There used\nto be a putting green too but the last\nadministration removed it.\nThe earlier White House pool was con-\nverted by the Nixon administration into\nenlarged press quarters. It was given in\n1933 to President Franklin D. Roosevelt,\nwho needed the daily swim to exercise\nhis polio-shrunken legs.\nForty-four newspapers in New York\nstate, where Roosevelt had been gover-\nnor, conducted the fund drive, spear-\nheaded by the New York Daily News\n(which later came to be one of FDR's\nharshest critics).\nTHE 15X50-FOOT indoor pool, located\nin former storage space in the portico\nthat connects the West Wing with the\nexecutive mansion, cost $22,316 in 1933.\nRoosevelt and his' large family and\ntheir children used the pool daily. The\nEisenhower grandchildren used it a lot,\nas did President Truman and his daugh-\nter, Margaret. So did Presidents Kenne-\ndy and Johnson and their families. John-\nson also shocked sensitive souls by\nconducting affairs of state there while\nswimming naked.\nFord's new 22x55-foot heated outdoor\npool, constructed on the South Grounds\nbehind the President's Oval Office, is\ncosting an estimated $63,314.\nThere has been no final decision on\nwhat will be done with the balance of the\n$118,495 contributed by the general pub-\nlic, but part of it almost certainly will be\nused to build a poolside bath house of\nsome sort. At present, the President has\nto change into his swimming trunks in his\noffice, or go back to the family quarters\nin the mansion to change.\nALL OF THE FORDS loved their back-\nyard swimming pool when they lived in\nAlexandria, and the new pool is expected\nto be used extensively by all of them -\nprobably twice a day by the President.\nThere has been some discussion by\nWhite House staff members about wheth-\ner they will ever be allowed to use the\npool. The original announcement said it\nwas for \"the President and his guests,\"\nand there has been no further definition\nof the word \"guests.\" The pool is unlikely\nSee WHITE HOUSE, Page\n3\n-United Press Internationa\nPresident Ford with son\nembarrassment swims 1\nfirst official lap in the n\n22-by-55-foot White Hou\npool before an audience\nsome 70 reporters a\nphotographers.
