The West German lawyer

he would argue that Eich-

Inaugural
 BaiIgoers Just Wouldn't Dance
By Frances Le1oine

WASHINGTON R - President John F. Kennedy went to five inaugural balls Friday night and announced at the windup that he had yet to see anybody dance.
 He had right to be surprised. According to the dictionary, a ball is a large assembly for social dancing.
 But, then, Kennedy and his wife, Jacqueline didn't dance either. And Mrs Kennedy went home after the third ball, leav- ing her husband and Vice Presi- dent Lydon Johnson to carry the ball - as it were.
 The thousands of guests who paid $25 to $40 each to come to he social highlight of the four day inaugural festivities followed protocol on wearing white time and formal gowns.
 The Inaugural Committee pro- vided the best setting it could: Hotel bathrooms and gayly decorated though huge and barnlike armory. There were society orchestras, Army herald trumpets, royal blue and gold Presidential boxes, all the neces- sary ingredients.
 But, the message about dancing never got through.
 Lets Dance
 At the armory, where 45 min utes of the ball was carried to television, dancing was called for Gin the name of the President" Those in TV audience "want to find us dancing at the ball." the master of ceremonies pleaded just before airtime.
 Meyer Davis and his orchestra played "I Could Have Danced All Night"
 But the majority of close to 10000 ballgoers just wouldn't go along. And, in all fairness, the dance floor was crowded at times that they couldn't have danced if they wanted to.
 There were certain main ob- jectives at all five balls - to get a close look at the President, to be able to claim the distinction of having been here and, per haps, to take a snapshot of the newly inaugurated President.
 The guests could say they had champagne -. even if it was served in paper cups. And they could eat or take home as sou venir a piece of the 5,617 pounds of inaugural fruit cake.

Ward Profits
Turn Down

CHICAGO, May % (AP).-
Stockholders of Montgomery
Ward & Co. yesterday heard a
first-quarter earnings report
which Chairman John A. Barr
called disappointing.
Although sales for the period
were up SO per cent from the
first quarter of last year, earn
ingS dropped to $l,759,000,
equal to II cents a share, COM
pared with $2,122,000 or IA
cents a share a year ago.
Mr.. Barr told the Stockhold-
erS that after showing some
improvement in February and
March, April profits were very
poor" He ascribed the "rela-
lively poor showing" in April
to an earlier Easter this year
and to poor weather which,
combined, produced weak de-
mand in comparison with the
first quarter of 1860.
