Prophet Mahomet, has ruled his North African

fighting a three-year war in the Sahara while
developing its rich phosphate resources,
Morocco is pressing ahead with steady develop-
ment.

hem Steel Corp., and of the influential Ameri-
F oy can Iron and Steel Institute, will address an
ELECTION DAY IS NEXT TUESDAY, and on Thurs., Nov. 9, almost before the dust has
settled, an all-star panel of political commentators will tell an NPC Luncheon audience

Star's Jack Germond, syndicated columnist Bob Novak, and the Los Angeles Times'
resident pundit, Bob Shogan.
WHITE HOUSE PLANS FOR THE FUTURE on the home front will be discussed by Stuart
Eizenstat, Assistant to the President for Domestic Affairs, at an NPC Luncheon on
Tues., Nov. 14, Eizenstat, a long-time friend of President Carter from Georgia, is
the President's closest adviser on domestic policy matters. This will be Eizenstat's
first appearance at the National Press Club.
PRESIDENT'S REPORT
As you may know from news accounts, we lost our bid to build a new National
Press Building and convention hotel on our block, The Pennsylvania avenue
Development Corporation (PADC) selected Quadrangle-Marriott as the developer.
It was a tremendous disappointment for the Board of Directors of the National
Press Building Corporation and for John Portman and his associates, who had
worked long and hard to make the new complex a reality. We are still convinced
that, on the merits, we had far and away the best and most exciting proposal to
kick off the redevelopment of Pennsylvania Avenue.
We were not privy to the decision, so do not know for certain what the con-
siderations were. The National Theatre certainly was a factor, in spite of the
fact that the PADC itself had made no provision or requirement for the theatre.

PRESIDENT'S REPORT (Continued from Page 1)
But our dream of a new Press Building is still alive. The Building :Board
met on Friday, October 27, to discuss the alternatives open to us. These in-
include: A new Press Building on a nearby site with Portman or another part-
ner; renovation of our existing building, or some other arrangement., Quad-
rangle-Marriott has expressed interest in including us in its project.
No decisions have been made. None will be made without the approval of the
National Press Club membership. As you may recall, the membership auth-
orized only the joint venture with Portman. Anything else will have to be
brought before a full membership meeting.
Our relationship with John Portman operated on a basis of mutual honesty and
integrity, with little more than a handshake to cement it. He notified the Build-
ing Board that we no longer have any obligation to him. But the Board. was
unanimous in its conviction that we ought to try to continue to work with him,
if we can.
--Frank A. Aukofer, President

Central Intelligence Agency Director Admiral Stansfield Turner (at Left in above Left
photo) Leaked no secrets at pre-luncheon reception with Lawson P. "Red" Ramage, retired
Commander of the U.S. First Fleet and World War II Congressional Medal of Honor winner,
and NPC member Arthur Curtis. Television legend Dave Garroway (at Left in above right
photo) greets music Legend Benny Goodman at National Press Foundation benefit. Looking
on are NPF president Robert Alden (second from Left) and John Byrne, president, chairman,
and chief executive officer of GEICO, which sponsored the benefit concert to aid the NPF.
"YOUR UNFETTERED RIGHT TO PRINT AND DISCLOSE is now being challenged, just
as our unfettered right to classify was, " CIA Director Admiral Stansfield Turner told
newspeople in the audience at an NPC Luncheon on Oct. 25. Alluding to the recent court
decisions regarding the Farber and Stanford Daily cases on media withholding of con-
fidential information, Turner said: "Welcome to the club...we're glad to share the
problem. " He noted that the CIA must notify eight Committees of Congress of any co-
vert ope rations, and that this openness has made Allied intelligence services "very
nervous about whether we can keep secrets. " While Turner has opened a CIA. public
information office since taking over in March, 1977, and said that "too much material
is classified today, " he added, "I sincerely hope I'm going to make it much more diffi-
cult for you to get our secrets." On media reports of claims by "whistle-blowers,"
Turner said reporters "must judge their reliability and motives. There is a potential for
abuse of the media and the public in 'leaks' and 'preliminary disclosures' to the press."
BENNY GOODMAN, THE KING OF SWING, brought his famous clarinet and jazz sextet
to NPC Oct. 28 for a gala concert benefitting the National Press Foundation and made
possible by the Government Employees Insurance Company. Nearly 250 jazz buffs
tapped their toes and swayed nostalgically to Benny's timeless melodies, by his solo
clarinet and by the six experts who accompanied him. After a delicious dinner and
dancing, first to the sextet and later to the Van Perry Combo, GEICO topped off its
generous contribution by presenting each partygoer with a complimentary two-record
album celebrating Benny's recent 40th anniversary concert at Carnegie Hall.
"AN EVENING WITH THE BILL BLAIRS" will honor long-time NPC supporter Bill and
his wife Helen on Mon., Nov. 6, as they prepare to move to Florida. Bill, retired
from the New York Times Washington bureau, is currently secretary of the National
Press Foundation, and served as Club president in 1965. This chance to bid the Blairs
a fond farewell will run from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.
