! Keeps 2 Aides Busy
The tall brisk secretary han
dies so many tasks for the
Maryland Chief Executive that
she keeps two secretaries of her
own busy.
The Governors office and So
cial schedules and personal
mail are Miss Finegan's prime
responsibilities. She works ''in
conjunction" with Mrs. Tawes
to see that the Governor is at
the proper place at the proper
time in the proper attire. .
"After conferring with Gov.
and Mrs. Tawes, I distribute
copies of his schedule for the
coming week to them and the
State Trooper who chauffeurs
him." she says. The schedule
notes if the appointment is
black tie or informal.
Miss Finnegan also maneuv-
ers his schedule to include trips |

She dictates replies to the
countless wedding invitations

handles requests for pictures
and pleas for charity donations. |

weddings of personal friends,
she notes, and the charities are
carefully checked for .authen-

Stream Of Invitations
The Governor also receives
an endless stream of invitations
to banquets, parties. lunch
cons, breakfasts. crab feasts
and presentations, openings
and ground-breaking ceremo-
nies. Miss Finnegan keeps a
calendar, which already has
1862 entries, of acceptances.
Although she juggles sched-

GETTYSBURG. Pa, Nov. 20
An almost Orwellian thought
control" by its leaders led the
South into the nightmare of
secession and Civil War and
the unhappy aftermath that
continues today.
This appraisal of how Dixie
went astray was given last night
by a Southerner, James w
Silver, Mississippi University
professor of history. He was
first of a series of speakers in
the Fifth Annual Civil War
Conference sponsored by
Gettysburg College.
In the tradition of thought
controllers before and since,
Southern leadership from 1920
to 1860 was provided by "sec-
ond-claSs men," sorry heirs to
the likes of jefferson, Mason
and Madison. according to Mr..
Silver.
Their only Shortcoming was
demagoguery, all they wanted
was power, Mr.. Silver explained.
