President Truman often took to the Williamsburg for vacations and week ends. However, President Eisenhower leans more to fishing and golf for relaxation. The first word was that the Williamsburg’s days as a presiden- tial yacht were ended. Now, how- ever, people around Eisenhower say he is being reminded of how jsuccessful were his top-level con- ferences aboard the cruiser Helena coming back from Korea last De- cember. Talks aboard the Williamsburg, they say, might work just as well. The Williamsburg is now in the Norfolk Navy Yard pending a de- cision. [Exchange Club Names Officers J. M.
