ALT Page of the transcript of the November 9, 1962 press briefing with the following question and answer highlighted: Q: On matters closer to home, is it true that the White House has been playing a recording of a wail of a distressed starling on the lawn out here and has it been successful in its purpose? Mr. Salinger: The White House has had a problem for some time with starlings who have created nuisances in front of the White House. And so, I think, for the last two days they have been playing a record of a distressed starling in an attempt to discourage other starlings from appearing on the premises.
