Don’t Believe All You Read
Story in the Daily News Record, Harrisonburg, Virginia. January, 1961
As far as I know, there were no scouts who
ushered the president to the reviewing stand. I
think the confusion came from the statement that I “would be an usher at the White House”, which was
correct.

Car with President Eisenhower and President-elect Kennedy
*
AKC Ten Feet from Two Presidents
For breakfast, JFK met Eisenhower at the White House. Then, with their
wives, took a single car to the Capitol. For several
minutes the car parked just in front of me. The only
thing preventing me from tapping on the window and saying “Hi” was my own
reluctance.

This was my area: seating for the members of the Democratic National Committee.
Notice about 30% turnout thanks to the weather.

Addendum: The parade lasted long past dark. I was asked if I wanted tousher at an Inaugural Ball but I was exhausted and caught the bus for home.
