CuW President to celebrate birthday in hometown United Press International WASHINGTON — Presi dent Reagan prepared Sunday to make a sentimental journey to his hometown of Dixon, Ill., Monday where he will celebrate his 73rd birthday, basking in the folksy Midwestern glow of his youth. The president spent the weekend at Camp David, Md., resting from his first full week of outlining his campaign themes as an announced candidate for re-election. Although he is the oldest man to serve in the presidency, his political strategists say age is no longer a factor in Reagan’s poli tical picture. He is, in fact, often the first to joke about his age, frequently in a self-deprecating manner. Asked if he thought his age is a potential political problem, he said in a Newsweek magazine in terview: “I think somebody tried to make it one four years ago and it didn’t work. And I’ve never heard it mentioned most of the time now they don’t even ask ab out it in the polls. And I’ve tried to start a rumor that I’m really not that old, that they mixed up the babies at the hospital.” Dr. Daniel Ruge, the White House physician, has pro nounced him fit, although he has not has a medical checkup for a couple of years. Despite the hearing aid he now wears, Reagan has a vigor ous, energetic image as he embarks on the long and arduous campaign leading up to the November election. Today, he travels to Dixon for a parade through town and a visit to the restored home of his youth; then on to Eureka Col lege, his alma mater in Illinois, where he will speak on the changes time has wrought in the economy since his depression- era boyhood. Accompanied by his wife, Nancy, he will spend the night in Las Vegas, Nev., appearing Tuesday before a national asso ciation of high school principals and speaking, at a GOP fund raising luncheon before leaving for a five-day stay at his moun- taintop ranch near Santa Bar bara, Calif. He leaves behind a mix of problems, including the new political turmoil in Lebanon and controversy over the $180 bil lion deficit that has caused a split among his economic advisers.
