There is an unwritten agreement that Reagan is not photographed at unguarded moments, although a picture of him wearing sweat pants and standing in a doorway was transmitted by U.P.I, this week, despite White House requests that it be withheld. Vice President George Bush avoids the situation entirely: his staff has decided to allow no reporters on his plane...
