Adroitly sidestepping a political question (she was in favor of tax reduction, "as who isn't?"), the First Lady gave the impression of a busy, happy household manager. She was equal to the formidable daily schedule: "I enjoy it thoroughly." The only drawbacks are the President's long working hours and the fact that "there isn't time to do the personal things you'd like to." She seldom sees Ike before dinnertime. In the evenings, the President is usually "too tired to talk," retires shortly after dinner, to which the Eisenhowers sit down...

Theory 4: "Send the team which will make the best showing." Simple as eating crow, isn't it? Now Harvard has only beaten Yale twice, Princeton once, B.U. twice, and has been playing great hockey in its last and first games, but it's undependable. And B.C. hasn't been beating anybody except major opposition. We'll send R.P.I. Yessirree, those boys have really been on lately--12-0 over Hamilton, 13-1 over Providence. They did, of course, beat one good team, St. Lawrence...
