ir 'Fabulous' Is the Word
The new Broadmoor International keeps few, if any, records, including a
Center is a fabulous work of architec- list of the names of its employes.
The columnist was well-prepared
for his address. He had his facts at.
hand and he answered all questions'
without hesitation. When asked why
he did not consider France a "good"
ally to this country, Pearson said it is
because De Gaulle is an extremely
difficult man to get along with. "FDR'
and Harry Truman found that out, Ei-
senhower found it out and now Presi-
dent Kennedy is finding it out," Pear-
son declared. Pearson spoke in a re-
laxed, confident manner. His remarks
were frank and, open;, he did not beat
around the bush and hold back any-
thing 'which might offend those pres-
ent. He writes in the same manner,'
although his written prose is somewhat
more biting than his spoken words. At
any rate, the 800-odd men who camp to
hear him heard what they had expect-
ed; the facts about the world situation.'
We could not talk of the Winter
Night Club meeting Tuesday night
without mentioning the excellent serv-
ice the more than 800 diners received.
Employes of the Broadmoor Interna-
tional Center who served the fine din:
ner are to be commended for their '
speed and efficienCy. Despite the large '
crowd, all of the diners werefed gnd,
most of the dishes and silver cleared
off the tables during one hour. These
courteous men and women seldom re-
ceive the credit due them and it was
the consensus of the club members
and their guests that they are due
much after Tuesday night's "perform-
ance." Not to be forgotten are the
chefs, who served up a meal fit for a
king and his court, cons is tin g of
shrimp "Louie," relishes, roast prime
ribs of Beef au Jus, parsley potato, I
string beans, lettuce salad, Broadmoor
dressing, Neopolitan ice cream, cakes '
and coffee.

appointment's make it the show place.
of the Pikes Peak Region, one which
should attract many thousands of. new
visitors to the area each year. And,
although the center is not yet com-
pleted, its usefulness .as a meeting
place for large groups such, as attended
the Winter Night Club Tuesday night,
is beyond Compare in this part of the
country. There may be larger meeting
places in the United States, but it is
doubtful that you will find one:snore
attractive.

Press columnist alwr AREir - Like
most newspapermen, s much
' more forceful in his writing than in
speaking, and many of the 4joints he
brought out in his address were sum-
marized from the text of his columns.
However, his discussion of world prob-
lems and situations was loaded with
dynamite and punctuated with facts.
Much of the time Pearson dwelled
upon the subject of his current series
of columns which appear daily on edi-
torial page of The Free Press and in
other newspapers throughout the
country, including The Denver Post.

Pearson pointed out, as he has many
times in his column, that the invasion
failure and the role which t h e CIA
played in it, has caused much embar-
rassment to the United States. He also
noted that the CIA, unlike other U: S.
Government agencies, does not have to
keep a record of "checks and bal-
ances." In fact; Pearson said, the CIA
