...some legal argument that calling the Senator to testify would violate his constitutional rights in the event that the inquest were to lead to later criminal proceedings against him. The other witnesses will include the five girls and five other men who attended the cookout on Chappaquiddick. Arena will appear, as will Dr. Donald R. Wills, the Dukes County associate medical examiner, who pronounced Mary Jo's death an accidental drowning some eight or ten hours after Kennedy's sedan tum bled off the Dike Bridge...

In all, 1,050 operations were performed, with 50 or more surgeons taking part. Complicated open-heart techniques, including the implantation of artificial heart valves and pacemakers, were involved. Even so, the average cost to Medicare for each operation was roughly $380-a modest figure. All the money, said...
