual
August % anniversary date),
it will have much Of which
to be proud in its short ex-
istence. The original 80 clubs
have grown to so, with an
estimated membership of sew
eral thousand members.
A fair representation Of all
the branches of the Army is
insured by a rotation system
of six panel members so that
in a five-year period, for ex-
ample, every wives club in
the large area which the
council encompasses will have
had a say in awe policy.
And looking even further
beyond the horizon. this
group of enterprising and
imaginative Army wives hope
their council idea viii catch
on in other metropolitan
areas throughout the coun-
try where there are Army in
stallations.
They are convinced in the
motto which they have adopt
ed, borrowed from this coun-
try's basic philosophy-"In
union there is strength"
