Eisenhower Greets
‘Typical Newsboy’
At White House
WASHINGTON, WV—President
Eisenhower Saturday greeted the
nation’s “typical newsboy,” 14
year-old Andy Williams of Ames,
Iowa, and gave him a packet full
of small gifts, including two pen
cils lettered in gold with “Square
Deal Candidate, Dwight D. Eisen
hower.”
Eisenhower and young Wil
liams, a delivery boy on the Ames
Tribune, met at the White House
for what the newsboy called a
“friendly chat—chewin’ the fat.”
Andy’s call was arranged in
connection with National News
paperboys’ Day.
The President also gave the boy
a silver dollar dated 18t»0, the
year of Eisenhower’s birth: two
Ike buttons, and a steel ruler.
Williams told the President he
wants to become a surveyor.
Asked if Eisenhower wanted to
know whether he was a Republi
can, Andy said:
“It was pretty evident I was. I
was up there rooting for him two
weeks ago on his visit to Iowa.”
Andy was chosen by the Na
tional ’Circulation Managers Assn,
and the Inland Daily Press Assn,
as being typical of the nation’s
600,000 newsboys.
Andy won the honor for his
work for the Ames newspaper and
for collecting donations from his
customers for the Crusade for
Freedom, which supports Radio
Free Europe.
In a statement issued Friday
night, Eisenhower hailed the
newsboys for their “constant will
ingness to help in many commu
nity activities thruout the year.”
“The strength of our American
community life depends upon the
_ voluntary services of thousands
of citizens like you,” Eisenhower
told the newspaperboys.
Infant Recovering
From Rattlesnake Bite
WINTERHAVEN. Florida, uT>—
When a mother rushed her snake
bitten infant to the hospital she
had the presence of mind enough
to take along the snake to be sure
the child got the right treatment.
The child, Stevie L. Paulk, 13
months old, is recovering from
the bite on his finger, inflicted
while he was playing in his back
yard. The ground rattlesnake did
not fare so well. Mrfc. S. R. Paulk
stamped it to death before picking
it up.
