Description

Washington, D. C. Former President Harry S. Truman gags it up for photographers by sharping a knife for a slice of his 75th birthday cake. Truman won't be 75 until Friday but the Truman Diamond Jubilee Committee held a reception for him today. Truman cut the four-tiered cake as guests sang happy birthday. From: Houston Post.
