...maneuver through an Ellery Queen. Breakfast was at 8 o'clock on the patio, with Dulles decked out in sports shirt, slacks and the hat. At 9:30 Army Captain Edward J. Kamin, an internal medicine specialist who had flown down in the presidential Columbine with Dulles and wife Janet from Washington, gave his patient a checkup. At 10:30 Dulles' capable personal assistant Joseph N. Greene called the State Department, got a 15-minute briefing, passed it along to his boss.

Like an eggbeater marching through a bowl of Wheaties, Air Force Lieut. Colonel Charles H. Platt Jr. led his wife and four children through the crowded, throbbing Military Air Transport Service terminal at suburban Tokyo's Tachikawa Airport, largest military airbase in Japan. MATS clerks straightened, for Colonel Platt was notable local brass: he was commanding officer of the MATS terminal.

As his daughter, O'Brien Nicholas looked and sang as prettily as usual. Betsy Peterson Spiro, as the first wife, brought off her torch song effectively, complete with sultry advances toward Master Perkins, who was lucky enough to be in the first row.

Our heating bill averages $20.00 per month. Thus the cost of having a place to live is over $100.00 per month.
