The family of Lyndon B.
johnson was together for the
first time today since he be-
came President and joined with
him in the final ceremonies for
John F. Kennedy.
The Presidents older daugh-
ter, Lynda Bird, 10, arrived
home last night from Austin,
Tex. She is a sophomore at the
University Of Texas.
The younger daughter. Lucy,
16, is a junior at the National
Cathedral School for Girls.
The family walked in sorrow
in. the funeral procession i'm
mediately behind Mrs. Jacque-
line Kennedy.
Mrs. johnson, dressed in
black, and the two daughters
walked beside the President to
st. Mathews. Mrs. johnson
had not planned to make the
walk, but apparently plans
were changed during the night.
AS a marx of the changes
which have come in the lives
Of the closely knit family since
an assassin's bullet felled the
late President, several hundred
people gathered outside the
johnson home in Spring Valley
yesterday and last night.
Secret Service Guards Girls
And wherever the girls went,
they were accompanied by a
Secret Service agent. 1t will
be a way of life for them as
long as their father is Presi-
dent.
1t was demonstrated for
Lucy, a slender brunette, when
she drove her own car, q small
white convertible, out of the
driveway Of her home yester-
day. A Secret Service agent sat
beside her.
He was there when Lucy re-
turned Is minutes later bring

Extru Security Teams
Flown in for Funeral

Nearly q score Of threats on
the lives Of visiting dignitaries
added today to the tension sur
rounding the work Of the larg-
est security force in the history
Of Washington.
Although we believe they
are the work Of cranks or
pranksters, we Just can't take
any chances" said a high
ranking police official who
asked not to be identified.
That's why We have the tight
est security in history"
Nearly 800 special agents, in
veStigators and police detec-
tives-many Of them Federal
officers flown in from cities
al over the country - were
working to guard the scores
Of dignitaries from around the
world.
The nerve center for the un-
precedented, security force is a
special command post on the
seventh floor Of the State De-
partment Building. In charge
Of the force is Keith o. Lynch.
head of the departments divi-
sion Of protective security.
Personal BOdyguards
In addition. many of the for
eign visitors have brought with
them their own bodyguards and
security officers.
Never before has the Ma
tons Capital been visited by
so many Presidents and heads
Of governments at one time.
And never before have security
officers had so little time to
prepare for such an influx.
Normally, when q we'll
known foreign statesman ar
rives, elaborate precautions are
taken to guard his line of
travel and the places he will
visit. Detailed planning for |
such a visit normally takes
weeks. on this occasion, there |
has been little or no time.
Trained security officers
have been borrowed from a
variety Of Federal agencies
and from the Army's Counter
intelligence Corps and its
Criminal Investigation Divi-
sion.
The Metropolitan Police De-
partment contributed its spe-
cial investigation squad,
headed by Inspector John L.
Sullivan. This is the squad
that customarily works with

in the city.

President Lyndon B. johnson
and members Of his family and
members Of the family of the
late President
The Metropolitan Police
meanwhile modified all Of its
resources and called upon the
District National Guard to
help handle the huge crowds.
With all leaves cancelled.
there were more than 2,700
officers, out Of a total police
force of 1900. on duty today.
About ITS officers were on
leave and could not be reached
or were home sick in bed,
Police Chief Robert v. Murray
said.
Police office forces we're cut
down to skeleton crews so that
every available man could be
put on the street.
Even then. there was a criti-
cal shortage of officers to
handle crowds and traffic.
Some of the officers assigned
to control the crowds around
the Capitol at 8 am. yesterday
were still on duty more than
"a hours later. The only food
they had had was coffee and
doughnuts furnished during
the night by the Red Cross
and the Salvation Army.
All Officers on Duty
Both the Capitol and the
Park Police had every available
officer on duty.
Some of the elaborate secu-
rity precautions were taken in
the view of thousands of per-
sons on the sidewalks near the
White House. Uniformed and
plainclothes officers from the
Metropolitan Police could be
seen at 10 am. and again
shortly before the procession
arrived as they went down the
street lifting and looking I'M
der manhole covers.
Other officers went along
the street looking up at win |
dows in buildings along the
route. Spectators |
we're ordered off the tops Of
buildings where they
had gathered.
To help with the traffic, the
police borrowed $50 men from
the District National Guard
and another rs were contrib
uted by the Armed Forces Po-
lice, who provided communi-
cations along the line Of march
during yesterdays procession.
This morning. both police 4
and chartered buses stood by
to move officers from the area
Of the Capitol around the con-
gested downtown area to the
of the White House
and the route to st. Matthew's
Cathedral.

Milford High School News

With April being teaching ca
reer month, the Milford High
Future Teachers Club has
planned several projects which
they hope will maturate. The
main idea is to have an as
Sembly program. In this pro-
gram, the members will give the
student body better picture OF
a teaching career. A short play
will be presented and several
Informative speeches on the as
poets Of teaching will be given.
After the assembly program, a
reception will be given honoring
the teachers. AT this reception,
light refreshments will be
served.
Courtesy Week" is another
idea. During this week, the stu
dent body will be on their best
behavior toward teachers and
students.
Mrs. Grace Montgomery, the
adviser, suggested a scholar
ship could be started. Several
projects could be started to
raise money which would go in
to the fund. The scholar ship
would be awarded to a deserv-
ing senior planning to enter the
field Of education.
The last idea is to order pins
which the National Future
Teachers Association recog-
nizes. All Of these ideas are
indefinite as to actual dates Of
occurrence.
Achievement tests in mathe-
matics and foreign languages will

Today many Americans are
finding new careers in overseas
work.
The pay is good, ranging from
81, 900 to $50, 900 per year. The
good pay, however, makes up for

hardships. In some areas the
nearest American doctor may be
1000 air miles away.
Most Americans are working
abroad for "the thrill of being
in the thick Of history"
More soil conservationists,
livestock and poultry adviser,
and qualified health workers are
needed. The most pressing Of
all is the need for more teach
ers. There are presently 10000
Americans teaching in foreign
countries.
The ability to speak a foreign
language Is very vital qualifi-
cation. The most important
qualification is the ability to do

Calvin Woodland, a Golden
Gloves champion of a few
years ago, lost a decision but
saved a show for Promoter
Goldie Ahearn last night at
Capitol Arena.
Until the 133-pound gamester
and Jerry Brewer of Baltimore
stepped into the ring for the
six-round finale, Ahearn's first
step in reviving pro boxing here
was a dismal flop. 1t made the
ITO fans appreciate amateur
boxing. But Woodland and
Brewer generated enough
sparks in their six-rounder to
send most Of the viewers home
happy.
You had to look quickly to
see any part of the eight-round
feature, which lasted exactly
AZ seconds. Two other bouts
lasted a total of 4 minutes and
80 seconds and left the Gus

been short-changed.
