Most people are pretty we'll up
to date on Margaret Truman's
career as a singer, and the varied
activities of Franklin Roosevelt's
four sons and daughter.
But besides these recent White
House children, there are 19
sons and daughters of 9 other
Presidents of the last 50 years
very much alive and engaged in
a multitude of activities. Quite
a few have won Who's Who rat

posits all over the world for Gov

q few radio and electronic de-
vices which Mr.. Hoover con-
structed in his garage in 1884 to
a world-spanning enterprise with
1000 employees doing an annual
business of ST million.
In the early 1930s he fought q
bout with tuberculosis, but at At
he looks athletic and fit. He and
his wife have three grown chill
