question.
The question came from the
Russians, a group composed Of
two actresses, two directors. one
critic, and a couple Of out-size
Slavic types who left the i'm
preston they were writer's.
Left the impression" we say,
not because we suspect them Of
not being writer's but because,

who. Or what.
These were unofficial Rus
slams, tourists not unlike those
American bands which travel
Europe and were unforgettably
described once in a Thomas
Wolfe story called "One Of the
Girls Of Our Party"
To return to the question
(aren't expositions labyrin-
thine?) it grew out of the fact
that the Russians, having the
next night to spend in New
York, wanted to know what
play they should see.
Fortunately, they asked it Of
their hostess, not their host
who happens to be a drama
critic.
OH-hand, thinking back to
the play she herself had en-
joyed most in New York this
season, she suggested "a Taste

Rabies Shots Due
 Saturday in kenai

Innoeulation of dogs against rabies is to take place in Kenai Saturday from 9 am to 5 pm. at the city clerks office.

The Kenai Peninsula cheechako news., 1961-12-15
Dog Packs Spell Danger

Dogs running in packs within the Soldotna city limits are be- coming nuisance and even worse. a menace to small children.
 The city of Soldotna as vet has no ordinance curbing dogs, regulating possession of animals within the city limits, or provid- ing that such pets be duly inoc- ulated against rabies and licensed.
 Two little girls were knocked down and mauled by several dogs in front of the Soldotna pos t office few days ago. They may have been seriously injured-or worse-if post office patrons had not driven the dogs away an q rescued the children.
 Most of the dogs are pets, it is true, and many of them follow the children to school. The school yard is reportedly fast becoming a playground for dogs as we'll as children. What starts out as play, however, sometimes develops into a quarrel or fight between t h animals and some of them become vicious.
 Irate citizens are becoming worried and fear that tragedy may come such as it did at kenai and Palmer in the past. Several years ago a Kenai child was killed and partly chewed up by dogs. A Palmer boy in recent months was mangled and is still pafalyzed from canine t. tack.
 The City Council is aware of the situation and may find it nec- essary to pass an ordinance to restrict dogs running at large l. dog owners do not voluntarily see that their pets are kept at home.
 The public Is asked to cooperate for the safety of the community. especially as it may safeguard their children or the children of neighbors.

JOhnsOns :
Consider
Les Ornnes
By AMELIA YOUNG
Star staff Writer

Vice President and Mrs.
Lyndon B. Johnson-in a
search for greater privacy,
security and space-may buy
the secluded chateau-type
mansion of their close friend,
Mrs. Perle Mesta.
Mrs. Mesta'S Spring Valley
house, Les Ormes, is one of
at least three places the
JohnsonS looked at before
leaving on their current tour
of Southeast Asia.
Repeatedly they favor the
MeSta mansion chiefly be-
cause of its privacy features:
The property is inclosed by
a gate and woods, and the
house is set back from the
road, with a winding drive
way that leads to the door.
The JohnsonS also want
more and better space for
entertaining, another selling
point for Les Ormes.
1t is understood that, if the
Vice President and his wife
purchase the house, Mrs.
Mesta will leave the beautiful
Venetian cartoons" on the
dining room walls and the
Sumptuous satin wall cover
ing in the drawing room.
(The cartoons" are color
sketches which were used as
patterns for tapestriesD
Mrs. MeSta's decision to
sell her house does not mean
she intends to leave Wash
ington. She has bought an
other piece of property in the
area as a site for a one story
California type residence.
Her sister. Mrs. George
Tyson, who helped Mrs,
Mesta plan and decorate Les
Ormes, commented on the
new building decorating
project: Il just love to do
houses.
The Johnsons' contem-
plated move would probably
entail a several-month tram
sition period, while their
present house is on the mar
ket and a new house under
goes any required or desired
changes.
1t is rumored that the Vice
President and his wife have
asked the Sheraton-Park
Hotel to hold open a three
bedroom apartment known as
the Bob Anderson suite"
(once occupied by the former
Secretary of the Treasury ,
in case they do need an in
terim residence. However. the
hotel manager, Mr.. George
