...John Kennedy's erstwhile competitors for the Democratic presidential nomination, Missouri's Stuart Symington has done the fastest fadeout from the public eye and from the Kennedy Administration plans.

So far, none has provided the hoped-for Hollywood fadeout to the Bocce story by discovering a great new singer.
