...United Press, and editors began making over their front pages. Jim Hagerty had done well; only two news-conference questions touched on areas that Hagerty had not anticipated. One was whether President Eisenhower planned to accompany Mamie to the May launching of the first nuclear surface ship at Camden, NJ. (Ike's answer: "I don't know anything about it.") The other was whether he planned to meet and discuss racial problems with New York's Negro Representative Adam Clayton Powell. (Answer: "I will have to look this one up.") In fact, Jim Hagerty's news...

His father Simon fled his native Posen (then in Germany) to escape conscription in 1855 and became a selfless country doctor in Camden, S.C. He served gallantly as a Confederate Army surgeon. Bernard's mother was a statuesque beauty with the pluck to forget that her father's fine plantation lay gutted behind Sherman's line of march.
