President Richard Nixon and his wife First Lady Pat Nixon discuss two young pandas that were given as gifts from the Chinese government during Nixon's historic trip to the People's Republic of China earlier that year. (NARA censors beeped out the majority of the conversation as "personal." All that was not beeped out is included here.)
