Scope and content
On October 18, 1956, President Dwight D. Eisenhower's motorcade traveled from his brother Edgar's American Lake home to the College of Puget Sound where he was scheduled to speak informally to an audience of 8,000. His motorcade route was planned to allow the greatest number of cheering spectators to view the President. One of the highlights was 100 Marymount Military Academy cadets in full uniform blowing bugles and presenting arms. The President was in Tacoma on a re-election campaign swing through the west.
