Regarding the party for the press Dec. 19: Invitations have
gone out to press and their spouses or dates. There have
been some questions as to whether or not this party includes
children. Because of the space problems, it does not. But
members of the press who would like their families to see the
White House decorations may bring them for a tour Saturday,
Dec. 21 from 1: 30 - 3 p. m. Just bring your family to the
East Gate and show your White House press pass. If you
are on the access list but do not have a pass, call Sheila
Weidenfeld 1 s office (2164) for clearance.
