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.
