President Nixon, 1972

A young Rachel Lane, a dressed in a solid royal blue sequin baton twirling costume and carrying two batons, was captured by White House photographers during a parade in Atlanta in October 1972. Nixon and the First Lady were on the campaign trail ahead of the November 1972 election. Another majorette in a similiar costume and red vest was also catured grasping hands with First Lady Patricia Nixon. In the background of this photo is a twirler wearing a red, white and blue patriotic gauntlet.
