President Ford falters twice in Salzburg on European trip
President Ford, hindered by knee trouble, fell twice on stairs in Salzburg. He slipped on the ramp in rain first, then stumbled again with Egyptian Prime Minister Anwar Sadat supporting him. White House called the second fall a slight misstep while aides and observers noted the lasting arm support. Prior to departure in Madrid the Fords attended Mass at Salesas Reales church but received no communion.
