Jacob Javits

...

there was something called the Jacob Javits G&T Children and Youth Education Act-

Mm-hmm

... that was passed.

Javits of the Javits Center, I might add.

Yes, Javits, he was a...

Jacob Javits was a co- I, senator, I believe.

I-

She writes about attending a party thrown by stage director Joshua Logan.

The guest list includes Truman Capote, Alfred Vanderbilt, Billy Rose, the wife of Senator Jacob Javits, and the former president of Mexico.

And Kilgallen writes that as she moved from group to group at this party, there wasn't a single person who didn't want to talk about the assassination, about Jackie Kennedy's fortitude, about the killing of Oswald, and about the mysterious figure who shot him, Jack Ruby.

She says that you'd think that a crowd of sophisticates and celebrities might be tired of the topic by now, but they weren't.

In, in my old ...

When we were growing up, when we were growing up, when Nelson Rockefeller was the governor of New York, Louis Lefkowitz was the attorney general, uh, Jacob Javits was the senator.

All three of them Republican.

The mayor, the senator, the governor, all Republican, and yet they were liberals and, and conservatives within the group.

We will not be defeated, and we will never surrender our friends to communist aggression.

In Washington tonight, this reaction to President Nixon's speech from Senator Jacob Javits.

The president's position remains the same because he has not given us the word on a residual or insurance force and implies a continuing commitment to protect the survival of the government of South Vietnam.

Field reports reaching Saigon say the North Vietnamese Thursday morning began attacks on three sides of Quang Tri City up near the DMZ.

But I was I was like concerned to be one of the top three, at least of the people for a senatorial appointment to the Air Force Academy.

So I went down and met with Jacob Javits, our Republican senator in New York.

And when he asked me why I wanted to go to the Air Force Academy, I told him that I wanted to be an astronaut.

And he said, oh, yes, all young boys want to be an astronaut now.

You know, we haven't delegated to them that authority to do that if they deem it necessary to have any consent on our part.

So that would be probably not the normal kind of encounter that they would have with other people if they had an encounter with me.

It may be something more like my meeting with Jacob Javits.

Yeah.

But if you mean, if you think people like Huey Long, let alone his son Russell, were conservatives- Or Herman Tallmadge, my God, they would spend money on agriculture and they would spend money on social programs.

Uh, they would outdo, they would outdo Jack Javits-

Yeah

... on those kind of things.

So what changed?

Well, when I was being interviewed by Jacob Javits, Senator Javits asked me why I wanted to be an astronaut.

And I said, well, I want to be an astronaut because this is an extraordinary time in our whole human history.

We're getting set to go out to the stars.
