NAMES IN THE NEWS : Gov. Bayh Books Quiet Birthday
Indiana Gov. Evan Bayh, the nation’s youngest governor, spent a quiet 34th birthday here today, reading and relaxing away from his home state.
“I think the older you get, birthdays have less significance,” Bayh said of his lack of party plans. “And some people say, given my age, a few more birthdays could be helpful.” His big treat for the day was reading.
“I don’t have time to do much leisure reading,” Bayh told the Indianapolis Star. “I read three or four newspapers a day. My favorite subject is history. I have a backlog of 10 to 15 histories and biographies that I haven’t delved into yet.”
