NEW YORK, Dec. 2 (UP)-—Mrs. | Alben Barkley will make her first, official appearance tonight as the second lady of the land, and she doesn’t have a bit of stage fright.| The radiant blue-eyed woman, who laughingly admitted to having made one traditional boner already, said in an interview that| her only lesson in political pro-| tocol was her husband's example

and thrée words of his advice.

“He says at all times if you don’t know what to do, just be Barkley said.| “That's what he does, And I think

natural,” Mrs.

he's done just fine.”

The lady from St. Louis will! make her political debut at the! Democratic National Committee's!

speaker. She'll be ' meeting the

cabinet members and. governors, and party officials in a black satin | and lace dinner dress and a pair of black satin pumps which she,

acting naturally, carried unwrapped to a Fifth Avenue shop Yesterday, had stretched and carried hme in a bag.

Bridal Boner

The rest of her first New York shopping trip in five years — while her bridegroom napped in their Waldorf suite — was spent buying face cream and remedying the bridal boner, .

“I didn’t pack a sirigle slip! new,

The Barkleys arrived yesterday | from Sea Island, Ga., where they | have spent the greater part of their honeymoon. Mrs. Barkley, clad in a strapless black net eve- | ning gown, attended a perform-| ance at the Metropolitan Opera, . last night while the “Veep” went | to a stag dinner given by the) Thoroughbred Racing Associa-
