When President Coolidge "chose," he startled his secretary and his doorman. He startled Main Street, Rapid City, and Wall Street, Manhattan. It is not unthinkable that he even startled himself, but certainly he startled no one more than his political impresario, William Morgan Butler, Chairman of the National Republican Committee, who, just when the laconic lightning struck, was on a jotting jaunt in the Northwest, a tour of inspection to see what properties would be necessary for the Prosperities of 1928, starring Calvin Coolidge...

His first great national, non-sporting events were the Demo-cratic and Republican Conventions of 1924; his most famed, the Lindbergh receptions this summer. At the Radio World Fair in 1925, he won a solid gold cup (in the form of a microphone) as most popular announcer in the U. S., receiving 189,470 votes out of 1,161,659. He receives a huge "fan" mail, including marriage proposals. He is married to Josephine Garrett, concert and church soprano...
