President Not to Attend
Women’s Press Dinner
WASHINGON UP) — President
Kennedy today decided not to at
tend a women’s press dinner to
night to avoid any additional
strain in his ailing back.
The White House, announcing
the change in plans, reported
Kennedy continues to improve,
however.
The Chief Executive, still using
his crutches, walked with greater
apparent ease than newsmen had
observed in a week when he got
out of his helicopter on returning
from Middleburg, Va., to the
White House this morning.
The President and Mrs. Ken
nedy had been scheduled to at
tend the annual dinner of the j
Woman’s National Press Club at a
Washington hotel tonight.
Pierre Salinger, White House
press secretary, said Mrs. Ken
nedy would join in the festivities
but the Chief Executive would
skip the affair.
“The feeling is that with the
progress he is making, no added
strain should be placed on his
back at this time,” Salinger said.

I Dr. Martin Luther King
Called American Gandhi
ALBANY, N.Y. UP) — Gov. Nel
son Rockefeller called the Rev.
| Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., an
j American Mahatma Gandhi.
The Negro integration leader
i said the nation should be in
debted to the Republican gover
nor of New York for his liberal
concern for man’s dignity.
The exchange took place Friday
night at a fund-raising rally for
the Southern Christian Leader
i ship conference. The conference
\ seeks to achieve racial integra
; tion in the south through free
! dom rides and other non-violent
means, the principal Gandhi prac
tice in India.
Rockefeller and Dr. King flew
here from and returned to New
j York City together in the gover
nor’s private plane. Dr. King was
Rockefeller’s guest at dinner and
the governor was a guest of the
rally.
The predominantly Negro audi
ence of about 2,000 in a Negro
church applauded spontaneously
; as Rockefeller and Dr. King paid
j tribute to each other.
The governor welcomed Dr.
i King as “one of the great Ameri
can spiritual leaders.”
* Dr. King in turn cited the gov
ernor “for his genuine liberalism,
his humanitarian concern and his
unswerving devotion to the prin
ciples of human dignity.”
The pig is smarter than he
looks. A study made at Cornell
University found the lowly grunt
er easily the most intelligent of
all domestic animals.
Actor Jeff Chandler
Dies at Age of 42
I
HOLLYWOOD W—Jeff Chand
ler had been gravely ill for weeks
but Hollywood still found it dif
ficult to believe today that the
rugged movie hero was dead at
the age of 42.
“We all thought he was getting
better,” said a close friend. “Just
a few days ago he was griping.
That’s always a sure sign of re
covery.”
“I just can’t believe it,” said
another friend, actor Tony Curtis.
Chandler died Saturday of a
generalized blood infection com
plicated by pneumonia. The com
plications developed after rela
tively minor surgery was per
formed May 13 to correct a slip
ped spinal disc.
Chandler suffered internal
hemorrhages and infections fol
lowing the surgery. He was given
55 pints of blood by transfusion
during one emergency operation
for a ruptured artery which lasted
7Vfe hours.
Chandler injured his back early
this spring while making “The j
Marauders” in the Philippines. |

White House Physician
Offers Some Rules
For Housewives
WASHINGTON UP — Dr. Janet
Travell, the White House physi
cian who has been treating Presi
dent Kennedy’s ailing back, yes
terday offered some rules for
housewives:
1. Scramble your work. Don’t
spend all of one day cleaning, an
other day doing laundry, and a
third ironing. That way you use
some muscles too much, others
not enough.
2. Cultivate a rhythmic pattern.
Don’t hurry, don’t jerk the move
ments. Just do your housework as
if you were doing a modern dance.
Hurrying wears out the muscles.
3. Take short rests at frequent
intervals.
4. Don’t tolerate bad physical
and mechanical arrangements in
your home. Don’t tolerate chairs
that are uncomfortable, sinks that
are too low.
5. Counter-act housework with
an entirely different kind of
muscle movement, a variety of ex
ercises.
6. It isn’t housework that you’re
doing it’s homemaking. The de
tails of what you do are less im
portant than the atmosphere in
your home. Don’t kill yourself
on housework.
“My impression,” Dr. Travell
said, “is the more efficient you
try to be, the worse you come
out.”
She spoke at a YWCA luncheon.
She didn’t mention Kennedy.
SOUNDS FISHY
TOKYO IP — The Japanese
fishery agency is trying to record
