Guest of honor was spry, 69-year-old, Mrs. Flora MacLeod, 28th chieftain of the MacLeod clan, who had come all the way from Scotland's Isle of Skye for the doings. Dressed in tribal tartan, the MacLeod of MacLeods watched the clansmen in sword dances, Highland flings. With another kilted chieftain, Premier Angus L. Macdonald, she listened to speeches in Gaelic and stamped time to shrill renditions (including Mrs. MacLeod's March, written especially for the occasion) by the Cape Breton Highlander's Pipe Band. Said she: "It is wonderful to be in a place...
What they saw, at the second annual exhibit of American Indian painting, were mostly bright, flat watercolors of tribal life and lore, like the prizewinning Dakota Duck Hunt by a Dakota Sioux named Oscar Howe. Jemez Indian José Rey Toledo entered a thoroughly detailed illustration of the sacred Zuñi Shalako dance, but Ma-Pe-Wi, a Zia Pueblo, forbidden by his tribe to paint ceremonials, contented himself with a cocktail-bar rendering of a buffalo hunt...
...communication with so many people, he is the object of a large and enthusiastic response in kind.

Priority item on their program: to scuttle the Russian oil concession. When the election finally ended, Gavam could submit the Russian oil agreement with certain knowledge that it would be strongly opposed-which will suit him fine. He could sit back, finger his jade beads and chuckle-unless the neighbors across his northern border turned the heat on again...
...prospect was unnerving, even for a seasoned cultivator of U.S. tribal manners like the State Department's Protocol Division. In March, Mexico had nearly blown Harry Truman's hat off with a welcome heard round the hemisphere. This week, Mexican President Miguel Aleman was due north on a return call. To keep U.S. face, Washington's plain citizens would have to step out of character and match, or better, the Mexican enthusiasm. The Protocol Division's patient, able Stanley Woodward was worried. He called on the Army, Navy, Marines, school officials, the Washington Board of Trade...
