theme song, Diamonds Are
a Girls Best Friend" and
bye, Bye, Baby" which is
Mrs, Kennedy's favorite from
the same show, and did an
hysterical take-off on an
early movie star.
Actually Burns and Chan
ming were the hit of the
johnson party in direct con-
trast to their performance at
the gala which was the
biggest disappointment on
the program. At the Armory
Burns so monopolized their
number Carol never had a
chance to shine, and he in
troduced one off-color joke
after another with each one
going over like a lead bal
loon. Since he never made
his fame with Oracle on TV
with any such routine, one
wonders why he thought a
dressy audience of 500 sub
scribers would go for 1t.
Carol Burnett vowed the
same audience of 5000 with
a clean and truly comical
skit. But at the Johnsons,
the Burns and Charming
performances were suited to
the decorum Of the situa-
ton and both were knock
outs.
Come to think Of It,
through it all one wonders
why the hostess wasn't
knocked out after last week
end. On the heels of that
late supper for IS, Lady Bird
Johnson entertained over 100
Democratic women at a tea
in her home the next after
noon.
1t takes stamina to be in
politics!
THE PRESIDENTS MILL
TARY AIDE, Maj. Gen. Ted
Clifton has come up with a
unique recipe that may revo-
lutionize breakfast or what
ever. The general reveals
that the morning after New
Years eve he arose with his
mind set on pancakes for
brunch, and being an anna
teur chef, he proceeded to
prepare same himself.
Alas, however, when he
reached into the refrigerator
for some milk there was
none; only some leftover egg
nog. So in place of the milk
called for on the recipe of the
pancake mix, he decided to
pour in the same amount Of
the well-laced richer mixture.
"You should have seen those
pancakes rise" said Ted. who
added he had never turned
out a fluffier or more delec-
table batch. Said Anne
Clifton of the Eggnog Pam
cakes, "They were divine. 1t
might have been just the
power Of suggestion, but we
felt considerably better after
eating them!"
So there you are, a new
wrinkle for entertaining, to
be served with melted butter
and syrup If desired.

O'Briens and Ken O'Donnells
from the White House, and
all the cast, producers, writer's,
etc. and their spouses. No
press we're invited but
naturally you couldn't expect
the most wide-eyed guests to
seal their lips about any
gathering that sensational.
The evening was already
five hours long when the
Kennedys and Johnsons ar
rived at The Elms, so they
had good reason to be weary.
But they made a point of
talking to everyone of the
stars and flattered them by
knowing something about the
past accomplishments of
each. When 1t comes to the
personal touch this team is
haru 70 beat.
THE FABULOUS flamenco
dancer couldn't speak Eng
ish but he was transported
when Jacqueline Kennedy
talked to him for awhile in
Spanish. So was Yves Mon
tand when she had a chat
with him in French. In fact,
they were all so transported
by the whole to-do, as soon
as the Kennedys had supped
at one Of the small tables in
the johnson dining room
they decided to put on an
other show for them. Unfor-
tunately, the great Met So
prano Joan Suther a n d
thought the Kennedys had
gone when they went in to
supper, so she left before the
acts that followed.
Producer Richard Adler in
troduced the singers and
they stood in the doorway
at the top Of the three steps
that lead down into the
drawing room, where the
ranking guests sat in chairs
and most of the cast sat on
the floor.
Peter, Paul and Mary first
delighted them with a folk
number. Then Negro singer
Shirley Bassey gripped them
with a song into which she
put so much emotion her
hands we're clenched and the
tears rolled down her cheeks.
She's the Judy Garland type.
THEN CAME THE HI
LARIOUS PART of the show.
Gene Kelly rolled back the
vice presidential rug a little
so he could do a soft shoe
to Carol Burnett's vocalizing,
with Carol first rushing out
to the car to get her orches-
trations. While the comedi-
enne warbled Singing in the
Rain" he danced, calling out
once Faster. Carol" only to
be mimicked by Carol who
promptly sang so fast he had
to beg her to slow down.
George Burns sang la Vie
en- Rose" which rocked his
audience with laughter.
THAT was Yiddish French"
he announced when he fin
ished. Yves Montand sang
two or three French hits, and
Carol Charming did her

EXCLUSIVELY YOURS
The President Sang
For Stars at Supper

1t was an exclusive party.
1t was so limited not even
all the Kennedy family we're
present. The stars performed
all over again. The President
of the United States sang for
them! And the stars left in
such an aura of. enchant-
ment that they offered to
come back and do it all over
again next year.
Il wouldn't have believed it
If hadn't been there, gasped
big orbed Carol Charming
afterwards. 1T was the
greatest party I have ever
been tot"
And President Kennedy
was so enchanted with the
success of the whole Demo-
cratic Gala that raised about
a million dollars for his
party. that he has decided
from now on to have no more
500 dinner. The gala will be
the annual affair instead. He
observed at the White House
the other evening that he had
never seen the Armory look
so we'll. Apparently everyone
participating said it was the
best benefit Of that type they
had ever taken part in.
The party that left the
stars walking on clouds was
the aftergala supper at the
Lyndon Johnsons'. President
and Mrs. Kennedy went there
straight from the Armory
and stayed for two hours
mingling with the perform
ers, by way of expressing
their thanks to them for do
mating their talents.
That was the whole idea
of the party, of course, and
the Democrats running the
dinner asked the Johnsons to
give it because their house
would lend itself so much
better than the White House
to the kind Of warm and in
formal gathering desired. 1t
was ideally suited for the
impromptu performances that
were bound to emerge in the
presence of such spectacular
talent.
THE PRESIDENT GOT
INTO THE ACT because ev-
cry time one of the per-
formers got up to sing Gene
Kelly would call out, Sing
something Irish" No one
needed his request, but fl
nally when each had done
his stint, John Kennedy spoke
up.
IN sing something Irish"
he said. Let's sing The
Wearin of the Green,'" he
told Gene. Wnereupon the
two did a duet their listen
ers called "out of this world"
Cracked George Burns to
one of the other stars, We've
got to get that guy out of our
racket. First he tops us all
with his gags. Now he's sing
ing"
Only about rs people we're
there. In addition to the Ken
nedys and their hosts, there
were Princess Radziwill; Gala
Chairman Bedford Wynne.
and his wife; Democratic Ma
tional Chairman John Bailey
