Unknown Joe Lucas 27/Dec/1963 Reporter: What are the major crisis facing our country today? Phyllis: (Fumbles in purse) Brings forth a crumpled piece of paper) Two cubes of butter and a carton of milk. Wrong list. Oh, well you can't win em all. I don't think it is supply ships from the Soviet Union, Cuban Missile Bases but acid indigestion, halitosis, nagging, head aches and athletes foot. Reporter: What happens in the average day of a First Lady? Phyllis: Today I picked up an honorary degree from the Betsey Ross Flag Making School. I addressed the Ladies Auxiliary of the Wives of Pakistinian Ambassadors. There was just her and me. But I did the talking. I addressed her! I opened the season for the N.Y. City Ballet by throwing out the first slipper. I crowned the Queen of Fire Island. Went to a supermarket opening -- then an official cocktail party at the Peruvian Embassy -- Had a few drinky poos. Picked up on the latest tell tale tittle tattle. Reporter: You have been criticized for giving important positions in Government to unqualified people, is that true? Phyllis: You mean like making Gary Grant, Secretary of State? Because he is such a doll. Reporter: Yes, well it did seem an odd choice. Phyllis: If he can't cut it, I'll put in somebody else. Maybe John Wayne. Reporter: On the construction of fallout shelters. Phyllis: I'm all for it. Because they have a two-fold purpose. Firstly it offers protection against the big pop and secondly and I think far more important, it give you a place to hide when relatives drop in unexpectedly.
