...enjoys cooking the duck, goose and turkey that he bags on shooting expeditions. He also likes to sew?a talent he picked up from his tailor-father. His dress runs to conservative dark suits.

Though his tall, ruggedly handsome figure is an undoubted contribution to the image of the ticket, his five-inch advantage over Humphrey will inevitably invite Mutt and Jeff caricatures...
