INAUGURAL NOTES: An almost-winner of the 1960
election, and a close winner of the 1968 election, the former Vice
President and California Senator and Congressman had defeated the
Democratic Vice President, Hubert Humphrey, and the American Independent
Party candidate, George Wallace. Chief Justice Earl Warren administered
the oath of office for the fifth time. The President addressed the large
crowd from a pavilion on the East Front of the Capitol. The address was
televised by satellite.
