Key Facts
President Reagan talks with 68 year old labor leader Alfred Antenucci who helped wrestle John Hinckley to the ground after the assassination attempt on the President.
President Reagan hosts a private dinner in honor of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Prince Charles.
This was the big night—our non-state, upstairs dinner for the Prince—32 in all. It was a great success & I feel everyone present had fun. We had 4 tables (of 8) in the family dining room after cocktails in the Oval room. Then back to the Oval room for music by Bobby Short & a special song by Sammy Kahn. Lady Henderson at dinner remarked about the great differences she saw in the W.H. since Nancy took over. She’s right Nancy has toiled tirelessly to bring some dignity & class to this Nat. Home and she’s succeeded magnificently.
