He has been a Nixon Intimate since they studied law together at Duke University In toe late half-eate- 1330s. I While his friend scaled toe political heights, Rhyne climbed to toe top in toe legal world. His credentials are impeccable: president of the American Bar Association; chairman of a special A3A committee on world peace through the rule of law; creator of the ABAs Law Day, conceived as Americas answer to toe communist May Day. All these achievements, say fellow attorneys, have been parleyed Into a booming law practice. At toe tame time, Rhyne has kept his political ties Intact with his former schoolmate. In 1968, he headed Citizens for Nixon. ' The success of this effort was such that; among Nixon insiders, speculation was high that Rhyne would be named to the Supreme Court In toe aftermath of ' system. That change has brought another: the small child can no longer be the untrammeled little houieguest that he was in former times. '.e space is no longer there; nor is the womanpower. The aunts and grandmothers who waited on the children are no longer on the 6cene. Historically, the Japanese child was an almost totally free spirit until he reached school age. He screamed when he wanted, irtorrupted when he wanted and generally got what he wanted, especially if he cried. Discip-m- e was never applied until school years.

They havj been getting a shot each month for six months and are to get them for another six months. I know this has something to do with white blood cells. Could this mean that they have somo kind of leukemia? Mrs. J.K. Answer: No, It doesnt mean anything at all. Blood contains a variety of protein particles called globulins, and toe ones known as gamma globulin have toe characteristic of developing toe ability to combat harmful viruses which get into the body. like that As one example, vaccines work by Inciting these particles to fight off whatever type of germ to used to make the vaccine. For another, and even commoner example, when you get a disease which is caused by germs, the gamma globulin particles build up toeir ability to combat the germ in question. That is why, after having certain diseases, you acquire an Immunity. In some Individuals there to a deficiency or even absence of these protective substances, and the result to one Illness after another. This to not common, but to far from unknown. The deficiency may be an ''inherited characteristic, or may not. In one type there to a decrease in toe number of one of the verities of white blood cells known as lymphocytes.

Jackie asked me to call New York and have Tom Walsh come to the White House In strictest confidence. I was to show him toe sword and find out whether toe diamonds could be taken out and glass gems be substituted in their place. Jackie told roe to explain to "Tom Walsh that the President says okay, and that when Walsh came to Washington, he was to take toe sword to a discount jew- - it else. The President now entered her jewelry saga. Jackie had decided she didnt like the emerald engagement ring he had given her, and he let her go ahead to see what toe jewelers could do to make it more suitable to her taste. Early in 1962, this was one of Jackies the problem of rebig projects designing her ring. She asked Van Cleef A Arpels in New York to do three wax models. One days diary entry, in particular, tells toe story: ) receipt of JBK Engagement Ring, into a Wax Model of her choice, Jackie asked for my opinion before making a definite decision.

I think youd be Oh, no Jackte making a big mistake to change your ring this way, I told her. To me. It looks much too bulky and takes away from the whole beauty of the ring. Her disappointment could not have been more obvious, Oh, she stammered in disgust, youre jus like Jack. She returned the ring, and wax models continued to go back and forth. In the end, Jackie finally gave up. She seemed to realize, as had the President and 1, that her lovely ring required no further adornments, after all!
