women quoting Ogden Nash. In an effort
to boost the standing of her sex in Iran,
Turkey, Greece, Cyprus and Italy, Lady
Bird asked to meet with the women
"doers," not just the wives of "doers." And
to all she quoted NaSh'S poem that begins
like this:
"I rise to salute the feminine ser,
You neuer can tell phat they're up to merit,
You neUer can tell if lady is going
To rock cradle or build Boeing."
Enchanted, her women listeners wrote
NashS lines down, word for word.

Both the fabulous Maya PliSetskaya
and her famed fragile blond predecessor
as prinla ballerina, Galina Ulanova, who
now does coaching and choreography,
watched the proceedings with interest from
their separate supper tables where the
appetizer was fresh caviar washed down
with vodka, naturally.
There was the second touching reunion
of the two brothers Faier, who had met for
the first time, after 45-year separation,
in 1859. 1t brought mist to the blind eyes
of the aging Bolshoi conductor Yuri Faier,
and to the seeing eyes of his brother
Myron Faier Of Chicago a former precinct
captain of Adlai Stevenson'S presidential
campaigns.
The noted conductor, who committed
every ballet score to memory when he
knew he was going blind but can no longer
see the graceful motions in front of him,
didn't want to let go of his brothers hand.
Said the American Mr.. Faier, who left
Russia before the revolution, he was going
to have bigger reunion with his own
children, grandchildren and his brother
when the latter goes to Chicago.
Washington will see the Bolshoi on
this visit for whole week when it comes
to the Capitol Theater November 13
through the 18th.
incidentally, Ambassador Dobrynin
said the reason Benny Goodman was not
received more enthusiastically at the be-
ginning of his recent tour of Russia, was
because the. Russians had expected to hear
straight Jazz from Goodman rather than
the more classical type jazz he played.
Long-haired jazz apparently didn't seem
like jazz to them, and must say this is
one time agree with the Russians.
