Two for the ICY

ing at peak efficiency is
found in two books on the

now to warrant critical ap-
praisal. The two excellent
books on ICY are Walter
Sullivan's ASSAULT ON

was an insider in the Times

theme of Volume II, subtitled
THE River War"
The Mississippi is the focal
point in the rivers busiest
and most significant year of
the war. Commodore Foote
and the land forces nip off
formidable Island No. 10 on
the upper Mississippi; Ad-
miral Farragut and his fleet
pierce the delta defenses and
Subjugate New Orleans; Ad-
miral Porter collaborates
with U. S. Grant to pave the
way for the surrender of mid
river Vicksburg.
These are the big single
events. But Pat Jones ex-
amines in detail such fasci-
mating Sidelights as the role
of the Confederate ironclad

The CIVIL WAX Al SEA
Volume H. BY Virgil Car
rington Jones. (Holt, Rine-
hart & Winston; So
Pat" Jones, whose past
association with the sea has
been no closer than Bull Run
which flows near his Centre
vile home, proceeds full
steam ahead through the sec
ond third of his history of
North and South naval ac-
tions in the war. His narra-
tive keel has evened. For one
thing he has mercifully
stopped calling his cruSty
principals by first name di-
minutives; for another. the
work seems to have been pre-
pared with less haste and
more deliberation than Vol
.ume I.
This is "humanized" his
tory, a field in which Mr..
Jones was active even before
Bruce Cation came along
with his similar approach to
Civil War events. Mr.. Jones,
like Mr.. Cation, has a tai
ent for breathing life into
the rigid ghosts of 100 years
ago. The minor but colorful
detail, and the revealing
quotes lifted from personal
accounts, newspaper reports
and official records, play an
important part in giving the
reader a feeling that he was
there among the shot and
shell, the discomforts and
anxieties of the people who
actually were. Mr.. Jones
style, brisk in the manner Of
the newspaperman he once
was, gives his history a drive
and drama which Surpasses
that of the POLITICALLY inclined
Mr.. Cation, and most Of the
Civil War writing fraternity.
The span of the present
volume extends from the de-
Struction of the Merrimack
early in so through the
Vicksburg campaign Of mid

In this picture Of a tardy

Broke All Rules
President Kennedy did it
again in Phoenix. Called
upon to eulogize in life the
ancient chairman of the SEN
ate Appropriations Commit
tee, Senator Hayden of Ari-
zona, the President broke
all the rules.
He recalled an encounter
with Senator Hayden, when
after making a speech as a
freshman, he sought to curry
favor with an elder by ask
ing, Senator, what's the diff
ference between the Senate
as you knew it and now?"
And the Senator said,
New members did not speak
in those days."
The Phoenicians, familiar
with their Senator's crusti-
ness, were charmed.
The Highest Pitch
In California, the President
brought his revolutionary
new art to its highest pitch.
Giving a much needed en-
dorsement to Gov. Edmund
G. Pat" Brown who faces
Richard M. Nixon in his fight
for reelection, the President
boldly called attention to the
Governors fallibility as a
political prophet. HE told
me I would win this State by
a million votes" said the
President, who lost California
to Mr.. Nixon.
Gov. Brown blushingIy
Joined in the laughter.
President Kennedy's per-
formance in the western
amusement capital was
judged by experts as a
miracle of timing and de-
livery.
ConnoiSseurs of his style
have noted that in press con-
ferenceS he tends to talk to
reporters as if they were
members of the cabinet and
to present problems in bleak,
minimal terms. When he
reads his speeches, he throws
away some of his biggest
lines and has not yet mas
tered the art of the close
that leaves no doubt whatever
that the Grafton has ended.
In reading portentouS ad-
dresses he still punches his
words in somewhat awkward
style and bears down heavily
on auxiliary verbs. When he
says II have come to Broken
Bow" for instance, he bears
down on have" rather than
come"
But when he was delivering
these sardonic econiumS on
fellow-Democrats, he came
into his own on the platform,
waiting for the laughs, and
hurrying on to yet another
satiric line. If he does not
do another thing, he will, by
making the political endorse
ment a comic occasion, have
made a major contribution
to our culture comparable to
inviting Pablo Casals to the
White House.
