White House Easter Egg Roll on a Chilly Day
Frances Lewine Astington reports the White House Easter Egg Roll occurred on a sunny yet cool Easter Monday. A tall white rabbit led the festivities with clowns, magicians, marionettes, and a plastic egg rolling contest. Attendance was 10,230, below last year's 18,300, but officials called it a good figure for the chill. Gerald Ford and family were in Palm Springs, and Mrs. Ford shared a history of the event.
