The Presidency: Home Notes

>The Kennedy family plane, a twin-engined Convair 240, is up for sale at $375,000. The President used the plane during his 1960 campaign but no longer needs it, since he has a special 707 jet and numerous helicopters at his disposal.

> Rather than renew the lease on their Virginia estate Glen Ora, the President and his wife will let it go in January and perhaps look around the countryside for a suitable site on which to build a home. J.F.K. never particularly liked Glen Ora anyway, and Jacqueline used it chiefly as a home base for rides to the hounds.

> Caroline Kennedy and her kindergarten classmates have been declared personae non gratae during future official White House welcoming ceremonies. Reason: last week, when the President greeted visiting Algerian Premier Ahmed ben Bella on the White House south lawn with a solemn military review and a 21-gun salute, Caroline and her playmates watched from a third-floor window, began mimicking the military commands with cries of “Attention!” “Shoulder arms!” and “Boom! Boom!”

>The President’s father, still recovering from his stroke, arrived at the White House for a visit. On leaving, he will report back to the New York University Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation for more therapy.
