A young Grover Cleveland during his days as a hangman?


RE: Presidents and First Ladies Trivia - Gene C - 05-05-2014 03:35 PM

Theodore Roosevelt?


RE: Presidents and First Ladies Trivia - Anita - 05-05-2014 05:28 PM

I agree with Gene. It's Teddy R.


RE: Presidents and First Ladies Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 05-05-2014 06:00 PM

Smart guess, Roger, but kudos to Gene and Anita, it is indeed TR!

It's from the Harvard library website, and the cutline says:
"Theodore Roosevelt in a sculling outfit at Harvard around 1877. As a child, Roosevelt suffered from asthma. His father recommended physical activity to build his endurance, and Roosevelt developed a lifelong dedication to exercise."

Gene and Anita, you win an original TR sports outfit to follow suit. This was TR's daily warm-up:

Very nice, too, and sure as effective. I'll add a pair of knee- and ellbow pads to your prize.


RE: Presidents and First Ladies Trivia - Anita - 05-06-2014 11:55 AM

Thanks Eva. Gene answered first but I'm happy to accept a prize.

This resembles my warm up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3U8pAM4VXvI

Millard Filmore?


RE: Presidents and First Ladies Trivia - RJNorton - 05-15-2014 06:52 AM

Excellent guess, Joe, but it's not Fillmore.


RE: Presidents and First Ladies Trivia - J. Beckert - 05-15-2014 06:56 AM

James Garfield?


RE: Presidents and First Ladies Trivia - RJNorton - 05-15-2014 07:21 AM

You nailed it, Joe. Kudos.
