Ok we all are familiar with the clutch pedal. However, what have we here?

The inauguration of President Herbert Hoover on March 4, 1929 was held up by two unlikely suspects. As the presidential party and other distinguished guests too...k their seats in the rain on the East Portico of the Capitol nearly everyone was accounted for. President-elect Hoover was joined by President Calvin Coolidge, the Cabinet, and Chief Justice William Howard Taft. The crowd stopped cheering, anticipating the start of the ceremony - but nothing happened. Suddenly, two women appeared at the back of the stand and took their places. First Lady Grace Coolidge (at left in today’s photo) and incoming First Lady Lou Hoover had lost track of time as they explored the galleries of the Capitol building! Good friends, the women spent the Inauguration Day together, riding over from the White House. After their arrival, the women continued their conversation and walked about while waiting for the ceremony to start. Unfortunately they lost track of time and got lost in the complex. Grace Coolidge remembered that she began to feel a little uneasy and finally I heard the Marine Band strike up ‘Hail to the Chief’ and I made a break and grabbed Mrs. Hoover saying ‘Come on, I’m going.’ We made a joke of it Well, of course, we arrived in due season, but we should have been there before.
