She said:

MRS. Khrushchev appeared
perfectly happy to continue
talking. Finally the time came
for the Premier to depart, and
Fthe daughters moved In again,
This time a policeman came
to help Mrs. Khrushchev find
her car.
He was Sergt. E. Z. Skinner

reached out and took his hand
and said smilingly, "Ah, an
American policeman"
Earlier in the tour Of live

expressed considerable interest

understandingly when an Agri-

Mrs. Khrushchev seemed
smiling and relaxed through

perfectly free TO say what she

'1T"een-Age
Turnabout

By Fiji GORSKA
Star stan Writer

When you change places, you change
your tune.
For seven days the boys and girls at
Mount Vernon High School in Fairfax County
snapped places They called it "Twirp Week."
The girls asked the boys for dates, pro-
vided them with transportation and paid
their way They rendered to the boys all the
little courtesies girls expect-opening doors,
carrying their books and lunch trays, helping
them on with their coats.
But before a girl had the privilege OF
doing all these things, she had to "twirp"
the boy of her choice. That is, she had to pin
a sign on him. The more popular the boy,
the more "twirp" signs he wore and his chest
was like an open date book.
The signs were specific: "Twirped for the
Zoo Sunday by Priscilla" "Twirped for Rose
mary's Party Friday by JAM" "Judy'S Twirp
for Tuesdays Basketball Game"
For the big Twirp Dance at the end of
the week at the school, each girl bought half
a red paper heart for SIPS and hung it
around boys neck. On the heart she wrote
her name. Boys weren't allowed to go stag
to the dance and boy wasn't allowed to say
no if a girl wanted to hang "twirped" sign
on him.
Twirp Week was chance for the girls to
get back at the boys for their Sufferings OF
the past. zone girl know waited until pm.

game that night at g." says Dona Klune,
Mount Vernon senior.
"A lot of the girls were late on purpose,
too, when they went to the boys houses to
pick them up," adds Patti Cliff, another
senior 81 was SO nervous when I thought OF
meeting the boys parents. My date was nerV-
Gus, too, because when he answered the front
door, he said, I thought you'd never get
here His parents told me, Have my son
home by 1890 And did"
After finding out how nerve-racklng 1t
can be waiting for your date to arrive, lot
of boys claim they'll never keep girl wait

out how expensive dating is.

Nenana Set For Weeks Of Annual Spring Vigil For River Ice Breakup
By DAN KETZLER
Special to the Nome Nugget

NENANA-From Barter Island to Kodiak, Ketchikan to Nome, residents will have barely finished their many devious ways of find ing the exact minute that the ice will move at Nenana.
 Tn a few days the town of Ne mana will become a beehive of activity. This will be the begin ming of a feverish two or three weeks of work counting, posting and recording guesses of the old timers and the cheechakos. The result will be thick book which shows the many thousands of entries in this annual classic. Most of these guesses will be wrong, many will be right to the minute.
 After the tickets are compiled into book form, copies are shipped to the various towns and cities; then Nenana will begin a vigil over the tripod. The ice has moved as early as April 20, and as late as May 16.
 A Rube Goldberg device records the exact hour and the minute that the ice moves. The device con- sists of a special clock located in a guard house on the river bank. This is hooked by wire to a tripod which is anchored to the ice in the middle of the river. When the ice moves, the wires stop the clock and another win ner, or winners, is announced to the citizens of the north.
