...sprawling garden suite at Boston's Ritz-Carlton Hotel one evening last week, Composer Fritz Loewe rippled at the piano while a companion paced and hummed. This was not Lerner and Loewe at work, but Loewe enjoying himself and TIME Senior Editor Henry Grunwald mixing work with some nostalgia. The Loewe-Grunwald repertoire: songs from Countess-Maritza and The Smiling Husband by the late Austrian Librettist, Alfred Grunwald, whom Composer Loewe knew back in Vienna more than 30 years ago, and who was Editor Grunwald's father. To his astonishment, Grunwald found that Loewe remembered more...

...practiced than Kennedy at endorsing all the local politicians, quick to freshen up his text with an impromptu reference (a Democratic campaign billboard in Pennsylvania last week caught his eye and gave him a handy introduction to a speech). Among the throngs of greeters (ably abetted by his constant companion, Pat Nixon), he is friendly and easy, shaking as many hands as are offered, stopping to chat frequently. Old folks, invalids and children get special attention. Nixon is always dignified and cool-he has never been caught in a really embarrassing situation-and, like Kennedy, he shrinks from war bonnets...
