Banks Enright 1 Mary Van Rensselaer Thayer (Little, Brown and $7.95, 362 pp.) Despite some rather tedious room by room descriptions of drab decor and of converting the White House establishment to a more glamorous status, the book as a whole presents interesting highlights of White House life. The Kennedy mystique comes through here in all its grace, wit, exuberance, cosmopolitan aura and savoir faire. Mary Van Rensselaer Thayer, lifelong friend of Jacqueline Kennedy's family, has prepared "The White House Years" with the full cooperation of Mrs. Kennedy, relying on the former First Lady's personal recollections and private memoranda. As Mrs.

Thayer says, "The young First Lady was sincerely averse to personal publicity. She firmly believed the spotlight should be focused on her husband alone." I ante (Cowles, Interest in Andre Malraux I must be wide in America to judge by the numerous books I being published here in praise i of this confidant of de Gaulle, formidable literary figure and I conversationalist of such en- cyclopedic brillance that An-t dre Gide once confessed he could not keep up with him. I There are many, it would I seem, who believe Malraux to 1 be the greatest living Euro-I pean, a crusader and fighter, more actively concerned than any other Frenchman of his a generation with mankind and I the human condition the I politics, hopes, despairs, revo-I lutions and wars of these 1 times. In the light of the couple of hundred books and theses al- 1 ready devoted to his exploits and ideas by writers of five i continents, it is clear that I Malraux is the only contem- I porary writer, with the excep- 1 tion of Ernest Hemingway, 1 who has a genuine legend.

of Arizona on proper dress for the Inaugural, the president pro tempore of the Senate, Hayden, replied, "Ed, tell that young fella he should wear a cutaway coat and silk hat. I want him to come down looking like a President." Jacqueline Kennedy's costume also, designed by Oleg Cassini for the occasion, was a memorable standout for its simplicity and elegance. Mrs. Thayer relates in interesting detail the important story of the most acclaimed of all the Kennedy era state guests, the "Mona Lisa." Leonardo da Vinci's 15th Century portrait "La Gioconda," the most famous painting in the western world, according to Mrs. Thayer, came from the Louvre as the personal guest of President Kennedy through the efforts of Edward Folliard, Washington Post political reporter, and the graciousness of Andre Malraux, France's Minister of Culture.

The Washington Post flew Folliard to Paris to accompany the distinguished Lady on her voyage across the Atlantic. John Walker, the director of the National Gallery of Art met her in New York, and in an air conditioned van, escorted by succeeding squads of state troopers, they crossed New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland to the District of Columbia, "with sirens screaming, through red lights and toll booths without slackening speed." "Never had a queen or even an empress been so royally greeted," commented the ecstatic Eddie Folliard. ANOTHER IMPORTANT PHASE of the activity related by Mrs. Thayer is that of the White House Library, opened by Jacqueline Kennedy. James T.

Babb, Librarian of Yale, was in charge of the Library Committee respon-ble for acquiring suitable books. The committee assembled an impressive 2,700 volumes of American authors of every era, from George Washington to James Thurber. And on through a galaxy of imaginative Kennedy entertainments the book continues: Pablo Cassals playing his cello after dinner; a "cultural soiree" for Andre Malraux; and other memorable occasions with painter Andrew Wyeth, poet Robert Lowell, playwrights Arthur Miller, S. N. Behrman, and Tennessee Williams; and the dizziest evening to which all Nobel Prize winners and their wives were invited; and carat for carat the most glittering state dinner for the Shah of Iran and his beautiful young empress.

Mary Van Rensselaer Thayer has been a columnist for the Hearst publications, the Washington Post and other national newspapers. After working for the U. S. government in the Amazon Valley, Mrs. Thayer served as a war correstpondent in the Balkans (she was the only accredited woman correspondent in Eastern Europe); today her special interests are the Middle East and the Himalayan kingdoms of Sikkim and Bhutan.

Mrs. Thayer now lives in Washington, where she is bureau chief of Magnum Photos. i 4 1 i in i iiii-ywiiiii i MmmMMiMm9M HUNTERS BOOKS The writer was an English born American author who wrote popular romances and books for children.

Nemesis has never, as a matter of fact, been far behind the hazardous events of this man obsessed with death, anger, action. His father committed suicide, his brothers were killed by the Nazis, his sons died in an auto accident, the poetess Louise de Vilmo-rim his last love and, perhaps, the one woman in Malraux's life who was a true match for him in intellect, wit, vigor and charm was accidentally crushed under the wheels of a train. Is it any wonder that Malraux's writings reflect a preoccupation with man's relationship to death and his reaction in face of destiny? "Malraux" by Pierre Gal-ante, editor of "Paris-Match" since 1056, and author in his own right on political subjects, has the distinction of being capable of satisfying not only the most enthusiastic of Malraux's admirers but of interesting as well those readers who feel that just because Malraux wrote one well-known novel, the rest of his writings and his personal life Indeed, the Frenchman's lifelong odyssey, beginning with the restless Parisan intellectual of 22 years who "invaded" Cambodian temples in search of archaeological treasures and stood trial for thievery, who then took part in early revolutionary movements in China, fought as a pilot in the Spanish Civil War, and as an underground saboteur during the Nazi occupation of France, who subsequently wore the formal frock coat of minister under two Gaullist regimes, and whose semi-autobiographical novels and books on art history have been published to literary acclaim, all these exploits make a This portrait of Jackie Kennedy Onassis, by artist Aaron Shikler, appears in the March issue of McCalls. However, demands for personal interviews, requests to photograph the children; for TV appearances, for speeches, poured in at a frantic pace.

Since she had to have some one to handle press relations, she selected 23-year-old Pamela Turnure. The rules Jacqueline Kennedy set down for "Pam" were full of common sense. She realized that people have a tendency to exaggerate and one tiny thing said goes from one person to another and ends up horribly in some gossip column. "Be discreet," was the watchword. THE PRESIDENT AND JACQUELINE had the valuable asset of being willing to loam from those who had been down the road before them.

For instance, at the outset Mrs. Kennedy called on Mrs. Woodrow Wilson who became her affectionate admirer, and despite her advanced HOLIDAY PLEASURE BONUS For Men and Women Married or Single for fascinating story-telling.

During the past 10 years or so, publishers in Formosa have reprinted thousands of American and European books without permission and sold them for a fraction of the cost of authorized editions. Formosa, the exile home of the Nationalist Chinese, has gotten away with this because China is not a member of the Universal Copyright Convention, which protects copyrights on an international b'a- 'r sis. well as the public performances of a restless artist, whose face has become ravaged by tics and who holds a cigarette perpetually in hand.

(Houghton Mifflin 174 pp. $4.95.) The amount of literature that has emerged from the conflict in Southeast Asia could be placed upon a very small shelf.

Of those publications which have had any impact in the book peddlers haunts, hardly anything need be said. With the appearance of "The Weary Falcon," a small ripple may occur. This book is a pretty fair description of the American male at war in Viet Nam. It consists of five short stories put together which give insight into such diverse occupations as a four-tour chopper pilot and a first patrol grunt officer. You will also meet a black Marine sergeant, a pot-smoking medic and the ever present hard bitten veteran officer of the old school.

All of these gentlemen are fetch-ingly obscene, seemingly Impervious to pain and manfully staunch about revealing any weaknesses. Mayer's style is putting it down just as It Is in a manner of speaking with today's generation.

"No. They're not definite enough for one lo say they're awful." Henry paused. "They simply float they always did.

I never know, when I'm with them, why, at one moment, they're happy, why, a minute later, they're depressed."
