...Eisenhower posed beforehand with Generals Douglas MacArthur, Omar Bradley and Lucius Clay. The President enjoyed himself hugely, beamingly referred to MacArthur as "my chief," received a gold medal for "a lifetime of devotion to American intercollegiate football," rocked so with laughter at the khaki, G.I. jokes of Hoosier Comedian Herb Shriner that a newsman muttered: "I didn't think the Republicans were so alarmed over the Indiana vote."
