...Mary Jo; Rosemary Keough, 23; Maryellen Lyons, 27, and her sister Nance, 26; Esther Newberg, 26; and Susan Tannenbaum, 24. Besides Teddy, there were five men, longtime friends or retainers of the Kennedy clan: Jack Crimmins, 63, Kennedy's part-time chauffeur; Joseph Gargan, 39, Kennedy's cousin; Ray LaRosa, 41, a civil defense official and ex-fireman; Paul Markham, 39, a former U.S. Attorney; and Charles Tretter, 30, an attorney...
...priests also accused the mother of freewheeling Information Minister Hoang Due Nha, 32, a cousin of the President's and his closest confidant, of profiteering in sales of subsidized rice in the largely barren central coast. Police roughed up some of the Hue demonstrators, but to avoid triggering trouble elsewhere, they dispersed the crowd peacefully...
...women in the nation were scored by two remarkably different candidates, the first members of their sex to be nominated for statewide offices in Maryland. The Republican gubernatorial race was won by State Senator Louise Gore, 49, a throaty-voiced doyenne of Washington and Maryland society and a cousin of Tennessee's former Senator Albert Gore.

With the decline of the firm, copies of the Brahms sonata may have been overlooked until at last the so nata disappeared from view...
...some what like Kawabata's other works in its disregard of conventional plot, proceeding back and forth across time only by a logic of association.

In this claustrophobic reverie, Gimpei Momoi, a 34-year-old schoolteacher, a dim cousin of Nabokov's Humbert Humbert, disconsolately follows women, or schoolgirls, through the streets. Filled with a "masochistic self-disgust" that has its origins in his own deformed feet, Gim pei (which might almost be some accidental translingual pun - "Momoi the Gimp") is another of literature's repellent voyeurs...
