...efforts, Walker makes about $200,000 a year. He travels in a chauffeured black Cadillac, which he briefly exchanged during the 1973 energy crisis for a wine-red Buick, and frequents the fashionable Burning Tree Golf Club and Sans Souci Restaurant, where a salad of Bibb lettuce and anchovies is named in his honor. But he also cultivates a deceptively down-home cornpone image. He and Wife Harmolyn rarely go out at night. Most of their entertaining is casual, such as weekend barbecues-over mesquite wood from Texas. Walker has another specialty: fried catfish. Says he: "You get some Yankees...

They relish politics more for the pleasure than the power, more...

Hamilton Jordan is a pizza proponent. He shuns the Sans Souci, a favorite Washington restaurant, thereby reaping contempt from a small but spirited group who consider the crabe en chemise (washed with a Sancerre '72) to be one of civilization's finer creations. Rosalynn Carter has taken the French off White House menus. She has a similar attitude toward fashion, refusing to consider it a high art form...

There last week was Mike Disalle, the former Democratic Governor of Ohio, Truman's price stabilizer, Kennedy pol and Johnson friend, looking as if he had not moved from his cushion in Sans Souci. He savored both the veal kidneys and the fact that his party would be moving back into the nearby White House...
