So you are flying to Eu-
rope and you are worried
about landing in strange
countries? Cease fretting,
my friend, you have really
nothing to worry about un-
til you return to your own.
Frances Knight, the ex-
tremely capable, live-wire di-
rector of the United States
Passport Office, is just back
from a five-country trip dur
ing which she made "quickie
inspections" of some Of our
consulates overseas.
II paid my own way, went
as an ordinary tourist, stood
in line like anyone else, and
found that there were no
problems. The trouble is
here" she said.
"Idlewild was designed by
men, my dear" she said look
ing this woman straight in
the eye and this WON an
knew exactly what she meant.
I would almost rather spend
my vacation in Falls Church
than have to return from the
French Riviera via Idlewild.
TT'S LIKE KITCHENS"
said Miss Knight. They are
designed by men who usu-
ally never GO into them.
II have gotten to the point
where I think bigness is, a
curse" said this marvel of
efficiency who turns out
4,300 passports a day and who
can turn out a rush pass
port in IS minutes, a routine
one in three days where it
used to take from three to
six weeks. mo one has time
to think of the human ele-
ment. Idlewild is a terrific
airport for handling planes
- but for the passengers"
she heaved a sigh.
II have no argument with
the public health service,
customs and immigration"
she quickly put in. "They are
wonderful. But once you get
through that barrier an d
start looking for transporta-
ton, you are out of luck
even if you speak peri e C t
English and know your way
around"
Between them, Miss Knight
and her husband, Wayne Par
rish-who, as editor and pub
Usher of 10 aviation, aero
nautical and missile maga-
zines, is now on his two
millionth air mile - know
a thing or two about the
world of travel. Yet her
recent experience of return
ing to the United States suf-
ficiently riled the passport
director as to cause her to
sit down and write a six
page, single-spaced, type
written letter to Mr.. S. Sloan
Colt, chairman of the board
of commissioners of the New
York Port Authority, with a
copy going to Secretary of
Commerce Luther Hodges. He
passed it on to new United

man being who is doing the
travelling.
Nor is this the only area
in which she has been try
ing to appease the traveller
American or foreign-who
comes to the United States.
IT want people to be happy
when they go abroad" said
the director of an office that
is in itself an invitation to
travel. People who go down
for passports get more ex-
cited about the prospect as
soon as they step into the
lounge with its gay tomato
colored and yellow chairs,
its end wall entirely papered
in travel posters. "And I also
want them to be happy when
they come home"
HENCE SHE STARTED
EIGHT MONTHS AGO to
encourage the Department
of Agriculture to get out a
brochure telling people what
they cannot bring into the
United States. They can't
bring in plants, food or seeds
but no one tells them this
until they arrive at the port
of entry and see everything
confiScated. Last month a
traveller from Italy had 1S
pounds of salami and bo-
logna confiscated after pay
ing the airline for 20 pounds
Of excess baggage.
"It would have been a very
simple thing if he had been
told in the consulate office"
where he applied for his visa,
explained Miss Knight, In
stead he began feeling bitter
about this country as soon
as he landed.
Miss Knight discovered
vast quantities of such con-
fiscationS going on when she
visited the New York docks
last fall. She found out that
no less than $50 lots of un-
authorized materials subject
to plant quarantine restric-
tions were intercepted daily
in 1860. and a pest of plant
quarantine significance was
intercepted at the rate Of
one each II minutes!
Plant disease and insect
damage runs from SO bill
lion to SIS billion annually
in this country, so it is of
tremendous Importance to
keep people from bringing
them in, but no one explains
this to the prospective trav-
eler.
The Department of Agri-
culture has now come up
with a brochure on the sub
ject which Miss Knight is
going to place in all United
States consulates abroad. In
the opinion of this colum-
mist, it needs to be worded
with a lot less ambiguity and
a lot more force. But it's a
start in the right direction,
points out Miss Knight.
President Kennedy's desire
to expand tourism in this
country may we'll meet with
success if all the men who
are in charge listen to the
one woman who makes it so
easy for us to go in the op-
posite direction.

NEW FRONTIER ARTIST
,Arthur's Wife Appears
Under 6 for Cannon
BY AMELIA YOUNG
Star Staff Writer

II the symbolic man OF the
New Frontier is a Harvard
graduate with muscles, the
symbolic woman is the artist
wife.
Mrs. Kennedy set that
symbol, of course. But there
are others.
Mrs. Arthur Goldberg, wife
of the Secretary of Labor, is
an artist.
And so is Mrs. Arthur M.
Schlesinger, jr., wife of the
presidential assistant.
The latter's reputation as
a painter, well established
back in Boston, has just be-
gun to leak out here. Little
wonder that it took so long,
because Mrs. Schlesinger, a
native New Highlander, is re-
served about her accomplish
ments almost to the point of
being taciturn.
When interviewed about
her work, she told a reporter,
"Oh, I'm only known as
Arthur's wife" -.
Under the C'S
But If you want to find
her in the Who's Who of
American Women, don't look
under the SIS, look under the
C's. She's listed as Marian
Cannon, whichsis her maiden
name and the one she uses
to sign her paintings. The
Identification doesn't include
that her husband is the
Pulitzer Prize winning his
torian.
Marian Cannon Schlesinger,
is a slender, dark-haired
woman with sensitive eyes
and an open manner that
warns her New England
economy of speech.
She achieves her real elo-
quence with line and color,
chiefly in the field of chill
dren'S portraits.
Since she painted the first
"a portrait of her twin son
and daughter at 2 years old
about II years ago, Mrs.
Schlesinger has been kept in
business by enchanted friends
and associates and now her
works hang in a good many
homes around Cambridge,
Mass.
The parents and grand
parents who have commits
stoned portraits include mem
bers of the Harvard and
NIT faculties, noted car
toonist Al Capp and, most
recently, colleagues in the
Kennedy administration.
Studies of Children
Mrs. Schlesinger's studies
of children are reminiscent
of Early American primitives.
They have a sweet gravity
that is very appealing, a
dignity not unsuited to the
young subjects. In their
clown suits and cowboy
boots and nighties, with their
playthings about them, Mrs.
Schlesinger's children emerge
as boys and girls of conse-
quence.
Her portraits, also her
imaginative paintings of birds
and horses, have been shown
at the Boston Arts Festival,
the Institute of Contempo-
rary Arts in Boston and the
Edna Stebbins Gallery in
Cambridge. But the place
where most fans discover her
work is the artists home.
Paintings by Mrs. Schle-
singer are the most arresting
feature of the house on o
street which she and her
hus and rent furnished.
(They plan to rent for the
duration here since Mr..
Schlesinger means to return
to Harvard when his Govern
ment tour is through.)
The wing room is
frightened with a portrait of
the three older Schlesinger
children. Stephen and Kath-
arine (the twins) with their
baby sister Christina. And in
another corner of the room
hangs a painting of the
youngest child Andrew, then
about 2. The twins are 19
now and go to college, Chris
tina is IA and Andrew IL.
Mrs. Schlesinger has been

LOS ANGELES, July l9.-If
first impressions are. lasting,
few of the 10 Redskins rockies
who kicked off the training
season here today will last very
long.
Too many So and 5-10 char
acters, weighing in the 220s,
are in the group. Watching
them stroll around the Occi-

impression that it is a conven-

GibrOn Takes Exception
There are a few big ones
here, of course. Charlie Barnes,
offensive end from Northeast
Louisiana State, is 6-5, 220;
Riley Mattson, offensive tackle
from Oregon, is 6-5, 240. Bill
