Two seasoned woman flyers
buttonholed Vice President
Lyndon B. johnson today in
their quest to put a woman
perhaps one of them-in
orbit.
Mrs. Philip A. Hart, a
mother Of eight and wife Of
Michigan's junior Senator,
and Jerrie Cobb, a widely
known Oklahoma ayiatrix,
were to ask Mr.. johnson to
urge the National Aeronau-
tics and Space Administra-
ton to continue testing
women for space flights.
Both have taken the ardu-
GUS physical tests undergone
by the seven male Mercury
AStronauts. And both are
anxious that the United
States beat Russia to the
punch in sending a woman
into outer space. Mrs. Hart
is convinced the Russians
will accomplish the feat by
September.
Since NASA put IL women
Thorough the physical tests
in New Mexico more than a
year ago, Mrs. Hart said, the
program has stalled. She
said this was largely due to
; the reluctance of NASA Ad-
ministrator James E. Webb.
The two woman filters want
Mr.. Johnson, in his role as
chairman of the National
AeronauticS and Space Coun-
, Gil, to put in a good word for
their cause with Mr.. Webb.
Miss Cobb. 81, said yester-
day that the big obstacle is
that astronauts are required
to have jet testing expert
ence-and women aren't ad-
mitted to the Air Force Jet
testing school.
She said I'D even settle for

Stor|et Ann-Morgret
Meets Capital Stars
BY DAISY CLELAND
star Staff Writer

SN~e SSSeN "ANSA
Washington hosts Dale
Miller and Mrs. Miller intro
duced a movie starlet to
several Capital stars last
evening.
The Millers gave a recep-
ton in honor Of Ann
Margret. the new Hollywood
discovery. who plays the
young romantic lead with Pat
Boone in the soon-to-be-
released film, state Fair"
The well composed Ann
Margret, 20, met such real
Washington stars as Mrs.
Lyndon johnson, wife Of the
Vice President. many mem
bers Of Congress, the Diplo-
matte Corps and officials and
members Of Washington
society.
Ann = Margret, Swedish
born. stood close to her
mother, Mrs. Gustav Olson,
and after reporters ques-
toned Mrs. Olson about Ann
Margret, her daughter
simply stated, Since 1t Is nv
mother. I think it will be
good: If she's not for me,
well. :"
Mrs. Olson explained with
. heavy Swedish accent and
against the typical back
drop Of q Washington party
more about the family:
I'VE came here (the United
States) when our daughter
was s. We had her take
dancing lessons when she
had been here Just two
months but she didn't speak
English. She had always loved
to sing and dance. We want
ed her to have all the oppor-
tunities and the good luck. -.
mo, never in our dreams
was all this, added Mrs.
Olson, who was watching her
daughter on the sidelines
say the proper things to each
of the Millers' guests. The
youthful Mrs. Olson, with
chestnut hair and sparkling
blue eyes. added that al
though they had had a home
in Winetka, Ill.,, she and her
husband, an electrician, had
moved out to Beverly Hills,
Calf. to be with their daugh-
ter and only child. 1--WE are
a very close family. We got
lonely, so we move"
Ann-Margret went through
her role last evening like a
movie pro but with still the
ShyneSs of a hopeful.
Wearing a slinky green mat
jersey dress with much more
material in the bodice than
in the skirt or the back, she
blinked her big gray-green
eyes as she stood between two
tall Texans, Dale Miller and
former Representative Frank
lizard, and said with all the
drawl she could muster, "You
know what I like about you
all you're just so big and
friendly"
The main staging Of the
production, Estate Fair" is in
Dallas, Tex. Mr.. Miller rep
resents the Dallas Chamber
Of Commerce here in Wash
ington. And the Texans
turned out for Swedish-born
Ann-Margret (she uses no
last name on the stage). Mr..
Miller laughingly made the
starlet a member Of his State
by stating that Sweden was
"the Northeastern part Of
Texas"
Mrs. Miller was wearing a
becoming dress Of draped
pink chiffon by Cell Chap
man as she greeted the guests
with no formal receiving line.
Popular Luxembourg Am
bassador Heisbourg was there,
saying that his country
is becoming a bit more
like England, at least as far
as the National holiday is
concerned from now on
Luxembourg will celebrate in
June instead Of January. The
custom has been to mark the
Grand Duchess birthday on
the 23rd Of January. Now
the thought is that the head
Of states birthday should be
a movable feast, as in Eng
land-a time when the
weather is good. So this
year it will be June %. That

TO OUR READERS

In line with our policy of keeping abreast of the
latest in methods of newspaper production the pub
fishers of the Chronicle decided six months ago to
change method of printing from conventional let
terpress to relatively process, known photo
offset Our next ISSUE January A, 1868, will be the first
produced by this method.
How will photo offset benefit our readers? First, it
will give us the opportunity of obtaining the finest
quality print that know of at this time The dis
cerning reader will at notice the sparkling pictures
with faithfuness of reproduction approaching original
photos the slightly larger, more readable type
face which employing; and the size of the
overall, which will be reduced to conform to modern
newspaper size Secondly it will enable to present
a publication effectively planned throughout.
Thirdly, viii be able to offer advertisers fex
ibity unknown before, with it now being possible to
create designs and format unobtainabe under the
previous operation In summary, believe that photo
offset is the newest and most dynamic approach avail
able to paper in fulfilling its responsibilities to its
readers and community.
We hope, in future ISSUE to acquant readers
with the techniques of this modern reproduction meth
3D.
At the Chronicle we have been extremely busy in
the past few months learning what amounts to an
trely trade, dealing with new typesettng
machines. and tools and supplies with which we

believe that in a short time you will agree that

According to the U. S. Immigra-
ton and Naturalization ervic e,
failure to comply with law per-
tanning to annual report of address

severe penalties and adversely af-
feet the status of the violater.
