The reason, of course, President Johnson's scheduled

Government ltas already ordered schools closed "for th•

Hello

Colorado.
We
are all anxious to
see the French
star in
action,
Jean Claude Killy, who
1e
being called the
number one ski
racer
of all
time.
Maybe he is, but from
the
time of f:riedl Pfeifer, Dick Durrance, Tony Matt, Emile
Allale,
Stein Eriksen, zeno Collo, on down to Toni Saller,
Buddy Werner and others, there have been many greats, and we
want
to see if
wild
man Killy
ie
really any better.
out
here at
Aepen
I have been skling
with Friedl
Pfeifer
and Fred Iselin;
with
Alf
Engen at Alta, and other
greats
or
the
ski
world -- Otto Lang, Gretchen Fraser, and
Jack Simplot,
"Mr.
Idaho". There's an interesting thing about

but
when
you
are

no

really
cares

are. It's the one place
where you
can
get

Kennedy, and no one paid
any attention. Oh, if you happen to be in the
news
a
t
the
moment -- the Manchester incident recently is a case in point
newsmen may try to follow you. But all you have to do is
be nice to them for a moment, give them a polite wave, and
take off down the mountain. This even happened to me once
in the mountains back of Vancouver, British Columbia. Local
gentlemen of the press scaled a snowy mountain to interview
me. But they nearly froze, and 1.t was over in a hurry.
Even the Lone Eagle, Colonel Lindbergh, realized
how easy it was to avoid people, the press and so, as
aacier,
and often
came
here to Colorado, to Aspen, skiing incognlto,
with
no one giving a second look.
so,
i

you want to get
away
from it all, and have
