Senators Almost Getting Younger, Survey Of Upper House Reveals
Washington—(U.P.)—It's not true of any one member, but the United States Senate is growing younger.
Three senators are under 40 and only two over 80. The record books show 20 under 50 and only 15 over 70.
That figure is a tiny drop from two years ago, when the average was about 57.6. However, it's down almost a year from the 1947 average of slightly more than 58 years per senator.
The "world's most exclusive club" finds its average age slowly dropping although its members, like everybody else, get older every day.
The average age in the present Senate is only 57.45 despite the popular impression that the nation's highest legislative body is a bunch of old men.
only 33 despite three years of service in the upper chamber.
The age span covers 51 years—from Sen. Theodore Francis Green (D.-R.I.), the oldest at 84, to Sen. Russell B. Long (D.-La.) who is

Long, son of the late Huey P. (Kingfish) Long, was elected to the Senate one day before his 30th birthday in 1948, but was not sworn in until almost two months later.
A heavy crop of younger new members rather than attrition among the oldsters has brought the age average creeping down.

Although they live in the public eye, many senators are coy about publishing their ages. Of the 96 members, 16 do not list their ages in the congressional directory and two of them, Neely and Sen. Charles W. Tobey (R.-N.H.), don't even list them in Who's Who. Tobey is 71.
The names of American race horses are limited to 14 letters in order that they may fit easily on scoreboards and form sheets.
