He likes to be fed and left
alone when there's work to
do, and he's great fun to be
with. He loves classical mu-
sic, he likes jazz and he
loves swimming and boating.
Unfortunately" added the
slender, natural ashblond,
hazel-eyed beauty, "he likes
walking" I'VE go every
night" she said with a hu-
morous sigh for this one
strange passion of her huS-
bands.
Where? ANY place-no
matter what time it is. Before
we go to bed we do two
miles" Only if she's ex-
hausted from a late party
does she beg off, said this OBJ

First Lady" button and gave
her full Endorsement of her

what a young woman in the
country should be like"
Educated in Paris
The former Emily Sears,
like her husband, a Boston
blueblood, was born on July
Is, 1905 in Beverly, Mass.
She went to school in Boston
until she was 13 years old,
then was educated in Paris
for the next five years. She
went first to the Convent of
the Assumption, then to the
Catholic Institute, although
she is an Episcopalian.
She made her debut in Bos-
ton and met the handsome
Cabot Lodge (Some people
call him Henry. but not his
family during her debut
year. 1T took him two years
to get around to it" she said
with a smile-meaning the
proposal.
The seven years they spent
at the United Nations, she
said, were the most interest,"
ing I have ever spent in my
life. 1t was the most educa-
tional thing I have ever
done"
The constant stream of en-
tertaining that she and her
husband have done in those
seven years has been really
part of the work." she ex-
planned.
"Dazed" at Demonstration
What were her feelings on
the platform in the conven-
ton hall Thursday night dur
ing the tremendous demon
stration?
II was absolutely dazed,"
she replied. II couldn't believe
it was real. I had to pinch
myself. I will never forget
it as long as I live"
Would she campaign with
her husband?
Il hope to go around with
Cabot"
Would she make any
speeches?
mo, I never do, because
I can't"
Did she know Mrs. Jack
Kennedy?
"Yes. think she's very
charming and very pretty.
I saw her pushing her child
down the street the last time
I was in Washington"
Did she know Lady Bird
Johnson?
"Yes, I do. I like her very
much. I think she's attrac-
tive"
When did she know the
news about her husband?
When knew the news
definitely was yesterday
morning Thursday in the
Waldorf when I was having
breakfast. Cabot came in
and said the Vice President
had called and asked him if
he would be the vice presi-
dental nominee-ab bout 8
o'clock in the morning"
Was she surprised, was
the next question-inasmuch
as she used the word de
f1nitely" and it was known
that her husband had been
approached before.
