President Nixon bowling at the White House Bowling Alley.  3/10/70.

The White House Bowling Alley first opened in 1947 while Harry S. Truman was in office.  In 1955, it was moved across the street to the Old Executive Building. 

Richard and Pat Nixon both enjoyed bowling, and so in 1969 they had a one-lane alley built beneath the North Portico using private funds.
