...Luci Baines, 16, insists that she is trying to shed what she calls her "Harry High School" image, but she recently had a group of teenagers in to dance the Frug in the Blue Room-a White House first. Lynda Bird, 20, a government major at George Washington University, often enriches her education when she spies a distinguished presidential visitor in the waiting room. She sits right down and starts popping a barrage of coed's questions about current events. Once Lynda spotted Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas and asked, "Now what have you been up to?"

At Camp Mystic in Texas, where she spent many summers, Luci often served as chaplain of her tribe because she could "pray so well when called on unexpectedly...

Sometimes Luci (née Lucy) Baines, 16, gets a chance to dance, provided she has finished her homework and is allowed to come down to the party. Then the President takes a turn with every lady in sight, missing nobody. "It's really terribly flattering," said Congresswoman Griffiths. "Where I grew up you had to have a stag line if a dance was any good. If it's the President cutting in, it's even better...
