Boom In Culture Is Underway In Nation
By HARRY FERGUSON United Press International WASHINGTON (UPD —A recent visitor to the White House asked President Kennedy to identify the subject of an oil portrait hanging in the Blue Room. Kennedy stud-
ied it for some time and then replied, “I don’t know. Those •things have been changed so much.” Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy did not strike the match that ignited the cultural explosion in the United States, but she has been so active in promoting it that sometimes even her husband can’t keep up with her. The nation is fairly familiar with the changes she has made in the White House as a result of the televised tour she conducted. But her influence has been wider and deeper than what has happened at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Start At Once The Kennedys plumped for culture as soon as they moved in. The doors were thrown open to long-hair music, ballet and Shakespeare, which represented a sharp change from what went on during the administration of Dwight D. Eisenhower. So carried away by the new order of things was Arthur Schlesinger Jr., special assistant to the President, that he could not resist a comment on Eisenhower’s taste for popular music: “In the executive mansion, where Fred Waring and his Pennsylvanians once played, we now find Isaac Stern, Pablo Casals, Stravinsky and the Oxford Players. I think we will not leave it .to the Soviet Union to discover the Van Cliburns of the future.” Has Wide Influence The influence of the White House is so wide that whatever the President or the First Lady show an inteiei. in has a good chance of enjcjlng a boom. Mrs. Kennedy has been active in the National Cultural Center here, she attended the opening night of the Lincoln Center in New York and she received this citation from New York University: “Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy, through her genuine concern for

the fine arte, has served the people well- She has enhanced the importance of the ■ White House as a national artistic monument.” What she did in the White House was to order an inventory of about 26,000 items in storage, and she made some interesting discoveries. She began to move out some of the modern furniture and replace it with antiques. She persuaded wealthy persons to donate about $1 million worth of antiques and art objects. Kennedy appointed August Heckscher, director of the Twentieth Century Fund, as White House cultural co-ordinator and one of his duties is to survey the relationship between the government and the arts which has been cool almost to the freezing point. Arouses Most Suspicion Painting seems to arouse more suspicion among the anti-culture group than any other art, and there are always stories going arund about some abstract artist who won first prize with a painting that was hanging upside down. — Last year first prize in a water color contest entered by 12,000 high school students on the theme of “What America Means to Me” was awarded to Sharon Whittaker of Ravenna, Ohio. Her entry showed a bleeding American eagle lying on the ground, and persons viewing it here asked what it symbolized. Nobody could explain it except Sharon, who said the American eagle was half dead because of all the strife and worry going on in the United States. Such things do not discourage the interest in and sale of art. Sears Roebuck & Co. currently is dealing in art and you can buy it on the installment plan. An exhibit put together by Vincent Price is currently on tour of American cities and did good business in Washington. Prices run from a few dollars up to several hundred and the frame always is included. Another Puzzler Sculpture, too; encounters some lifted eyebrows among the nonbelievers. Two years ago, Jean Tinguely, a Swiss sculptor, put together an awesome machine for the New York Museum of
Manpower Advisory Committee Named INDIANAPOLIS (UPD-A 15member Governor’s Manpower Advisory Committee was appointed , Thursday by Governor Walsh with Franklin D. Schurz, South Bend Tribune publisher, as chairman. The committee will coordinate efforts of local groups concerned with manpower supply, demand and utilization and will concentrate on training and retraining programs under the federal Manpower Development and Training Act of 1962. Schurz also is chairman of the St. Joseph County local committee which helped obtain in South Bend approval of the first training classes in the nation last September. Classes also are in progress or ready to start in Indianapolis, Evansville, Fort Wayne, Columbus, Bedford, Terre Haute and Lake County. , Welsh said the advisory committee will “be my principal adviser on training programs” and provide liaison with Washington agencies. He said federal allotments to Indiana for training and retraining would probably amount to more than $3 million in the next fiscal years. Other members of the commit Modern Art. It was called "Homage to New York” and consisted of old bicycle wheels, lathes, electric fans, gongs, saws, baby carriages from the dumps, and an ancient player piano all of which were connected with a battery. The whole thing was 27 by 23 feet and was painted white. Tinguely pressed a plunger connected with the battery and “Homage to New York” began to clank, groan and burn. The exhibit was a success until some non-artistic person turned in a fire alarm- The New York Fire Department used foamite to put out the blaze.

Twenty-five years ago, uterine cancer was the major cause of cancer death in women. Today, it is one of the most curable of cancers. The simple, painless “Pap test” helps doctors detect cancers of the uterus in time. Ask your doctor for the “Pap test” during your annual health checkup. The American Cancer Society has invested about $ 1,000,000 in the development and use of the “Pap test.” B Scientists are working on other projects that cost even more. And finding the cause and cure of cancer is one of America’s most urgent and costly projects. 7o Cure More—Give Mere AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY
