(AECOM) of Arlington County, Virginia conducted a cultural resources survey of Lee Highway (US Route 29), in Arlington County, between January 2019 and February 2020. The Lee Highway Cultural Resources Survey is a component of the larger “Plan Lee Highway” project, a long-range plan and comprehensive vision for the Lee Highway corridor conducted by AECOM for the CPHD. The Lee Highway Cultural Resources Survey consisted of the following tasks: 1) Meetings; 2) Background Research; 3) Field Investigation; and 4) Report of Findings. The survey was conducted by AECOM’s Secretary of the Interior (SOI)-qualified architectural historians, who attended numerous in- person and telephone meetings with CPHD staff as well as three public meetings, and submitted weekly progress reports to the CPHD during the field work phase. Working with both CPHD staff and the general public, AECOM developed a list of 120 resources (buildings, structures, objects, and sites) within the Plan Lee Highway study area to be researched, surveyed, and documented either at the reconnaissance level (105) or in-depth level (15).

SOUTHERN STRATEGIES The 1970 Election for the United States Senate in Virginia by James R. Sweeney* While feminists marched in protest outside the Statler Hilton on the evening of 14 March 1970, President Richard M. Nixon, Vice-President Spiro T. Agnew, and Virginia's senior senator, Harry F. Byrd, Jr., attended the men-only annual banquet of the exclusive Gridiron Club, a group of fifty of Washington's most prominent male newspaper correspondents. The 500 guests enjoyed an evening of off-the-record speeches, satirical musical skits, and quite unexpected piano duets by Nixon and Agnew that "stole the show." As he was leaving, the president stopped at Senator Byrd's table and said, "Harry, I think it's about time for us to discuss Okinawa." Those who overheard assumed that Nixon was referring to the administration's plan to give the island of Okinawa back to Japan, a proposal that Byrd opposed.
